Hiya lads. I'm fully caught up on your excellent work now and was pleasantly surprised that your Total Non-stop Hogan arc starts with what is an objectively better show than before the great orange racist debuts. The card consists of pretty much the same roster that the company worked with in 2010, but I'm halfway through 2010 on TNA plus, but the shows are getting progressively less enjoyable by the week. Really looking forward to your slow descent into madness watching the ongoing nonsense. Take care & much love, Chris Bellis.
