Just checked online for the cheapest flights that I could find. A trip from Miami International to Mumbai will run you over $800. Its round-trip, but still, this is such a stupid idea.

Knowing how Dixie Carter does not like reading contracts, she more than likely accidently sold the company including the wrestlers when she signed the contract for the India tour.

If they're going to do that, why did they waste all that money on Ring ka king, then only do one season of it? Yeah if Ring Ka King didn't drew enough money with even bigger names (Steiner and Jarrett), why does Dixie think they're gonna draw enough to brake even with EC3 and Davey Richards and all them Jabronis

Seriously this is going to kill the company
Why do you think WWE with all their resources and money only goes on international tours once a year? The most being twice in Europe. Because its damn expensive to do so.
TNA doesn't even have a fraction of the resources WWE has and this is going to flat out kill them.

Yeah no way Angle or Hardy go to this bullshit tour. Wonder how the Indian fans are gonna react to the unknown Jabronis, er I mean the tna "superstars", damn Tyrus is gonna be the more famous wrestler there. I'm calling it right now, Shera breaks EC3's streak. They'll still love it. India is an incredibly wrestling starved country. Have we gotten so jaded that we can't just say, "You know what? Good for TNA!" What? We have? Okay, carry on then.

So....when DA cancels Impact, can we all meet at the same time and watch Impact from India on the YouTube together? Because, like, I'll miss all of you if we don't.

So guessing then Shera wins the gauntlet, EC3 retains over Drew, and then Khoya beats him for the belt in India.
God, please. I want that so hard.

Yeah they may love it, but if there was any money to be made for a wrestling promotion in India, Ring Ka King would still be around, they did tremendous ratings, but Ring Ka King ain't around anymore. Dixie should learn from her past mistakes, but she is Dixie Carter, she doesn't learn from past mistakes.

Dixie Carter doesn't give half a shit about India, she is only making this happen because she lost everything else. This isn't an expansion to India, this isn't tapping an untouched market, it is her throwing shit at the wall and praying something sticks long enough for her to plot an escape.

By TNA standards, that IS "good for TNA". I don't agree with the possibility of making Shera World Heavyweight Champion (I believe that he's an untalented piece of trash and that it's a crime that he's getting TV time and exposure through a nationally Televised wrestling promotion, even if that promotion IS TNA, while better talents rot in obscurity), but every thing else doesn't seem so bad. Hopefully the shit Dixie throws at the wall DOES stick long enough for TNA to regroup and restructure itself.

Hard to get excited about this news because in trademark TNA fashion, it is going to fail like all of the numerous things that suppose to save TNA and/or take them to the next level.

There's a definite possibility some of the people who come there may never leave India. I can see them selling Rockstar Spud and Manik just to escape India. Well, Ricardo's in India training students at Khali's school, maybe he could pull the save and rescue Spud from this fate.

I AM FROM ALSO INDIA. Seriously, do they really think this is brilliant? Does India actually care about TNA (not of the Bollywood variety)? Won't their money go down the drain from such a long trip to that country and back? What, no other country was willing to give them a chance? If so, that's amusing. It's like they know they don't want to deal with their hijinks.

Synopsis: watch as a bunch of bumbling bumblef***s prop up the corpse of TNA wrestling and pretend that it's still alive in order to escape reality and creditors.
