I don't trust JR to know shit about wrestling that is new and even then I'm unsure he pays enough attention to have it right. Maybe Cowboy Bill Watts is in super secret negotiations to buy the rest of TNA so that's how he knows. "No more top rope moves!" "But what about the X-Division?" "Because shut up. NOW LET'S HOOK EM UP!"

More reports starting to swirl- WWE buying the TNA library is virtually a done deal. Billy Corgan buying TNA and became the majority owner, with plans to rebrand TNA.
If this is the case...Corgan actually did the smartest decision possible as his first move. Rebranding it to get the stench of TNA off the promotion was necessary- but if this is the case, it'd seem to look like "Corgan bought TNA, then sold the video library to WWE to pay off their outstanding debts"- which is actually a SMART decision, much less "smart for TNA".

If they rebrand, I'd sell everything before the Impact Wrestling rebrand.

I listened to this, JR just said he's aware of the rumors going around. So this is basically just the talks that were going on we knew about but nothing cncrete and probably not happening then I wouldn't say "probably not", there's a ton of rumors flying around right now. JR just trying to set it up so he can say "told you so" later if something does happen.

Half of what I made out was pertaining to the negotiations,and the rest was something about a new line of Skittles flavored BBQ sauce he was working on. A lot of BAH GAWDs mixed in there too.

How TNA would it be if they couldn't even access their own video library since they couldn't afford to license it from WWE? Then again, might wait for more sources on this one. TNA might have to use hand puppets. Can TNA afford hand puppets? I'd be hoping for hand-drawn renderings like you see of courtrooms in places they don't allow cameras:

So if this is all true and happens...
Seriously, did all the major promotions and indies have a meeting on January 1st and go "Hey, 2015 was kind of dull, let's make the next year super interesting" and all involved decide to overcompensate enough for a decade?

It was actually a major conference, also attended by the Committee for Killing Celebrities and the National Association for the Advancement of Election News Ratings.

I really hope this is all true. Easily the best move on the board for all parties involved.
