1. The Authority did much worse to him than the Wyatt Family so him just dropping that feud to go after them doesn’t ring true. And actually makes me dislike Daniel Bryan a little. Makes me question if he’ll even get revenge on the Wyatts, one of 3MB might spill coffee on him and he’ll go after them before he finishes them off.

2. Big Show sucks! Not really but I just don’t find him at all sympathetic (he punched Dusty Rhodes!). And it’s more than that, I just want someone different.

Yeah, but Bryan has a chance of beating The Wyatts, he knows The Authority will just screw him. Plus, apparently WWE are viewing this story as less of a 'moving Bryan and Punk down the card' thing, and more of a 'moving The Wyatts up'. The fact that Bryan is being seen as a step-up from Kofi and Miz and Kane shows how much they believe in him.

And The Big Show doesn't suck! He's been one of the best parts of the whole story I think. We've had Bryan/Orton for 3 shows in a row, Big Show is the someone different.

- AJ Styles did get the opportunity to jump to WWE now that he’s about to become a free agent, but for a very low price. Styles’ short-term contract with TNA is set to expire at the end of the year and WWE reportedly did make an offer a few weeks ago, but for about 20% of what he currently makes in TNA.

WTF? Either AJ is a massive earner in TNA and they offered him a standard lower card guy contract or WWE deliberately lowballed him.

He's a massive earner.

TNA's advertising for a new writer/producer:

Looks like the only real requirement is 3+ years experience in writing for TV and being able to con TNA execs into thinking you're the man with the plan.

With any luck, they'll continue to push Langston, Rhodes, and maybe even Axel (if he can get out of the orbit of Heyman, who I feel is really starting to overstay his welcome).

I’m all for seeing more of those guys. I totally disagree on Heyman though. He’s really entertaining, I think that feud with Punk just went too long.

That’s no reason to give up, he should be fighting harder. The way you put it makes him seem like a coward. And being a step above Miz and Kofi isn’t saying much. :smt102

I said I don’t really think he sucks. He’s just no fun to watch, not quite a black hole like Miz. And he keeps stealing the “yes” thing, what a asshole!

It'd be hilarious if they hired him just to ruin their storyline. :lol:

I've been watching Impact with Connor tonight and he commented on how he thought Ace and Eights were stupid. I was hard pressed to disagree with him, made me wonder are they the worst faction/group in the history of wrestling?

Do you remember the Nexus? :lol:

WWE's the Authority is worse IMO. Last thing wrestling needs is the McMahon/Helmsely era part 2 so that the now corporate HHH can continue to belittle and bury talent.

Actually I just caught up with the A&E beatdown segment.

I think that's the first time the booking of A&E surprised me in a good way :lol:

SOMEBODY is forgetting the Oddities...

Aces & Eights were good as a dominant stable, just after Bully Ray revealed he was the President, but then TNA started removing everyone that was interesting from the group. DOC, Devon, D'Lo, even Mr Anderson, who I like more than most.

Now that it's down to like, 3 people, and one of those 3 is Bischoff, it's terrible.

Chris Hero is done with WWE. He might bring a much needed spark to ROH if he returned there.

I would still say Ace and Eights are worse then most of those above. At least most of those you mentioned had established big name players. A&E had Devon and Bubba which are legit wrestling stars, the rest of A&E were nothing but scrubs, has beens, and never was's.
