i think he will. he was supposed to feud with Jeff Hardy but stupid vince thinks leakage ruins everything so he changed it up but i think withintime Christian will rise to main event status and i think the MITB is a perfect time for him. i think he'll slowly rise up like how jericho did.

[ovatyme316]

I was shocked to hear this news.

R.I.P. Test

 

[the minister]

any word on how test died or is it still to early?

 

[mr whomp whomp]

Only way I see Captain C getting a world title is if the E gets hit with another injury bug similar to a couple years ago when Khali had the gold

 

[nikestreetdotcom]

Wow. That interview was great. Everything he said was on point.

christian would be a great champ as a heel and wwe knows hes better off a heel, so in due time he will turn into that....

lets say he wins the MITB (god i hope MVP doesnt) he will go to smackdown in the draft...

smackdown is gonna take a big hit, because most of the superstars are gonna be on raw and i expect rey mysterio and john cena to go to smackdown and pl liketriple h and edge to go to raw....
so smackdown is gonna need a big time heel, and captain C would be perfect, also cashing in his mitb win against cena

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Christian needs to win MITB and then get back with Edge.

 

[laced up jordans]

I'm tellin yall, all of yall are hyping what Christian will be. Im on of his supporters, but look at the pops he gets and how crowded the belt situation isright now. IC title at best

Same thing as Jericho when he returned. Christian will have to reinvent himself or modify his character. He has the tools to do this, and can become very successful ala Jericho.

 

[CHICHAN]

What the hell is the difference between iMPACT and PPVs for TNA? The matches so far suck suck suck suck suck suck.

 

[CHICHAN]

Wow okay, so Cornette restarts the Beer Money/3D match as a no dq, then Beer Money just leaves the ring? I'm upset.

 

[CHICHAN]

Anybody but Shelley should win this. If not, what a waste of time.

QFT, I feel bad for people that pay to watch this garbage..

 

[sidewayze]

Why does TNA keep saying Angle has 12 World Titles?!? He only has 8.

it is a joke to watch it...

but blame vince russo, the head of the creative team...
he was fired by wwe, then he went to wcw and brought down wcw with those stupid storylines(like david arquette being the world champ)
when tna fires him, then maybe they can reinvent themselves, that and get rid of that stupid octagon ring

 

[INTLplayers]

I was never high on Test as a wrestler, although he did have a good arsenal of power moves..

However, he was really over when the whole married to Steph angle happened..it's such a shame he got buried after that.

I hate to say it but it makes you wonder who will be next on the list of wrestlers who pass away too young..this is terrible

 

[laced up jordans]

TNA will go down in flames much like WCW did.

The Smackdown Elimination Chamber, regardless of HHH winning > Every TNA PPV this year so far.

And TNA does not push their young guys anymore, are you serious?

It's not about hating though...WWE is mediocre, but TNA just doesn't get it right 90% of the time.

Sonjay Dutt nailed it on the head (pause).

Former TNA wrestler Sonjay Dutt says TNA is being pressured by Spike TV to use TNA Impact to focus on big name stars rather than quality wrestling matches. As a result, the X Division has diminished in value, according to Dutt.

"I don't think they've used it to its best abilities as time has gone on," Dutt recently said on the Who's Slamming Who podcast. "It has something to do with them getting two hours, being on a nationally televised network, having to answer to ad sponsorships, having to put on guys with name value versus a quality wrestling match."

TNA's focus on the Main Event Mafia vs. Frontline TV storyline has shifted in recent weeks to in-fighting between the Mafia. Dutt says he was disappointed with TNA for losing focus on the Frontline.

"At the beginning, it was hot. It was something new. It had a lot of steam," Dutt said. "Things have fizzled. There isn't that emphasis on the Frontline as it was in the beginning. Just a bunch of heels taking over the babyfaces every week."

Dutt says Kurt Angle, Booker T, Kevin Nash, and Mick Foley have been good additions to the TNA locker room, but he's concerned TNA is looking for a Hulk Hogan or The Rock to give the company a credibility boost.

"I don't think one person is the answer to the problems the company has," Dutt said.

Dutt says there are too many authority figures on TV, which includes Mick Foley. Foley recently started a "Hardcore History" TV segment where he refers to other companies. Dutt says it's fine in small doses, but the constant references confirms to the audience that TNA believes it's second place.

"At times, it might be appropriate. If done at the right time, I think it adds to a story," Dutt said. "But to bring it up consistently, multiple times on a weekly basis, I don't think that's the way to go. Just acknowledging you are second place."


I don't watch TNA but I read the results of last night's PPV right now...It's segments like these that take away from the few quality matches thattake place. Too much gimmicky bull @%*+.

[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]Sheik Abdul Bashir comes out as the ring crew is setting up for the match of 10,000 tacks. Bashir gets in the ring and says we are now three months into 2009 and he was sitting in the back witnessing another pay-per-view without the Middle Eastern Nightmare. He questions why he was left off the card, asking if it is a conspiracy against him. Bashir says last Thursday on Impact he sent a message that he is tired of being a victim. Bashir says 'your' new President talks about change in America and hope but he has one question for 'you', what hope? Bashir says there is no hope for him. He questions why the man in the military uniform gets an ovation while a man in a turban gets booed. Bashir says he is a victim of a prejudice American Holocaust.[/color]

[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]Jim Cornette comes out and says he has some answers. Cornette tells Bashir it's not he's not a great wrestler, it's because he doesn't like him. Cornette says he doesn't like him, the wrestlers in the back don't like him, and everyone in the arena doesn't like him. Cornette says it's his mouth everyone hates. Cornette says Bashir is always wining and crying about discrimination. Cornette says they don't care about his race but they don't like him because he is a big obnoxious jerk. Cornette gets a babyface reaction from the crowd.[/color]

[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]Cornette says he isn't going to fire him or tear his contract up but he is just going to tell him to get out of the building. Cornette[/color] calls[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]the Navy veteran to the ring. Cornette says they're going to give Bashir a nice grand exit. Cornette asks everyone in the arena to stand up. The Navy veteran leads the crowd in 'God Bless America'. Bashir leaves the ring as the crowd sings.[/color]

[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]Bashir pauses half way up the ramp then continues to leave. The Navy veteran leads USA chants and shakes the hand of Jim Cornette.[/color]

Jeremy Borash is in the ring and calls out ODB. ODB comes out in a dress with her flask and a referee escorting her. Borash asks the crowd if ODB looks lovely tonight. JB asks the crowd to give it up for her drumsmer who is at ringside. Borash says they received thousands of tapes. He says ODB has narrowed the list down to three men. Cody Deaner, contestant number one, comes to ringside first. Contestant number two, a gentlemen that needs no introduction, Shark Boy. The last contestant is Bernie Weber. JB tells ODB to ask question number one. ODB asks why they feel they deserve a hot and steamy night with ODB. Deaner says he doesn't even need the whole night because he can get her done in 60 minutes. Shark Boy says whatever this fella can do in 60 minutes he can do in 20 and maybe can even do it twice. Bernie Weber says he has cars and airplanes, everything she needs for a good time.

ODB says she wants to see a move... she wants to see them dance. JB asks her if she wants a dance off. Borash asks the crowd if that's what they want. Bernie Weber is up first, he moves and says he has more moves than Octomom has babies. Shark Boy moves with JB calling his steps. Shark Boy says you just got Finned, Shell Yeah $%%!#. Cody Deaner is up last, he dedicates the dance to Dale Earnhardt. He dances in the ring. Deaner says the hair on his face isn't the longest part on his body. Borash asks the crowd who should be the winner. Shark Boy receives the biggest ovation. JB asks ODB to make her decision. JB calls Shark Boy and Bernie Weber forward but Cody Deaner wins one night with ODB. He basically humps her in the ring.
