WWE NXT, Pyro Accident, Anti-PG, Sting/TNA
Written by Richard Gray on Mar 18, 2010 - 11:04:54 AM
Why is NXT not live if they tape it the day it is aired on TV?
WWE NXT has aired live the past two weeks because they have been on the West Coast. WWE usually airs the show an hour after it is taped so they are able to do last minute editing.
Why didn't Michael Cole acknowledge the Undertaker/pyro accident at Elimination Chamber? He tried covering it up by saying that the Undertaker threw off his jacket and ran to the ring, eager to start the match. I understand the whole kayfabe concept, but this is taking it too far. We SAW the Undertaker on fire, and besides, he NEVER runs to the ring.
Michael Cole didn't know at the time what exactly happened. WWE usually does not acknowledge things that are not supposed to happen but The Undertaker pyro accident was very unusual. I actually thought Cole was very professional in handling it as there is no need to rush to judgment. The Undertaker immediately broke character at ringside but you can't blame him - he was on fire!
Do you think that the reason TNA is pushing so much blood with because WWE banned it?
TNA Wrestling is doing the anti-PG segments to try and show fans that are fed up with WWE PG they are an alternative. The problem is they are trying too hard as it is coming off as blatant and forced. It's almost like watching in fast forward. The past two weeks of Impact haven't been bad, but they need to slow things down and stop overdoing it. As I noted yesterday, TNA must create programming that is entertaining. With an inferior product it doesn't matter who they bring in to try to cover it up, it's still an inferior product.
We know one of Sting's reasons for not joining WWE during the Attitude Era was the raunchy story lines, what is his current opinion of the new TNA direction?
With Sting being a born again Christian I would imagine he is not happy with the stuff TNA is doing. However, he is getting paid a lot of money to work very little which is probably why he is still doing it. Sting's ultimate hang up with WWE comes down to dates. He doesn't have to work house shows and can work a select number of TVs and PPVs and collect a hefty salary.
