Cookie - Becky Bayless - TNA

One of the most unfortunate things TNA has done recently is the Robbie E and Cookie thing.
Now I love Becky Bayless, and I am sure Rob Eckos is a fine wrestler, but why did TNA have to bring them in and turn them into "Jersey Shore" clones?
Really, this goes back to the old WWF, and not the cool fun part either.
I suppose this is TNA's way of trying to pull in the MTV fan base.
I'm guessing next will be a Sheldon and Leonard tag team ripping off Big Bang Theory (hey...it's popular!) and maybe a vampire/werewolf tag team to get the Twilight fan base.

The sad thing is that like I mentioned earlier, I really like Becky.
Most people think of her as a valet/announcer/interviewer, but she has gotten in quite a bit of ring time.
Back in 2008, Pro Wrestling Illustrated (PWI) ranked Becky as number 37 in the best 50 female singles wrestlers and she once held the Texas Wrestling Entertainment (TWE) Texas Ladies Championship.
She has worked (as a wrestler) for wrestling promotions Ring of Honor (ROH), Wrestling Superstars Unleashed (WSU), Women Superstars Uncensored and on Wrestlicious (as Brooke Lynn) she took part in the "Hoedown Throwdown" (sigh) twenty girl battle royal.

I don't see why TNA didn't just get Becky some wrestling gear and put her in the ring as a Knockout and not have to resort to this MTV ripoff stuff.
MTV and wrestling doesn't mix.
Remember Wrestling Society X?

One of the more embarrassing moments as JWoww From Jersey Shore faces off with Cookie on TNA iMPACT....



Even though I don't like Cookie, I still love me some Becky, and you can see her live on Saturday, December 18th at CWF Mid-Atlantic’s anniversary event “Battlecade XI”.
ArenaChicks will have her there for a special autograph andphotograph session.

Becky Bayless, Christina Von Erie and Katie Lea at TNA

A couple of Indy wrestlers have gotten try-outs at TNA lately.
As I mentioned last time, Becky Bayless and Rob Eckos are supposed to be doing a parody of "Jersey Shore" stars Snooki and The Situation, and Becky was teamed with Kazuchika Okada in a Dark Match.
Well it seems the try-out dark match didn't go too well.
Becky and Okada took on Shannon Moore and Christina Von Erie in a mixed tag-team match that was called by some "the worst dark match in history."

Lucha Libre fans may have seen Christina working for the Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) wrestling promotion in Mexico.

In other good news, Katie Lea had a tryout with TNA as well.
If you have read this blog for long, you know I had my eye on Katie way back in July of 2007 when she just got to the States.
Kat had a tryout match with former Knockouts Champion, Madison Rayne using the name Katie Larue.
By all accounts that match went very well.

Becky Bayless to TNA

Well as pretty much everybody and their brother are reporting, TNA has signed Becky Bayless to a contract.
She had a try-out match last week, and now the number two wrestling promotion has signed both Becky and Rob Eckos as a parody of "Jersey Shore" stars Snooki and The Situation.
Becky's ring name is rumored to be "Cookie"...like "Snooki"....get it?
Although Becky is way better looking than her MTV counterpart.

Becky (whose real name is Rebecca Treston) was born on February 3rd, 1982, and made her wrestling debut in 2002.
She was trained by Ring of Honor (ROH) and TNA star Homicide.

Becky has worked for wrestling promotions like Ring of Honor, Wrestlicious, Women's Extreme Wrestling, Full Impact Pro and Shimmer Women Athletes.
