Well taker doesn't have that long left in him and he's made it clear to WWE he wants his streak broken in his last match, but I think it'll be Cena to do it to be fair.[DOUBLEPOST=1396044668][/DOUBLEPOST]
Definitely, as annoyed as I would be, it will 100% be Cena.

Well that's not his decision to be honest. Ultimately it's Vince who makes the call and Taker either goes with it or doesn't appear.

Secondly, do you not think they put these stories out to make people think the streak could actually end and buy the PPVs.

Yeah, I get that, but he's said if he streak doesn't end he feels like he needs to keep coming back, I understand it's not his decision but he's been there that long I'm sure Vince would respect that decision.

It's better for WWE to have the streak in tact and sell merchandise on the back of it. And as Taker will get royalties I'm sure he won't mind too much.
 
Can't we just have this daft "streak" ended now then so he doesn't feel like he has to keep coming back?

The irony of you saying "You cannot accuse TNA of over-spending and relying on tying massive megastars to contracts in the millions . Why do you think they god rid of Hogan and Sting? They were a drain and offered nothing" is hilarious, they've only been out the door 2 or 3 months man :lol:.

Not that I expect to see it but I certainly am of the opinion it will take longer than 2-3 months for TNA to see any gain or loss in the money.

Joe-B said:
For years they kept bringing in "megastars" like Christian Cage, Kurt Angle and MVP who are known for what? Being in WWE and we're hardly talking about jobbers here.

Christian Cage was barley around for 5 minutes before the money grabbing bassa went back to the WWE when he realized he wasn't going to have to 'slum it' in TNA.

For years they relied on washed out talent to bring punters in. Flair, Nash, Hall, Waltman/X-Pac/123 Kid, Scott Steiner who were only there for a big payday. And the majority of them were known for being WCW guys,

That really is the pot calling the kettle black. If anyone is known for taking WCW talent it is the WWE.

Joe-B said:
they even tried to re-do The nWo.

Immortal was nothing like the NWO.

Don't get me started on AJ Styles copying Sting's loner/crow gimmick from 1997 towards the end of his run in TNA that had to be changed back because it was shite.

The two gimmicks are as different as chalk and cheese. Stings gimmick from 1997 is more reminiscent of the rock group Kiss whereas the Lone Wolf gimmick AJ adopted was just him but basically 'pissed off'. There is absolutely no similarities whatsoever between Sting's image in 1997 and AJ's in 2013.

Also there is no proof you have at all that it was ditched because it was shite. You are only having a go at TNA because they are easy prey for people like you because they aren't worth trillions and are doing well like the WWE. Admit it. You don't want to see TNA do well. That is why you always do them down.

Yeah, I trash TNA because they aren't worth trillions but go and watch independant wrestling in the north east of england :rolleyes: Also I wasn't talking about Immortal, was talking about The Band/Wolfpac...Hall,Nash,X-Pac.

Reckon Bryan v HHH, Bray vs Cena, Taker v Brock will all be good matches. Shield should be able to put a decent match on the undercard.
Click to expand...

Aye, Bryan vs HHH is probably the one i'm looking forward to most but the rest of the card isn't great. Divas invitational battle royal ffs. I'm a bit disappointed Cody and Goldust aren't in that 4 way tag team match too, it's not long ago they were champions and they were putting on some good matches.

I wanted them to be in a feud by now, they'd have some class matches against each other. They're in a throwaway programme with Fandango at the moment. Waste imo, although some of Goldust's antics have been hilarious with Summer Rae and Fandango.[DOUBLEPOST=1396228708][/DOUBLEPOST]

Looking forward to TNA slammiversary or whatever it's called?

Haha, as you know I watched Impact for the first time in god knows when earlier. Truly, truly terrible. Gave up 2 thirds of the way through after only two matches and some truly woeful promos. The ring was dirty as well, that's embarrassing imo.

Goldust has been funny recently I agree, it's sad to see them competing in random singles matches with Fandango though, probably compounded by having the usos as tag champions as I'm not really a fan of them.

Nothing wrong with the uso's like. Well deserved tag team title run. Entertaining to watch and being something different to the division.

Aye, they put on some decent matches and deserved a run with the titles but i'm just not a fan. Can't really put my finger on why.
