Funny, Undertaker came in the WWE under some sorta of control by the urn, held by Paul Bearer. I guess TNA can't have a storyline like that because it's TNA. I enjoy the storyline as well. It's interesting to say the least. Urn =/= drugs. Why does it matter which object it is that's controlling someone? Drugs make a hell of a lot more sense than an Urn would with mind control. And has it been mentioned that drugs were used to control Angelina? I have a feeling that word was used, but it could be potion/spell or something. Considering her character those would make sense. |

When was the last time Undertaker was under the control of the Urn? Mid 90s? This is 2011. So now she's Papa Shango? |

Why not? Drug use is touched on by a million and a half different TV shows. It's not like they're promoting it. How the person who posted this had Jeff Hardy in their signiture. ;D Just because I enjoy his work doesn't mean I think it's a smart business move to make the guy champion.  |

You guys were comparing the storyline to The Undertaker. And for some reason it's okay for the Undertaker to have a supernatural storyline but not the women of TNA? And there's no reason it shouldn't happen, and try something new in the female wrestling world. Since shows like Twilight, Supernatural, True Blood are popular now, it seems like the perfect time to at least 'try' a storyline like this. Does that mean it will be a great storyline that will captivate the audience? no, but they could if they put a lot of thought into it and have it play out in an interesting way. |

Again, most of the supernatural stuff was in the 90s. The only 'supernatural' things I can think of him doing in the past like 6 or 7 years is having a ring collapse and showing up after the lights go out. Then they should bring in Vampires. It'd be different if they were making Winter out to be some cult leader and she was doing it to more than just one woman. But Angelina would then just be a follower of Winter and not in some bizarre state with that one expression on her face. |

Boring storyline that is unrealistic, which is something I'd rather not see any of in Wrestling, but especially in "We're not stupid like Up North" TNA who are now managing to lose ratings with a Knockouts Match between Velvet and Angelina.
Worst of all, it's forced us to see close-up's of Angelina Love's face, which is just, no.

The only time I remember that happening was when Big Show and Brock came off the top rope. That wasn't supernatural.. Unless there was another time that I can't remember. What would you call a character like The Boogeyman, Mordecai and then his vampire gimmick, The Undertaker in general. They're all characters that are a stretch of the average idea of what a character should be. Just what TNA needs to do, bring in a group of vampires so WWE fans could say they're ripping of The Brood. We really don't know what Winter is right now. We know she's controlling for Angelina, but for what purpose. It all depends on where it leads before it stays strong or fails. |

Taker collapsed the ring with Angle inside of it.
I call those gimmicks stupid though there wasn't anything supernatural about them.
Then if it's like Taker and the urn, they are already ripping off the WWE. But if they stopped doing things that ripped off the WWE, they'd be in trouble. If the WWE stopped doing things that ripped themselves off, they'd be in trouble.
They can do vampires especially now that they are hot.
They need to do more than just her controlling Angelina and Velvet trying to get Angelina away.

Also, comparing this storyline to Jeff Hardy doesn't really work because they're not painting drugs as a good thing or anything. They're saying they've turned Angelina into a zombie who takes orders to hurt her friend. Doesn't scream drug promotion to me. |

Taker couldn't just go back to being controlled by the urn after a decade away from it. I'm not comparing it to Jeff. I'm saying it's wrong for them to do a drugging storyline right after the Hardy thing. |

Undertaker hasn't been controlled by the urn since Paul turned on him for Mankind. Since that point, it's only been used as a source of additional power to Undertaker. It's no different then when Hulk uses the fans to "hulk up", except it's an urn.
Completely different than when the Urn controlled Undertaker.
