Billy: "Guys...we're going to have to pull all your crooked teeth, so you'll be perfect just like me" Wrestlers: WUT

Billy has been done with Resistance since November. if he brings in some of his "guys" it would be interesting, seeing Robert Anthony, Mr. 450, Melanie Cruz, and Jay Bradley getting pushes on TNA would be pretty fun. it would be good if he can convince Raven to come in as an agent again like in Resistance. You know, I've never seen Mr. 450, but that name puts me right off. Screams that he knows he's only got one trick in his bag. Again, I have no idea of that's true or not, but that's the first impression right off the bat.

Off topic, but I would love to paint an ice cream truck with all my friends.

I'm up for some fresh ideas ... if he has any. I never watched Resistance Pro so I don't know how his booking is but I hope he's not stuck in the 90's with his ideas for wrestling because I could see that being the reason Dixie hired him in the first place. She loves herself some ECW.
Edit: read more about his social justice ideas, and now I'm just hoping TNA doesn't turn into Tumblr where everyone is suddenly a SJW.

Wasn't Billy one of the guys trying to buy TNA before the DA deal came together?

So instead of a six side ring, the action well take place in a ball pit with everyone cutting promo about checking your privilege and how Angle's moonsault "trigger" them and give them self-diagnosed ptsd?

This just in: GFW signs Axl Rose to creative team in response. "Fans can expect a TV deal in roughly the same amount of time it took for me to release Chinese Democracy..." No word yet on the rumors of Los Lonley Boys joining Lucha Underground. if axl ever became a part of any promotion it would most likely be either Dragon Gate or PWG as those are the two main promotions that he follows closely and is a huge mark for according to Del James (one of Axl's best friends and the tour manager for GNR) Del told a story in vegas last year Dean Ambrose went to one of the gigs and they told him he was there and Axl was in awe when he met him. also thinking more of this, Billy is in the middle of a tour i believe, and about to start a new one with Marilyn Manson shortly, plus hes working on the last tear garden free album deal. when will he actually have time to do this thing?? or even appear on tv (assuming Dixie goes "OMG! WE GOT A NAME!! THROW HIM ON TELEVISION!!"

TNA has already done self-diagnosed PTSD with Shaw and Gunner. That went down well.

No word yet on the rumors of Los Lonley Boys joining Lucha Underground. That second one could never happen, I'm pretty sure Los Lonely Boys are already allied with TNA as well. I mean, the only think people heard for them would be them saying "Saaaaaaaaaaaaave me from this prison! Lord, help me get awaaaayyy..."

TNA storylines are basically tailor made for MRAs. Billy would be practically saving the company.

Given that wrestling's relationship to sexual/racial/gender issues has usually been a plethora of racism, sexism, homophobia, biphobia and transphobia, saying that you could touch on the issues but have a positive ending sounds like a breath of fresh air.
But grahhgh the evil SJWs are out to conquer the world from their Tumblr fortress of doom or something.

At least this is getting TNA some MSM coverage. Saw this was mentioned on Pardon The Interruption, although Wilbon did have no idea what TNA is.

Our ring has six sides and only one everlasting gaze. Plus TNA is definitely a Zero.

"We can watch the world devoured in its pain," should be Impact's tagline.

It's 2:00 AM in New York and I can honestly without hyperbole say as someone who works in media and monitors social media trends, I've seen more media coverage of TNA today thanks to Billy Corgan than Hulk Hogan brought them over four years.
I'm optimistic, but even if this is a shameless media attention grab, a lot more people were made aware of what TNA is today than they were 24 hours ago.

But grahhgh the evil SJWs are out to conquer the world from their Tumblr fortress of doom or something. If TNA were to touch on those issues respectfully and end things in a positive way I would be amazing and probably gain a huge respect from them. Unfortunately, I expect a transgender Sam Shaw angle that ends with him ripping off a wig and berating my entire existence before any of that.
