I'm pretty confident Wade Barrett will win the title as well on Sunday.

When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train

Well IMO the slow-burner approach is nearly always better. You know, the chase better then the catch. I remember when The Rock was trying to win the title from HHH around 2000 and kept getting screwed time after time (e.g. interference from the McMahons, sly sledgehammer shot by HHH when the ref was knocked out, etc). By the time he won it the crowd was desperate to see him become champ. The reaction after his victory (Backlash 2000 IIRC) was absolutely incredible and the type of noise/excitement that you won't see in the WWE for a long time unfortunately. :cry:


But you have to time that sort of thing right otherwise the fans can go off the boil as they see the face as a choke artist

Another PPV already :shock:

I will go with a Sheamus win so HHH can take the title off him when he returns.

TNA has hired Al Ovadia as their chief marketing officer in his 20+ year career he has previously been Executive Vice President of Sony Pictures Consumer Products, Vice president of licensing and merchandising at Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, Vice president of network creative services at NBC Television.


That should step up their marketing quite a lot, which is an area they definitely need to improve.

Katie Lea Burchill worked a dark match against Madison Rayne last night, indy wrestler Christina Von Eerie was backstage at last nights tapings and indy wrestler Becky Bayless signed last week. So it looks like TNA is trying to build up the Knockouts division again.

Samoa Joe has now returned from his suspension.
TNA is doing physicals, blood work tests and random drug screenings at tonight's tapings.

Christ I hope they don't ask Flair for one - the mad old ba$tard will probably just punch himself 20 times in the head and say "There, take what you need", followed by the mandatory Flair Fall to The Floor. :shock: :SICK: :lol:

Watched most of Hardcore Justice, not impressed I have to say. :( Not a patch on One Night Stand 05 or 06, or even the Hardcore Homecoming event in 2005, don't see what TNA was trying to achieve by staging it to be honest, no long-term thinking at all at the moment. :cry:

New WWE game out soon. Strange, the cover I saw had Cena, Miz and Big Show on the front. :? Maybe it was fake like the Goldust one I saw. :EH: :lol:

The cover for SvR is regional this year, the cover you saw is the US one.
