I never really tune-in to watch it, but I have found both WWE and Ultimate Fighting to be reasonably interesting when they're already on at restaurants.

You should really get into TNA more FreezeWarp. WWE is becoming more childish to watch for me especially Monday Night Raw.

I follow it somewhat though I am not as much of a fan as I used to be. The product has gone down in quality quite a bit over the years I have been a fan.

TNA is good but the storylines are too hard to follow.

Hogan and Bischoff made it worse but since they went to TNA it's been easier to follow.

I read somewhere that he was a big fan of Wolfe. But I don't know about The Pope. He's really good on the mic reminds me of The Rock a bit. And for Kendrick, I big fan of his as well I hope he could have a title reign soon.

With AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe happening this Sunday at Against All Odds, TNA needs to capitalize on what was a pitiful Royal Rumble (sans the actual match itself which garnered four out of five stars).

After that and this is wishful thinking, they need to remain solid in their PPVs and start pushing the new stars. If they want to include the older ones in vignettes and in managerial positions, fine... because people are surely not going to pay for Hogan to wrestle again.

Well, I admit I did watch a recent TNA and though it was good and enjoyable, I hadto skip through a lot of it. The only parts I did watch were Kendrick and MCMG vs Amazing Red and Generation Me and Mr. Anderson vs Jeff Jarrett
If all of TNA's matches were this good, I would watch it more often.

If you can stomach it, I highly suggest watching Big Japan Wrestling (BJW). It's violent death-matches involving lighttubes, razor blades and other crazy items but here's the key. The matches are entertaining and have clean finishes unlike a lot of the garbage TNA and WWE provide.

The whole deal with TNA having Eric Young and Kevin Nash against Scott Hall and Syxx Pac screams of a swerve. Kevin Nash is odd as a good guy but is smooth as a bad guy.

TNA is great if you can ignore the nonsense they keep feeding us every week. Last Monday's broadcast was fun to watch, but the shows before it were really, really, really aggravating to watch. For instance, I'm not sure if anyone other than that one guy with the "Bubba Army" sign actually wants to see The Nasty Boys wrestle...in 2010. Against The Dudleyz no less.

It's much easier to watch if you're not paying absolute attention to it, but even then it's hard to ignore the pulsating stupidity that's happening right before your eyes every Thursday at 6 PM (West coast, satellite, I watch Grey's Anatomy on my local ABC station at 9. lol)

I'm not saying WWE is better by any means, WWE is hard to watch too, but at least it's somewhat tolerable.

The only thing that really sets me off about TNA is Bubba the Lovesponge, because if they never brought him in, then Amazing/Awesome Kong would still a part of the TNA roster. The fact that TNA Management values Hogan's relationship with Bubba more then their most over Knockout, Kong, just ticks me off to no end. Whenever he shows up on television, or is even mentioned on screen I just have to leave the room for a second. I'm a big Womens' Wrestling fan, and the Knockout Division is pretty much the only reason I keep watching TNA, even if I've grown absolutely tired of The Beautiful People. I just pray, hope, and bow before Arceus that Taylor, Stock/Sarita, and Hamada get some type of TV time. T-T

Well around Mania time, they amp it up a bit. Building up the Taker/Michaels match was one and letting Stone Cold host was another.

TNA Lockdown was actually surprisingly decent. Kurt Angle and Mr. Anderson (Kennedy) had a great match along with a good World Title Match and a wacky cluster of a main event.

Impact following Lockdown was also good.

Sometimes I watch wrestling when nothing else is on, but I gotta say, I know I'm not the only one thinking ahem, dirty on what's going on.

Girl wrestling is fun to watch.XDD Its like cat fights! They're hilarious. I'd watch either WWE or TNA, they're both wrestling.

I think they have some sorta match wear the only goal is too rip the others close off. So yea, some wrestling is just for sex appeal =w=

The girls are reaaaally muscly though. A lil too much muscle looks odd. :<
Oh also mysterio ftw~! I think thats what hes named. There was this little wrestler dood, that did all these high flying acrobatic stuff when I watched it. Him and the undetaker are my fav~! =w=

Exactly the reason why I stopped watching. Cryme Tyme was an okay tag team, but last time I watched Smackdown, they were enemies. I mean, really? That isn't the best tag team break up ya know? Guess show business will be show business though regardless of how stupid the choices that are made in them may be.

I used to be a fan of WWE and TNA, but I quickly lost interest after the storylines got extremely dull and boring, all the old school wrestlers left and everything seemed to be recycled while it got even more gimmickier.

Honestly, I lost interest in WWE once The Rock retired. However, I only watched it because of wrestlers such as John Cena, The Undertaker, Triple H, Rey Mysterio and Batista. Now Batista is a jerk thanks to the storyline and Undertaker is a no-show. I haven't seen him appear on Smackdown in at least a month. Once Undertaker and Triple H leave I might not watch it at all.

Also, I agree with Xplicitable about the dull and boring storylines.

So...does anyone remember what happened to John Cena after that accident? I think it was a broken leg? Did he quit or something? I don't think I have ever seen him in wrestling in a long time.

What accident did he have recently? I mean, last I saw about John Cena was his big "I Quit" fight against Batista. And nothing seemed to be wrong with him. So, if he got his leg broken recently, it had to be on the Pay Per View. Too bad I do not know when that particular PPV was supposed to be held.

Fortunately the name did change because if it hadn't almost all of the greatest World Wrestling Federation wrestlers would be shaking their heads at it with the way it is now. World Wrestling Entertainment isn't quite as entertaining as anyone had hoped it would have been. Guess better actors and storylines mean everything. Hence, The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin. Two of the best wrestlers and actors who participated in the WWF/WWE.

I had the chance to go to a live TNA show last Saturday. Two reports were submitted, one by me (for PWTorch) and another by a guy for the Wrestling Observer. The WO guy was negative and hated it, though I thought it was fun. I don't expect A+ matches on a non-televised show and I am glad I got to see guys such as Jay Lethal, AJ Styles, RVD, Abyss, and Jeff Hardy to name a few.

I used to take a class for MMA, which is a combination of Boxing, Kickboxing, Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, and Grappling. Like UFC.
