After a rough few months — okay, years — it looks like TNA is finally back on track.

The Elimination Chamber is here. There’s a lot that looks good, but there’s still plenty that could make Andy angry.
Pro wrestling, for the most part, has been pretty good lately. The Royal Rumble was a solid show. WWE programing has been pretty good. NXT…

Like every other wrestling company, TNA creates a weekly preview of its flagship show, Impact Wrestling (even the ones they’re pretending are pseudo-pay per view supercards like this week’s Genesis Part 2: Electric Piece-A-Poo). And, like every other wrestling company, they don’t always tell the truth when hyping their product. Thankfully, Dave is here to try to figure what TNA is trying to say, and tell you what he thinks, so you don’t have to do either.
