Scoff all you want but TNA 2005-2010 (just before hogan and bischoff ruined it) Was awesome TV. And yeah TNA was bigger in the UK than it was back home, with their TV show being digital's highest rated show consistently. At times beating even shows on the main 5 channels. I loved TNA, and had stopped watching WWE after 2003. So a while later TNA filled that void nicely. It was only the Summer of Punk that bought me back to WWE with 2011 being arguably WWE's only good year post attitude era. Now all I watch is NXT, so I can't wait for AEW.

I used to watch it on Virgin One (remember that short lived Virgin version of Sky 1?) and then on Challenge TV. I Stopped when it changed to GFW and started airing on 5*. TNA pre Bischoff and Hogan was great. It was also great around 2013 when it had EC3, Rockstar Spud and Austin Aries. It never really recovered from the Hogan stench though and was never the same after AJ Styles went to New Japan.

No question. I love wrestling in general. I love the story, the gimmicks, the showmanship, the grapps, and sometimes the music because wrestling is a show. Impact has its moments and as a show, it keeps a good rhythm of leaving a nice layer of fresh talent to develop. Although, I do feel they need a legend to stir things up. I would say someone like Mark Henry to build a faction. Right now, I see Impact as the better development for talent than NXT. Nxt is great but one that is completely thrown away because of that ass Vincent.

How long have you been watching though? IMO its a pale shadow of what it used to be. I started watching around 2007 but gave up on it a couple of years ago. Partly because it got shunted to ever later TV slots, but also because it stopped feeling like a legit wrestling show once all the established / recognisable talent had gone. The quality of the wrestling was rarely an issue, but its not entertaining if you've never heard of the people in the ring and they're playing to near-empty venues. Talent used to stick around for a good few years, but towards the end it felt like they had a different roster every year. Storylines (or lack thereof) was also a constant issue, but when they were hiring big names from WWE and had really good talent of their own, it partly made up for that shortfall. When you've got the likes of Hogan, Sting, Angle, Team 3D, The Hardys, AJ Styles, Austin Aries & Beer Money (and to give him his due, Eric Bischoff), those characters make you want to watch regardless.

TNA from 2002-2007 was great. Exposed a lot of today's big stars to the world. Had some fantastic brawls. Had some truly unique match concepts. Had some of the most creative and acrobatic wrestling seen in the US at that point. Had arguably the best women's division of the time. And then they stopped being an NWA showcase and became their own thing. And like with WCW, that became the (near) kiss of death. Especially when they hired basically everyone that helped kill WCW (Hogan, Nash, Russo, Bischoff) and shoved them in our faces. They tried to make AJ heel in a time before AJ really understood how to work heel. The real-life drama between Kurt Angle and Jeff Jarrett over Valerie became the main focus storyline. Jarrett himself became less hand's on in running the product and let Dixie and Russo do the heavy lifting. He then left entirely. Then the TV deals fell through. It was 5 years of awesomeness followed by 10 years of perpetual pain. Luckily, since hiring Don Callas, he really seems to have righted the ship. They have a stable platform now in Twitich. They have a stacked talent roster with the likes of Sami Callihan, Tessa Blanchard, TJP, Rich Swann, Moose, Mike Elgin, and Brian Cage. And they really seem to have focused in on the one thing they can offer that WWE has stopped caring about: CONSISTENT, LONG-TERM STORYTELLING! The feuds between Rosemary and Su Yung, Rich and Sami, Sami and Tessa, Moose and EVERYONE, Cage and John Morrison before his recent departure...all of them have been fantastic. Some are more athletic. Some are more brutal and physical. Some are just absolutely bug-fuck insane. But Impact seems to be doing well again.

I was at that 2009 UK house show! Was a great show. AJ Styles teaming with Samoa Joe was a highlight!

To be fair for as attendance. That's more WWE fault and doing shady business and having the money. They'll buy up the venues months out or even a year out before TNA could even think about buying/renting it. So they was always stuck in smaller arenas.
