your comparing 4 different companies with different audiences. UFC is real, WWE has rubbish wrestlers, ROH has a hardcore fan base and TNA has a six-sided ring.
Still TNA is the best

No the latter 3 are pro wrestling companies where as the first one is an MMA company, thats the big difference, no matter which one has more support or what ring they use its still wrestling

Fake is not a good word to describe it. Do you call stunt work fake? Do you call dancing fake? Ice skating? Skateboarding? None of them involve people actually hitting each other. They're all performance sports where what you do can be staged. But pro wrestling gets disrespected just because it looks like combat sports? That's clearly not right.

And... 'predetermined' isn't a good word to describe it either. In the normal way of things, only the win/loss result is predetermined. What actually happens during the match is decided during the match.

'Real' is a short word too. Should we use that because it's short? No, because it gives the impression to people that it's a combat sport. The same misleading quality applies to 'fake' too. Neither are appropriate.

Hehe, I can rly get pedantic about this kind of thing. happy That's just me tho I hate people disrespecting wrestling.

i got a little secret for you. the stuff they do in the ring is decided before they come out. they hardly talk during the match. in some cases they have to change it due to injuries. and the ref even lets them know when the match is running long. know about wrestling i know fake is a negative word, i even know that some wrestlers get mad when you call it fake(which i would never do in front of one) but its short and it describes it fine.

Mmm as much as I want TNA to succeed I've got to admit that they really are sucking lately, especially with Lockdown, which I thought was a let down. Let's see if they can step it up a notch now they've got a new champion and TNA Impact! coming out this Summer.

UFC is MMA so that doesn't really count.

WWE is doing very good at the minute and Wrestlemania 24 was fantastic, although they still have some questionable tactics and put on duff matches.

ROH, therefore, wins it in my opinion. ROH really stepped up their game in 2006 during the CZW invasion angle and they've been excellent ever since. For people in the UK go to channel 427 on SKY and they're showing ROH re-runs from 2006...I highly recommend it.

No disrespect to any TNA fans, I mean they have the greatest potential, best roster, best match types and of course the six sided ring, they just need to ditch the crap stroylines and go back to doing what made them different in the first place...putting on awesome fast paced wrestling, having the greatest tag team of any promotion and putting on hardcore matches that the original ECW would look up to.

U've never taken a bump or done any type of training, have you? Anyway, I feel all of televised wrestling is unfortunetly going stale. But, if I had to chose, TNA, cause WWE has gotten down right ridiculous with some of the storylines.

what part of my post made it seem that i never trained, or taken a bump. was it the use of the term fake. would staged be better for you people. or i can say the stories are fake but the bumps and slams and slaps and blood is real. no too long i'll stick with fake. also i trained for a year, competed in a show, injured my neck and will not compete agiain.
