I think Russo gets far too much credit for the success of the Attitude era. WWE had some of the greatest wrestling talents of all time during those years (Steve Austin, The Rock, Mick Foley, Shawn Michaels, The Undertaker, Triple H plus alot more) there was no way they could easily go wrong. If anything, the Russo storylines and all that GTV stuff kind of put me off, and even if it did bring in more viewers, it was only because of the star quality of the wrestlers on the roster.

On the surface of it Dan, TNA has been pretty poor this year, but things are now about to pick up, by the looks of things. Theyve got some good veterans and some decent up and comers, all they need to do is cut down on the WCW2000 Russo storylines and they could be a really good show.
The last Impact was better than anything Raw have put on in a long time (probably since the draft or when they came to England).

It was pretty good episode of Impact last time out, actually did surprise me as I've not seen too many in a while.Booker T coming in is a very good signing and the crowd really reacted well to him.
Sabu and RVD are meant to be coming in soon and all, they'll make it all the more interesting.
I agree about Russo.To me , he really is a hindrance, the bloke's always trying to do something controversial but a lot of it just ends up being ridiculous.

Booker's entrance was great, the fans loved him. How can they go wrong with that? Well, knowing TNA they could find a way, but it'd be criminal if they ruined it.
Sabu and RVD would be just another plus for them, RVD in particular. I agree with Redmond about RVD going back to WWE eventually, but if he did end up going to TNA, that'd be a hell of a deal. Alot of people love RVD, so he'd definitely get the ratings up, especially if the shows keep getting better as a whole.
