If GFW does merge with TNA, what does it accomplish? GFW doesn't have a TV deal and come September, neither does TNA. Without that, both companies might as well not even exist.
What I really think this news is? If it's anything, it's DA officially confirming TNA is done come September. They should be announcing their up-fronts for the fall season soon, and that's when TNA's cancellation becomes official.
edit-
Or alternatively, it'll be revealed AA is heading out the door. As noted in another thread, his contract expires immediately after Slammi. Losing AA would be a big blow the the company.

Latest on Jarrett's twitter:
"Not the 1st time... Certainly will not be the last-- Legalities can/will kill a deal quicker than anything... #NotForLackOfEffort"

WHY THE HELL WOULD ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND KEEP DIXIE AROUND? SHE IS LITERALLY DRIVING A SHIP INTO AN ICEBERG, BACKING IT UP, AND THEN CRASHING INTO THE SAME ICEBERG OVER AND OVER AGAIN. She is "literally" doing that, huh? "Darn straight she is!"

I wonder, if it is the Merger... does that mean Panda dropped the Dixie must remain condition, or Jeff Jarrett is going to keep Dixie. WHY THE HELL WOULD ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND KEEP DIXIE AROUND? SHE IS LITERALLY DRIVING A SHIP INTO AN ICEBERG, BACKING IT UP, AND THEN CRASHING INTO THE SAME ICEBERG OVER AND OVER AGAIN. Titnaic

So were we ever actually given a timeline of when this 'bad news' would come out? It feels like someone saw the Jarrett tweets (which were probably just to drum up more interest around GFW given that about 5 people collectively bought tickets to their shows) and made up a rumor.

But TNA would be merging with nothing... Nothing plus nothing makes nothing. For a merger to happen, you gotta have SOMETHING. Official Theme song of GWFTNA I thought it was a shot at Tazz who said that all the time but then I remembered that Tazz left. If anybody thinks GFW isn't going to not be linked with TNA they already have I mean Six Sided ring (Not that big of a deal) But they also have Don West doing the Merchandise sale. Again I have no issues with that. To make this not TNA all over again is having angles that work. They need the behind the scenes guys not be this revealing door of people since Russo left booking and not be Russo period. You also need to make sure the people put in the different positions are qualified to do it. That's Dixie biggest issue because she a freaking mark to say if they where in the WWE that means they can do everything. I mean some second rate Tough enough Producer Big John DOESN'T make him qualified to be the head of Talent relations and no wonder why the real talent as been leaving left and right and they only resigned guys who wouldn't made it out of FCW in the WWE and likely not be on NXT programing. Yet they are put on TV. Just because someone worked in the WWE doesn't mean they are worth it. They where released from the WWE for a reason and I don't mean this is always the case but most of the time it is.

Jeff Jarrett @realjeffjarrett 6 min Well, stranger things have happened... Not a "done deal", but huge turnaround this morning... Definitely headed in the right direction...
Jarrett is going for that milf ass, Dixie.

Yeah, TNA really should just let GFW buy them out if that's what this is. Global Force Wrestling is a far stronger name than TNA and might actually get somebody competent in the decision-making role.

I'm assuming the Bad News is that TNA is still alive?

The more I think about it - if this was a serious, serious negotiation it feels like bad form for Jeff to be tweeting about it. I feel like everyone is getting worked.

With TNA it's sufficient to just call it "news"

Awfully nice of him to make it ALL ABOUT HIMSELF yet again, but he does raise points that everyone else has been raising for a while now. No one's held accountable, because Dixie won't even hold herself accountable. Everyone else gets blamed.

You could have also excluded Russo from returning to TNA if this merger happens because he also burned his bridges with Jeff Jarrett years ago.

If it's about a merger with TNA, I don't think that'd be the case. Right now, all the signs make me more willing to assume "Jarrett's trying to steal the Destination America timeslot from TNA" than "Jarrett's trying to make a hostile takeover on TNA"- the timeslot is more valuable than TNA's name, and it's likely there would be that hardship (between seeing if D-A will allow the timeslot, seeing if Jarrett legally COULD go after TNA's timeslot or if it was "only Spike TV's timeslot", etc.)
