Honestly I respected Lance Storm for what he did in ECW, WCW ,WWE and his other work (such as his match in RoH) because he is one of the best in the business and very knowledgeable but I don't understand why he constantly bashes TNA as said above some matches from the start of Ring Of Honor for thrown together and promos weren't that good ,not alot can cut promos in RoH , Only people who can pull of some very good promos were Punk , Joe, Danielson and now I think I only really see interest in Jimmy Jacobs and Kevin Steen when they cut promos, and Lance really shouldn't be talking since he wasn't the best on the mic either but Kishi, Fatu,Thong wearing Fattie w/e you want to call him is gone so no more complaints.

Lance picks on TNA because they are supposed to be the number 2 Promotion in North America. And he said at the start of the article that he wasn't the best promo guy but he still knows the components necissary to have a good or bad promo. Hell, any fan sitting at home knows what to expect from a promo. They are trying to sell you something and a fan knows when a promo was dull or ineffective. So you or I could have also pointed out what Lance Storm said but it would be less effective as Lance has been in the business and you and I haven't... Lance knows what's best as he's been in WCW and ECW (two companies that failed) and WWE (The current #1) So I think he knows a thing or two about how a company should be doing and how to improve. Lance doesn't pick on TNA because he has some personal vendetta against TNA or because he is still secretely employed by the WWE and his mission is to slander TNA with good points about the product that are correct. Lance does these columns about TNA every once in a while because TNA is the Number 2 promotion in North America but only because no one else is around. Lance wants improvement, just like all the fans at home. He demands improvement. Unlike alot of us, he can see the flaws without any kind of bias. |

i love it how the only negative comments people have on storm is his own charisma...to be honest i never needed the wrestler to be overflowing with charisma. shamrock, benoit, and storm were all so intense they didn't need to talk.

You said you didn't understand why Storm bashes TNA and then went on a rant about RoH. What was your point, again? 2. When RoH started they had a roster full of guys who were completely unknown to the mainstream fans. Besides, they didn't need great programs between two workers because they had GREAT MATCHES between two workers. More often than not, even with a far better roster than WWE, TNA can't pull off either. |

You Know what your right but what I was really trying to point out is Ring Of Honor has its Faults , as does TNA so that was my point but I have nothing else to say you make a good point they should really be pulling off better mathces with the roster they have. |

For Rikishi who is a vet, for him to cut a promo that completely buries his opponent and match is very stupid.
Not to mention TNA is taking a lot of critisim because they care claiming something they've yet to prove

Maybe because ECW had a Different Style of Wrestling the US Public never saw before??And the fact that the 90's is WAYYY Different to our times now seals the deal, Do you honestly think that something new can be done in Wrestling? We've basically seen it all before, at Least TNA gets the Wrestling part right, Which is what most Viewers watch it for. ... If ECW had something Viewers had never seen before, then why wouldn't TNA do something smart... just for once? Because last time I checked I started watching TNA for the X - Division, and I'm sure most people that watch TNA did too. But no instead TNA is trying to be like WWE and use heavyweights, when they should focus more on their own talent, the original talent. Not hire old washed up WWE rejects. |

More than that, they've got washed-up WWE talent completely decimating the one thing that was supposed to make TNA different. |

Well isn't the Heavyweight Division the most Important ones? Cause it is for the Majority of Wrestling Fed's, So you'd want guys Wrestling in the Mid-Card in Feds to be more Exposed than the Main Event Card guys? Wtf are you on... |

Lance Storm cut a hell of a promo before his match in ROH better than 90% of the ones I see on TNA.
Not bad for someone everyone claims has "no charisma"
