The Rock responded to Cena's rap.

First The Rock and then Austin, Wow I might be tempted into watching Wrestlemania this year. Shame The Rock gets to take part in a top superstars match while Austin is reduced to Cole Vs Lawler, But hell I'll take what I can get when it comes to Austin.

Here's a question for the WWE fans alike, I noticed that Undertaker seems to have removed his "SARA" tattoo from his neck? (thanks to HDTV) So does that mean they got divoroced? Or am I totally wrong? That sucks if true

Yup he did. I think he's married to Michelle McCool now.

Yes, the IWC has many a theory of backstage politics pushing McRibs and Laycool.

Speaking of the IWC, the podcast I do at least once every month, DarkMatch, has a tumblr site now!

I've been wondering to myself what is the point of Tna Explosion on Challenge it just repeats the already aired ppv with different logo's and by repeat I mean they air the ppv's 3 hours before Tna Explosion, it's like some +1 hour tv channel shit and means I have to stay up longer to see Gameface + GinX Files.

Not watched much wrestling since early 2000s, the problem here is when it isn't popular the named events like Summerslam, Wrestlemania etc etc are free, then when it gets popular they want silly amounts of money for it and don't even have the decency to run the thing earlier so not in the middle of the night. Not gonna pay for something that was free and then still stay up really late on a Sunday of all things to watch something that isn't even real, it is all staged so they can do it whenever they want.

It is something that caused wrestling to fall out of popularity in the 90s and they are just repeating the mistake.

Plus the few matches I try and watch here and there are crap compared to some of the stuff they used to do, and no one can ever replace Hogan who walked away because of quality issues.

[kevstah2004]

Remember's the good ole days with Heat / PPV's on channel 4 and the Nitro / Thunder on channel 5 for free back when they waring for viewing figures, TNA isn't even taking the fight to WWE anymore the 3 hours a week on UK TV is pityfull and it's why they can't develop proper storylines we just get the Sting, Joe, Styles yearly rotation again it's sad because Sting is killing his career with this crap, if he went to WWE i'd mark the f out
compare TNA 2002 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxs1qXPimSw to the shit 2-3 minute matches we get now and the knockout filler shite

Ah cool, thank you.

[Jill4EverSTARS]

I'm excited only because I want to see The Rock kick John Cenas roody poo candy ass I even got the new I Bring It shirt

I heard rumours Stone Cold is going to TNA is it true? I'm suprised Ultimate Warrior hasn't been signed he used to tag with Sting but I guess they saw his dreadful comeback match aginast orlando jordan but then again he was wrestling with either a sprained ankle or broken foot.

[BrionIrons]

Stone Cold is NOT going to TNA.He's gonna be at WrestleMania and he's hosting WWE Tough Enough this upcoming Monday.

[GuardhouseMusic]

If ROH can get a new TV deal and play on a channel that more people actually have access to, I'd be a lot more excited to watch wrestling every week. I'm sure for the WWE it's just the "necessity" of WM buildup, but the last few weeks have been a good promo here and there, maybe a good match or two, but mostly just repetitions of the previous week.

For now, I can watch with the hope that talent such as CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, John Morrison, Dolph Ziggler, Sheamus, and others can get the recognition and ring time they deserve. In TNA's case the booking is just sewage right now. Kevstah mentioned a yearly rotation of Joe, Styles, and Sting but I'd take the first two out. Joe is in a pointless angle with Elijah Burke (another clump of wasted potential) and Styles has been kayfabe shelved.

[Darkmoon]

Yeah, I gotta admit, I only watch TNA because it's free (incuding the PPV's) in the UK. With Vince 'I'm a huge Fuckup' Russo writting and getting ideas from Eric 'I'm a Genius!' Bischoff and Hulk 'My Spot is Eternally Mine Even when I can't Wrestle for Fear of my Old Man Hip Popping Off' Hogan it's just being utter drivel. The only bright moments are Anderson's rants (and matches) and whenever they find a whole 2 minutes of air time for some of the better wrestlers.

[kevstah2004]

He should of gave WCW to Shane and ECW to Stephanie the way it was in the Invasion angle and carried on both comapnies, WCW and ECW both served as a training ground for upcoming stars before making their big break in WWF now it's much harder to see if a wrestler will cut the mustard. TNA is gonna end up as passing fad if it's not careful the same as Backyard Wresting. Simply put wrestling suffered a massive blow with the breakdown of WCW, Hogan Russo 's doing laying down in matches wtf
