Now granted he had 5 or 6 years working his way up with feuds with guys like Razor, Jeff Jarrett, Rick Martel etc but the old time philosiphy is that if a guy cant talk, get him a manager.
But there are no managers in WWE now. They were gotten rid of by Russo and replaced with bleach blonde bimbos with big knockers. Yes, they look nicer than Jim Cornette, however they sort of fail at getting any heat for their charges.
When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Apart from Vickie Guerrero, who has more heat than anybody in WWE.

Dixie Carter has announced that all TNA programming will start on Challenge TV from February. That makes iMPACT!, PPV's and Xplosion all available on Sky, Virgin and now Freeview. Being on Freeview will greatly help the ratings in the UK.
“TNA iMPACT!” will air on Tuesday night at 10pm, with PPV events showing on the Wednesday after US broadcast. Challenge TV will also show catch-up episodes of “TNA iMPACT!” for those who missed them during TNA’s brief period off air.

love me it took then two weeks before having D-von whipped in the ring.

- Dixie Carter is on Jeff Randall Live on Sky News between 7pm - 8pm tonight.
- There were reportedly some issues with Ric Flair with him wanting an advance, and talk of him leaving the tour. That issue is apparently sorted now and Flair is still on the tour.

Just watching Dixie Carter on Jeff Randall now......well, not ACTUALLY on Jeff Randall, that would be quite bizarre.
Anyway, not really followed much TNA when it was on Bravo, but might start watching it more now.
