THE WRESTLING THREAD: HHH KEEPS DOING HHH THINGS.....
- Thread starter ArsenalCannon357
- Start date
If Vince is doing that about Jeff Hardy than he's fooling himself.Hardy left on his own Vince didn't future endeavor him.And as a matter of fact he wanted to bring him back last year and fight Punk at Wrestlemania but Hardy decided to go to TNA instead.
Yep.
From what I'm reading, the undercard was good with the Bully Ray-Dreamer match, the Ultimate X match, AJ-Matt Hardy match and the tag title match being the highlights but, in a lesson that TNA and WWE need to remember, a shitty main event kills the entire ppv. If Jeff was fucked up, it's time to show him the door. They've stuck with him through his court dates and even put him at the top but if he's not respecting the company, the fans, or the person/people, fuck him. Best believe Vince won't take him back right now. Dude's been doing fine on the road but acts up on the weekend of ppvs? Strange cat that J. Hardy.
I thought they future endeavored everybody but anyways I will be interested to hear TNA defend the pay per view.

Here's the youtube link while it's still up.
Hardy looked bad coming to the ring. I've never seen someone come to the ring looking like they were fucked up, not like that. And even through the makeup, you could see Sting's expression of disgust and when the fans started with the bullshit chants, he was saying "I agree" as he walked up the ramp.
Fire Hardy or at least suspend him and get on with Sting/Anderson right away. Don't even bring this shit up at the tv tapings this week. In hindsight, it may be a good thing they didn't hype this ppv.
It's TNA's fault for hiring him but the bulk of the blame is on Jeff Hardy. He's a grown man with a family and should know better.

MORE ON WHAT HAPPENED WITH JEFF HARDY AT VICTORY ROAD AND THE REACTION FROM PEOPLE BACKSTAGE IN TNA TO IT
by Dave Scherer @ 9:56 AM on 3/14/2011
To follow up what Mike Johnson posted in the Elite section last night, numerous TNA sources have told me that Jeff Hardy was in no condition to wrestle in his match against Sting on last night's show, and that is why the main event went less than 90 seconds.
Sting, as usual, was a complete professional and had nothing to do with why the match was so short.
In talking to people within TNA, they are angry and upset that Hardy was even sent out to the ring at all when it was clear to anyone who saw him that he should not have been. Given that the card was only announced a few days before the show, everyone I spoke with about this felt that the prudent move would have been to reshuffle the card and not embarrass the company but putting on the main event that they did. The feeling is that it makes the company look bad and it's situation that is representative of greater problems that plague the company.
To say that people in TNA are very frustrated right now would be more than fair.
I'm not saying TNA is dying or anything dramatic but they're going down the same path as WCW in it's last days, namely making news for the wrong reasons and that news overshadowing the good work done in the ring.

wow... I just saw the "match" and I see why everyone who paid to see the ppv are pissed. Hardy looked out of it the whole time. They should of had Mr.Anderson come out and laid them both out with a couple of chair shots. At least it would of got a more positive response from the fans in attendance. One thing that questions me though is why is TNA still using that ugly ass custom Jeff Hardy belt ??
Maybe it's selling as a merch item, idk. I do think when someone takes the belt off Hardy, they should go back to using the classic belt. I think it would have been better to do that when Anderson was champ and then they could have hung both belts over the ring for their ladder match.
MORE ON JEFF HARDY'S TNA FUTURE, WHERE MATT HARDY STANDS, FORMER WWE STAR RIPS ON JEFF (BUT NOT FOR THE REASON YOU THINK)
by Mike Johnson @ 1:07 PM on 3/14/2011
Obviously, the big story coming out of the TNA PPV was Jeff Hardy and his condition last night. Unlike the last time there was a question about Hardy's condition, no one within the company has even attempted to defend Hardy. A number of people within different aspects of the company were really frustrated and angry about the situation, from the decision to allow Jeff to go out in front of the crowd when there were obvious issues, right down to his stumbling on the ramp and nearly tripping over the ring steps. Others were shaking their head in amazement that the company didn't just book something else on the fly to "make it up" to the audience.
I am told that while Hardy's been sent home from this week's TV shows, which will build to the Lockdown PPV, no further decision has been made in regard to his future. I believe Hardy would have been booked for the Lethal Lockdown match on that show.
Hardy tweeted last night that "things are op." Whatever that means, although I'm guessing it's a typo and I'm as guilty as anyone when it comes to typos!
Jeff's next court date with in Moore County in North Carolina is scheduled to be 3/16.
Matt Hardy is still scheduled for the Impact tapings this week. Hardy hasn't made any comment on the situation with his brother (and who can blame him?), instead bragging about his match against AJ Styles stealing the show last night. It was a good match, as I wrote last nigh
Looks like Jefro got at least a month off. We'll see.

Most of the time when a main guy leaves it's on his own with Kurt Angle being the exception.And Christian is the one mid card wrestler that I remember choosing to leave on his own but Hardy,Jericho,and Batista all chose to leave the WWE they weren't fired.

Great point especially since they had a backup plan the last time that Hardy pulled that stunt. Have him laid out back stage just before he was to come out,have Anderson attack Sting,RVD attack Anderson,Immortal attack everybody and then Fortune come out.One huge 15-20 minute brawl that will leave the PPV on a decent note and leave things up in the air for Impact. Or impromptu rematch for the Knockout tag belts,Angelina Love and Winter vs. Sarita and Rosita in a bra and panties match.
That was some bullshit...Sting was PISSED. They could have changed shit around and put RVD & Anderson in there and have them beat the snot outta each other and have Sting capitalize...and they could justify it by saying that RVD and Anderson weren't "fresh". TNA stays losing. Charlie Sheen wouldn't work with those fuckers.
Honkytonk Man?
They could've easily changed it up. After the Bischoff bit, they should've had Sting beat Hardy with a weapon for doing the bullshit with the shirt, hit him with the finisher, win the match then have Bischoff send down somebody else to wrestle Sting.
Yep. There are a number of ways they could have switch that up. It's been done before, hell, TNA has done it before. Internally, people are upset about the way that went down.
But for TNA, better it happen on ppv in front of maybe, maybe 25k fans and not on some special live Impact in front of the million+ that watch.
That in itself is so fucking sad
someone insert a gif from First Blood of Colonel Trautman yelling, "It's Over !!!!"
In TNA's defense, they don't make their money on ppvs but on tv deals, domestically and internationally, and they have one of the highest rated shows on Spike.
They're doing great internationally, ratings and attendance-wise.
Good point. That could even explain why this whole thing was allowed to happen in the first place. They really don't put much stock in their PPV's
the rock supposedly talking to the president and the little boy pretending to be cena
is it safe to say Rock owned Cena again, and Miz is carrying Cena!! shameful!!!
Snooki as guest host
The Rock came out first?
That Sheamus slow mo kick was nice.
I'm loving the Rock but I wouldn't bury my top star for a non-wrestler for nothing. They have to find a way to get some heat on Rock from Cena or he's done.
They would have never done this to HHH.
That's how you make your heel champ look strong. He beat the shit out of Khali (he used to be intimidating as a heel, he's joke as a dancing fool).

Damn the crowd act like they don't remember Grand Master Sexay and Too Cool The crowd was dead!!!
The crowd was dead!!!
I can't believe that they just brought out Brian Christopher.For his sake I hope JBL doesn't show up.
He better hope no one shows up wanting a urine sample.
Good Ol JR
If it's a choice between a man and an urine sample or JBL and a mop he'll take the urine sample.
Cole getting great heat tonight.
I knew that Swagger was gonna jump in couldn't let Cole look bad prior to Wrestlemania. And to think that J.R. got Swagger his job in the first place
