The New Palace Project Shout Out Chat Room

Last night's Impact...

Look, for the 1000th time, I WAS NOT trying to criticize Impact last night. I can't, because I watched only the last 15 minutes or so of it. I thought the end of the Joe/AJ/Sabin match was 100%. I also am FULLY aware that there's got to be some sort of "comedic" spoof on thanksgiving, and I guess that's where the pilgrim and the turkey suit comes in. Fine, i get it. I don't have to like it, but I get it.

MY PROBLEM is that TNA has taken a talent that has limitless potential and ability like AJ Styles and they have collectively turned him from a main event calibre talent to a goof. It's disgusting how they have taken a talent like that, and turned him in to a laughing stock. THAT'S MY PROBLEM. So everyone else who wants to take this as a shot to me because I'm bashing their precious organization, whatever it may be, well, I'm sorry. I'm here, you're there, this is my opinion, and I publicize it.

You wanna debate me, fine. You wanna insult me, go find someplace else to vent your spleen, because I don't want to, and the readers here, don't want to hear your bull.

First stop crying (Bad enough you blamed your brats for you being unable to write something last week)... you're just mad that TNA is using their talent the way they want them to be used and not how you want to them to be used. It's sports ENTERTAINMENT! So suck it up, grow a set, and actually want the whole show before your criticize it

And one more thing... you're not paying AJ Styles... TNA is paying him... and they are going to use him as they see fit. Why? Because no one is going to pay to see a skinny guy do backflips, and it took TNA a few years to learn that fact. AJ Styles has found his niche, a goof that is more entertaining as a side kick than he is as an internet asshole's fantasy.

Hey Dice
Get A LIFE!! I watched the whole show and found it tasteless to say the least. To see grown men act like that is a blanking joke. Hello?? Kids watched that crap.And I do agree that Nash should retire but at least go back to WWE and get some dignaty. What they have done to him is shameful. AJ GO NO BETTER RUN TO WWE AND GO BACK TO BEING WHO YOU KNOW YOU CAN BE Keep up the good work Mike as always I love your views. God Bless

I've got to agree with you, Mike. AJ Styles is an exceptional wrestler, and to humiliate him in the name of sophmoric comedy is just ridiculous. But TNA seems to think that burying the future of the business, in order to give re-treads who have no business being in the ring anymore, is a great way to ensure a successful future for their company. Sounds sort of like TNA is using WCW as a template for their business plan, doesn't it?

Be glad you didn't see the whole show Mike. Seeing Shark Boy trying to eat dinner without a mouth hole on his mask; seeing Amazing Kong eating plastic fruit while not seeming to realize the fruit wasn't real; seeing Eric Young being forced to sit at the children's table, all of that was simply and utterly pathetic.

I was excited when TNA first started up, thinking that there would be an alternative to the WWE. Being from Canada, I had a choice as to which wrestling show I wanted to watch - Impact on Spike TV., or Smackdown on "The Score". I started off watching Impact, but got so disgusted I changed the channel to watch Smackdown.

Speaking about disgusting, what's up with ODB carrying a flask to the ring? Are we soon going to see an intergender "Beer Bottle vs. Flask" match between James Storm and ODB, with the loser having to go to rehab and join AA?

TNA provides some great role model characters for younger fans that are not wise to the business. Two drunks, and a man who abuses women, come immediately to mind.
If TNA keeps going the way their going, they'll be just successful as WCW was last year. Ooops, WCW wasn't around last year was it? Or the year before that, or the year before that, or the year before that...for that matter. Pathetic storylines, and re-treads hogging the spotlight, killed WCW, didn't it?

Well you know what they say. People who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Don't you think it's time that somebody told that old adage to Jeff Jarrett and Dixie Carter?

...Take it easy Dice. I'm really not sure it's quite that serious.

Wow Dice where's all the anger coming from. The man (whom I respect and like) gave an OPINION.

I happen to agree that Styles can be used better. No, I dont pay him but as a FAN of wrestling I have a right to say I dont like it.

Yes, Styles being a goof can be entertaining but I enjoyed his old character more.

TNA was built on guys like Styles and now they are getting away from that and I think thats where most of the complaints come from.

I agree with you. I am a huge fan of AJ Styles and I love his ring work. It just stinks that TNA doesn't use him more. I would love to see him in some really good high profile matches instead of being thrown out like he is. Keep up the good writing!

I bet Dice is just upset because nobody has changed his diaper in about a week. Seriously dude, calm down.

TNA hasn't gotten ratings in a while, they're stuck in the 1.1 ratings... lower than WWECW.

Putting a turkey suit on AJ Styles doesn't bring ratings, especially when TNA's core audience are smarks who got tired of turkey suits on WWE.
