TNA will reportedly be only taping Impact Wrestling events going forward and have scrapped plans to tape several One Night Only PPVs at the upcoming July tapings.
The plan is to tape through to November or December of this year with afternoon and evening sessions.

Assuming they even GET that far...
September's gonna be the end of their DA tenure, and it doesn't look like they're gonna stay on after that.

No wonder Kong said she will ring in the New Year with TNA. Because with how they would be taping, she will be. Just in July instead of December.

TNA know the L of the century is coming but they don't want to admit it.

Something else, this means BFG is dead. There is no possible way for them to hold it.

Taping all the way up to December in an week? That's about twenty or more shows they have to do.
This is looking more and more like the end, this is going to be the last batch. Once DA gives them the boot, is there a channel or station that will give them a shot considering they got kicked off a station that's basically the bottom of the barrel?

Nah, they'll just run them on youtube. No chance that any station throws them a bone now.

They better hope their website gets lots of hits because a third TV station is never coming,

Cancelled by one channel is bad enough, getting cancelled back to back years is impossible to recover from.

And getting cancelled by a station that is as close to bottom of the barrel without being public access?

The way that TNA tapes its TV, there's just no place for PPVs in the first place.

If this is truly the end for TNA I only have one question for the burial…
Half flush or full?

"Live" from Nigeria! With your special main event: A title unification match between The Great Power Uti and Super Angle(because you just know he'll get the belt back by then)! Tell me you wouldn't pay to see that masterpiece.

How will they get paid if they switch to Youtube though? Don't laugh people.

How will they get paid if they switch to Youtube though? Don't laugh people. Nowhere near enough to actually run a company off of, given that even a TV network deal isn't enough to keep them afloat. Figure, even the people who are making hundreds of thousands a year on Youtube--and there aren't a huge number of them--are doing so by putting out multiple videos a day that are getting hundreds of thousands to millions of views each. Even if they make a lot of daily Youtube content, and with their massive block tapings that isn't really viable, they won't be getting anywhere near enough views to keep the place afloat when you factor in the many costs associated with running a business, even if you're perpetually lowballing and late on paying everybody. Without ticket sales, their only revenue stream will be so pathetic that they'll be operating at even heavier losses from September onward, and won't actually survive long enough to make another taping date, unless Panda pumps money into it which at that point only confirms that the Carters are using the company in one way or another to commit fraud.
