| #1 Posted on 27.1.06 1822.23 Reposted on: 27.1.13 1822.46 | To make this short and sweet, I just read that Matt Morgan is set to debut in the near future with TNA. While I posted earlier that I acutally like Matt Morgan, he will expose a lot of wrestlers on that roster for their small size. Can you imagine Matt Morgan in the ring with Petey Williams? It would be like wrestling a midget. Promote this thread! | | geemoney

Exposed as small? You think they're hiding it? Abyss and Morgan are what I would call freakishly huge. When Lance Hoyt was wrestling there, no one said that everyone else was a hapless small guy in his presence.
Morgan showed me some potential even in his second WWE run with the stutter. This was a guy F5ing Big Show week after week. I loved his suplex STO. From a booking angle, it's about time someone brought in a guy to fend off TNA's giant thug. | tnaisanalternative

No! They are doomed! Nobody ever lies about their height in wrestling! TNA is finished!
Really this was stupid enough when you mentioned in your "problems with TNA" thread, it REALLY doesn't warrant it's own topic. All the people you've mentioned can work with larger men. As for the X Division guys? As Tracker said, he could F5 the Big Show, I'd love to see him get in a match with an X guy and be able to thrown them around easily. I'm sure AJ can have a good match with him, Daniels too. Shannon Moore even had an enjoyable squash match against Morgan. And if it's true that he can talk better than we've seen then it's a great addition. | ges7184

| #9 Posted on 28.1.06 1753.10 Reposted on: 28.1.13 1753.23 | Just list him as a 7-footer and call it a day. I doubt anyone is going to run into the ring and start checking heights with a tape measure. And if people can find Rey Mysterio as a credible threat in WWE, I don't see why they wouldn't find the TNA roster a credible threat against Morgan. | tnaisanalternative

| #10 Posted on 28.1.06 2000.24 Reposted on: 28.1.13 2000.33 | well queezy thanks for the stupid comment really needed that - i cringe and shake at your obviously superior intelligence....
no one said they dont lie about height. its well known that Andre may have actually been 6'11 and hogan wasn't 6'8, its not the point - the overall point is that this isnt the wee (lol i mean wwe), this is not a good situation for a company that on one hand wants to have an alternative wrestling show, then brings in wwe guys because spike wants them to.
if you take rey misterio seriously in a match with someone like say jbl or the undertaker, then i dont know what to say - i dont care how over you think he is, the mere size difference makes me laugh. he may be able to put on 4 and 5 star matches, but the size difference always makes me change the channel.
i like the idea of calling him 7 feet - that could work, i just hope they dont put him in with guys like petey williams and christopher daniels, thats all im saying.

It's too bad you don't really mean that. Also, it's "Quezzy."
Could you try working on using both cases and a lot more punctuation? Maybe then I'll raise my estimate of YOUR intelligence and be less compelled to ban you the next time you post in this thread that I'm pretty sure nobody cares about but you. Thanks!
(People tend to be pretty patient around here because I make them - but please, stop taking advantage of that fact.)

So it's really more of a matter of personal preference than being a reflection of most viewers' opinions. I'd also venture to guess that you're in the vast minority of people who watch SmackDown and change the channel when Mysterio comes on (if you even watch SmackDown at all). In fact, it almost comes across as if your real problem were that not bashing Mysterio's David-and-Goliath matches clashes with your core values of T & A (Oops, I meant TNA LOL) smarkiness. "The WWE is doing it. Must . . . find . . . fault . . ." Your Lord and Master Jeff Jarrett would be pleased. | tnaisanalternative

I guess you are all a little more full of yourselves than most. I watch Raw, I watch Smackdown - weekly. I like the talent that is on both shows, and I enjoy many of the angles. Jeff Jarrett - please, I cannot stand Jeff Jarrett. I think Jeff Jarrett should not even be on television. But, thats ok. You all seem to be pretty high on yourselves here and think you're God's gift to something, so i'll allow you all to bask in that and bow out of this site forever.

Judging by his humor, he might have meant it as an insult. I get called "queezy" a lot when someone is trying to be cute, thinking that queezy means the feeling you get in your stomach when you're sick. Unfortunately they just make themselves look stupid since it's spelled "queasy" or "queazy" not "queezy". | CRZ

No, please, don't go. Stop, stop, your goodbye is tearing my heart in half. The fact that you think bad things of me will prevent me from sleeping tonight - or tomorrow night - or even the next night after that! But at least I'll probably sleep okay after that.
On another note, you didn't know punctuation meant something on a message board? REALLY? You didn't know punctuation meant something on a message board?
Congratulations on watching all that wrestling, though. Clearly this makes you an expert on...uh...hey, why am I typing this? YOU'RE NEVER EVER COMING BACK EVER
Finally, there IS a difference between having high standards and being high on yourself. Often, the people who can't tell the difference are the same ones who don't find themselves happy here. At least you seem to have the good sense to figure out for yourself that your place is probably on some other message board. Do drop us a line and let us know which one that is so I can find out what I've missed out on by your leaving.
