As boring as New Nexus was, let's be real, even Austin couldn't have gotten those misfits over. When Husky Harris is the muscle of your group there's nowhere to go but down.
not really up to scratch on E history past ruthless aggression era but wasnt new nexus the same line up as nexus sans barett? if the old group got over no need for punk's group to seem like the job squad.Which they essentially were

terrible analogy, there are numerous mom n pops record stores so to say 1 is in competition with itunes is asinine.However tna happens to be the only wrestling show apart from wwe with a tv deal in america/worlwide so that naturally puts them in the same argument of (global) wrestling programming

You are getting held up on stats.Of course from a monetary/ratings/fans whatever standpoint it will never be "competition" to the machine that is the E.But in this small bubble that is pro-wrestling we only have 2 on national/global tv.That automatically (no matter how ludicrous) puts them in the same conversation.

As long as Sting/Hogan/Angle are in TNA, they will continue to be covered with respect by every news site in existence.

In 1995 you had an entire building chanting "ECW" at a WWE event. in 2012, one guy barely got off a couple of audible "TNA" chants at Raw 1000. That's how bad the "competition" is

-DX segment...glad Sandow got some shine, Pac looked..., Gunn still in shape and can prolly get a job with them 2morrow, Roaddog still THEE mouthpiece, HBK losing his smile, hair, voice, religion all at once, HHH still thinks this is cool...yeah...

-Swagger is hitting all time lows

-AJ/Bryan thing wasn't worked right, especially if they're tryna keep Bryan heel and AJ face. Bryan got mad sympathy. And honestly, he CARRIED the segment from wedding to the rock bottom. And that's WITH The Rock and Punk on mics in-ring simultaneously.

-Bret Hart shows love to Perfect :to:

-Miz beats Christian in 5 minutes, wins belt, still heel...:snoop:

-Heyman straight sonning Ache and Stephen McMahon leading to getting attacked, Brock save, HHH comes out on top, remember guys...not even Cena could do that :beli:

-APA?! :krs: Vader and Sid one more 'gain? :ehh: Pee-ta

-Gene TV...Ryder is the new Sherlock Holmes

-Takers struggles with his hoody, touching brother-2-brother beatdown :heh:

-Cena first to lose, as it should be, he doesn't need the victory. Why Rock came with the save, who knows. Why Punk is considered a heel now, who knows. Last I remember, he don't like Rock neither. And why would he try and fight off Big Show, that's none of his business. And WHY oh WHY was Rock selling that clothesline like it was from Stan Hansen?? :why:

New Nexus was McGillicutty, Husky, Mason Ryan, Punk and Otunga. Only holdover from the original was Otunga.

Nah...you know WHY he's considered a heel. He was in the corner cowering, taking cheap pins and shortcuts, and then surprised attack the Rock from the back. When Austin did that shyt, he would turn around and get him. Not act all confused and shyt and then just explode with a clothesline while looking desperate:laugh:

"(4) BUT BRING IT ON! IN FRONT OF THE WORLD!! ROD-POD's RAW 1000 report! Aug.2nd have the BALLS TO SAY IT TO MY FACE. I'M LOOKING FOR U NOW!"

"I hate bullies and Men that are not Pro's and don't treat all others with respect. @KaitlynWWE is a wonderful laddy! U Picked the wrong guy!"
