So last week Victoria made her debut for TNA (now going under the name 'Tara) while Raven and Douglas made their returns and I am very happy with all three singings.
First of all Victoria is awesome and should be able to have great matches with some of the Knockouts. Hopefully she will turn eventually as crazy Victoria > "I'm not the woman to mess with" Victoria. If she does turn psyco again we could get an awesome Victoria vs Daffney match or maybe she could join their stable given her past with Richards.
And speaking of that stabe- Raven has now joined it! Not sure how long he is there, but I am glad to see him back as I HATED the way they fucked him as soon (AS SOON!) as they got the Spike TV deal. He was a great world champ and they had him job the belt on a house show just so that Jarrett would be the champ when they sent on TV.
As for Douglas, well when I started watching TNA he was there was a backstage interviewer and I am nostalgic for old TNA so I welcome this move too. Word is he may become a manager again rather than a wrestler (thank god) which is fine with me as he's a great talker and I liked his stuff with the Natruals.
Speaking of the Natruals- bring THEM back! They would fit right in with their new focus on tag team wrestling.

I gagged last week when Abyss slammed Stevie into them drawing pins. The blood seeping through his white shirt was grim at best. And managers RULE!! TNA is awesome right now, and signing Raisin, Victoria and The Franchise are great moves. Is Vince Russo off sick or something? I also hear Taz is rumoured to be Joe's secret advisor. Cool, another manager. Did I say managers RULE!!? They indeed do RULE!! I forsee a bunch of factions rising, which is splendid as far as I'm concerned.
Also, that promo The Professor did with the Mafia in the ring was brilliant. Hearing Scott saying he was gonna beat up Joe cos he is a fat son of a bitch (X3) made me spray my beer across the room, and Booker's intermittent "YEAHH!" sounded like some demented Tourettes outburst. The promos in TNA are all getting a hell of a lot better, even the women are getting in on the act, with Angelina sounding ace. I loved the segment a few weeks ago when she was condascending toward Kong at the contract signing.
I'm also marking for Foley's "unfighting champion" gimmick, claiming he will defend only once a year.

Yeah lol and Foley saying that periods happen once a month not title defences made me laugh.
I LOVE Steiner too at the moment. The man is god. The other week when he said he graduated 'Hakuna Matata' and that he was the king of the jungle made me laugh my ass off.
Plus as I keep saying Don West is sooo funny. "I know who Suicide is, but who's that impersonating Daniels?" was the best line I may have ever heard.
Love's apology to Kong was a "oh no she didn't!??" moment. Not sure where they can go with her after the Victoria feud. I want Love to keep the belt, but there is nobody else to fight at the moment... bar ODB, but I loathe her.
EDIT: Also I even liked Cute Kip's promo this week were he solemly asked for a job.
