was motherfukking ref cam.

This gotta be the most TNAest shyt of all-time.

:10,



1:00, 1:39, 2:20



they got this dude looking like an a$$hole running around the ring with a camera hat to give you a special view that isn't half as good as the regular view.

shyt lasted for like a couple weeks, then they ditched it and the idea of every X-Division match being a triple threat.

On another note, the other x-div belt was better.

Worst thing is butcher their Knockout division , it was the best part of impact and the released dymes to hire bums like Mike Knox who nobody will ever give a fukk about
He could hold an autograph signing at a flea market and he wouldn't even draw flies

Yeah, that was sad, really.
They thought they were so cutting edge with that shyt too. Revolutionizing the business.

Right. They didn't even come through with some super HD cam (which still would have been pretty pointless).

KOs have always been one of their most consistent draws. I don't get it either.

Getting rid of the six-sided ring was a huge mistake too, in my opinion.

I liked the idea of ref cam, but the reality was that it sucked.

One thing about the ring - for years before they did it, writers and fans would always say they needed a traditional ring to be taken seriously.

They definitely need to bring it back. It enhanced the overall quality of the X matches and just made the product look unique. Now they're confined to that small ring with very little space around it. Everytime a guy does something high risk, I think he's going to get injured.

kinda been hoping that this AJ Styles storyline is part of a bigger one where TNA goes back to some of its old stuff.

The ring made them unique, different and gave them an identity. My friends would be saying "You seen that new wrestling show with the six-sided ring and that AJ Styles dude?". I think it did wonders for TNA and made them look like a legit competitor, instead of a cheaper version of WWE (which they look like with this horrible new set up). The ring provided us with things we've never seen before such as Ultimate X matches and gave us a new-look steel cage match. Everything just seemed fresh and next-gen with the six-sided ring.

I can't stand the new set up they have. The ramp connected to the ring look is horrible, just horrible. I wish they'd stuck with the impact zone, it was a perfect setting for the weekly shows - all they needed to do was just move out of the there for the PPVs.
