How do you see it unfolding? This is going with the idea that they will in fact live and sign to WGN America and nothing more/nothing less. If we want to debate whether they'll even live to 2015 then there are already threads for that.
So the company has a pretty skeletal roster right now. I'm thinking they should keep what talent they have and otherwise use a rotating number of indie workers to be brought in for brief programs/guys to make their core talent shine. Saying this is an ultra broad statement of coruse but I think it is a significant step in rebuilding. Bobby Roode is actually a pretty great champion (at least he was in the past). Although I think Lashley might have been a smarter choice to attract some shit munchers, if he costs too much so be it. That is the only reason I could really see taking the title of Lashley at this point.
Feel free to crack some jokes guys, but I'm interested in what people will think TNA will look like on WGN America and in 2015.

If TNA is smart, they will book a Bobby Roode-EC3 feud.

No clue what they would look like on WGN America because I don't get that channel......then again maybe I do, but I'm damn sure not going to search it out to see TNA.

Do people in Chicago get it for free? There are 2 WGN. The original local channel on television in the Chicago market and WGN America, which is the national cable channel. About 5 years ago, they created the latter, slowly changing the cable channel from the local feed to a separate cable, with only a couple of shows, news/sports being the same. |

Well they're pretty much gonna become another indy. I think actually they have a chance for a new beginning if they can survive, but they're only going down further with Dixie running it. I wish Bob would stop just spoiling her and sell the damn thing.

I like the idea of keeping some of the core talents and rotating with some indie names. Bobby Roode, EC3, James Storm, Austin Aries (if possible), Eric Young, I think you must find a way to keep those guys on your roster. But like JBY just said, I don't know how long they can survive with Dixie Carter being at the helm of the promotion. She makes bad business move after bad business move. I don't know why her parents don't step up to take that away from her. She's losing THEIR money in the process.

Looking at how they're doing right now still with Spike's money backing them, I don't see them surviving a year on WGN.

1.They absolutely have to improve their marketing branch to be successful. I knew TNA's marketing sucked, but I didn't realize how badly they sucked until I watched AJ's shoot interview.
2.I think creatively TNA is starting to figure some things out (which means they'll screw it up soon), but if they don't focus on being like WWE they'll be ok.

Random matches with whatever talent they happen to have under contract at the time?

Question what did AJ say about them in his shoot? That tna did a shitty job advertising themselves, for example, he told a story about him being on a shop and a fan approaching him asking him what was he doing in town, aj said that tna was doing a show that night, the fan was surprised, saying that he hadn't heard anything from radio to newspapers. There also was a story about fans asking guys like rvd and angle why they retired, they didn't even knew what tna was. |
