I just had to share this because it really made me laugh lol.
Vince's quote on TNA in an interview
Dixie Carter's Response
Eric Bischoff's Response #1
Eric Bischoff's Response #2(added to the first later)
Tazz Response
I just find this funny because TNA and a lot of people are focusing just on one word(tawdy) and not the statement as a whole lol. Plus Eric just doesn't come across as brilliant mastermind or even a guy who knows what he's talking to about to me. He just hits me as someone looking for an excuse to divert the negativity towards TNA to WWE and failing at it after all the talk him and Hogan did about increasing TNA's ratings threefold and WWE in general.
Laugh agree with them feel free to discuss
Vince's quote on TNA in an interview
"We're in different businesses. We're in the entertainment business and they're in the ‘pro wrasslin' business. It's different markets. When they moved to Monday nights they threw the kitchen sink at us and only did a fraction of our audience. It doesn't speak well for the type of product they're trying to present with the tawdry, blood-soaked action. I don't think that's what the culture wants these days."
Dixie Carter's Response
"To be called tawdry from the King of Tawdry, that is some compliment!!"
Eric Bischoff's Response #1
So according to reports, Vince McMahon, the guy who wanted to watch his son-in-law perform a sex act on a dead body, asked me to make out with his wife AND daughter, owns a boat called "Sexy Bitch" and wanted to me to promote "Hot Lesbian Action" on his show considers TNA "tawdry"..come on Vince, you are a lot of things (and many that I admire) but don't be a hypocrite.

In response to a well articualted point by member Ben Salmon, I think the real reason VKM reacted publically to TNA is the fact that in the "go home" week of his show, he LOST 1 MILLION VIEWERS going into his make or break PPV of the year. WWE's PPV business is getting slaughtered by UFC and ANY competition on Monday nights is only going to hurt. Thats why he's gone from "no sell VKM" to selling like an Avon Lady.

"Mae Young stuff is all high road, or when JR was sick Dr Hynee bit (classy)! Pot, meet Kettle. Nice to see VKM is a TNA viewer!"
