Why the change from individual cup pages?

This page itself is useless in my opinion. TNA has never referenced X Cups in general, they only refer independently to the America's X Cup, World X Cup, and Super X Cup. Each cup is a distinctly different cup which has a different format and focus.

I think we need to revert to having three separate pages again. Clint 06:24, 14 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you actually look at the page you will see this is more of a disabig for all the X-cup tournaments with links branching off to their respective articles... this is just a cleaner, more compact way of displaying breif, summary style information --- Paulley

If its a disambiguation page, then why do pages that did (and should) have their own article get converted into this?Clint 10:28, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Each kind of tournament has a discription on this page and ech individual X tournament has a page! what else do you want? --- Paulley 15:16, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just think that the individual pages were more appropriate, considering each of the tournaments is vastly different and only holds the part of a name "X Cup", X-Division superstar competition, and a really large trophy as similarities. Also, the descriptions have been significantly cut down from what they were in the previous pages... I don't mind this being a disambiguation page should someone just be searching for X Cup in general looking for information on one of the tournaments, but I maintain that three separate pages going more in depth about each of the tournaments is a better fit, especially since TNA acknowledges no "TNA X Cup" commonality between the tournaments.

World X Cup

Since ther is no World X Cup talk page I'll ask here. Is the World X Cup or TNA Cups in general shoot or not? I can't tell since Team USA almost always wins I'm pretty sure they are booked.Yugioh73036 16:50, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lol, their booked... and that's why Team AAA has won most of the America's X Cup as a result of it being something they demanded for the use of AAA talent within TNA. This year expect to see Team Japan walk away with the cup (if not be at least a close second to Canada)... kind of the same deal with talent trading... though personally i wanted Team UK to win/be in it --- Paulley

lol scrap that i just saw the results (maybe TNA were not gonna make the same mistake twice) --- Paulley 18:44, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thx Paulley. I thought that if it was shoot Team Canada or Japan would win lol.Yugioh73036 14:57, 17 May 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036[reply]

Proper Grammar

I think that there should always be a dash (-) in between something with an "X." Wouldn't that be the proper way of writing it? Plus it's also how it's been written on TNAWrestling.com except on pages with fancy designs such as the pages they use for advertising PPVs. TNAWrestling.com doesn't always use the right grammar. For example, during the 2006 World X-Cup Tournament, they typed "World X Cup" simply because a dash wouldn't look good in the design that the letters were in front of. Also they usually type "X-Division" with the dash rather than "X Division" without the dash.

Also I think it would be more respectful to the subject. Without a dash, some might think that the "X" is merely a typo. Especially when discussing the X-Cups. On the keyboard, the letters "X" and "C" are right next to each other. A dash would indicate that the "X" is meant to be there. It may also be considered by some to be a typo that is actually referring to the World Cup in soccer rather than the World X-Cup in professional wrestling. This is also the case with "X-Division." The letter "D" is just above the letter "X" on the keyboard. Some might think it's a typo. A dash should always be used when discussion an "X" in TNA Wrestling.

Even on America's X-Cup...that's how it's typed. With a dash. Look at the photo. It has a dash.

TNA does not hyphenate "X Cup", so no. [1] McPhail 23:20, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well TNA has mistakenly called the Latin American Exchange the "Latin American Express." Something as simple as a dash surely won't be there if they can't even get the names of their wrestlers right. Cassidy Riley's name has also been spelled tons of different ways. Also in Samoa Joe's profile the call his Coquina Clutch a "Choke Sleeper."

2004 Super X Cup

The 2004 Gauntlet for the Gold at Victory Road was for a cup-like trophy, but there is absolutely no evidence from TNA that it was a Super X Cup. TNA never referred to it as such during episodes of Impact, nor during the pay per view. Clint 04:45, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

2007 Turkey Bowl

Should this be added?LessThanClippers (talk) 20:29, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deuces Wild Rules

Are these the right rules for the Deuces Wild tournament: 8 established tag-teams (i.e. teams that are well-known as being partners) compete in qualifying matches. The four winning teams then face four teams of two random TNA wrestlers in a standard 8-team tournament, with the winning team taking the TNA Tag belts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.165.215.90 (talk) 14:33, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion?

Why have we been deleting the pages for TNA's Tournaments such as the X-Cup Tournaments and the Chris Candido Tournament? They were significant tournament events that took place in TNA. In what way would it hurt Wikipedia to have pages about those Tournaments? A lot of people might be really interested in learning about those Tournaments, especially people who may not have previously heard of the Tournaments. Wikipedia is supposed to be an informative website. Keep the pages up and give information about the Tournaments. What is so wrong with that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by DarkSword (talk • contribs) 21:34, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've Made A New Article

I created a brand new article just for the TNA 2004 America's X-Cup Tournament. Leave this page alone! I created it from memory and these are all FACTS, NOT OPINIONS. I'll admit that I cannot remember what the actual match results were, but I typed just enough for people to get the general idea. It gives basic info and it simply tells what happens. It's short, sweet, and informative. If you want me too, I'll just handle the rest of the deleted TNA tournaments as well such as the Chris Candido Tournament and the X-Cup Tournaments. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DarkSword (talk • contribs) 00:57, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

8 card stud

Somebody needs to add the tournament going on right now, that will end at the next pay per view

also someone has to add the tournament where bobby lashley won a word title shot —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.168.27.158 (talk) 16:16, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bound for Glory Series (2011)

In the section for this event the article states The top four wrestlers faced each other in the tournament finals at September's No Surrender, where Bully Ray defeated James Storm via disqualification, while Bobby Roode defeated Gunner via submission, giving both 52 points and setting up a tiebreaker match between the two. In the tiebreaker match, Roode defeated Ray via pinfall to win the tournament. This is then contradicted by the table which places Rob van Dam at fourth and James Storm at fifth and yet doesn't mark van Dam as one of those who withdrew. So what gives? Is van Dam's fourth place vandalism (I saw the semi finals and it definitely was the named four who took part in them) or did he withdraw but isn't marked as such because of some typically screwy piece of TNA booking? Either way a sentence should be added to the section explaining this as it just looks inaccurate at the moment. Keresaspa (talk) 01:17, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

By being disqualified at No Surrender, James Storm lost ten points and therefore dropped behind Van Dam.TheFBH (talk) 01:19, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK, that makes sense. Thanks for the double quick response :) Keresaspa (talk) 01:29, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
