| Pillow Fights, Bikinis & Lingerie “Are for Divas” May 17th 2008 | Posted by Melanie |

TNA continues to ride on WWE’s coattails, this time using the Knockouts. One of the signature pieces of TNA, if not the most thriving portion of the company, why stoop so low and lower yourselves to taking pot shots at the WWE Divas? That’s exactly what TNA does in it’s latest “Cross the Line” promo featuring the Knockouts:
TNA has a great product with it’s Knockout division and in my eyes, the more they distance themselves from WWE, the better. I don’t like to compare Knockout division to WWE’s women’s division, because they are two very different things. The fact that TNA themselves feel the need to compare themselves to the Divas, shows their own pettiness. Most Diva fans love both the WWE Divas and the TNA Knockouts, you’re only alienating your fanbase. Yes, there is truth to the statements above but any fan over the age of 5 could point that out. TNA should concentrate on their own women’s division and not even acknowledge WWE’s, because the multitude of people - including all of you reading this, I’m sure - watch/pay attention to both the Knockouts and the Divas. Both brands should just do their own thing and get on with it. |

Oh snap.. I think it takes balls to do something like that, but I can’t help but think it tastes of desperation as well.
I mean, I know they need viewers, but try to retain some of your integrity. Don’t step on the Divas to elevate your own name. Do it on your own, with your own matches. Let the action do the talking.
the promo would have been better if they didnt add the “thats for divas” part. I honestly think TNA shouldnt take stabs at WWE until they get a bigger fanbase. Its just weird to me that TNA mentions WWE so much whereas WWE doesnt even look at TNA. [minus the sharkboy thing]
Funny. TNA needs to lay off, and do their own thing. Lmfao.
#1:If your women’s division is all you have to promote, then there is something seriously wrong.
#2:Why waste time taking digs at a company that couldn’t give two sh*ts about you???
#3: They need to worry about getting their ratings above 1.3, and then worry about WWE.
This is one of the reasons I don’t watch TNA (other than the fact that it sucks). They waste so much time on bashing WWE, its really sad. At least when WCW took digs they were actually WINNING the ratings war. And truthfully, I’m not impressed with the matches I’ve seen on YouTube. WWE could do that if they wanted to, so whatever.
Not surprised. TNA was trying to promote their stuff during Wrestlemania.
The promo also went on to say: “Like what you feel when you know we’re for real?”
And there’s a new one.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bl_TLT6V_Bc
I agree with the “I don’t watch TNA” sentiment. My dad watches it sometimes and gets a kick out of seeing the old wrestlers like Sting and Scott Steiner on there, but that’s because he used to watch WCW and kind of likes the campy aspect.
I, for one, couldn’t watch that without being bored to tears. If a good Knockout match takes place, I’ll just watch it on YouTube.
I have to agree with Erin about this TNA promo and the actual show.
I can’t, actually, scratch that. I CAN believe that TNA are stepping on the WWE Divas to try and boost their fanbase. But it’s just desperate. I have only watched two full shows of TNA… and got bored.
Pretty much what I’m thinking has been said already. This promo was just another “Lets bash WWE” thing. I find it odd that most of the knockouts has done the bra and panties thing, pillow fights, and etc.
