TNA & TNA PPV Chat/Discussion
Lacey Von Erich posted the following on her Twitter account:
I decided to respectfully leave TNA today. I want to try new things, like be a sports host or something Love ya'll!
She followed up with the following comment on her Facebook account: Let's face it I was no Von Erich in the ring But it was so much fun!
Refreshing to see that she is honest an humble an realized that she was awful in the ring so good luck to what ever she does next can't see a return to WWE either.
Bazinga!

RE: TNA Factions
TNA are trying so hard to try and recreate some sort of nWo faction because they think that will automatically bring success to the company, they forget that they have basically ruined their company over the years to the point where people don't take anything it does seriously. For instance out of a US viewership of 1.5 million how do they only get 10,000 buys for some PPVs and that figure rarely goes above 30,000.
In my opinion TNA has had some good times in the past such as the buildup to Angle/Joe at Lockdown a couple of years back and in 2005 they put together some top PPVs. But they have made Joe look a joke and fool so many times since then that he is a shell of his former self. TNA should go about rebuilding and making so of its own stars (I know it doesn't have a development territory) and promote them up the card if they are good enough and we know that there are, going through the list of World Champs in TNA in the past five years we have had:
Former WWE Stars - Kurt Angle, Jeff Hardy, Jeff Jarrett and Christian (Cage)
Former WCW Stars - Sting and Mick Foley
Former ECW Stars - Raven and Rob Van Dam
Indy (with TNA being their first major international exposure) - AJ Styles, Abyss and Samoa Joe
* Now I've based these on of course the first bit of major exposure said superstar got *
So in terms of stars that 3 out of 11 have held TNA's top prize and think of the TV time that non-World Champions like Booker T, Hogan, Nash etc have had in that time compared to home grown wrestlers that could of been made into stars. With time invested TNA has always had the talent its just a case of most if not all are hardly ever used properly so the booking team especially the current one have to resort to tactics such as creating all these factions to try and get something like the nWo (which they probably never will) to get ratings and buyrates up and thus bring in the needed income to expand and grow bigger and compete.
On Brits, I guess its the cheap heel and ring styles can lend to being heels.
Top Day Babes currently: Mikaela Witt, Amy Lu, Paige Phillips, Keira Knight, Belle, Electra, Jasmine Jones, Tashie Jackson, Charlie C, Franki, Hannah P, Nina Leigh, Terrie Hawkes, Lucy Kemp and Angela
