Another Show? Wow, Vince. Watch For TNA To Make An Impact

Ben SampsonMay 6, 2009

WWE certainly hasn't been able to entertain like they can in the past couple of months.

Why? For many reasons; ECW doesn't have any really good superstars (let's exclude Christian and Evan Bourne, shall we?) and is only 1 hour a week.

The WWE talent is either being babied too much (those multiple-time world champions that seem to always hold the title; not trying to offend any fans), getting only the table scraps (i.e. Cody Rhodes, United States Champion MVP, Intercontinental Champion Rey Mysterio, etc. who deserve more) or those who just can't seem to win a match.

The lack of extreme matches has turned off many, and Vince has done nothing to remedy that problem. So if it's extreme action you love, then check out TNA.

Also, ECW should always have extreme matches, or mainly those types of matches. TNA has girls fighting in a steel cage (c'mon, Vince, show us why you're at the top of the mountain) on their card.

If I may, I shall use a term I heard from the Internet: ECW isn't "Extreme Championship Wrestling", it's " Extremely Crappy Wrestling"!

WWE Superstars is a great concept, but it leaves no mystery of knowing what's going to happen. I liked the idea of Superstars being allowed to appear on different shows more than another hour composed of two to three matches.

I also heard on the Internet that Vince had a meeting with WWE stockholders and was interested in having another show on a Wednesday. Big no-no! We're already bored with four shows; why have five? IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!

TNA only has one show, which gives it that much more suspense. They also have many talented wrestlers, seem to pass around their World title, and have contracts with Japanese and other foreign wrestling promotions for talent exchange, which gives them a variety of new talent.

They can have extreme matches, and even pay-per-views, like TNA Lockdown, with every match being contested in a steel cage (unlike some promoters...*cough cough* Vince McMahon...).

The only problem with TNA is the air-time of Impact. It may be 9pm Eastern Time, but in my area, we're one hour ahead of ET, so we watch TNA from 10 to 12.

That could change, but Thursday night is not the best time to air Impact. Why not air a live Impact on Friday?

No other promotion does that, so it'd be perfect. The only obstacle is Smackdown, who was been recently named the best brand in the WWE, so TNA could air Impact on Saturday.

If TNA did that, it might actually have a chance of bulldozing the empire that is WWE.

Just as advice, here are some ideas for Jeff Jarett, owner of TNA:

  • More build-up and promotion; promo videos, exclusive coupons for ShopTNA.com that can only be received by calling a number aired onmly on TV, and a magazine (WWE Magazine is pretty good; why can't TNA do the same?).
  • Try to win over a WWE Superstar
  • Giveaways!

And for Vince:

  • Do not do a Wednesday night show! The quality of WWE shows has faltered since the creation of ECW!
  • Do a talent exchange with New Japan and other foreign promotions for a fresh look.
  • Give your mid-carders a couple of chances at your World titles.
  • Give the viewers more mystery (i.e. get rid of Superstars!)
  • Try to promote yourself by using other fields of entertainment (don't you remember the XFL and the WBL?)

Got any suggestions? Just comment
