On a serious note-are they actually going to bother advertising these house shows?

Indies have their shows in high school gyms.
ROH even has shows at the Ted Reeves Arena. An Arena.
Sure makes that insistence that things are fine in TNA look pretty flimsy.

Not to go too off topic, but when did wrestling start occurring in schools? I don't mind small venues and thought Impact on the road looked good in smaller arenas. But I guess I dont agree that any pro wrestling should happen in schools. It probably is cheaper, but I think takes away from the product, live event or taping. I would take a run down building any day of the week. See Ecw and wccw. I don't mind a high school gym/auditorium as long as the show has good quality production values. Some professional looking camera work and editing goes a long way in shaking off the "bush league" aura.

WWF was doing high school shows in the 80s, mainly doing fundraisers, and a lot of times some of the "bigger" names appearing was "Quick Draw" Rick McGraw and Tiger Chung Lee.
Get ready, local high school, for the thrilling main event of Garrett Bischoff vs. Rob Terry.

I don't really see how camera work and editing comes into it when so far it's just house shows. Hopefully they don't start doing tapings at these venues. The high school WWF tapings are so depressing to watch, imo.

I don't have a problem with them doing shows at high school gyms. I'd even have less of a problem if they have to split the gym because the girls need to have volleyball practice.
Tazz: "WHOA! WHOA! WHOA! Here comes AJ Styles with the TNA Heavyweight Championship! Can you believe this Tenay?"
*Tenay blankly staring at other side of gymnasium*
AJ Styles: "Listen up Dixie. There can only be one TNA Heav...."
*AJ is hit in the back of the head with a volleyball*
JV Vollyball Team Captain: "Sorry sir. A little help?"
*Magnus throws the volleyball back to the other side of the gym*
AJ: "As I was saying, there's can only be one TNA Heav....."
*volleyball coach blows her whistle*
Coach: "Alright girls. Practice is over. Go get washed up."
Tazz: "Well it's a good thing that's over. Now we can go back and focus on the return of AJ Styles. Ain't that right Tenay?"
*Tenay has disappeared*

Dixie: Where the hell's Jeff? He was supposed to be in the ring 20 minutes ago! Serg: Last I saw him, he was in the men's restroom on the second floor with a bunch of dirty looking kids. Dixie: Isn't that where we're testing our new fog machine? Serg: We don't have a fog machine.

Not a big deal really. My high school's gym had a capacity of 1,000+ and it was a town of 2,500 people. They're probably cheap to book and hold about as many people as a small arena. Perception wise it might be bad, but hell, it's TNA.

Hell, WWE still holds house shows in the Westchester County Center and that place felt smaller then a gym the last time I was there for an event.
