TNA's past 'suckitde' and WWE having the Muppets on is mutually exclusive
also the Muppets have appeared 'in character' on Talk shows all the time -- rarely if ever has the puppeteer done an interview about 'playing the Muppet' since Henson himself passed away so of course the Muppets will be treated as 'real' in other promotional appearances
and get your facts straight The Muppets have always aimed at or above 'a family show' rather than at the kids a la Sesame Street -- watch the classics again and tell me there is no 'Parental bonus'
and frankly, all things considered I'll take a week of Sheamus reminding Beaker about the Family Reunion over 2 years of Hogan and Bischoff holding back TNA Originals
so for every Muppets Skit that makes you think I'm 8 years old I'll raise you an Eric Bischoff and his kid on the Mic and Ric Flair bleeding for no reason that makes me think You're mentally handicapped
