They debut a sought-after free agent like Josh Alexander and have him pinned as clean as a sheet in his debut match. As Jim Cornette would say, Alexander now looks flatter than four o’clock; flatter than a plate full of piss.

Jobbing a guy out in his first appearance is as retarded a piece of booking as you’ll find.

Wasn’t that the infamous run when Nia injured the ring apron with her “hole!”?

I don't think so but maybe. It was when Nia put Lana through a table 7 or 8 weeks in a row.

No idea who that Alexander guy was.

"The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander was actually 1 of IMPACT/TNA's top stars

Was a triple crown champion there (World Champion, X Division Champion, Tag Team Champion)

In fact... he & another guy you may know already... Ethan Page... have the longest Tag Team Championship reign in IMPACT/TNA at 380 days

They were called The North (since they're both Canadians... or as we know it... soon to be the 51st state

ETA: maybe 52nd after Greenland... can't have an odd number of states)

Where do y'all stand on the fact that AEW Dynamite has now edged WCW Nitro on number of episodes aired on the Turner networks?

In typical AEW fashion, the announcers continuously heralded what a momentous broadcast last night's show was, but tended to leave viewers in a fog as to what they were actually celebrating.

In my view, while Dynamite has eclipsed Nitro with a longer run, it has nowhere near approached the cultural impact and importance to the business as Nitro did, back in the day.

Guys like Ric Flair, Sting, and the nWo were red hot, household names when Nitro aired. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone today who knows who Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks are.

Haven't kept up too closely with AEW lately. Need rt3 to give me a segment-by-segment breakdown of the past few months.

It's been bad for a lot longer than that.

If you think that's bad, I challenge you to watch Collision. What a damn trainwreck. HHH has got to laugh when he sees Plumper Ambrose and thankful White Nose Tony blew all that money on him and the fricks.
