On the WWE board I see loads of WWE sucks and TNA is better.
Can you guys explain to me why that is? I can't even sit through 1 TNA match to be honest.
I first discovered TNA in the fall of 04 right after I graduated from High School. It was just on in the middle of the day on FSN. I was immediately was attracted to it. Jeff Hardy Road Dogg (BG James), K-Kwik (Ron "The Truth" Killings), Jeff Hardy, Konnan, Raven all kind of names I knew were somewhere other than WWE and on TV. And I was digging the TNA guys like Abyss, AJ Styles, Alex Shelly, Chris Sabin, Monty Brown, the X-Division.
Then the Dudleyz and Christian showed up, TNA was awesome for awhile. Then enter Kurt Angle, after he showed up and made the entire show about him, it started to become more and more like WCW. They seem to even be recycling WCW's storylines (MEM/Millionaire's Club). And they pick up just about every WWE recent release. I haven't seen them put too much time spotlight on the X-division like they used to. I could see at one point saying that TNA was on WWE's level and on the verge of being actual competition but then it started to slowly go down hill.
How is TNA right now better than WWE? I'm not saying that WWE is the best right now. I fast forward through some matches that have boring storylines, but I could sit though a WWE show and be entertained 75% of the time. TNA hasn't done that for me for awhile.

It's all a matter of opinion. In some ways, you could like one product so much that you don't see the flaws. Which happens a lot. I think a lot fo people would agree, after TNA's last PPV compared to WWE's last PPV (NOC), WWE looks to be in better shape. But as said before, thats one mans opinion.

Yup, Pro Wrestling is as subjective as music. I personally like TNA much better.

I prefer TNA, WWE is becoming PG where they are getting a bit too boring to watch, while TNA is having better storylines with the Mafia and Jarrett/Foley

From reading spoilers TNA is picking up, but it's still atrocious to watch. I think Claudio Castagnoli put it best, "the Jenna/Sharmell match makes pro wrestling fans embarrassed to be fans". That match was the worst part of arguably the worst PPV I've seen in years. If people were really as big of wrestling fans as they claim to be, you would really hate all of this because you would have watched it all happen before in WCW. If TNA gets better, great. But their show is ridiculous. I want TNA to get big, WWE needs someone nipping at them. They're doing the exact same thing as WCW. All these talented guys on the lower show with the old guys on top. It's not pretty.

I still think it's unfair to compare the two companies. TNA has a two hour programme a week, and even with that, we're lucky to get 20 minutes of wrestling out of that. WWE gives us 6 hours of programming a week, with four hours being extremely well put together in my opinion (ECW, Smackdown, Superstars)

I think he means "Rosie" vs "Trump". Honestly, still not as bad though. TNA booked that match on a PPV not their weekly TV show. |

I can't stand it when people try to say something IS better. It's all just opinion. I could go on all day trying to tell someone TNA is better but I could never prove it.

I'm not a fan of either at the moment. Mainstream professional wrestling has not been so good in a long time, in my opinion.

I tried watching TNA the other day and it was just beyond terrible. There was like 2 matches and they were decent at best. WWE is PG yes but they are still doing a hell of a lot better then TNA

Long live the Mid 90's - Early 2000's No, I very well could. Each company is just going through some horrific booking; TNA more than WWE in my opinion. |

I'm more of a tna fan than a wwe fan, as I watch TNA more, but right now TNA sucks monkey dong! period. It comes and goes on WWE, they have hit and miss shows, TNA has hit and miss months. This month is deplorable. I cant even begin to describe how much they've f'd up from one ppv to the next. For a company trying so hard to be competitive, they do the same exact things that buried WCW years ago. I've been enjoying WWE much more lately since TNA sux so much. It was nice to watch a decent ppv last nite without wanting to kill myself after every match.
