these are always fun to watch minus Michael Hayes taking the conversation everywhere but on topic to talk about himself all the time.





-P-

I don't mind him that much because you can tell he loves talking about wrestling and knows allot about the old days and history of the business

One of the best ones was the NWO roundtable....because rather than bashing WCW it explains the real reason why they tanked and it kind of shows you in hindsight why TNA will never prosper to it's full potential

They were still bashing WCW tho, they tried to spin it that WCW was this company funded by a major media conglomerate in Turner trying to kill off the hard-working, family-owned private owned WWF. Like Vince never tried to kill off other promotions and take food off other people's table :childplease:.

Michael Hayes turns everything he talks about into the Freebirds. No one gives a shyt about the Freebirds in 2012.

The worst ever was the tag-team round table discussion. It turned into some bullshyt with Nick Bockwinkle, Michael Hayes and Pat Patterson all claiming they were in the greatest tag-teams of all-time while saying the Road Warriors, Steiners, etc were all overrated. They had the nerve saying Bockwinkle/Ray Stevens and Pat Patterson/Ray Stevens are top 5 tag-teams of all-time. Half the documentary was about Ray Stevens. WHO THE fukk CARES ABOUT RAY STEVENS? Michael Hayes kept spewing on and on about the Freebirds like they're the best tag-team of all-time. I was watching it with a combination of :beli: :rudy: :comeon: the entire time.

That was by far the worst of these I've ever seen.

^^i dont remember that one.:laugh: i tend to just skip over the legends roundtable nowadays. it became too much to bear.

i remember the stables episode turned into a four horsemen lovefest. they probably went a total of 12 minutes not talking about the horsemen on that episode. and 8 of those 12 minutes were spent dissing the NWO.

dont get even me started on the heatseekers episode where they picked and choosed who they wanted to acknowledge. they conveniently didnt even mention the biggest heatseeker of them all - shawn michaels. its like, why even bother doing this show?

TNA will never reach its full potential because the casual wrestling fan(aka where the money is at) isnt interested in a newer promotion. you just cant compete with all these years of stamford brainwashing.

thats their real problem. the only way a promotion can come up and surpass the wwe's stranglehold on the mainstream is if its some super-goat chit with ridiculous amounts of money behind it.

I gotta admit that JR trying to explain to Ahmed that Goldust doing mouth-to-mouth on him was a storyline and he would get his payback soon as funny. Said to Ahmed don't pop a cap and Goldust left right after that segement :russ:

Breh, the stables one was probably the 2nd worst to the tag-team one. Flair just kept going on and on about how great he thinks him and the Horsemen really were. If I remember correctly, Tazz was pretty much sucking off Flair during the entire thing asking Flair stupid ass questions feeding into Flair talking about how great he was. Flair took shots at Sid, Roma and a few others too for no good reason. Foley said something about a stable he was a part of early in his career only for Flair to say something like "that's not a real faction." I felt so bad for Foley. Foley kept it high brow and just kept it moving, hardly didn't say anything. JR seemed genuinely annoyed throughout all of this too since he couldn't get a word in since Flair just kept talking about how great the Horsemen/Evolution were or badmouthing the NWO/Hogan. JR did say the Hart Foundation was his favorite stable though :smugdraper:
