I think this pessimism is wrong. Fact is TNA has been called dead before but miraculously survived. Just now my sources have told me that TNA is entertaining offers from G4, the DuMont network, the style network, and the Soap network.

So much promise during the 04-early 07 era. This is such a shame.

This is so sad and pathetic. I was never a person who thought TNA was on the verge of death, but after this, not even lasting half a year on their new network I think its game over. Even if they can find a new network it may be time to shut up shop due to embarrassment. Let the wrestlers go anywhere else. I highly doubt TNA can find a new network after 2 straight failures on Spike and DA. There might have been some interest after Spike dropped them since it is wrestling and maybe some network could've molded TNA into something profitable, but nobody's going to take a chance on a proven f***-up. I see Impact moving to web exclusive or just TNA dying. |

It's almost laughable how a guy that TNA did everything in their power to bury for years and years suddenly shows up in the WWE/NXT and is treated like a hero. This company had no idea what they were doing most of the time, even when they had the talent to at least become a decent alternative.
Jarrett's promotion is coming around at the right time as all/most of the TNA talent will be able to find work elsewhere. No big loss (TNA, that is).

Can't wait for the next NXT super show where Paul turns up both on NXT and Impact

No more TV means no more "We do this because WWE does this" TV production standards meaning more money to pay talent. |

I said it in the thread on the Bischoff lawsuit, like, it's over. I know TNA has had more false finishes then a Young Bucks match, but like, this here is quite the double whammy. I'm even wondering if TNA can continue through to September.

Hate to say it but it really just sounds like Mass Effect to me. The Reapers came in, wiped out a generation of people, civilization starts from square one again, without knowing the Reapers will come back and will have no idea how to stop them. |

They shouldn't give [Dave] any acknowledgment, that's what he wants
Despite what he and his followers say, Meltzer is irrelevant to the business, and I think deep down he knows this
Meltzer relies on the vocal minority, it would be a waste of time and energy to acknowledge them
lol Not even the hardcore WWE fans defend the company this much

If I could my Bender "this is quite a shock no it's not" GIF, it would be appropriate right now.
