Not immediately, no. A few years down the line, though, and they would have looked at it with fond nostalgia.

Those two title matches and Lesnar vs Cena reminded me why I love wrestling. Fucking spectacular. Felt like I was a kid again.

Feel like I haven't seen Sin Caraco or Los Matadores on Raw for a while. Given up on those experiments already?

Can't wait to see Nakamura, though, since I do love a good personality in professional wrestling. Especially one that I can't quite pinpoint why I love it so much (The Brian Kendrick, for example). |

Massive History between Tanahashi and Nakamura. Would equate their rivalry to stonecold and the rock.
They were a successful tag team earlier in their careers. Since then they've both won the IWGP title multiple times. They've faced off too many times to count, but this is actually the fourth time that Tana vs Naka has headlined the Tokyo Dome if I'm not mistaken. Not sure if any other rivalry can say that. |

Nakamura is the CM Punk of NJPW. Massively entertaining and one of the best in the ring, but for whatever reason has never "the guy". Tanahashi is the John Cena of Japan in many ways.

I'm watching Nakamura and thinking he could be a player in WWE. It's unlikely, of course, but he's got this energy and style about him that I think could translate well. He clearly has no problem putting a well-paced match together.

Sorry to intrude on the enjoyable Jap Chat here...Old School Raw tonight...piecing this together in my head..
Hulk Hogan is supposedly going to play some part in Mania..Too early for a return? Brrrrock Lesnar reportedly is planning something 'Old School' In my head that equates to Lesnar decimating Hogan, which can only be a good thing.. |

Feel free to chime in Sex, Old School RAW tonight
We should be excited for anything, I personally wouldn't be mad to see Hogan come back tonight, I think the Road To WrestleMania should start at the beginning of the year, but we'll see |

I'm not sure on the whole Hogan thing...The WWE has a superb roster right now and I feel like they should be utilising that to create new stars rather than spike ratings with old timers like Hogan...
He's been absolutely cringeworthy in TNA and hasnt exactly done much for their ratings with his presence.. He's clearly in too bad a shape to wrestle a match and I don't see how he can build someone without putting them over... And even if he could wrestle and job to some young up and comer how impressive can they make it seem? I mean Hogan as he is now? A teenager could legit take him out... |

I'm not sure I'm interested in seeing him at all. In any capacity...It was his inane involvement that stopped me watching TNA.
Looks like Too Cool are getting decimated by Lesnar tonight in any case judging by the 'Spoilers' on the front page... Can see Brrrock half botching the F5 on Rikishi now... |

I enjoy the classic namebars on OLD SCHOOL RAWs
I was hoping for a manager Hogan and manager Ultimate Warrior to get two guys elevated a bit. I know realistically they hate each other and wouldn't work together |

As noted earlier, negotiations between TNA and Toby Keith, who was the main person looking to purchase the company, apparently fell through. Jeff Jarrett was expected to be a part of the promotion in a key role if the sale happened, due to his relationship with Keith. Shortly after talks between Keith and TNA fell through, Jarrett announced that he was parting ways with TNA. On tonight's episode of his podcast, which you can listen to at MLW.com, Konnan said that he spoke with Jarrett and that Jarrett will be making an announcement this week about a new project. He said that Jarrett told him that TNA is in really bad shape, and that he doesn't know and doesn't care if they see through the year. Konnan then pretty much stated that Jarrett would be starting a new promotion with Keith. In perhaps an unrelated note, Jim Ross noted on his Twitter last Tuesday that he had a "great meeting with a major sports concern... Could be big...and fun!" He wrote later in the week that he had dinner with Keith and others in New Orleans while he was in town for the Sugar Bowl. A fan mentioned the meeting with Keith and brought up Jeff Jarrett, to which Ross replied:

A quick convo I just had with my brother.
Me: In other news- Mike Jones just got a pay check. Bro: Who? Me: lonelyvirgil.net He's DLC in the new WWE game. Pretty sure this means he got paid for that. Bro: He held as many titles as Jake Roberts with less than half the charisma. Have him open a gym and call it a day. Me: Or do drugs, find god, do more drugs, find god, do drugs, move to europe, do drugs, move back to the states, do drugs, find god, do drugs, do yoga, beg fans for money, live with DDP, call it a day. |

Don't know how much of payday he got. They released Virgil DLC for free.
