Yeah Raw was pretty awesome this past Monday. It's been getting better and better. I thought ECW was good yesterday. I found it funny how the main event was put to a halt because Shelton started bleeding.

Anyone know what WWE NXT is going to be? The commercial & theme song makes it seem like its going to be a reality show.

Yeah.  What is this NXT crap, and if anyone says that it's the next step in the evolution of the WWE they get smacked upside the head.

From what i've heard rumors are it's the mix between a wrestling show and a reality tv show type thing...

Which is weird since they already had Tough Enough.

Maybe it's going to be like Tough Enough but with scripted drama?  Maybe eliminations like Ultimate Fighter with a bunch of wrestling development wrestlers.

This sounds like something that I have no interest in at all.

They've had trouble keeping my interest with their normal programming the last few years.

I would of kept watching ECW but I get a feeling I'm not going to like this NXT. Good going Syfi/WWE instead of trying to improve a show make one thats even worse. ROH on HDnet had a very good tag match that went for about twenty minutes between the Young Bucks(Generation Me)and the American Wolves. Check for it on You Tube.

TNA is going to make a major announcement this coming Monday, and they'll be streaming it online. They're probably going to announce that they'll be moving to Monday nights.

Does WWE even condone tag team matches anymore?
The TT division is pretty much lifeless.

They confirmed mondays today... seems like such an odd choice... how is it going to help rating at all to go up against another wrestling show? I'm not a ratings expert but i'd think distance would be good and not bad.

TNA is doomed. I'm watching it right now and Hulk Hogan has zero heat. The audience is dead and he's trying to sound hip by spouting off sayings that were cool twenty-forty years ago. The audience isn't feeling it at all.

They really need to get out of the Impact Zone or this will not end well.

That's not just an odd choice, it's downright suicidal IMO.

How in the hell does Hogan expect to compete with RAW, period, let alone going head-to-head with it? RAW has an established talent base, a much bigger fan base and has tons more media exposure. Not to mention, the show is run far more professionally than Impact has ever been.

They can't even back out of it without losing face in the media and with their own talent- and fanbases. Yet they have to either do it - or up their game, like, 10x over that "big" January Impact - or they're just flat-out screwed.

This is like David and Goliath - except David is pants-on-head retarded and Goliath has a goddamn minigun.
