Looks like Scott Hall is going to wrestle at Genesis. It's the Outsiders vs Beer Money. But knowing Scott, he will probably no show...

haha so true I mean who's going to pay to see this wrestle? :rofl:

WOW, TNA is made up of dinosaurs and drug/drink abusers. So much for the talented roster which saw very little air-time.

yeah Kazarian,Sabin,Shelley,Creed,Lethal all amazing superstars who should be being pushed! :(

[RageOfFury]

I gotta say though I was stunned that Hogan had the nWo theme("Rockhouse") as his entrance song. Also, Bischoff had his nWo theme("White Train") as his entrance song. Doesn't WWE own all WCW's media library? :blink:

[Rappy Veteran]

I believe they do, they did it so to "kick" wwe in the nuts with a statement of "well we can do what we want" :p

[truba11a]

won't wwe sue?

[Rappy Veteran]

won't wwe sue?

probably not because it will show they are very petty, any other event and they probably would of done

[Victor Rambo]

Following Jeff Hardy and Shannon Moore's surprising appearances on TNA Impact last night, there are currently unsubstantiated reports that Matt Hardy and Hurricane Helms could consider following Hardy and Moore to TNA.

Bleacher Report reports that Hardy might consider requesting his WWE release to be closer to Hardy and be on the TNA schedule.

Today, Matt Hardy posted two items on Twitter that helps fuel the idea that Hardy is frustrated with the current WWE schedule.

"Two hours into a media morning in Louisville & I remember why I dislike mornings & having to put the 'game face' on when I don't really have it," Hardy said.

Hardy added: "3 more radio interviews & I'm outta here.. Thank God. Oh wait, then I have 12 hours worth of TV to do after, ugh. Whatya do?"

Last night's 3 hour special edition of TNA Impact, featuring the debut of Hulk Hogan, finished with a 1.5 cable rating. We should have a breakdown of the quarter hours when that information becomes available.

A 1.5 lol I figured it wouldn't go any higher than normal for them sadly.

[Rappy Veteran]

lol epic fail :rofl:

I believe WWE did a 4.7 or around that!

[RageOfFury]

A 1.5 lol I figured it wouldn't go any higher than normal for them sadly.

WWE did only 3.37. Yes it's more than double what TNA did, but still sucky with Bret Hart returning after 12 years.

[Rappy Veteran]

WWE did only 3.37. Yes it's more than double what TNA did, but still sucky with Bret Hart returning after 12 years.

oh I thought it did around 4.7...that's not to bad as long as it stays at least double in front off Impact I'll be happy!

[Victor Rambo]

Hogan's tna entrance music was awesome. :D

[LOC Veteran]

No Jeff Hardy's entrance music was awesome! Maybe he'll use it at his trial to sway the jury....

BTW, anyone find it ironic they had 3 young girls run after Hardy last night - meanwhile Hardy isn't exactly what I'd call a great role model for kids? Mmmm drugs are ok kids! :|
