Impact returns to Orlando for next tapings

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

After running the last set of Impact Wrestling tapings in Canada, the next set of tapings will take place from Universal Studios in Orlando, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The tapings are currently scheduled for January 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th. This will tape Impact Wrestling through March 2018. There are plans for the March tapings to take place somewhere in Canada but not in Ottawa as it was hard to draw a crowd there. The Observer notes that it's believed Impact will hold more tapings in Canada because they are less expensive to hold there and the company is trying to do everything they can right now to trim the budget and not lose money.

Hooray for indoor plumbing again, also can any Canadians shed light on if Impact is actually advertising in Canada because you aren't drawing anybody without that

[OVO 40 hunched over like he 80]

Lol so they can't draw a crowd in Canada and their answer is having tourists enter without paying?

You know... The fact it only took one taping in Canada to change their minds says a lot.

And yet, they will still be headquartered in Canada.

They're going back to Canada in March but this is a suspect move

I'm pretty sure they are going to go back to Orlando to kiss ass like we still love you too but it's way too early in the process for that

Weren't they literally paying the crowd to show up in Canada? Those bored freeloading tourists don't look so bad anymore.

Correct, 50 bucks to stand there and miss your cue when to cheer. And yet they couldn't even get a hundred to do it

Hopefully this means Taya Valkyrie and her thickness will be back o Impact.

So this company is pretty much completely retooling its entire business strategy on a weekly basis by now.

I don't recall them saying they were stopping shows in America. They're heading to Montreal or Toronto in March (Meltzer)

They'll be back at an even smaller soundstage in Florida within a year

Called it in another thread. Feeling quite smug.

What's Impact doing in the Impact Zone?

I love this so much. How much of their roster did they cut for the sake of cheaping out? TNA is fumbling through bad decisions left and right and I can't get enough of it. "We're going to burn everything and move up to Canada where it's cheaper, oops we have no crowd let's use a casting agency to fill our audience out and then move back to Floria again which is as not Canada as you can get in the continental United States." You can't spin this as anything other than a mess.

My favorite part of TNA since The Final Deletion has been watching this son of a bitch burn like a dumpster fire

Imagine having to wait on a paycheck from this company.
