Sunset Flip Presents
Do You Like Tyler Black
By Jim Boy Star
After attending the Ring of Honor show in New York this past Saturday, one thing was clear. Most of the Ring of Honor that night were not fans of the Ring of Honor World Champion Tyler Black.
It was said on my show, Sunset Flip Wrestling Show, that I did not want Tyler Black to win in the Manhattan Center. However, I felt that I was the only one that thought that. I have read reports that Cary Silkin himself asked a fan or two why they did not like Tyler Black. Not sure of the response though.
To be very honest, I was very surprised that so many people did not like him that night. I was prepared to be in the minority on Saturday night and wound up being in the majority.
I mentioned a few weeks ago about the anniversary of the passing of Harry Kalas, who was the voice of summer for Philadelphians. Baseball lost another classic voice this past week with the passing of longtime Detroit Tigers announcer Ernie Harwell.

(WEST PATERSON, NJ)- When the average fan of professional wrestling thinks about the industry, two main brands come to mind: WWE and TNA.
Why are these two brands the only ones that are recognized?
Well, that comes down to many things: corporate sponsorship, prime time air time on television stations, pay-per-view time, pyrotechnics, ratings, merchandise, appealing to a broad spectrum of an audience, and other issues.

The Katz Files
TNA in Retreat
The Kingfish Arnie Katz analyzes TNA after the retreat to Thursday he predicted on Monday morning came true by Monday night.
Bubba the Love Sponge, it was widely reported, attacked TNA’s Dixie Carter. Among his complaints is that she listens to Internet journalists instead of Hulk Hogan.
How I wish that were true! Still, perhaps Dixie likes to read “The Katz Files.” If so, the best advice I could give her would be to do as Bubba the Love Sponge said and listen to Hulk Hogan.
Specifically, listen to the show-closing segment with Sting from the 5/3 iMPACT. that featured the confrontation between Sting and Hulk Hogan. So much of what is wrong with TNA is encapsulated in that segment that I don’t see how TNA (and Spike TV) executives could watch it and not immediately start to develop an exit strategy.
Let’s review the ways in which that segment represents a wrong-headed approach and a failure to reach TV’s standards for The professional entertainment.
Edge has once again turned heel, was it a good or bad move?
When Edge injured this past year, he made a brief video about it while he was on Smackdown. Many fans realized that he’d be turning face when he returns. And without surprise, he returned as a face at the Royal Rumble. While he wasn’t exactly a true “fan favourite,” he still received fairly positive crowd reaction. But still, his face character just didn’t have that “it” factor that would make him standout from the rest of the faces on the roster. There was nothing special about it, just a typical, good-guy face. Soon enough, it became evident to WWE, that Edge was much better off as a heel.
