TNA are off once again looking for more talentless B-list celebrities to take up camera time on their product. Their latest interest is in Spencer Pratt from the horrendously scripted reality show The Hills.

Although cavorting with these so called stars may make certain wrestlers and writers feel better about themselves, historically they have added nothing to the ratings or PPV buyrates, and just help take camera time away from hard working wrestlers!

The Pratt is being tipped for the June PPV.


Not for nothing but Johnny Fairplay, Pacman Jones, Hermie Saddler, that baseball player, Bonaduce. What the hell's the point!

Something I wrote in 2007 is just as relevant today:

OMG that show is awful. Funny how you ripped it in that "everything else is fake" column and now TNA signs the guy.

It will get some play on the Perez Hilton clone sites, the readers will rip wrestling, and that will be it.

*sigh* TNA will never learn.

I just bought the "TNA 50 Greatest Moments" DVD and was appalled by the amount of "celebrity" crap on there.

Whether it was reality TV people, athletes I've never heard of, or propaganda spewing "country" singers, it was all the same lame bunch of B.S.

Jeff Jarrett is supposed to be the franchise, flagship guy...right? Is having him suplexed by some douchebag in a cowboy hat the best thing for business? I realize this happened, like, a million years ago in wrestling storyline time but damn.

Yeah, it's The Brain.

I was looking for Dick The Bruiser info and found a site dedicated to his old promotion. They had a shit ton of old promo pictures and magazine covers.

If you look very, very closely at my av, you'll see some microscopic lettering under the picture. It says: "Pretty Boy" Bobby Heenan. laugh.gif That obviously rules, so I chose it as my new av. I was sick of looking at the old Chinese guy.
