Abyss needs a total repackaging. Losing the mask would be the best thing for him. It drops all the mankind comparisons and freshens his character. Besides there's absolutely no charm left to his character anymore. Hogan turning on Abyss would be bad because honestly Abyss would still end up being a goof. Foley turning on Abyss didn't change anything so I don't know why Hogan would. Abyss just needs to go full on heel and get evil.
When they've tried to get away from old masked Abyss thats when the characters sucked. What they need to do is take him back to what he used to be.
A total repackaging is often as lazy as Hollywood's easy way out of rebooting when they don't want to put the effort into fixing something. Abyss isn't far gone enough that they can't salvage his old character.
If he looses the Abyss character whats he gonna do? I can't think of one thing that wouldn't be stupid or already been done.
Him loosing the mask will simply give people another excuse to say that he's copying another Kane storyline since Kane did the same thing.
Keeping the mask and going full heel at least makes him stand out because Foley and Kane lost theirs long ago. Rey loosing his mask did him no favors either and it was the same people in charge in WCW.
If Abyss and TNA Creative could make loosing the mask work I'd say go for it but they've shown in the past they can drop the ball on this kind of thing.
well sorry this match didn't show it. they looked like a couple of rejects from a backyard wrestling fed and wrestled even worse
i'm not defending the divas. i don't want the women wrestler to look like life size barbies, but its just two opposite extremes but its a shame the decent female wrestlers get nothing where we get "dolls" or "freaks"
i've tried to give tna a chance but seriously it's just painful to watch
Thats because TNA has variety in its wrestlers, especially the women. You haven't been paying attention or otherwise you'd know that.
Are Angelina Love, Tara, Roxxi, and Sarita freaks? No. Are they dolls? No.
You've got freaks, you've got good mat wrestlers, you've got high flyers, you've got eye candy. And most of them are either decent or great in the ring. Id argue that at one point Love may have been one of the most well rounded overall wrestlers in WWE and TNA. She can talk, she's got charisma and she's pretty good in the ring. She was certainly the linchpin of the Beautiful People during their first run when they were one of the better (mens OR womens) stables in WWE/TNA.
Whats wrong with variety? Daffney's one of the better womens wrestlers in the two big companies she just has a particular style which is pretty hardcore.
You've taken a snapshot and generalized the whole division. Daffney vs ODB was simply them showing Daffney as insane which will further the Tara/Daffney feud. Which is already better than any feud going on in WWE right now.
Give me Daffney throwing a guard rail on Tara and beating the crap out of her with a chair vs Michelle McCool and this ridiculous Piggy James nonsense any day.
And if you hate TNA so much why watch at all? Just to complain? Seems like a waste of energy. You make it sound like the entire show was terrible. There was plenty of crap Thursday but some good too.
