number 1 contenders match tonight?
There is a ppv in 10 days, so we need some actual buildup this time.
at 1:36 am
I heard rosita in at impact tonight, anyone know if that’s true?
at 2:00 am
mickie and brooke vs tara and gail??
What was the point of bringing Velvet back.
Should be Velvet/Brooke/Mickie vs Gail/Tara/Madison

Velvet couldn’t get to a houseshow because she couldn’t drive in bad conditions. She is fine.

“What was the point of bringing Velvet back.”
Probably saving her until after Genesis. It’s a throw away PPV. Her vs. Tara for the belt at Lockdown in March.

The Knockouts division is absolutely pathetic.

How can you back that up when they have some of the greatest female wrestlers in the world?

The Divas are getting better feuds & build than the Knockouts.
theprincedann Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 2:25 am
But the standard of wrestling you can’t compare.
I watch both shows, but
Tara, Sarita, Brooke, ODB, Gail Kim and Mickie James.
Eve, Alicia Fox, Aksana, Rosa.. I struggle to name many..
The only great wrestler, in WWE is Nattie.
Please nobody start the whole knockouts are former Divas. I’m not stupid. And neither are they. They went to TNA to compete in a respectable women’s division.
In my opinion, there is no comparison.
puppies Reply:

That doesn’t really makes the Knockouts bad, just means the Divas are improving. Which is a good thing!
Although I will say booking has been weird, but that goes for TNA as a whole.

@Sweeney You bash all the Divas except for Layla & Natalya
@ThePrinceDann You bash all of the divas except for Natalya
theprincedann Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 4:11 am
I don’t bash Natalya because I like women’s wrestling. And she can wrestle. Hence my appreciation of her.
Simple. Really not difficult to understand.
Natalya should leave and go somewhere where women’s wrestling isn’t a “squeeze it in where there is a 2 minute gap” job. Then they should scrap all of the pretend wrestlers. Scrap the belt even Barbie would LOL at. And scrap their division. Its a waste of time anyway.
Want women’s wrestling? Watch it.
Want Barbie dolls in bikinis having catfights?
Stick to your children’s program.

Majority of the Knockouts fight over a title. The majority of the Divas fight for everything but the title. I’ll rather watch the Knockouts.

Are you serious? Commercial break!!!

A 6min. match so far, with 4 minutes only for the commercials, gimme a break. u_u’

Everybody in this match got ass but Gail

It’s so weird how badly Gail’s body aged. Back in 2003 she was hot, now… Not so much.

So wrong, I know lots of Asians, and they actually look young for their age. My ex girlfriend is Asian, so I do know they age well.
puppies Reply:

Idk maybe it’s just me but her body looks very square-shaped, and when I first saw her ten years ago she had a very nice, thin, toned, yet still curvy body. She’s still pretty though.
Danni Reply:

Eh, I’d say the opposite ..Asians look REALLY young for their age till they hit 50 then they age 70 years over night xD.
rodneyclint Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 5:52 am
um, are you kidding me?! Gail looks great for any age! I rewatched her debut match with the WWE the other day and she has barely changed. The rest of those girls have always had rather prominent assets, whereas Gail never did, even when she was younger.

@Rodneyclint Thank you for saying that gail looks amazing, her body is so tone and she is aging really well whoever said she looked bad i won’t entertain your ignoramous(in my voice damien sandow).

Did Gail just do Kaitlyn’s finisher? I THINK SHE DID HAHAHA
DJ8946 Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 2:30 am
Lol If Eve is coping Madison, Gail just copied Kaitlyn
puppies Reply:

Yeah it felt weird seeing to done as a non-signature move after seeing Kaitlyn do it so much haha.

January 4th, 2013 at 3:32 am
Gail did that move WAY before Kaitlyn. She used it back in her feud with Brooke a couple of times.

No she didn’t. Prove it.
theprincedann Reply:

No she didn’t prove it.
You sound like such a child. A gutbuster is a really generic move. Nothing special.
Go back to the playground, you sound like a whiny child.

I can’t find the exact one, but here is one of the ones that’s similar:

That looks better than Kaitlyns too.
I know she has done it the way Kaitlyn does it once before as well, just can’t remember the exact match
Choko Reply:

DJ8946
Are you dumb? Gail used the move on Tessmacher in their PPV match. She has been using it for months. Clearly longer than Kaitlyn, plus she pulls it of better despite having less muscle.
Oh and it’s a gutbuster, it’s not like your woman Kaitlyn invented a new move.
S1 Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 7:03 am
Gail has done that move to Brooke in past matches on PPV. It’s probably the only Knockout she could do that move on.
at 2:30 am
Aww Victoria checked up on Brooke and went easy on her after. All of her ass slammed on Brooke lol

Yes, but I’ve counted the commercial break too and it was like 4min long and the match was still going on, so it was 13min long.
at 2:32 am
Btw so happy Mickie is cooling it on this Hardcore Country gimmick, she looks amazing in this outfit.
at 2:33 am
What kind of sorcery is this? Mickie didnt botch the ddt on gail lol about time
at 2:34 am
That DDT was awesome, Gail sold that well in a all around great match. Imagine if there was no commercial break?
at 2:37 am
I find it funny how people were going bat shit when Eve started to wave but Gail just stole Kaitlyn’s finisher & only 3 people have said anything.
puppies Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 2:43 am
Cause Eve’s a diva, they can do no right!
MickieJamesFan07 Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 2:46 am
Because those people are idiots. There’s no such thing as “stealing” something in wrestling. If Eve “stole” the wave well then so did Madison from Sharmell.
See how this looks so damn fucking stupid??
puppies Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 2:55 am
Exactly what I was thinking when the whole “stealing the wave” thing happened. Like, how many wrestlers point to the crowd or do the rock and roll sign? Lol
Spideywebby Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 2:58 am
Yes no such thing as ‘stealing’ moves. But Eve doesn’t even look comfortable waving around so it stands out more.
DJ8946 Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 3:02 am
I think she does it better than Madison.. Madison just has that big ugly smile & waves the whole time. Eve actually does she signature entrance pose, smiles, waves, frown, waves, & goes back to smiling.

I know what you mean. I only said that because of these dumbasses on here.
Choko Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 6:27 am
DJ8946, are you dumb? Gail has been using that move for months, way before Kaitlyn even became a main diva. Watch the episode of TNA 8.09.12 before you make dumbass claims.

No bitch are you dumb?
S1 Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 7:07 am
She didn’t steal that move. She has done that move before to Brooke in early 2012.
I didn’t notice the whole Eve “copying thing” until she put a Diva’s head between her legs and starting slamming her head into the ground. That and plus the wave made me thing Madison Rayne.
theprincedann Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 9:21 am
DJ8946
I don’t understand. How does Eve do the act better than Madison? Madison has been doing it for years. Its original to her.
You seem ready to defend WWE Divas over everythin.
Latin/Mexican divas who dance. Rosa is better in every way than Sarita and Rosita right? Brooke Tessmacher is better known as a WWE Diva right? Kelly Kelly is a better ring technician than Mickie?
As far as women’s wrestling goes, there is no comparison. So stop trying to pull WWE in front of TNA.
DJ8946 Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 12:05 pm
Uhm no. I love Sarita her over Rosa anyday. Brooke Tessmacher couldn’t even be better know as a Diva because that was not her ring name. & Dont even get me started on Kelly. Btw Madison didn’t make the wave up! Therefore its not stealing or coping.
Choko Reply:
January 5th, 2013 at 12:43 pm
Oh, so you’re trying to say that Kaitlyn made the gutbuster?
Don’t make jokes you child.
at 2:38 am
That leg drop to Brooke looked nasty but I’m glad she’s fine. The knockouts always have good matches and the ddt by Mickie was one of her best ones. The only problem with the knockouts is deemphasis on storylines and lack of new talent!
at 2:44 am
Isn’t the top that Mickie wearing goes with one of her wrestling gear in wwe?

Good, cause i was like i seen that top before. lol. Mickie never match sometimes.

Great match. A 4 ladies shined. I thought Brooke was actualy hurt after the legdrop. It looked iked tara was asking her if she was okay. Thrilled Mickie won.Her and Brooke are too much HOTTNESS in one ring.
KO’s need depth
Crazy_J Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 4:08 am
I thought Brooke was injure as well, glad she wasn’t!
I agree about the match as well, I really enjoyed it. I really like Brooke and Mickie as a team, they are fun and energetic.

Brookes cross body was amazing and that ddt was great.

I want to like Brooke, but too me she just comes off as the poor mans Candice Michelle. BIG TIME.
Lita-Sault-666 Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 10:07 am
I see a lot of people posting this on various boards, but i never quite see how they get to there point. Candice did improve a lot in the ring, Oui, but not quite as much as Brooke has. Tessmacher also has a more unique move set than Candice did and i think she’s better on the mic too.
Her entrance is very similar, ill give you that, but other than that i dont see how Brooke is the ‘poor mans Candice’
CandiceChampion Reply:
January 5th, 2013 at 1:04 am
That’s your opinion, I’m just saying I see candice within Brooke & I think she could do better with her character debelopment because she has talent.
at 4:04 am
And this is coming from a candice fan???? Tessmacher moves better in the ring and is more likable. Candice was very generic and was always botching and see where that got her retired in her prime, so a poor mans candice michelle would be an understatement. BIG TIME!
rodneyclint Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 5:58 am
Candice turned out to be a pretty solid model-turned-wrestler, especially by the standards the WWE, and to a much smaller degree, TNA have set. Yeah, she botched but so do a lot of people and she’s not the only person to have it happen in their prime and stop their evolution as a wrestler. It’s also silly to compare these two women and I think the only reason people even started it is because of the new coat Tessmacher wears in her entrance and how she takes it off. Other than that and their modeling backgrounds, they aren’t very similar at all.
CandiceChampion Reply:
January 5th, 2013 at 1:07 am
My comment wasn’t to compare them, what I meant to come across was that I see Brooke Ripping from Candice & she shouldn’t be doing that with her character because she’s got something & shes setting herself up for a downfall if she continues with it. My Opinion.
at 5:05 am
That’s your opinion, I’m just stating mine. Us Women’s wrestling fans will never see eye to eye.
Candice may have missed a spots here & there but she proved herself worthy because like it or not she held the wwe women’s championship & they didn’t just give that title to anybody.
I’m not Bashing Brooke, although im not a fan… I think she’s got something & I think she’s the future of the Knockouts Division but I think she’s setting herself up for a downfall if she doesnt find an original character.

Didn’t Harvey Wippleman hold the wwe womens title??? Correct me if I’m wrong… To each their own,but have you seen her in interviews??? She’s very charismatic you can’t fault her if she’s not getting character development you gotta fault tna for not letting her talk and giving the knockouts depth when tna realizes that,thats when the ball will start rolling.
CandiceChampion Reply:
January 5th, 2013 at 1:02 am
Yeah, But WWE’s Never Been Great With Booking The Women’s Titles. He was the only misstep & most would agree
CandiceChampion Reply:
January 5th, 2013 at 1:10 am
& Also Im Not Saying She Doesn’t Have Character, SHE DOES. Brooke Is Talented. She’s A 2x Time Knockouts Champ, isn’t She? & That’s Exactly Why I Don’t Think she should be ripping from Candices Character Because She Could Develop An Original Character Of Her Own.
rodneyclint Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 6:05 am
Character does not solely depend on material given, it is also up to the wrestler to use the time they do get to their full advantage. I actually think Tessmacher is fine as the rookie babyface even if it is a bit generic becase quite simply, the other girls have characters. The problem with the WWE is that no one has a distinct character so it becomes hard to get invested in them. With TNA its fine because there is not a lack of diversity between the girls, so having one fill the generic babyface works out.
igotthatpma123 Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 6:25 am
Not if your trying to build her as your premeire face she should not be the generic baby face she should be that girl who beams with sheer awesomeness sorry you dont become a legend by being generic not saying she is. I’m sure as time goes on and she experinces being a heel and the wonders it does for you and she has a little dirt on her hands it’ll give her an edge.
rodneyclint Reply:
January 4th, 2013 at 7:10 am
It has been proven to work actually, the ‘E did it with Trish. After she won the title for the first time and became the center of the division she was able to get over and carry it to a certain degree, despite being the smiley, generic babyface. However, during this time the Diva’s roster was similar to how TNA’s Knockouts are now with everyone being pretty different so the happy, smiley babyface routine worked out just fine for Trish. She got to show fire and toughness later with the likes of Victoria and Jazz, but she was in that role for a while before that so back off of Tessmacher, she’s got it.

Gail Kim is Awesome but I want new talent now!!!!!!!
