Kevin Steen told the awesome story about a contestant who was supposed to be eliminated, I can't remember the guy's name, but the judges where Flair, Bruce, and Al Snow. The way it was scripted, Flair gave him the first no, then Bruce gave him a yes, he was gonna then cut a promo where he would state his case to Al, who was gonna give him a no. Well the guy cut an amazing promo where he talked about his dad who just passed away, the promo was so good that Flair changed his vote to a yes, and the guy won. Lol he went against the script. Alex Silva. So glad Flair gave him a job and they proceeded to do nothing with him when they could've given him a sympathetic character and made him matter. But it seems that unless you're missing a leg or lost friends in war than you're not going to have a sympathetic story. The funniest thing to me is his promo still sucked. I don't know what Flair heard that made him change his mind, but Silva's promo was garbage.

Hilarious and sad that wrestling's misuse of what an "independent contractor" is caused problems.

I wonder why they never smart Dixie up to the wrestling business, or maybe she was surrounded by yes men...f*** I just realized those yes men have no experience in the wrestling business. Gaburick was Kevin Dunn's gopher and Bob Ryder is a travel agent and a used to run a dirt sheet site, they never ran talent relations or booked.

Prichard was behind Claire Lynch. Worst signing TNA made.

Prichard was also behind the Summer of 2012 booking, was TNA under Gaburick at some point at that level?

Prichard was behind Claire Lynch. Worst signing TNA made. No, Christopher Daniels and Kazarian pitched the angle, which sounded a thousand times better than what it ended up being. Daniels said that at the beginning the girl was supposed to be Dixie's niece and really really hot, but apparently Dixie didn't wanted her to be prettier than her so they hired that "actress", secondly she vetoed that Lynch was her niece, and the final thing was that when they signed the "actress" they never told her in advance what the angle was gonna be about, she got fed up and left. I dont blame Pritchard for that debacle. Daniels came up with it but it got ruined after Dixie's meddling.

TNA is never gonna have a serious change as long as Dixie remains President of TNA, not even getting Heyman would save the company.

Yeah the worst part is that according to Kazarian and Daniels she tries to book stuff too. One time they were working in Arizona with Mexican American and she wanted them to be the racist heels just because they were there, at the time the state was having problems with a law, and Dixie wanted to exploit that, it didn't made sense to turn Bad Influence into racist.

That might explain why MVP used the n word, and the stupid Donald Trump angle.

And the actress' sole outing is as playing Olive Oyl on the Popeye The Sailor Ride at Universal Kingdom. They literally went next door and picked the first person they saw for it.

Even if TNA somehow manages to find another network to air them after DA gives them the boot next month (doubtful), its lifeline is only as long as Bob Carter is around, it's well stated than when he steps down as President of Panda and Todd takes control, he's pulling the plug on them.
