Black Machismo is the best thing to happen to TNA in the past year besides the unlawfully short TNA/NJPW special.

Geese! Prepare the funnycopter! A spin-off show? For the Knockouts? The semi-equivalent of the WWE Divas? Uh...unless they are gonna just go right out and give us a soft core porn show (really, the best bet given the TNA website's treatment of them)...are they gonna attempt a female wrestling fed? TNA-Joshi? ... Strangely, I don't feel threatened ;D (Nor does the Reyes family )

Dude. SHIMMER aside, the TNA Knockouts division might just be the best women's wrestling in America. Go watch the Gail Kim/Amazing Kong match from a couple weeks ago on iMPACT!. It was pretty damn cool, and Gail Kim got fucking MURDERED. The Knockouts Division had a really solid roster to begin with, and they've added some really skilled grapplers to the ranks like Rain and Cheerleader Melissa.
Amazing Kong, Traci Brooks, Gail Kim, Nikki Roxx (Roxxi Laveaux), Angel Williams (Angelina Love) and Talia Madison (Velvet Sky), Jackie Moore, ODB, Rain (Peyton Banks), Christy Hemme, Shelly Martinez (Salinas), and Raisha Saed (Cheerleader Melissa) - that's a damn solid division. If they get their own show, I can see half an hour of wrestling - but I wouldn't be expecting any wrestling PPVs. haha

I like ODB, she's like a hybrid of Stone Cold, Ultimate Warrior, and Ellen Degeneres. Strangely, I hope this happens, as long as Paul Heyman is running it, and Professor Cocknuckle (Vince Russo, or whatever the hell his name is...) has NOTHING to do with it. If they run it kind of like a Ring of Honour type deal, and let the girls just bang (not THAT way... Well, maybe. ;D), I think it would be a great alternative to the shit that's on TV right now. It would be like REAL RUMBLE ROSES!

What is this? TOTAL NONSTOP ACTION WRESTLING OFFERS COACHING JOB TO BOB KNIGHT
Total Nonstop Action (TNA) Wrestling is offering its first-ever Head Coaching job to Bob Knight, the all-time winningest Division I men’s basketball coach known as much for his coaching genius as his fiery temper, who resigned Monday in the middle of the season as the Texas Tech coach.
“TNA Wrestling was shocked, like the rest of the sports world, to hear Coach Knight resigned,” said Jeff Jarrett, co-founder of TNA Wrestling, who was a high school and junior college basketball player in Tennessee before becoming a professional wrestler. “Coach Knight is a sports icon and we’d be thrilled and honored to have him join the ranks, to further build TNA Wrestling into a national power, much like he did for Texas Tech.”
Knight, 67, has been a head coach for 42 years at three Division I schools: Army, Indiana and Texas Tech. Knight won three national championships, including his 1976 Indiana team that went undefeated, a feat no team has done since. In 1984, he coached the U.S. Olympic team to a gold medal in Los Angeles.
TNA Wrestling has a lighter schedule than college basketball which should appeal to Coach Knight, Jarrett said, and TNA not only endorses chair-throwing, but has an endless supply of steel chairs.
In addition to Jarrett, the TNA Wrestling roster also features Kevin Nash who, during his high school basketball career in Michigan had an in-home recruiting visit from Knight. Nash, though, ultimately played at the University of Tennessee, then professionally in Germany.
TNA Wrestling delivers a distinct brand of high-risk, athletic entertainment. TNA’s roster includes the biggest names in wrestling today, such as Kurt Angle, Booker T, and Christian Cage, as well as the hottest new stars in the business: A.J. Styles, Samoa Joe and the Motor City Machineguns. TNA features the innovative six-sided ring and the high flying X-Division, as well as concept matches such as “Ultimate X,” “King of the Mountain,” “Six Sides of Steel,” “Lethal Lockdown” and “Elevation X,” considered the most dangerous match in professional wrestling.
TNA Entertainment, LLC is a privately held company headquartered in Nashville, TN. For more information, visit www.tnawrestling.com. TNA programming is available in over 100 countries. “TNA iMPACT” airs every Thursday night on Spike TV (9:00 – 11:00 PM, ET/PT). Spike TV is available in 96.1 million homes and is a division of MTV Networks.please note the new avatar. aGAIN.

Out of all of TNA's hare-brained schemes to get national attention, this is probably the most RELEVANT "celebrity" they could get. Having Bobby Knight as a manager to choke his wrestlers and throw chairs at them would actually make SENSE in a stricter pro wrestling perspective.
More then "Pacman" at least. (and i'm not referring to the dot chomper. HE'd be great in TNA!)

So yeah, TNA made me one happy Canuckistani tonight. Shark Boy and Curry Man tag match, and AJ Styles versus TIGER F'N MASK IV! I love the fact that I saw Curry Man and Tiger Mask IV on an American television station, and that pro wrestling fans were exposed to them, whether or not they enjoyed their matches. I hope this NJPW exchange thing continues, but more importantly, is used properly.
PS: I'd wash Awesome Kong's stankin' ASS with a Q-Tip for Tiger Masks IV's JACKET! ;D

Okay, so either this is the result of eating a CroCop LHK a few years back, or he had to call and deal with the "decision makers" at TNA to get paid for his match with Angle... Uh oh, All bullshit aside, hopefully Nagata is okay.
