       Last Night to end Tna Impact, Tito Ortiz came out and revealed
       himself as the man TNA has being hyping as as August1Warning
       during the fight between the Main Event Mafia and Aces and
       Eights.....
       Suffice to say,.... NOBODY saw this coming..... Is that a good
       thing? Did you like the fact that tito is back on TNA? What
       potential does this have? Will he wrestle?
       As for me? HUGE dissapointment, because this does nothing for
       TNA in the long run.... Tito Ortiz and Rampage Jackson will
       fight in November on PPV and now it seems TNA will be used by
       Spike to promote the fight too... These 2 will NOT fight at
       Bound for Glory cause none of them are trained wrestlers, and
       more importantly why would they fake wrestle when they will
       fight for real a month later...
       Also, whos paying this man's salary is what I'm wondering..... I
       REALLY hope that Spike and/or BELLATOR are paying his full
       salary.... Because if this was the reason so much of TNA's
       talent was released recently, i see it as a massive waste and a
       spit on the face to wrestling in general.... You fire people
       that bleed wrestling and fight for your company for a guy that
       wont wrestle, and wont move the needle ratings or money or match
       wise?
       I will give the angle a chance i guess but they hyped his return
       waaaay too much....
       What do you think TNA fans..... Did TNA got it right by bringing
       Tito Ortiz back?

       as i said in another thread
       "i think its the biggest pile of crap. TNA slash the roster of
       fully trained wrestlers to bring in MMA/UFC guys who dont know
       how to wrestle or how to work matches etc. The company is
       heading for a huge iceberg if it doesnt wake up and smell the
       s**t that its shovelling. Fans will become bored and start to
       drift off, for crying out loud TNA get back to what you used to
       do best and thats putting on quality wrestling matches with some
       of the best wrestling talent going. We dont want MMA/UFC guys in
       TNA we are a WRESTLING company so hire WRESTLERS that will get
       the company to where it needs to be as at the moment the ship is
       sinking quickly and fans are starting to jump ship."

       TNA needs to quit pushing MMA because it's not what most TNA
       wrestling fans want to see. MMA has their own show and they do
       not need to take over TNA.  Just wondering did TNA sell their
       product to Bellator (MMA) and this is why we're getting the MMA
       garbage now instead of real pro wrestling? I've said this
       before, it seems like that TNA doesn't care what the fans think
       about the direction that they're going. TNA keep it up with
       bringing MMA people in and you will lose most of your viewership
       who watches the program for what it's supposed to
       be,"WRESTLING".

       No! I was expecting a pro wrestler. I really thought the mystery
       man was Bad Bones John Klinger.

       everyone was expecting a wrestler look at all the big household
       names what are free to sign , you have masters for a start who
       could be a big Time player in TNA.

       Who or What is a Tito Ortiz?? Never heard of the bloke.
       Sick of TNA signing MMA guys over wrestlers.  Whats King Mo done
       since joining TNA? F**k all thats what. Whats Rampage done??
       Joined MEM and still hasnt made much of an Impact
       Seriously, Greg "Trent Baretta" Marasciulo has made a bigger
       Impact in two weeks than the other two have combined.

       Spike Tv has to be pushing the buttons here and getting these
       MMA guys into TNA.
       I can feel the energy of the fans been sucked out of the
       company, ive seen the video of Ortiz entrance and the reaction
       he gets well lets say you can hear a pin drop, this may be the
       moment fans revolt against TNA and stop watching the show. Ive
       seen tweets to this effect where fans have removed them from
       their DVR and have told dixie they will no longer be watching
       the programme, TNA need to wake up sharpish.

       Correct me if I'm wrong but Master's was let go by TNA last
       year. I didn't understand that move either. He was on the roster
       for RA King Ka and did a few dark matches here in the states.
       I'm not totally against MMA's being in TNA to promote things but
       not on the roster unless they can contribute. I just can't see
       how this is helping TNA in the long run.
