Bob has made it clear that he won't sell TNA to anyone unless his worthless little princess gets to stay in charge and still own it, and everyone else has made it clear that they won't touch it so long as Ditzy continues to be there.
She's worthless, worthless in every aspect, and he's enabled her for over 50 years and no one else in the family can even stand her whatsoever. Janice and Todd have made their feelings clear about how they feel about her and have sworn to pull the cord once Bob either croaks or steps down.
If TNA still wants to have a shimmer of hope of somehow living, she has to go. Someone who has an actual IQ of over 40 needs to run things.

Bar Rescue might make an exception and give them a visit. Just bring Gordon Ramsay sure it does not make any sense,but neither did Hotel Nightmare "Restaurant: Impossible" should take a stab at fixing TNA. Robert Irvine can randomly tear down a wall in the Impact Zone that Tom the builder doesn't want to touch, the one designer who looks like Eric Young can make a mural using only signed Bram contracts and Marc Summers will generally hover in the background. The only drawback is the booking of the Knockouts will remain exactly the same.

Gordon Ramsay commentating TNA would be a goldmine " YOU BOOKED THIS SHIT AND YOU CALL YOURSELF A PROFESSIONAL? $@%^$@%^ DID YOU EVEN PROOFREAD IT OR DID YOU JUST SEND THAT SHIT OUT THERE AND EXPECT YOUR VIEWERS TO TAKE IT WITH A !@#$%^$!%^!$ SMILE!"

I can't believe Dixie Carter has lived on this planet for 70 years and is STILL this dumb. I think that the corpse of the Dixie Carter that lived on this planet for 70 years would do a better job of running it.

So they learned absolutely nothing from the Toby Keith thing falling through.
One way or another Dixie's losing her company. She just needs to accept it and man up.

Dixie doesn't know how to run a business and TNA needs a huge overhaul (rebranding, more ways to generate revenue, new marketing, production, cheap places to tape frequently, etc). Investing in a company run by Dixie might as well amount to wiping your ass with your money.

That's good thinking on Madison and Cornfed's part. Just make sure Dixie throws in that pizza oven to sweeten the deal.

The only way TNA sees 2017 is without Dixie, she needs to accept that.

Why would anybody "invest" into this company when it's been proven to be a non profit. A business man would see that there is no return on the investment because had there been, Panda wouldn't finally given up. TNA is nothing unless Dixie is removed and the whole core of the company is overhauled. That means by Dixie, John, and Billy to start at the top. TNA is only going to be successful if it ran by a bunch of people who know wrestling and know how to promote it, I even go as for a a name change to rebrand it and get rid of the bad stink the TNA name has in the wrestling world. Some say why change something that it is established,and yes it is established but not in a good way. Dixie has no idea how to do any of those things and I don't see anything good she really brings to the table to make me want to have her around in any way if I was a potential investor. Honestly looking at the roster, is this the company you want to partner up with or overtake to run? The only good right now in buying the brand is the video library for the good matches they did have. The TV deals which as limited the US one is its a starting point. If it was me taking over, most of the roster wouldn't be there and I do everything I could to get Roode back. If I'm investing and that means I have money. I do whatever I can to sign true ready for TV talent, the more top of the ladder indies guys. People who can work and are not green as grass in the ring like Shera. Me though I would want it two years ago where I still had a chance to keep AJ and ext from leaving and rebuild and hell maybe save them from getting dumped from Spike. My thoughts: 1. Officially change the name from TNA to Impact Wrestling. Start fading out the TNA logo from tv, the belts being the last thing to get changed over-those are not cheap, after all. 2. Relocate the corporate headquarters to a state/city willing to offer tax incentives. They throw those things out like candy to be able to boast of "job creation," so might not be as hard as it sounds. I dare say, Atlanta; already offers a lot of tax breaks for movies and tv production, and there would be experienced production crew aplenty. 3. Trim the fat; Angle, The Hardy brothers, Abyss, Gail Kim, Mike Tenay, and Velvet Sky all go the way of the doe doe. Nothing against them at all, but at this stage they add little to no value to the tv product and their paychecks could be better used bringing in fresher talent or enhancing the pay of current stars to keep them around. Further, everyone is officially moved to a part time basis and are free to take other bookings on the side-with the one rule being that it doesn't interfere with their Impact Wrestling schedule and that they wont'be appearing on two different tv shows at the same time. 4. Try to talk to Universal about relocating to a studio from their park in California. Makes no sense to continue taping in Florida when NXT is a stones throw away. Better to relocate general operations to someplace where there is little in the way of indy competition so you won't be competing for attendance at your tv tapings. 5. Start trying to build relationships with other small feds so you can start doing talent exchanges and have a constant flow of fresh and new stars. Will never happen with WWE, and probably not with ROH, but might be possible to do so with Chikara, Lucha Underground, Shimmer, Shine, and some others. And, oh yeah, if you agree to a talent exchange-actually do it instead of pulling out at the last minute. 6. Start adding house shows to the schedule again, even if only a few at first. If you have to do them out of a high school gym, then that is what you do. Its all part of expanding the revenue base. But that is just me.

I can't believe Dixie Carter has lived on this planet for 70 years and is STILL this dumb. Growing up with a rich daddy that enabled her all of her life.
Hell Daddy bought her a wrestling company just because she asked him to.
Also when TNA was still worth something, Toby Keith tried to buy it, Bob told them that they would need to keep Dixie...
I that Bob Carter was the type of dad that bought Dixie and her friends booze and tried to be friends with them, kinda like Johnny Manziel's dad.
I don't know what it says when Toby Keith is the smartest businessman in the room...

He already wrote his resume like he was a wrestler. He'd fit right in. "Catered for Princess Diana's wedding. Uh uhhh, main course was... thawed mammoth. Yeah, yeah, that's a plausible rich person food...."

How much could TNA possibly be worth? Bischoff said WCW was worth nothing without the Turner TV timeslots. Vince reportedly bought it for less than $3 million and even though TNA has POP TV, I would have to imagine that's almost equivalent to having no TV at all. I would bet you can get a majority stake for less than a million.
