Dirtsheets are not reliable regardless, but the Observer has reported that Destination America has an out clause in September. ROH is cheaper programming for DA than TNA is and the shows are being produced on Sinclair's broadcasting and then rerun on Destination America. I have no faith in Dixie Carter regardless. We'll see what happens in a few months. This could just be a way to segway the fanbase into TNA or siphon it before removing it from the channel. Either way, no one really knows until September.



Angelico is nuts.



Lucha Underground is pretty fantastic, though it's a shame it's on a channel hardly anyone has. I have to watch it via Youtube.

Lucha Underground is by far the best weekly television wrestling program.  That's because it's not just a setup show for PPV.  We get huge, meaningful matches and story progression pretty much every week.

Also, the Fenix / Muertes feud has been unbelieveable.

It helps having some fantastic talent, too, and the editing and production are excellent, as is the storytelling.

 



This is what I did tonight.



Just recently my Directv package has given me El Rey, which Lucha Underground is on. I have to agree that it is fantastic. Sadly for them, Ring of Honor is in it's timeslot.

Also, I see the ROH leading into TNA Impact as a good thing as it will attract fans of each brand to the other. Cross promotional stuff could be possible if Dixie Carter didn't have her head up her own rear end. So yeah, with TNA, ROH, Lucha Underground, and even New Japan on as alternatives to the other guys I am a happy camper. Anyone think that the WWE knew that the ROH deal was coming and signed Samoa Joe and Kevin Steen before it happened?

The WWE did something right and they did it perfectly. Kevin Owens just became a legitimate force in the WWE "universe" and he did it by being really, really good in the wrestling ring.



I have to watch that match. Everything else on the card didn't look must watch. Though, I think Cena's hit his point in his career that he can lose every single match from now on and it won't affect him. Kinda like Jericho.
