3. Here we go again with unbeatable superhuman Cena. He's gonna win every damn match this year isn't he? If he ends up WWE Champion I'll vomit.

Prepare to vomit then :p

Along with the announcement of a brand new PPV structure for TNA and Impact Wrestling comes a few changes to their pricing system. Tonight's Genesis PPV will remain $34.95, as will the already advertised TNA Lockdown event in March. TNA Slammiversary will cost $39.95, with Bound for Glory seeing a slight increase to $44.95.

Perhaps the best news to come out of this major shift in TNA formatting are the "One Night Only" pre-recorded PPVs. These special events will air on the first Friday of every month, beginning in April, and will only cost $15 each.

TNA taped the first two months of these specialty shows this weekend. For full results, visit Wrestlezone.com.

oh man, $15 for a show taped months in advance

So if someone loses a title for a ppv not meant to be shown for 3 months does that mean he doesn't get his title till that day? sounds dumb to do this to me unless theres never a title change.

I'd guess not

They are theme-PPVs. No title matches.

Exactly. Unfortunately, they've gone about these great-sounding specials in the worst possible way by making them taped PPVs. If they were simply taped specials (maybe to be shown on another channel in America, like WWE's Saturday Night's Main Event on NBC) with no money being paid to watch them (outside of paying for the TV channel; I don't know if you have to pay for Spike TV), there wouldn't have been an issue.

There is talk within WWE that Randy Orton may need some time off soon to deal with a personal situation. No word yet on what the issue is, but it has nothing to do with the Wellness or behavioral issues that have kept him out of the ring in recent years.

According to rumours online,

WWE Divas Champion Eve is leaving the company. She'll most likely drop the title tonight. Her contract is apparently up and she doesn't want to stay. It's a shame, Eve was one of the better divas on the roster. That's over half a dozen gone in a year.

The backstage morale was up last night after TNA Genesis. The feeling was that it was a solid show with an excellent main event, but everyone did a good job and the company was moving in the right direction.

Nothing happened after the PPV ended beyond Jeff Hardy celebrating with fans.

Hulk Hogan has been added to the London and Manchester dates of the UK tour, which makes sense since they are going to be TV tapings.

Speaking of Hogan, his re-filed lawsuit against Gawker Media and Heather Clem over his sex tape has been transferred back over to Judge James D. Whittemore to preside over. Whittemore was overseeing the original case against just Gawker. This is probably not a move Hogan will like since Whittemore had been denying his attempts to get the court to force Gawker to remove the video clips from online viewing.

The main event segment for Thursday's Impact Wrestling is the Bully Ray-Brooke Hogan wedding. It sure seems like they are primed to pull the trigger on a few angles and this may be where they happen.

On Friday, TNA will tape the 1/24 edition of Impact Wrestling, which will be headlined by TNA champion Jeff Hardy vs. Christopher Daniels. They are taping in advance due to the UK tour the following week.

If anyone is attending any night of the TNA overseas tour, we are seeking live reports.

Samoa Joe is doing a seminar for the Ludus Wrestling School this Saturday 1/20 in Brooklyn, NY. For details, click here.

The funniest comment I've heard about the Brooke Hogan wedding: "Is Linda Hogan invited?"

lol ....another title match at a taping

^ They have plenty of female wrestlers, they just don't use them correctly - or at all.

Let AJ and Kaitlyn have 15 minutes and I bet you'd see the best divas match in years.

Oh I totally agree, WWE just released a decent wrestler in Buggy, it's time to promote Paige from NXT
