It's Not Just the Other Show in April, It's Wrestlemania!

I actually watched TNA last night.

I liked all the matches, especially the 20-man Six Sides of Steel match won by Samoa Joe and Awesome Knog wo-manhandling the Beautiful People. I also became a huge fan of Suicide (he's just that good).

But something that kinda made me BOIL was the Mick Foley/Sting segment, where Mick explains that he hit Sting last week with a steel chair to protect the founder of TNA, Jeff Jarett (Sting tried to hit him with a guitar).

But when Foley said, "Everyone's not talking about that other show in April; they're talking about Lockdown!", I thought the complete opposite.

Everyone's talking about the 25th Anniversary of Wrestlemania, not TNA Lockdown. I mean, it's probably the fifth Anniversary of Lockdown, but multiply that by five, and you have the number of years that Wrestlemania's been around.

That means that Wrestlemania has been around five times longer than TNA.

If Mick Foley, the Hardcore Legend and former WWE employee, says that Wrestlemania is just "some other show in April", then he must have forgotten everything, including when he and Terry Funk, best known as Chainsaw Charlie (in the WWF), beat the New Age Outlaws for the WWF Tag Team Championship.

It just makes me sad that a wrestler like Mick Foley is required to say that Wrestlemania is not what it seems, but I think that TNA is trying to get more viewers, but with comments like this, WWE could get some popularity because people would try to figure out what this "other show" is in April.

So, this could backfire for TNA. Instead, if they want more fans, they should either move the time slot of the 2-hour show, or they should try to invade the WWE (most unlikely thing to happen).

Question Of The Article: Did you think Foley's comment was distasteful, and how should TNA win more fans?
