Last I heard DA has been saying they are done with wrestling by the end of the year.

Well, at least they have until January, I suppose.
At last, we've reached the end. More or less anyway, I'm sure TNA will keep pitifully limping forward in irrelevancy for like six months or so after that. Then they'll repeatedly insist, "Big news, coming soon!" over and over until finally selling it to WWE.

Maybe they'll change the Halloween tour to TV tapings?
And now Angle leaving in January makes even more sense, heh.

Honestly, I'm more surprised about ROH. I figured their budget would be lower, and would attract enough viewers.

DA is replacing Impact with a series hosted by Marcus Bagwell & Scotty Riggs?? *re-reads* Oh, American TALES. My bad. Maybe they are doing a live action DuckTales with Marcus Bagwell, Scotty Riggs, and Judy Bagwell?

Oh man, if you thought those last lot of tapings were wacky as hell, hold on to your hats for the next ones, when they KNOW they're out the door soon. I cannot wait to see all the babyfaces squashing Bigfoot.

You don't say? who could possibly see this coming ... This happens right around the time Dixie stands triumphant on the show. What a fool she is. TNA Wrestling: coming to a backyard near you.

Congratulations. They get to crawl painfully along the ground for a few months longer and pretend it's a triumph. I can practically hear the "Meltzer sucks, he hates TNA" posts being typed as I speak. On the bright side, this does mean we have a chance to actually get TNA Heavyweight Champion Mahabali Shera.

AMERICAN TALES AMERICAN TALES AMERICAN TALES AMERICAN TALES This better be the theme for the show. Anyways, yadda yadda yadda, Dixie probably went and begged them to give them until January so they could say they at least didn't get canceled twice in a year. And as Excellence already pointed out, if you thought the last round of tapings were crazy, you ain't seen nothing yet. I think they're gonna go Full Dixie by the end. Hell, Dix might as well hire Russo to finish everything off with a nice, shitty bow on top.

I get the feeling the weird early stuff from the tapings makes sense now, because they could now run potentially to Genesis. If they actually book the matches mentioned in the spoiler list for that though, that's the true end times.

Ok how can Dixie still not admit defeat at this point? It's over sweetheart have some dignity. DA won't resign you in January. They just released a memo where they pretty much said that tna is advertisement poison. This is it. No other country, except Japan and Puerto Rico, is gonna support a wrestling company. Ring Ka King did big ratings but they never got a second season. Pro wrestling is advertisement poison for reasons that have nothing to do with any one promotion.

So essentially TNA are in the exact same spot they were last year, but with A LOT less bargaining power and resources. Great job Dixie!

If she had any dignity, she would have walked away after Spike told them to go away. TNA's creditors will eat TNA alive by April 2016. Without TV, there is no reason for TNA's debt holders to keep giving loans to Ditzy's "Cash-flow Positive" company.

Wait, weren't they absolutely dead and off the air by September, this time for realsies? I'll believe TNA are cancelled when discovery are showing 'Shark Lies with Honey Booboo' in it's time slot.
