Yes please. Laryngitis is boring me immensely. No matter how hard he tries, he will never be able to be "McMahon-esque".

No doubt he will beat Cena at the PPV after Lesnar interferes.

Replace Lesnar with Big Show and I think you are right.

I think one of them, if not both, will have some kind of impact. After all, they are not "technically" working for the company at the moment. It seemed to click when there was a big deal made of "any WWE wrestler cannot interfere".

30 minutes of the new hour will be Laryngitis f****** up on the mic some more and the other 30 minutes will be Brodus Clay's "extended intro".

I'd like the 3rd hour to be Michael Cole trying to decide whether he is actually a heel or a face. Either way, he annoys the s*** out of me.

On a strange note, in his new shoot Val Venis is wearing a Rhinos shirt.

TNA sign Brooke Hogan who will help wrestlers to develop their characters, help with backstage promos and act as a musical consultant.

The only reason I can't see it being Lesnar is because they only have 30 live dates for him too work and they want him at WM they have already blasted through 5 so I doubt they will waste 1 on a run in!
Well at least if they had any brains they wouldn't.

It's big show, why xdo you think he's been fired.


You know, ideally, if you wanted to get best use out of lesmar, I'd have him come back every big ppv and destroy all the top faces, generally wreck the place and end up having punk face off with him at wrestlemania, therefore really REALLY making punk a full on superstar.


Well, as much as you can be without a win over triple h

From May 31st Impact Wrestling is starting 1 hour earlier and is going live.

The shows seem to have improved since Russo went, and switching to live instead of taping 2/3 shows over a couple of days takes out spoilers, plus there will be more energy in the shows as that is the nature of live TV. Now they just need to get out of the Impact Zone more often.
