TNA's in a position like it never been in before.
The question with the changes coming what should they do?
What will be benefit them more? TNA needs to get people into their show. Can they do that with mat classics? Hence Wolfe/Angle and Joe/Styles/Daniels will that be enough? Or do they go with gimmick based wrestlers like WWE has? Like Cena, Taker, MVP, Miz, Morrison, Finley, and Drew. TNA has improved their show recently but the ratings haven't improved.
You guys have great ideas on this board. What direction would you go in?

What I said in another thread is keep the shows at the level they are at now quality wise to draw hardcore fans back. We know there is at least enough for them to draw a 2.0 based off of them. With that, advertise the hell out of the show, not just Hogan, Foley, Nash and, Angle but, Joe, Styles, Wolf, Daniels, Pope, Morgan and the young guys. Spike TV has the entire Viacom family behind it, use it. Throw some ads on MTV, during Strikeforce and get your guys on those shows. If you do this and people find out about you and the word of mouth of wrestling fans supports you, you will grow.
WCW has shown that a great wrestling product can succeed as long as someone supports it and pushes it, so there is no need to go into sports entertainment overload.

Promote, promote, promote would be the single best move. There are improvements they can make across the board but if people don't know, people don't show.

Yeah, advertising and promotion is what they need now more than anything else.
You could have the greatest show in the world, but if nobody knows about it, you won't draw, period.
Keep up the quality of the shows like they've been recently, and people who start watching will get drawn in. My little brother doesn't really enjoy wrestling much, but he watched Turning Point with me and, while he's not about to become a rabid Impact viewer, he definitely enjoyed it and now at least has some level of interest in the product.
So don't diminish the wrestling quality or storyline quality, but PROMOTE THE DAMN THING.

I dont want to see TNA go a WWE route. I hated when WCW began doing that and it made me stop watching. If I have to choose between WWE or a badly done poor mans version of WWE, I will just watch WWE.
