Hogan's treating the company like it was sh*t before he came in and it bugs the out of me because I really enjoyed TNA's 2009 product. Impact was my 2nd favorite wrestling show (behind ECW) and now it's quickly falling down to the bottom because every show is just a collection of things that happen with no connection from week to week. And glossing over the spoilers for the next show or two only re-enforce this. Give me a show 'booked' by Kevin Nash like last month over shows featuring the Nasty Boys and Orlando Jordan in prominent roles.

I agree with guys like the Nastys and Orlando Jordan. However, i'd say give it time. For some reason, I still have high hope that these guys are going to be used to put over the TNA original talent.
I honestly think Daniels is eventually going to go over Morley in they're feud.

I really don't have a problem with TNA at the moment. I don't read spoilers but all I have seen is Orlando Jordan once on the 4th and it looks like the Nasty Boys aren't really going to be doing anything big. As far as everything else it's all wait and see at this point. Nothing too off the wall has happened thus far to really warrant any negative views from me. My only complaint is I WANT MORE JAY LETHAL.

All I'm going to say, I think I've completely lost any faith whatsoever in TNA....

When you tried to get everyone hype about Kennedy being a big signing it shows the company is getting sad.

I am actually enjoying TNA for the first time. I have tried to watch in the past but that schmuck Don West, convoluted and unfinished storylines and crazy and confusing gimmick matches just made it hard to get into.
It seems that it kind of coming together now.
But honestly, what the hell do I know? I have only been watching since 1/6 when I caught the 1/4 replay.

TNA had all the intentions in the world of signing Hardy, i'm sure. But TNA did get what they needed out of having Hardy appear on iMPACT! that night... publicity. People were talking about it everywhere. On this board, the WWE board. Every dirtsheet there is was getting news on whether Jeff Hardy signed with TNA or not.
I think TNA is also a little hesitant on bringing him in, considering he could be in prison for a bit, in a short time. Would have been a bad move if they signed him, debuted him at Genesis ( or whatever ), then come March... he's locked up.

I'm really beginning to miss TNA from 2009. Judging by the spoilers for the next few weeks, iMPACT! isn't as good as it was. I hate how they pretty much rebooted the company. I was liking were they were going with Kevin Nash and World Elite and now they've just dropped that in favour of "The Band" and Jeremy Borash has been replaced by Bubba The Love Sponge.. There really is no words to describe it.

I'm not to keen on Nash's booking While TNA isnt showcasing their young tlaent as mcuh, it isnt a complete burial, and it is at least bringin in some names that are capturing interest. That said, the flow of the show at least at Genesis seems better, but they still have alot to work on with these storylines. I'm more willing after the 1/14 show to give TNA some time so we'll see how it pans out. However, already i think the AJ heel turn is a bad move.

TNA in 2005-mid 2006 was my favourite time, but as with everything, time will tell what the go will be...

There really is no words to describe it. Precisely. The reboot is an insult to all of their fans, the ones who have all the TNA DVD's and actually order their PPV's. It's the same stupid sh*t WCW did in 2000.

See, this is where (in my opinion) alot of fans are going to prove they're just hypocritical (not anyone in this thread spefically just in general. Basically a rant on people who are now on the "SCREW CHANGE!" bandwagon) First, people complained about how TNA didn't look like a "real wrestling company" but now they do. The stage, the ramp, the ring, the over-all look and now everyone is complaining about the change. Was I on board with the loss of the 6-Sided Ring? No, but after "Genesis" - I"m fine with it. You can't have it both ways. Either, you want them to look like a "real wrestling company" or you don't but don't say "They look horrible!" and when they change it for the better, you hate it. Second, no connection from week to week? 1/4 we see D'Angelo Dinero get a win over Desmond Wolfe, the next show Wolfe faces Joe with Wolfe on commentary, they have a match at Genesis which sees Wolfe go over. Connection from week to week right there. Styles/Angle, Beer Money/The Band, Flair/Styles/Angle, Jarrett/Hogan/Bischoff/Foley, JB being pulled off TV for the stuff with Mick, etc. The connection is there, more than it has been in the past. Third, you are judging shows on the spoilers? More importantly, from the fans that were crying foul because TNA told them to slack off the swear? Wait until Thursday, watch the show and then go from there and if you don't like what you see then complain. Don't judge it off of spoilers as spoilers aren't that detailed alot of the time. I just think a lot of people don't like change but who does? TNA has to change to grow. And in all honesty, I'm pro-change in TNA which is saying a lot considored everyone on this forum knows I'm a TNA mark. Hogan's been in charge for not even a month, give him (and TNA) time. I'm not saying anyone is wrong nor am I bashing anyone's opinion, just saying what I feel. --- I'm really beginning to miss TNA from 2009. Judging by the spoilers for the next few weeks, iMPACT! isn't as good as it was. I hate how they pretty much rebooted the company.

It's the same stupid sh*t WCW did in 2000. I'm not insulted at all and I'm the type of fan you just described. But, I'm sure someone will find a way to twist it up and say "Oh, of course you're not. You love everything TNA does".

Isnt that being hypocritical or you dont call it that when it pertains to you. Why can't people just change their mind from time to time, is there a law against that?

SG, you are going to love TNA no matter what. And that's whatever. More power to you. But I've posted here a lot the last few months and I think it was pretty obvious I was a big fan of the product. And my TNA DVD collection is nearly complete. And I was okay with Hogan coming in because I thought he really wanted to improve upon the solid foundation TNA already had. But instead he's only concerned with changing things to the way that pleases him, not the fans. And all of the talent that busted their asses are getting buried in favor of re-treads who are past their prime.
Rebooting was the kind of thing that killed any remaining credibility WCW had.

I didn't say there was a law against it. I love the new set up in the iMPACT Zone as it looks ten times better. I didn't say people couldn't change their mind, as I changed mine, but it's not just about the ring. I used the arena change as an example of people being hypocritical.

Their talent isn't getting buried. AJ went over Angle, Beer Money went over "The Band" who TNA hyped up like it was the second coming, Red went over Kendrick, Anderson had to CHEAT to beat Abyss which to me put over Abyss because it was like Kennedy knew he couldn't beat him without cheating. I don't get how TNA talent is getting buried, I don't see it at all.
