You never know. The last one didn't look great on paper, but it turned out to be pretty fucking good.

Well, all the injuries are absurd though. No Orton, Cena, Bryan, Rollins, that's touuuugh to overcome

There's a "gif'ed up" moment of two guys doing a secret handshake with Konnan looking on. Pretty much all you need to know if you're on the outside of LU. Plus Johnny Mundo rules

I thought last years was pretty shite. Only decent match on the whole card was the one I was least looking forward to (not including any divas matches).

I marked out like 30 times.

Rusev must be a really cool guy to get to bang Lana. Honestly think he's got amazing babyface potential down the line.

Becky Lynch could be the closest thing the WWE has to a badass submission machine in the female division. They really, really want Ronda Rousey, but why not make their own?

TNA are being really petty about AJ Styles signing with the WWE.

I was thinking the other day: With the WWE being bitten by the injury bugs lately, what do you think the chances are that they'll go to Rey Mysterio with a big six-month deal to come in and work with The New Day or Kevin Owens or something?

What are they doing?

AJ Styles has always been synonymous with TNA and TNA synonymous with AJ Styles. AJ helped build the foundation of IMPACT WRESTLING, and his phenomenal body of work lives in our rich history - something we are very proud of.

In the last few weeks, rumors have swirled about AJ Styles, his future and TNA Wrestling. Fans have asked for the status and wrestling media have made numerous inquiries.

For the past several months, AJ and TNA were involved in serious discussions to bring him back home to TNA. Creative discussions escalated and two additional wrestlers, Drew Hankinson and Chad Allegra, were enthusiastically added.

These discussions culminated on December 14th in Nashville, Tenn., where all attended a meeting at Dixie Carter's home. A handshake and written deal between AJ, Drew, Chad and TNA was agreed upon and signed by all. Start dates were determined, creative decided, merchandise designed and plane tickets purchased.

Over the Christmas holiday, and after the lawyers finalized the long form agreement, all communication with TNA stopped.

AJ's lawyer contacted TNA and stated the wrestlers had changed their mind and would not be honoring their commitment to TNA.

They are claiming Aj made a deal in dec

As he prepares to take a year off from the ring, TNA has reportedly offered a new deal to Kurt Angle. According to PWInsider, the new deal would be for a non-wrestling role and would have Angle associated with TNA as an ambassador and the face of the company.

Angle would also work with younger talents to help them improve. The idea would be for Angle to be a "living legend" who's always around. It was also noted that Angle has not accepted the deal yet.

Which means everybody will try to steal the show and prove they can do it without Cena.

Hate that Lucha Underground left Univision as their Spanish station. Dont get El Rey and didnt mind the spanish commentary. Just watched the Season 2 trailer and am really looking foeward to it and hope I can watch it.

Yeah. So much for that...

PWI had an in-depth article regarding how the situation between AJ Styles and TNA deteriorated to the point that TNA felt it was perfectly fine to make it public and trash Styles a bit.

According to PWI, talks started in November with TNA wanting Styles to be signed by the time they'd debut on POP in January. Anderson and Gallows got involved from a suggestion by one of the sides in the talks.

All three supposedly had a personal meeting with Dixie in December over potential contract details and debut storylines. TNA claims all three signed a deal while all three denied it actually happening. The big key is no lawyers for either side were involved so its very likely this deal was just a non-legally binding "gentleman's agreement" instead.

Once Styles' lawyer got involved, whatever deal was made was likely voided since TNA knew his lawyer would be against any deal made without his involvement beforehand. Anderson and/or his lawyer likely rejected the deal due to the lower than expected offer given.

Around the same time, the WWE got involved and basically outbid TNA which is why all three (plus Nakamura) are going to the WWE. TNA got furious once Styles' lawyer said the talks were off and hinted a deal with WWE was already done.

Being rumored TNA might consider legal action against Styles and the WWE but would need to prove the documents signed by all three guys were legit contracts.

This makes them sound like whiney bitches, TNA needs to just close already.

Going to be interesting how the Wwe addresses this if at all.

A letter of intent isn't a deal, and they probably used it as leverage against WWE. Also, Anderson is under contract, so have fun with those tampering charges

That's a well done, almost hypnotic gif there good sir.

No its still a good show and a wrestling rosters that pretty good to. You cant blame them for trying to get the hottest free agents on the market. Really dont see any thing they done wrong in the situation other than tampering which probably wasnt that big of a deal if it was just a verbal agreement.

Just watched Paragon Pro Wrestling and its not bad. Gangrel is about the worst talent they have I believe.
