[7/5] TNA Impact Thread: The Final Deletion (Link Added in OP)

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Broken Hardys Era had me watching Impact weekly again for the first time in years

Man that era of Impact was

• Eli Drake being the entire shyt
• Knockouts doing their thing
• EC3 showing his entire ass
• Having the feeling of Crossing the Line era of TNA
• Working with various UK/Japan promotions

Billy Corgan era Impact just felt like the closest we will ever get to 2004-09 TNA

One of the GOAT 'out of leftfield' angles of all time in wrestling

The reaction trailers where they had cats watching the footage before it dropped like made it unmissable.

It was the pandemic era 'cinematic match' before the pandemic.

Got to give Borash his props too. He's done a few of these without the Hardys now - The Steiner/Josh Matthews v Joseph Park/ Borash one never gets talked about, but it was funny as shyt.

In what fukking universe is the bolded accurate? TNA made Okada the Hamburgler and it was so bad that NJPW ended their working relationship with TNA until D'Amore and Don Callis had to literally crawl back to them and apologize profusely for how they presented Okada.
