Got to disagree with you here, Dozer. An angle needs to progress. This one isn't progressing at all in any meaningful way. The identities of the individual members of Aces & EIghts are almost irrelevant (especially if they have never had anything to do with TNA before). It is their motives that are important, and we still have no idea what those are... and we are five months into this angle. Nothing Aces & Eights has done has had any consequences whatsoever for any character on the show aside form making some people angry a bit. The execution has been extremely poor, and what little we know of the backstory either contradicts established continuity, defies common sense, or makes no sense at all.

This is is EXACTLY my problem. I have no reason to care because 1) They've been around so long and aside from attacking people randomly, they really haven't done that much (besides fight for access to Impact so they can keep... Doing what, exactly?) and 2) After unveiling Gallows and Devon, they really haven't gone anywhere with that. I mean, Bully Ray went from having a potential angle with Devon to what, screwing Brooke Hogan? TNA really dropped the ball on that one. And hey, Gallows was associated with a World Champion and a man someone would consider the best in the world! Give him a bit more of a character and do something where he believes he's learned enough from working with Punk that he has what it takes to turn TNA on its ears and change the way things are done. Make him the face of A8s, not some guy in a mask. Especially some guy in a mask with no personality whatsoever.

I could go on at length about this but at the moment I have to get ready for school.

Never mind personality... the man doesn't even have a NAME?!
They made such a big stink about the masks being ultra important to Aces & Eights' plan, and yet once they come off, it has absolutely no effect on anything at all.
