AJ was so boring after a while, like the angle was... not the
wrestler.

AJ isn't coming back, he is way better off (financially and
artistically) where he is.
I have to agree with @Onenightphoney in that Dixie going through
a table was wrong; putting a 50 year old woman through a table
is not a face move. Ever. It jeopardized the progress they have
made in the last 6 months getting the product back on track,
sorry Phoney but it has been a lot better lately, because you
can't have faces attacking civilians and expect people think its
normal and a good thing to do. It just made no business sense.

All I was saying was it would had been fitting if he would have
been there so the "story" could have come to a real end where he
would have been satisfied with what happened to Dixie. Let's
just say pop out right after Dixie was put through the table to
cheer what happened. To me that would have been a good touch to
the storyline.

I can understand that Robert, but sadly won't happen anytime
soon.

And Ros; Bobby Roode, Austin Aries, Gail Kim, EY, Madison Rayne,
basically all the people who were front and centre at Dixie's
Execution who should have had nothing to do with it.

There are some things I have to disagree with here:
1) The idea of Dixie blaming herself and turning heel because of
it. I think that's looking too deep into it. Dixie saw she had
heat with a segment of her fans and exploited it to great
success. EC3 and Rockstar Spud greatly benefited from it, Bully
Ray's face turn had reason, ratings have been on the climb to
normalcy, a guy like MVP was introduced to the roster because of
Dixie turning heel, which has obviously led to the current reign
of Bobby Lashley, and we've seen someone like Magnus get an
opportunity to shine in the main event, now he's paired up with
Bram who looks to have a good future ahead of him if things go
right. Dixie's heel turn has been a big positive for TNA in the
long run, despite the criticisms, and the ratings show what a
good, long, and well planned storyline can do.
2) At the end of the day, Dixie taking that bump was her choice.
Some will have a problem with it, yes, but it's ultimately pro
wrestling. Crazier things have happened, there was a time when
that was done a weekly basis in the WWE, to huge pops, despite
being a heel. You don't have to agree with it, but you can't
deny it's success.
3) I'm not entirely sure what a last minute script is supposed
to feel like, but I do know that the talent is given more
freedom in the ring and mic. Not sure if that has anything to do
with your complaint, but if it was, I'd prefer the show to stay
that way personally, as I find it makes for more organic promos.
Then again, I feel like that's always been the style of Impact
as a TV show. Then again, this kind of show is kind of the
anti-thesis to that remark. I actually feel like the creative do
plan ahead, but it's been a bad year for them due to touring
costs and contracts running out. They had to make due while
trying to run an entire company.
4) As for the roster, I technically agree that it doesn't make
sense, but then again, they were solely there for the pop. As
for them looking petty, again, I feel like it's a case of
looking too deep into it. You could almost argue the same thing
for when Stone Cold stomped a mud hole in Vince or gave the
entire McMahon family a Stunner. It's done for the sake of the
storyline, but also for the pop. That's pro wrestling. Dixie saw
an opportunity, looked to someone who did his best to protect
her, after all, he's powerbombed much older women, and she ended
up getting hurt still. Some could argue that it happened because
of the Six Sided ring being larger and stiffer, but those are
the risks everyone has to be willing to take when they do
something physical.
Personally, I don't see it as a negative, simply because it did
so much for so many guys on the roster, and some guys who
weren't part of the roster. It was a hell of an opportunity, I
wasn't on board at first, but then she started using guys like
Magnus and Spud regularly, the actual feud with Bully and Dixie
was good and well planned, and it led to some great moments. My
only real negative is that they got rid of the traditional
wrestling ring. It's not something talent is trained in, is
considered slightly more dangerous to wrestle in, and has
potential to turn away viewers from the product if they think
it's stupid. As for creative at the moment, I've been enjoying
them personally for the past two and a half years myself.
Particularly Dave Lagana who had a hand in writing the shows
around Lockdown of 2013, which I thought was the highlight of
that year personally. I think if something like this were to
happen, then a long storyline was the way to do it.

I have a question about the table thing... Bully was after
Dixie's stable and MVP's stable. Now that he's put Dixie's
stable through the table nothing is being said about MVP's
stable being put through the tables. Or am I the only one
noticing this? The only person on Dixie's team that hasn't been
put through the table is Rhino but I see that there is a series
of matches coming up between EC3 and Rhino so is there a face
turn for Rhino coming up?

Well remembered that man. :). Its one of those "oh the fans will
never remember moments I think that and MVP's crew are matched
up nicely with Aries, Roode and EY.
