X-zero Posted February 10, 2018 Report Share Posted February 10, 2018 Konnan probably was just protecting Rey from one of those new deals that sent most of the main eventers running away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classiq. Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Gail Kim was on a recent episode of Keepin it 100 with Konnan, who will be moving to Westwood Ones The Jericho Network. During the show, Gail (who now works in a backstage capacity since her in-ring retirement) mentioned top Stardom womens star Io Shirai was on Impacts radar; you can read a few transcribed highlights below: They said WWE didnt pick her up because she had some kind of injury, and she is a kick-ass, bad-ass wrestler. Someone brought her name up to me and they said, hey, we need a Japanese wrestler , that would be awesome. And so I asked Rebel, because I heard she came from Stardom, so Rebel went over there and she went and wrestled and trained really hard and I said, Hey, have you heard of this girl? Did you work with her in Stardom? and she said yes and she just put her over huge. She said, She is so good, and when she is comfortable with a girl, they go balls to the wall. And she said, You would be so impressed. Gail reacts to Konnans comments about Shirai being a high flyer: And you know what, thats funny that you said that because thats the one thing that Ive noticed that theres kind of a lack of right now. We dont have a high flyer in Impact. Shirai was previously considered as a WWE prospect and even reportedly announced she was leaving Stardom to sign with the company. Late last year, it was reported that WWE decided not to offer Shirai a contract due to a neck issue that was discovered during medical testing. http://www.mandatory.com/wrestlezone/news/923831-io-shirai-on-impact-wrestlings-radar-john-cena-shares-a-special-moment-with-make-a-wish-kid-at-raw-video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-zero Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Don't know much of Io Shirai but hopefully doesn't come to Impact Wrestling. The women's division is in a pretty bad state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fight Me. Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 I'd imagine she makes great money in Japan, being the ace of Stardom and all. Plus, not sure Impact knows about her heart issue WWE discovered as well. That doesn't seem to be as talked about as her neck injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fight Me. Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 I lost Pop TV recently, so I downloaded the Pluto TV app since they advertise it so much and it's free lol. I've noticed they've got a channel just playing classic TNA content all day, which is cool, but does anyone know if they air Impact live at the same time as Pop does? I text with my friend every week during Impact, it'll suck if we can't watch at the same time anymore. Update: Sadly, it is not. It's airing an episode from a month ago at 8. Still cool to be able to watch classic TNA content for free though on this and on their Twitch channel...Why do they have a network again now?

Generations Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 This bat situation is really worrisome, tbh. Sami wants to act like it's all cool. Like it was a "freak accident"...and he spoke to Eddie...and they both agreed that it was an accident. But that really doesn't clear the air of the real problem. Dude put a full skull-crushing swing behind that bat. That never should have happened. Even if the bat connected flush with the chair, that would have been too much force for a wrestling spot. It was an accident...but it was also reckless. It was reckless beyond any logical reasoning. Only spot that comes close to this, is the classic frying pan spot from ECW. Even then, it was at least a flat surface. A baseball bat is made to deliver a crushing force to a small area...you should never swing a bat full tilt in the direction of a person...unless you actually want something really bad to happen.

Guest Fight Me. Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Quick backstory on this Abyss and Jimmy Jacobs feud pls Not much other than Jimmy Jacobs is just sick of Abyss running around as Joseph Park and now with his cousin Chandler Park (Ethan Page). So he introduced them to his cousin Kongo Kong and they want to bring the monster back out of Joseph Park. So far he's wrecked his office, destroyed Chandler and threatened their grandmother I believe. And now Father James Mitchell is back and thanked Jimmy Jacobs for doing what he had been unable to do for years and brought back Abyss. Now Abyss and Kongo will face in Monster's Ball to crown the true monster of Impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
