TNA Champion Kurt Angle made some questionable comments in a recent interview with VideoGamer.com. Below are some highlights:
When asked if he was confident that fans would pick TNA Impact! over WWE SmackDown vs. RAW Angle said:
"No I'm not confident that will happen. I believe in the long run we will end up selling more than they will. But I believe the fans will pick Smackdown first, they will try it out and then they'll go back and they will pick TNA Impact! up and they'll try it and say "wow I shouldn't have bought Smackdown". What's going to happen is after the first round of people buy they're going to call their friends and say TNA Impact! is so much better than Smackdown, get that.
Angle went on to say that it will take awhile but they will eventually destroy the new SmackDown game:
"During the first week I don't think we're going to win the war. I think within a month we're going to be crushing them in the war. So it's just going to take a couple of weeks for everybody to realize that we have the better game."
The interviewer asks Kurt why it may take a month for Impact to pass the WWE game. His answer was:
"It's just that right now WWE is slightly beating us in the TV ratings and they are going to have the advantage because they've had experience."

...slightly?
Three times Impact's rating is "slightly?"

Why does everyone post stuff like this and then compare them to WWE? Almost all of the TNA Board posts are about how stupid TNA is, well don't come on the oard then!

Considering they have every right to come on these boards and express their opinions, positive or not. People that bitch about people bitching, are even worse than those that are bitching in the first place. As for Angle, he knows who's ass to kiss and when... he's a company man. - Triple S

well technically if you're talking about tna and ecw then yeah maybe you could see where he's coming from.
also it's an interview, what he said could be completely taken out of context or mis-reported. or he could be suffering the effects of a joe right hand. but that's completely open to interpretation.

I agree with what he said on the impact game.It looks so good, I'm thinking about pre ordering it and trading smackdown in as soon as I get it.

Then maybe a bitch and whine about bitchers and whiners thread. ;D

because hes not a jackass that thinks TNA is the best company in the world, and doesn't think that everything they do is the best thing ever.
He actually has a brain obviously, unlike most of the people that post in this board.
And if anyone thinks that TNA is slightly beating TNA they are off their meds.
