Being used to it doesnt make it any easier, every WWE PPV i and other Ukers get to very VERY early in the morning, every UK TNA fan who doesnt watch streams has to wait untill Wednesday to see it, what im saying is one night for you wont be that difficult. Oh.. so you want to screw up TNA's business because it "won't be difficult"? They will fly all their event staff, wrestlers, the ring, production stuff, stage set up, and get a building. They draw a good number over there say 4,000-5,000 that covers some of it but they'll have to make up for it in buyrates. Which won't be a good number due to them airing it at a bad time. I'm looking at it from a business tandpoint really - it's a stupid thing to run a PPV over tehre especially BFG. When did I ever say ANYTHING about buisness, you said WHERE do you want BFG to be held? Nothing about buisness, I simply stated UK and then my reasons for that answer.

Do you people have any concept of timezones?.. If TNA held a PPV over here and started it at 8 or 9PM, and if they were simultaneously showing it live in the US and Canada, then it would begin at 3 or 4PM EST - you wouldn't have to stay up late, at all.. UK is five hours ahead - not five hours behind.. LMAO, yea i want the PPV in the UK because "we can." I want it for the same reason you do, to see BFG in my country. Why do I want to see BFG in my country? That makes no freaking sense. EVERY TNA PPV is in my country.. Yeah, that's the point - we'd like to see one held over here..

What it all boils down to, is it's fine that you answered the question of WHERE you WANT it to be. But then when we claim it most likely won't, because of the time zones... you get all pissy.

I'm not saying they won't you give you a PPV. But, to give you the BIGGEST PPV of the YEAR would be a stupid thing to do. It kills the chance of a mega-buyrate. LMAO BFG V is gonna get outshined by probably slammiversary and mega buyrates, your joking right "Oh.. so you want to screw up TNA's business because it "won't be difficult"? They will fly all their event staff, wrestlers, the ring, production stuff, stage set up, and get a building. They draw a good number over there say 4,000-5,000 that covers some of it but they'll have to make up for it in buyrates. Which won't be a good number due to them airing it at a bad time." Theyre on a Europe tour during October so itd be real easy

It's already been explained to you clearly that if they did the PPV here at 9pm, you guys would get it live at around 6pm. Whats wrong with that? I bet you watch hockey games or football games at that time, live. What really boils down to is how ignorant americans are.

Seriously, you guys are basically saying "I'm from the UK. We deserve a PPV beause we only got one". That's like me saying Savannah, Georgia needs a PPV because they haven't had one. For the MILLIONTH time - I'm not saying the UK doesn't deserve anything. I'm saying that it's a bad business decision to run the BIGGEST PPV TNA has in the UK. Run No Surrender over there or do a UK Global iMPACT over there to test the waters. It would be stupid to do BFG from the UK. LtD73 - Why are you complaining? I mean really - why can't you come over to the states to go to a PPV? OH wait a minute.. YOU ARE. What's it matter where you see a TNA PPV if you want to see one? Seriously.

You have to reliaze something (that apperantly you don't). Wrestling's a business. If you're going to drop a crap-load of money to run an event somewhere you better make sure you can make it back - which they can't with ONE show. That's why I'm saying they can film a special during their next tour over there.

But there is no reason to stop us from having any other ppv, which is exactly what Triple S is arguing about. Thats all i'm trying to point out. Using the time-zone argument is incredibly weak. He is being incredibly ignorant.

Go find me the post where I said it wouldn't - go freaking find it. I never said it wouldn't be a success, so don't put words in my mouth (or fingers.. whatever). I'm saying they wouldn't make up the money they spent with that ONE show listen to me. I never said I don't people's opinions, dude. Never said that. I started mine and just because It's not "UK RULES GIVE THEM A PPV" you got all pissy with me and Triple S because we didn't agree with you. The UK wants a PPV fine, let TNA run it and when it loses more money than they made see if y'all get another one. Jesus. How are we being ignorant?

He is being incredibly ignorant. I don't mind the UK having a PPV at all. I just don't think it needs to be now nor does it need to be BFG- so, they had two sucessful tours. So? They've had sucessful tours in New York - why can't BFG be there? They've had sucessful shows in Georgia - why can't BFG be there again? The bullcrap "we had sucessful shows" agruement is just ignorant aswell. That's why I suggested (on more than one ocasion) the TV special.

Oh yeah, this deserves to be locked now. This was going all fine and dandy and then you got your underwear in a bunch and got all pissy. We're the ignorant ones yet you're telling me to off? How mature dude. This could've kept going all nice & a nice little discussion but you took the cheap way out and decided "Hey, it's the internet lets be a dickhead" and start dropping the f-word. So, fine. You'll get your wish. It'll be locked - congrats. You're getting a thread on a forum locked. Have a cookie. Also, I never said you said that dude.. it's called an exaggeration.
