Why end it in a brutal Cage Match at their "WrestleMania", as Ric Flair calls it? Then we wouldn't have gotten Chyna botching and performing a DDT-like maneuver for $34.95 on Pay-Per-View!
Of course it needs to keep going, even after months of Television which has now been, in theory, recognized as not good enough to progress the company from what they currently are.

honestly, this show sounds pretty dang good. hopefully the Anderson segment doesn't drag. but we've still got Tommy Dreamer & Bully Ray vs. Christopher Daniels & AJ Styles, Abyss vs. Brian Kendrick and  ing Kurt Angle vs. RVD. plus, more of the X-Division revival storyline. |

its only been almost less than 6 months. like, Jarrett is simply Angle's arch enemy. its good sh*t. its actually about time we got a long feud, they're so rare now and days. If you want to be technical, their feud (minus Karen's involvement) started in 08. |

People are misunderstanding "Wrestling Matters." The whole show won't be wrestling.
There are SIX matches on this show. More than Raw anyway. Sure, not much from Young's match, but we get Kurt Angle versus Rob Van Dam. Then the tag team street fight with AJ and Daniels teaming again is awesome. Seems like a good show to me.

Sure, not much from Young's match, but we get Kurt Angle versus Rob Van Dam. Then the tag team street fight with AJ and Daniels teaming again is awesome. Seems like a good show to me. People are not misunderstanding it, unless you count the people running TNA. Impact Wrestling was and will be the exact same show as TNA iMPACT!, just with a different color scheme! I will applaud TNA when they defeat every WWE Television show and Webcast in terms of in-ring time. They're saying Wrestling Matters to them, yet the first two weeks with the Thunder set-up they open with long promos! How is that telling me Wrestling matters? How is ERIC BISCHOFF being in the longest Match on the hard launch of Impact Wrestling telling me they care about Wrestling? TNA is a ing joke that cannot overcome themselves, and have tried everything to justify having the people they do on the payroll. They put out billboards by Stamford, Connecticut. Yes, that's right, they spent probably a good chunk of money to put of posters and billboards by WWE Headquarters saying "Wrestling Matters". So let's see, who cared about Wrestling the most, this week. WWE RAW (Hates Wrestling) in-ring time: 31:21
WWE NXT (Hates Wrestling/Is a joke) in-ring time: 11:53
WWE Superstars (Hates Wrestling) in-ring time: 22:04
Impact Wrestling (WRESTLING Matters) in-ring time: 20:55
WWE SmackDown (Hates Wrestling) in-ring time: 43:48. So there we have it. TNA, who is making this about WWE's new direction, had more WRESTLING than only NXT, one of WWE's biggest failures ever. They got doubled by SmackDown for in-ring time! Now, where TNA doesn't look as bad is that RAW most likely had a fair amount of their Matches cut due to being live and having commercials, where the taped shows most likely cut out for a minute before they act like they've been gone for three-minutes. So maybe not counting commercials, Impact Wrestling beat RAW, but that's a statistic I can't find. I couldn't care less how many Matches are on a show, as long as the Matches they do have are good and given the right amount of time! RAW could have three Matches, but if one goes 25-minutes and the others go six, and they're good, I would be happy, just like I would if Impact Wrestling WWMBWM did that. Even if the idea of re-branding everything in the company is to highlight that they say "Wrestling" a lot, then that's still a stupid move because nearly every WWE show since the "New WWE" was announced has had someone saying "Wrestle", "Wrestling" and/or "Wrestler". |

Okay? WWE brings in old people all the time, this is hardly something to bash TNA over in a one off segment. Sheesh, grow up people. Does any of that actually compare to DISCO INFERNO? Especially considering he had a twenty minute promo. Adding he had it with THE most annoying person I've seen in quite some time. Only thing I'm looking forward to is Angle vs. RVD Same here. oh and  How did I not notice this post earlier? BV, you're the best  |

Secondly, from what I understand, it just aired and it wasn't 20 minutes long. |

Did everyone who got mad and laughed and moaned about this segment see it? It was about 10 minutes and was actually pretty good. Disco Inferno's "return" was hyped and jeered as if he were showing up to main event a pay per view or something. It turned out to be one of the better segments on the show.
