I’m now very very hungry for some “the GazettE” material. Ruki is way too damn cool.

*NOTE: The job contract censorship still applies*

After loads of work, sweat and tears (but mostly work) I’m now to ****.

My only source of strengt* in my w*rk is that at least I KNOW what am i d*ing. Unlike most of my cla**mates who took Oracle-related jobs but doesn’t know anything about it, they’re potentailly headed to the so-called “Work S**tpile”, which consists of laid-off workers.

I know VB.NET now. I know what I am doing. I’m not second-guessing at wor*.

And I’m comfortable being contrac***l.

Truth be told, TNA, or “Totally Nonstop Asskissing” is going way overboard.

Their storylines suck. Their promotional pitches do never click. Their wrestlers are underpaid and underused. And worst of all, they occupy 2 hours of SpikeTV, which is the proverbial last straw.

I love SpikeTV. But when it comes to them airing TNA, I do promptly switch off the TV or flip to another channel.

Some people (allegedly hooked by an alternative to WWE like TNA) asked me why I say this. Why do I dislike TNA? Let me count the ways.

1. They keep hiring ex-WWE employees, keep re-using WWE storylines (or plagiarizing off it), using old WWE gimmicks, and using WWE as like a comparison to them.

First off, TNA never had branding. Paul Heyman is right on the money. See Kurt Angle? 90% of wrestling fans know him better as the heel, the Olympic Medal shove-it-up-your-ass WWE’s Kurt Angle than the wife-asskissing TNA’s Kurt Angle. See Booker T? Try King-Booo-kahhh chants. He’s the five-time, five-time, five-time, five-time, five-time, WCW Champion and once a King of the Ring winner, not the flaccid weiner he is now in TNA. Sting is more famed in WCW. The Dudley Boys? Most TNA fans actually refer to them as the Dudleys still, the ECW table-hugging fatasses.

If you list the tenured ex-WWE people in TNA… lemme list.
Kurt Angle
Christian Cage (ex-Christian)
Scott Steiner
Black Reign (ex-Goldust)
Booker T (ex-King Booker)
Brother Ray & Devon (ex-Bubba Ray Dudley and ex-D-Von Dudley)
Matt Morgan
B.G. James (ex-Road Dogg)
Kip James (ex-Billy Gunn -the gay one with Chuck Palumbo-)
Kevin Nash (the original Big Sexy)
Jeff Jarrett (the one with the IC championship Vince once forgot to strip of)
Rellik (was Johnny Stamboli in WWE from 2001-2004)
Rhino (ex-Rhyno)
Christy Hemme
Jacqueline (from 1998-2004, once WWE Cruiserweight Champion)
Gail Kim (ex-WWE Women’s Champion)
Salinas (the ex-valet of Kevin Thorn, “Ariel”)
Tomko (ex-Tyson Tomko, the Christian resident bedfellow)

And the ones with minimal WWE exposure…
Johnny Devine (had a one-day jobber job as JP Parsons at August 18 2005 Smackdown)
Hernandez (was a jobber in WWF in 2000-2001 Jakked)
Kaz (once was on WWE Smackdown as a cruiserweight in 2005)
Robert Roode (dark matches in WWE from 2001-2004)
Samoa Joe (was on WWE Jakked once against Essa Rios)
AJ Styles (also a WWE Jakked talent, more known for his matches with Helms)
Eric Young (a jobber in WWE Velocity and Heat)
Elix Skipper (WWE in 2001 in The Alliance)
Raisha Saeed (a WWE Heat jobber)
Rhaka Khan (a WWE jobber in 2006)
Angelina Love (an OVW/DSW talent)
ODB (a WWE Tough Enough contestant)
Velvet Sky (2005-2007 in WWE, minimal extra)
Jim Cornette (old-time loudmouth in WWF-WWE)
Hector Guerrero (more famed as Eddie’s bro and as a chickensuit man)
Sharmell (the heelish wife of King Booker)
SoCal Val (once appeared on WWE vignettes featuring Luther Reigns and a Cena shirt model)

Heck, even Earl Hebner. Remember the Montreal Screwjob?

Wow. That’s way a lot of wrestlers. See?

2. They have NO original talent now in the roster. WWE develops most of its own talents, and they have their own developmental farms. Which is really good.

TNA has none. Basically, it’s a dumphouse of rejects, has-beens and jobbers.

3. Where are their original talents now? Monty Brown’s gone. Chris Harris is now in WWE. AJ Styles is an undercard wrestler. Samoa Joe just got a taste of gold, but he’s promoted on a very dismal proportion than how WWE promotes their champions.

4. TNA is content with dismal storylines, cheap promotional gimmicks (see Wrestlemania 24? TNA was there like a bunch of penises trying to leech off WWE’s heavy promotion of their PPV) and MMA-imitation styles.

5. TNA wrestlers criticize WWE mostly for its heavy road schedule. But it pays very good dividends. Randy Orton is now MORE famous than Kurt Angle. See? WWE is a promotional and wrestling company. TNA… dunno, maybe it needs a makeover.

6. Booking really sucks. Where is Kurt Angle vs. AJ Styles? Most people will pay good money to see Booker T in a Ladder Match against Sting. The problem is, TNA doesn’t satisfy its viewers. TNA only satisfy themselves. Fans… well, are they more happy with an Eric Young autograph or a signed shirt by Mr. Kennedy?

7. TNA is disrespectful. Derek Graham-Couch once showed up in TNA as a paying customer (and he’s a WWE employee too) and TNA had the balls to show him on-screen as a “WWE Superstar”. How cheap. TNA is more content with promotion than others’ welfare.

8. TNA is a leech. See Shark Boy lately? See Roode’s robe?

And that’s it. No talent, no balls, no good gimmicks, no originality. Why the hell would anybody watch this crap?

Now let me watch UFC.
