Fake belts? Money in the piggy bank?

Why is this guy demeaning his wrestlers (The Dudleys) and calling wrestling titles "fake"??? We know the shit is fake Hogan. But... I don't know if I understand the angle here.

It doesn't even really fit. He didn't fire the Dudley's. TNA is royally fucked.

The show is trying to do 2 things
1. promote the product/event/business
2. take you behind the scenes of the event

and thats where the confusion comes in. The guys are adlibing like "this is all really going on!", but its a work. How is hogan going to talk about fake belts, but then samoa joe is talking about how jarrett doesnt know real mma? huh? Are you guys making a tv show about an entertainment event, or is it a real athletic competition? if the belts are fake, why are these other two dudes funkin?

The clip quoted a dude saying "hogan & bischoff sign my checks, not dixie" Panda energy signs the checks, and hogan is a spokesman for Rent-a-center, hes not signing anything but his own paystub.

Its not a bad show, or at least from what I saw of that clip. But it seems like the energy put into it could be focused on making Impact better and marketing it to the audience theyre looking for.

That shot at the Dudleys, I hope hogan cleared it with them. They got mad respect for legends including hogan but at the level the dudleys are, they... nay, Bubba will reserve the right to pull his card and smash hogans face meanwhile d-von will be watching on the side, sippin a smoothie from his gym talking "you shouldnt a said that terry"

It's the truth, yeah... But that's like having the writers of Glee use air time to argue about who they're going to fire from their CLEARLY fictitious show because they're not testing well with audiences.

It's fucking stupid and counter-productive. If all the belts that The Dudley's won are "fake", then what does that make Hardy's Diva belt, and why should I give a fuck about it, or him, for the two hours prior to the "real" show?

TNA Reaction is nothing more than a way to let the main event run over the top of the hour, and then bounce around shots in the dark hoping something will stick creatively.

Watching anything TNA does lately is like watching A Clockwork Orange except with less lovable characters and no surreal ambiance.

I could swear just two weeks ago it was Bischoff doing the MMA gimmick. They seem to have completely forgotten about that, and made Jarrett the MMA guy instead.

Vintage TNA.
