I've recently started sort of watching TNA with my husband...a few thoughts...
Things I Like
Suicide-He's funny to me...I like his entrance..."out of fricking nowhere it's SUICIDE!"
Awesome Kong-The fact that she has a move called "The Implant Buster" is amazing.I also like the fact that she could probably beat most of the male roster as well in a real fight.
Stevie Richards having a job-I don't really like the "Dr. Steve" thing with Abyss...but I've loved Stevie for years and I'm happy he's still working
The Motor City Machine Guns-LOVE them! I think they are funny on the mic and interesting enough that I actually feel like watching when they talk. I want tickets to the Gun Show..... ![]()
Jeff Jarrett-He's looking hot...that is all.
Things I Hate
The "Butterface" People- Full on BUSTED! Even though I'm a girl that watches wrestling, I don't kid myself about what the role of woman in wrestling is. Sure it's nice if they're talented....but 99% of the time, they are there to look good. The "Beautifu"l People is a joke. Not a one of them that I would consider stunning. Plus...why the hell am I listening to them talk so much? They got like 19 interviews this week...none of which I needed.
Sting's Receeding Hairline- Really? He's bordering on Shawn Michael's territory. Both of them need to just give up and have a shorter haircut. Or do what Chavo did and get the surgery.
The Senior Citizen Mafia-Oh TNA...just stop. Kevin Nash & Scott Steiner can both barely move. Kurt Angle just annoys me because he's not Italian or Russian...why the hell are they a Mafia?. Booker T is forgettable. The only one I can even remotely stand out of all this is Sting and it's mostly his early career keeping him in my good graces. There is no reason why this should take up more than half my show either. Which brings me to..
Too Much Talking- People complain about the WWE! I'm pretty sure 45 minutes had gone by at one point and I had seen one match. When you are trying to pull in new fans you have to come up with another way to introduce them to storylines other than just sitting through interview after interview.
So in conclusion, is TNA fairly interesting? I suppose...but the stupid stuff that causes me to hit fast forward still far outweighs what I'm actually willing to sit through.

I have been crazy busy lately...especially with school coming to a close for another year. This is the time of the year when I start to get a little sad as another group of my babies will be leaving 8th grade for high school. There are some kids this year I'm going to miss terribly, because I've gotten to know them and gotten to watch them grow & mature this year.....there are others though that I won't miss at all!
I switched my signature pic to this lovely scene of Georges St. Pierre beating the living snot out of BJ Penn and then reacting in a very angry way when the round ends before he could finish the fight.
What can I say? Homeboy is even more hot when he's all angry & aggressive! *fans self*
Hubby and I finally got a chance to pop into Fry's Electronics the other day where it turns out they have some of the cheapest prices on MMA dvd's in Vegas. Hubby and I got to pick up 4 UFC DVD's and 4 Pride DVD's all for only about 40 dollars...which is amazing given that Best Buy (our other source for MMA stuff) doesn't carry much Pride & charges about $15 a piece of UFC DVD's.
I hadn't watched much Pride, but what I do see in these DVD's I like. Pride was sort of the WCW to the WWE that is the UFC. Problem is Pride went through some legal troubles & was rumored to be run by the Japanese Mafia
UFC bought them out a few years back, but some of the fighters & other workers of Pride reformed and created the Dream fight league.....
I've also decided to break down and read this even though everything I've heard about it has made me lol forever (especially as an English major in college) . Most of the truly funny stuff doesn't happy until the fourth book.
Oddly though, I'm half reading it because every single 8th grader at my work has read it and I feel like I have to in order to know what their talking about and half because many intelligent people that I really respect intellectually have talked about what a good book it is.
Also, is it just me or have the wrestling forums way slowed down as far as posts go. With Sylent getting banned (which is still stupid) and of people who seem to either want to act like idiots or just argue for the sake of arguing, it's a little weird.
So my MMA boyfriend....the smoking hot Georges St. Pierre recently became the first MMA athlete to be sponsered by Gatorade!

Ugh...that french accent makes me melt every time!
I got tickets to the UFC fanfest and I shudder to think what I will actually do if there is an opportunity to get GSP's autograph...the stalking will be EPIC.

I say again......wow....
For real, I'm pumped about the Fan Fest. This is the first official "UFC" one but I've heard on other boards, that at other MMA exibitions and fan fests, the fighters are all always super nice and accessible. I'm buying a new camera before the event (which sadly, isn't until July)so I can hopefully get some great pictures.
The next fight I'm actually looking forward too is on the Strikeforce, April 11th card!
My favorite ghetto baby Nick Diaz (the one giving the bird) vs Frank Shamrock (Ken's brother....he talked for years about how Ken was on steroids....guess people should have listened) .
One of my favorite MMA moments involved Frank Shamrock telling his opponent Phil Baroni (who some in MMA compare to Ric Flair due to Baroni's love of fancy robes & 40 minute long entrances) that he was going to sleep...right before he made it happen!

As far as life...Spring Break is next week! I'm not going anywhere, but I do get out of work for a few days!
Edit: My comments section is too cluttered when I reply!!! Someone smart teach my how to make paragraphs! ![]()
