Dave7g Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I have Eurosport not British Eurosport, so I wonder to my self when in the hell is it on? I havent seen it on Fridays for a while, is it repeated during the week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyndorf Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 It says in the Sun TV guide, that at 6pm tonight on Eurosport 2 thay have a show simply called "Wrestling". That might be it, it may however be one of those 10 year old Bushido shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave7g Posted October 19, 2005 Author Share Posted October 19, 2005 Yeah, I think its called "shooto". I don't have Eurosport 2. Just your good old fashioned Eurosport! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 The TNA Wrestling on EuroSport is a bit hit and miss really, I think it airs every fornight, but now apprently it will be shown on these dates; 22. October, 19:00 - 20:00 28. October, 21:30 - 22:30 11. November, 22:00 - 23:00 18. November, 22:00 - 23:00 PS - These dates are on Saturdays, not Fridays from what I understand.

Danny Styles Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 it is an insult to TNA (eurosports coverage is) there is no real commentary and they only show matches... TNA is being butchered on Eurosport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 The commentary is hilarious. There's one guy who clearly knows nothing about what's going on, and his colleague sounds like a 19 year old who probably emailed Eurosport and said "I know about wrestling, can I have a job?". That guy sounds like he's trying to do a JR impression, but doesn't sounds right because he's a kid with an annoying English accent. I also think it sounds like he's looking at a newborn baby as he calls the moves. "Aaaaw, there's the powerbomb. Aaaaaw, he goes for the cover. Aaaaaaw, he kicked out!". Just terrible. I don't have a clue why they can't just keep in the original commentary by Tenay and West. The least they could do is have some guy in the Eurosport studio introducing each match, but letting the real TNA commentary team do their job. With the current team of Annoying Kid and Clueless Man, the show is coming off as a joke rather than an alternative to WWE. It seriously is going to cost them ratings unless they can sort something else out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.J Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Eurosports coverage sucks, basically they're saying wrestlings fake, everyone knows wrestlings fake, but let's make it look like a legitimate contest, even though the whole world knows it's not. Is TNA still shown on TWC, all I've seen on there recently is classic TNA in a proper ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seriously is going to cost them ratings unless they can sort something else out. because every country that gets eurosport has its own commentary... and mabye TNA-commentary will say the name of the channel its on.. well every time i catch it on euro i happily choose english as my language... the dutch guy sucks even more!!! its the same man that does the K1 and MMA... and ONLY , read this.. ONLY covers the punches... you'd get 3 minutes of dead air and he'd go.. "aah a punch.. what a fight.. " and everytime there is a fight outside of the ring he goes "well this doesnt belong in a wrestling match.." oh and everything is a "trow!".. ddt's to neckbreakers... its a 'trow!'
