WWE And TNA: 7 Worst Moments Of The Week (Jan 22)

2. Fact Of Life

What the hell is going on in TNA? This new era is not working out so far. Part of the reason may be because they have to tape 90 episodes in a row, so perhaps the effects of Jeff Jarrett and Dutch Mantell (if they'll have any) won't be seen until late 2018. But creatively the company is in a really weird spot, and they lack any sort of vision on where they want to take this thing.

We’re in some sort of weird post-Hardy wrestling world where characters can do supernatural things, and no one really seems to mind. The Fact of Life talk show had the DCC on as guests to open their briefcase. They refused to talk, though, and gesticulated (never thought I’d use that word twice in an article) wildly, and later had grins magically drawn on their faces, all for a gag. This is a supposed badass heel stable who is out to takeover the company...or at least they were, and they’ve been reduced to this nonsense.

Besides their involvement, the entire segment was just terrible. Eli Drake still won’t talk, so Tyrus had to carry the load, and interestingly, he kept calling briefcases “suitcases” even though they were clearly briefcases. Add in a bunch of canned laughter, and Trevor Lee suddenly losing 50 IQ points and it all came off as some sort of weird performance piece that was neither interesting or funny. It only damaged every character in it.
