10 Ways To Get TNA Over

2. Make Sense

This one should go without saying but as pro wrestling fans we know how often its overlooked. How many times as a fan have you been watching a show and you€™re left literally scratching your head. I still remember my first live pay per view event, Night of Champions 2011, following the Summer of Punk. It was the most exciting time in recently wrestling history, where the most talented performer in the business was truly capable of anything. How did WWE decide to take advantage of this once in a generation momentum? By pairing him up with a semi retired, power hungry, glory hog in HHH. All so two members of the Kliq could temporarily reunite and perfect the art of burying stars in yet another decade. Now TNA is certainly no saint when it comes to not making sense. Remember the whole 10-10-10 fiasco where Abyss kept claiming €œthey€ were coming? Logic would have dictated that it be some up and coming faction, that maybe included a debuting superstar to help improve ratings. What did it actually turn out to be? A reunited Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan, trying to recreate their magic as the guys in charge. Talk about glory hogging. They took a freshly turned heel Jeff Hardy, who couldn€™t cut a promo to save his life to be the leader of this stable. After their bullet proof explanation the following night of why this transpired, out comes Ric Flair and Fortune, TNA€™s version of Evolution, to confront the newly formed Immortal. Instead of having a battle of power and some potentially intriguing television play out over the coming weeks and months, they decided to hug it out immediately and form one giant Super Stable (patent pending) who were apparently in on it the whole time? I am not sure they still haven't made it all that clear. Either way, whether it€™s Punk/Nash, Fortune/Immortal or that absolutely inexplicable face turn from Hulk Hogan at the end of Bound For Glory 2011, what ever drastic moves you have planned to increase ratings, please for the collective sanity of the fans, have it make sense!
