Eric the Midget of Howard Stern Says He Wants to Buy TNA

[thegame415]

Eric said he wants to purchase TNA Wrestling. Johnny said he wants him to raise the money. Howard asked why not. He said Eric wants to get in and help the company. Howard said Eric would be a minority owner. Johnny said he wants to run it. Johnny said he could make a profit for the people who invest. He said he wants to give a 20 percent discount to the investors on food and drinks.

Howard asked what the TNA Wrestling thing would cost. Eric said he read that they want to sell 70 percent of the company. Robin asked how the investors are supposed to know how much it is. Howard said it's Johnny's job to figure out how much that will be. Howard said if they have Eric as the head of the company then they may blossom into a billion dollar company. Johnny said if they can get Jeff and Eric in the ring together they may have something.

Howard asked Eric if he realizes that he has no experience running anything and he couldn't run this company. Eric said he could be there to do some stuff for the company. Howard said Eric was a travel agent for a while. Eric said he did that for about a year. Howard said just imagine what that sounded like. Howard did his impression of Eric booking someone on a flight. Howard asked if he had any regular customers.

He said he wants to set up a dial-a-date with Robin and the wrestlers.

Howard said he has to imagine what would happen if he bought the company. He asked what his first actions would be if it happened tomorrow. Eric said he would want a stronger female division so he'd hire more females. Howard said he'd have to audition them to see how good they are at wrestling.

I'm sure Howard could loan him the $45.

[FinalGwen]

And he's still not the least credible Eric in the running.

[Andrew is Good]

I'm sorry, anyone could run TNA better then it's being run now, so I am for this, though it could just be f***ing around.

Thank goodness Bischoff's gone - he would have probably jumped all over this nonesense as a "controversy = cash" kind of moment.

[Steveweiser]

Is he one of the three groups who want to buy TNA, as mentioned by Court Bauer today?

[Perd]

If he flies with balloons, every show, TNA will put WWE out of business.

My original answer may have gotten me banned so I will say that I hope someone else gets a chance to bid on TNA

See on one hand, TNA getting this attention on Howard Stern would be a good thing, on the other hand, its Eric the actor/midget and his segments are always meant to make hm seem like a self important douche who has no concept of his actual station in life( a G list celebrity only known for his association with Stern). This makes TNA look foolish and worse than Busch league to listeners who couldn't care less about TNA wrestling. Quite in fact Stern listeners do not like Eric BC he pisses Stern off, Howard has him on to make fun of him. None of that equals dollars for TNA. This is one of those times that bad press is still bad press and just BC your company is being mentioned on a wide and divergent audience, does not mean that it is a good rub. The context by which the TNA brand name was used, is not a favorable one and nobody is going to rush out and buy tickets because of this.

I wonder what the change in the ratings would be? I'm guessing 0.0 .

Howard said he has to imagine what would happen if he bought the company. He asked what his first actions would be if it happened tomorrow. Eric said he would want a stronger female division so he'd hire more females.

He's already a better booker than Vince Russo, Eric Bischoff and Dixie Carter.

It would a step in the right direction. A small step because he's a small person, but still...
