The second coming of the monday night wars, is TNA doomed to be the new WCW?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:No. TNA is cramming an almost 60 year old barely mobile Hulk Hogan down fans throats. It’s not 1985, no one cares about Hogan anymore. And lets not forget the 50 year old, lazy as hell Kevin Nash, who is not only a terrible wrestler but an absolute piece of shit human being (read Ring of Hell). WWE has two things going for it :everyone in the main event scene is under 50, and brand loyalty. People who have been watching WWE since they were kids are not going to leave it any time soon. In short, I can see TNA developing enough of a niche market to go up against WWE and survive, but I don’t see them overtaking WWE anytime soon. As a side note, nice to see another wrestling fan on Fluther. A lot of the smug types here don’t seem to understand that yes, we know it’s “fake” but we enjoy due to suspension of disbelief, the same thing anyone uses when watching tv or movies. Anyway, good topic.
