What grade does TNA get now that we're halfway through the year?

D-
That's because of EC3, Spud, Bram, the EC3 vs Spud feud culminating in that great match, Storm still delivering on the mic, Roode, Aries, the Bram vs Magnus feud, and Lashley.

To quote Denzel Crocker "F!"
Let's see: no shows, talent leaving by the dozen, sagging ratings, getting kicked off in September, people not getting paid, idiotic storylines, subpar divisions, and now this fiasco with GFW?
F's for everyone!

A+
I don't watch the show as I gave up in like 2010 and only watch segments when I hear a lot about them. So I'm not grading this on anything based on stories or in ring action or enjoyability week in and week out.
No, I vote A+ because I haven't had this much fun talking wrestling in years. I haven't been this excited for new threads and newz and tweets and anything else as I have been since all of this DA nonsense started.
SO yeah, it's for all of the wrong reasons, but TNA has been the most entertaining company all year.

I haven't been this excited for new threads and newz and tweets and anything else as I have been since all of this DA nonsense started. SO yeah, it's for all of the wrong reasons, but TNA has been the most entertaining company all year. I have to agree with this. The irony in this whole situation being that watching TNA die has been more entertaining than their show ever was. Watching WCW die was no fun because it was, at one point, the best company in America, and even when it went under, still had a pretty great roster of guys. Watching ECW die was no fun because, right up until the final show, it was still a pretty damn good product, despite having lost pretty much ALL of the guys who had been synonymous with their brand (the fact that the show was still so good despite such a thin roster speaks volumes about Heyman's true talent as a booker). TNA dying? Pure f***ing gold. Because they have NONE of those things. What they DO have is the most inept, idiotic person in wrestling history running the company, who is seemingly TRYING to make them look bad. They also have a revolving door of PR nightmares on their roster who seem intent on f***ing themselves. The shows are unbelievably bad, almost 5 Dollar Wrestling bad, but unintentionally so. And honestly, with the exception of a couple small patches of time here and there, they have ALWAYS been pretty inept at EVERYTHING, just not quite so much on the surface. Now, it's a daily exercise in schadenfreude. Lets face it: This board has even gotten better (and busier) since TNA started sucking so hard in public. It's almost too bad that TNA can't continue to die forever, because the entertainment value of the whole thing is so high.

I gave them a B for Bankruptcy
I think that both Rob Black and Nick Gulas (after Jarrett left with Lawler) were better promoters than Dixie

Overall, F minus.
But, for entertainment value and realizing how stupid this company can actually be, A plus.

E for effort. You can tell there are still people who give a damn, they're sadly being undermined by incompetent morons with more clout.

Do we need to actually give a grade? Can't we just point and laugh?

I'm inclined to agree with Cornfed & CMPunkyBrewster in that a dying TNA is far more interesting and compelling then TNA has ever been. On the other hand, it's frigging abysmal.

F doesn't go low enough. I give them a Y. The only thing preventing them from getting a Z is EC3.

F
So far, the only compelling reason to give this company anything else is the entertainment value in watching the company push the standard for failure lower and lower.
