Ok how can Dixie still not admit defeat at this point? It's over sweetheart have some dignity. DA won't resign you in January. They just released a memo where they pretty much said that tna is advertisement poison. This is it. No other country, except Japan and Puerto Rico, is gonna support a wrestling company. Ring Ka King did big ratings but they never got a second season. Pro wrestling is advertisement poison for reasons that have nothing to do with any one promotion. Wrestling fans are percieved to be low income. Other sports such as basketball and football the commercials are for expensive cars and electronics. WWE commercials it's all KFC and Mountain Dew. Bit outdated IMO a lot of adult wrestling fans are otakus with lots of disposable income they spend on their hobbies.

Deja Vu. This time next year, TNA will be cancelled by the POP Network and claim they have decided that the only way for TNA to grow is going on METV between Mayberry RFD and The Mary Tyler Moore Show on Sunday nights. MeTV has more standards than that, how dare you.

This is going to become a yearly thing of them finding a smaller and smaller network and getting kicked off by September until they reach YouTube and YouTube kicks them off after a couple of weeks.
Dixie still claims they're growing.

BTW, in the article, when she said they were in "discussions through 2016", did she mean she was in discussions with other networks, or with DA? I have to assume neither, and they're in discussions with each other how to keep the show going.

How?! How did they even get to survive on DA till January? This is a win for them considering it is 2015 TNA Dixie sold her soul to the Canadian Devil.

While I'll wait til it finally, FINALLY happens...
Earl Hebner really could be the last Hall of Famer.
Not JJ. Not Hardy, Sting or the Dudleys Not Styles or Joe. Not Beer Money. Not even Kurt Angle.
Please have Shera as the last champ...

Also it's cross cultural, I live in Japan and whenever you see a NJPW star advertising something it's cup ramen, pachinko or coffee in a can, all items beloved by blue collar workers.

Sure it'll rebound some next week, but you've got to enjoy the cosmic coincidence in Impact pulling such a lousy rating as this news comes out.

I'm still just laughing at this image I've conjured up in my mind:
Dixie: Sug, TNA would like to remain on Destination America for a long time. DA: Well you see, your programming is just too low brow for our target audience. We are expanding upwards into a more vibrant and intelligent demographic base. Dixie: I've been wanting to get into more serious TV! I have all sorts of good ideas! DA: Too late, you are being replaced with Squatched! , a prank show from the makers of Jackass.
