Let's revisit the TNA Monday Night "War"

[JerseyBoy23]

1st hour that went unopposed against RAW is still some of their most viewed hours of their 15 year history but that's the only nice thing I can say about that.

 

[El Guapo]

They had Val Venis winning matches lol

"Hello Ladies" went to "Ladies.... I'm here"

Monday Night War? More like Monday Night Massacre


One of the problems outside of The Earth already being scorched during the first Monday Night War, was that the fans actually believed that the 2 viewing audiences of Raw and Impact were not being shared and there is an untapped million+ viewers to be gained. Yes, the first night drew a large number for TNA, but then you had the hyped return of Bret Hart against a live Impact episode against Raw. Once that novelty wore off, the new eyes who watched both shows disappeared and the fans of both were forced to choose what to watch with Raw being the popular choice.


The TNA Monday Night War was really Hogan and Bischoff trying to snatch the company from under Dixie and failing in the process.

drove that bytch straight off the cliff..

 

[folasade]

They waited WAY too long to do it

They should not have. At all. Everything has to be top notch if a company were to do that and they needed an amazing amount of buzz with a strong fresh roster.

They did a 1.5 and had everything you just named after the January 4th episode though

 

[LurkNowitzki]

There was a point where the crowd chanted TNA during a Raw segment (Trump/O Donnell). Then again, I would rather watch TNA fukkery over that segment to be honest

By far worst segment in Raw history.

 

[Chris Cool]

i know you, you're...


.......

let's not get caught up with old names


i was the only nikka at the big valbowski debut?

 

[Potential Spam]

All I remember is The Beautiful People playin' poker and Lacey sayin' "I only have all these heart people...this sucks." Thought it was a dig at Bret coming back to Raw that night.

It was a massacre in the way the Boston massacre was one


TNA couldn't even bust a grape in a food fight

 

[FunkDoc1112]

I admit, I got my hopes up thinking they might restore the feeling.

After the first episode though...

 

[Rell84shots]

I was hyped for it and hate it failed miserably, i seriously want the wwe to have some legit competition.

 

[Tide Run This]

Daniels was on fire before this and they bring Val Venis in to bury him.
Nasty Boys being on TV to do anything
Desmond Wolfe disappearing
AJ being turned into some knock off Flair
Abyss making Hoegan in WCW vs the Faces of Fear look cool
The NWO looking flabby as fukk
Hoegan burying Jarrett for no reason late in the 1/4 episode was awkward as fukk he came off as a heel
Foley was pointless S
Samoa Joe getting kidnapped with no payoff

 

[Tide Run This]

TNA was at its peak with the Main Event Mafia running shyt
