Holy shit, Nash/Booker on commentary for that one night or so was amazing. Comedic gold. Also look down Nash's paparazzi productions stuff with TNA.

Nash in general put in a lot more work in TNA than he did the last 2 1/2 years of WCW. I also enjoyed his return to WWE in 2002-2003. There is a Rock/Nash match from Smackdown that is on the Network that has him with his working boots on.
Tweet would be a lot better if he actually won his feud instead of getting one win and then appledough burial

I'll definitely need to find Nash/Booker on commentary although a cursory YouTube search shows nothing. I've seen some of his paparazzi productions stuff before and it is genius as expected.
you're god damn right I'm ready

Definitely. He seemed to just be having fun in TNA. Especially since he had maybe like.. 2 matches back then..? Genuinely funny guy. He also gave us Black Machismo

Smh and to think it was suppose to be the year of Nick Fuckin Gage.
I've said this before and I'll say it again. I want TNA to go out of business and I want WWE to buy them, even if they have to slightly overpay.
1. Gives more footage for the network/dvd sales because a lot of their stars did put in time in TNA.
2. I'd love to see all of TNA with good quality video and well organized.
3. I'd love Vince to do it just to keep it out of the hands of Double J because he's still salty about being held up for money from him.

You also get what is essentially ten or so years of Sting's career that doesn't exist in WWE canon.

He has a shockingly good match with Double J. The one that has guitars banned, so Jeff uses a cello lol. It's so much better than anything they did together in WCW. And his match with Sabin. And Joe. Nash's TNA run was probably better than any ex-WWE/ECW/WCW guy besides Christian, Sting, and Angle. Which is crazy, because TNA has always been the land where former stars coast to get a pay check. Yet Nash actually put in the effort there. TNA, of all places.

Winner winner.
Taco, you can piss and moan all night about some imaginary rose tinted glasses and Nash being considered great. But it ain't true. It ain't happening. Neh eh! So replace the letter N with T and R, and you got your new reality. I'll see you in Trashvember.

You're a really hard man to respect. You seem very angry, bitter, and hateful.

I'm still pissed that Stingtember never happened.
I'm sure Carnby would try his best to shit in the punch bowl for that, too.

Did they ever give a reason why The Authority wanted Seth Rollins at all? Or why they hate Cena?
Carnby

Irresponsibly hateful.
If I remember correctly it was because he was the architect of the Shield but as for specifics, they didn't (as far as I remember lol). (Going into Fanfic mode a little bit here) I guess they were impressed with how successful the group was and that he was smart enough to pick the people most suited for those certain positions . As for the Cena hate... Idk maybe they hate/are against anime or something?

I can buy that but I don't get why they've stuck with him since he's mostly if not completely incompetent. In retrospect they should have gone with Reigns and done the obvious Batista build.
You know who else didn't do movez well?
I thought he was pretty good when he was in his prime or younger.
I watched a MSG show on the network and he seemed pretty good.

1. Brock Lesnar (c) vs. Roman Reigns - Brock
2. Sting vs. Triple H - Sting
3. André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal - Damien Mizdow
4. Bad News Barrett (c) vs. R-Truth vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Luke Harper vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Stardust vs. Daniel Bryan - Ambrose
5. Rusev (c) vs. John Cena - Cena
6. AJ Lee and Paige vs. The Bella Twins - LOL
7. The Undertaker vs. Bray Wyatt - Wyatt
8. Randy Orton vs. Seth Rollins - Rollins
I'm a bad rassleman.

They don't want to abandon a project they've put so much time and effort into, I guess. Reigns would have been an interesting choice for sure.

You know what, that makes a lot of sense. H was desperate to break up the Shield and took the lowest one he could find, doesn't want to look bad having backed the wrong horse. I'm down with it.

I'm pretty sure what Cena said this past Raw - that Rollins, despite being "DA ARCHITECT", was the only one stupid, egotistical, and short-sighted enough to drink The Authority's Kool-Aid - is the reason. The Authority's whole thing is a desire to control who has the belt so as to direct business in the way they want, and Rollins was a young, marketable-looking guy who was amoral enough to be okay with cheating and conniving to achieve that end. Dean and Roman are both too proud and too driven to be okay with having titles and honors handed to them, whereas Rollins just wants to be validated, even if it's for bullshit. Triple H was a heel champion who didn't mind using his friends to hold onto the title, so he respects Rollins being a cheating paper champion.
I think they hate Cena because Cena is so successful and so "good for business" but refuses to be controlled by them or play by their rules. He also has no fear of disrespecting them.

Vince couldn't have been happy about this.
Support helicopters that play your own custom music (no matter how nonsensical/out of place it is) is one of the dumbest best things ever.
If they gave him a push similar to what Batista received years ago, then I might've been more receptive of Reigns.
Reigns is a great heel and I wish they'd turn him already
they won't because of those bulling PSAs
The least they should do is get him out of that fucking vest and shield shit
Shield is dead Reigns
everyone else moved on.

What the hell guys?
I thought next month was David Otungber
What about Rasta Reigns?
Change the theme. Stop walking in through the crowd. Appear on the ramp and punch the ground BOOM pyro. Wear a glove like Diesel so you can sell gloves to fans and you can high five people who wear the glove like Nash did. #Money

Today, on "Quack is an ass":
Fenix cursed during Team AAA's KOT match tonight. At intermission everybody but Fenix was selling merch (he had it out temporarily but removed it and looked pissed about doing so). Fans recognized what was going on and started chanting what he said in protest/solidarity, and were kicked out for doing so
Literal timeout

And this is also why Big Show never took off. Never looked strong, never looked big, could never tell a story. Everyone under the sun wanted him to be the next Andre and no one, especially Big Show, understood what that entails.

The battle for Carny of the Year is going to be really intense.
I think we are going to need more than one award.
