TNA iMPACT! Wrestling

I watch impact wrestling every Sunday night at 9pm and i have found it to be a lot better than WWE because of the talent and the story. One thing I would like to change is; the show needs to be more explosive and showy, they need Pyrotechnics, more big screens and more lights (profile spots .etc) The show is generally very good at using the talent and i'm loving the six sided ring! It is more 'realistic' than WWE and others, as it looks like they are using a bit of MMA in the wrestling, this makes it seem kind of real sometimes, like they use all kinds of 'real life' submissions and they have MMA style striking. But the only drawbacks are the size of the shows and how they put it on.

Here I'm writing the different ERAs of IMPACT Wrestling-

2002-2004: Rising Era 2005-2009: Golden " 2010-2012: WCW " 2013-2014: Screwed " 2015-2017: Surviving " 2018-present: New Beginning "

The 1st episode of 2019's Twitch.tv (1/11/19) was THE BEST IMPACT episode in YEARS..!!

Looking forward what's stored by Don Callis & Scott D'Amore.

TNA Wrestling is currently in a state of confusion . The knockout wrestlers align themselves with WWE , but the men continue aligning with enemy ROH/AEW/REV PRO/NJPW. The wrestlers don't know if they should wrestle , or leap over the back and chest chop. The brightness of the cameras ruin the picture , and they are take shots at the ceiling lights. TNA Wrestling at their best includes their storylines , original talent , pay per views , and finishers.

The biggest mistake TNA Wrestling has going is this low quality look. To be successful in professional wrestling you have to fix the quality of the show. High definition 4k is a standard nowadays. TNA Wrestling takes a seat behind WWE and Aew , but they could outperform both. Champions like Moose , speedos , Jordynne Grace , Lucha Libre , Mustafa Ali , ROh , and Johnathon Gresham gives TNA Wrestling a confusing look. TNA Wrestling must stay consistent , focus on strengths , avoid filler content , avoid wasting pay per views , and avoid collaborating with Rival companies.

I have to admit I did not start watching TNA until they debuted on Spike TV a few months ago, but I have been impressed. As a lifelong WWE fan and wrestiling fan, I have enjoyed different aspects of all different promotions throughout the years. WWE has excelled in the "larger than life" entertainment aspect of wrestling. WCW when it was successful featured what WWE was doing, just with different characters. ECW was of course the outlet for furstrated fans who were sick of what the big 2 were doing. Then you have TNA, which is building a grassroots organizations based on one thing, IN RING PERFORMANCE.

The bottom line with this business is that in the end, it all comes back to how you can perform in the ring. TNA is wisely signing younger, smaller wrestlers and featuring a different type of in ring style than what WWE is doing. At the same time, they are not trying to compete with WWE, which is extremely smart. TNA is akin to what ECW was in the 90s, not in terms of style, but in terms of its approach to its place in the world. What I mean by that is that even though TNA has people like Jeff Jarrett, Raven, Rhino among other WWE or WCW guys, they realize that they cannot be going head to head with WWE.

I certainly enjoy watching TNA though for the action and its unique in ring content.

IMPACT on AXS is a consistent show, which is the best compliment I can say about it. It's a consistent show week to week, but there has not been a significant turnaround. Some of the content is derivative from the WWE. Tasha Steelz and Kiera Hogan are clearly a rip-off of Sasha Banks. Kylie Rae's happy-go-lucky gimmick is blatantly ripped-off from Bayley. And The Rascalz logo is derived from the New Day's logo and colors. IMPACT has given Ken Shamrock a second career as a wrestler and the creative team didn't tinker with Tenille Dashwood's gimmick too much; it's the same as her character in the WWE. But the fans who gush over IMPACT on Twitter and Freakin' Awesome Networks are paid IMPACT employees who aren't legitimate fans.
