TNA TV Schedule news

From PWInsider:

TNA management held a meeting for talent this afternoon in Salt Lake City, Utah, informing them that the current run of on the road Impact tapings would be ending after the next taping in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Talent were told they would be working Orlando, Florida tapings on 11/21-11/23 and that dates were also being locked in for December tapings also in Orlando.

While TNA will be returning to Universal Studios, the word we are hearing is that it will not be the same Soundstage that housed the Impact Zone, but a different, smaller space.

As we hear more, we'll update.

It's kinda hard *not* to see this as the company being im massive trouble

I wouldn't worry until Dixie tells the wrestlers that she's going to L.A. to negotiate some TV deals and stars in "Rollerball 2: Balls Deep"

Then she ends up on Raw as a commentator after Lawler quits again?

It's the XWF all over again.

Good, they aren't going with 6 tapings at once like originally thought.

I really hope her co-stars aren't the Hogans.

The plan is apparently for four shows to be taped over three days each time, one on the first day, one and a half on the second day, and one and a half on the third day. So the first one would be like this...

November 21st: Live to tape that evening
November 22nd: November 28th and half of December 5th
November 23rd: Half of December 5th and December 12th

Think they'll need taping weekends for December and January for them to have enough to get them to the UK tour shows.

I don't want to be morbid but the way things are going I might need to get myself to one of these Impact shows when they come to the UK in 2014 because it might be my last chance to see them .

[The Masked Heel WAS WRONG]

Coming to Universal Studios' janitor's closet...it's TNA IMPACT!

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

So, I get to be there live for the last taping of this little experiment. Interesting...

They could make it a selling point. A couple years ago, it was sold as Sting's returns to the UK. Next, Sting's last ride and the return of Hulk Hogan. Next the return of Jeff Hardy Sting. Now come see TNA live before it becomes a tribute show.

AJ Styles vs Bobby Roode chicken on a pole match!

I guess TNA is going to take their talents to South Beach again

Honestly, I think what TNA needs to do is gather all their data from the last 2-3 years, maybe 5, house shows, PPVs that were on the road, TNA Impacts that were on the road and figure out what their top 10-15 markets are.

From there, run the house show loop, set up your pay per views that will be on the road and maybe do Impact tapings on the road every 3 months. This company has been around 10-11 years, they should have where they draw and where they don't draw by now. It's common sense. Returning to Universal Studios isn't bush league, it's smart on their part especially if they are bleeding money. Hell, WWE's best show is held at Full Sail University. I think this is TNA's way of regrouping and getting everything in order. But they need to stop running in markets where they only draw 300 to 400 fans. It's embarrassing.

To make things worse for TNA, WWE will be taping their next set of NXT TV the same day according to PWInsider

Orlando isn't their town anymore. Full Sail Arena is like the Impact Zone before TNA gave the infamous "You are cast members" speech. Full of energy and into the show. TNA might get back some of the IZ loyalists but most of them moved on.
