Shoot of the Week: Bruce Pritchard on Gut Check

Over the last 14 years I will not lie TNA has had some good ideas, but a lot of bad ideas and at first I thought that Gut Check was a really good idea and a great way to introduce talent to the fans especially if you wanted to sign them. By the end of the gimmicks run it became some what of a joke, but at first it was good. The first edition of Gut Check is remembered because of the botch that is spoken about below.

See in this segment there 3 judges I believe it was D' Lo Brown, Bruce Pritchard, and Ric Flair and then after the first or second one Flair was gone so he got replaced. But very early on in the Gut Check run we saw former OVW talent youngster Alex Silva participant in the segment and win the match which meant he was up for a contract. However, the plan was for him to not get one take a look and hear what actually happened. No wonder why they stopped doing Gut Check!
