    It sucks to think that I have Vince Russo to thank for one of THE best show reviews I've ever seen Bryan Alvarez and Vince Verhei produce. I haven't laughed so f***ing hard in a long time.

    Are they reviewing NWA TNA week-by-week now? If so, that'll be worth a subscription.

    Like WCW in the late 1990's & 2000 the wrestling wasn't the problem-it was the idiots booking & coming up with dumb stuff. TNA had a phenomenal roster & had good to great matches pretty much every show in the 2000's.

    Glad you Guys are covering the first episode of NWA-TNA this Era Of TNA is crazy I've been going back and watching these episodes on impact plus and I Gotta say this is basically WCW anyone Remember When Puppet pulled a Gun on Jeff Jarrett that was hilarious you can tell Vince Russo wrote that glad this Era of TNA is being talked about again this was crazy 21-years later.

      @@benespinosa6725 The interview she did with the Dupps as well. Best one was Mickie James insulting her & saying Double J's balls had been down her throat, then Mickie attacked Sara Lee, before Jarrett arrived, beat Mickie up & dumped her in the back of a pickup truck.

    so malice doesn't sell, maybe if he took an exploding superkick he would have stayed down and sold oh wait moxley didn't sell that stupid shit either. Yeah tna was a rough start but remember first aew show started with a similiar battle royal with a collection of goofy characters too so it was a start. going with shamrock was fine but he only stayed for a few shows and then dropped it to ron killings and you asked why not just put on killings to begin with might have gotten him over right away and been able to either use him as a heel to build up a babyface or have him go babyface. or scott hall i know he wasn;t the most reliable with his demons but he was probably the biggest name there. and what business did freaking apolo have being in the final four? nothing against the guy, but he always came off as bland as hell to me Oh well

      But when Bryan's height of pro wrestling was getting thrown into a paddling pool by Vinny, his idea of levels of stardom are pretty skewed.
