Please, please let this be the end! I will have a massive celebration when it does and if the library ends up on the WWE Network it will be great news for everyone.

Honest to god I don't understand why the Carters don't just sell to Vince and be done with the whole thing. Just pack that shit up and go home. TNA is never going to be able to make enough money to justify the costs. Plus I really just want WWE to get the tape library and some of the more interesting talents to fill out the roster. There's enough people on the roster that are good enough to really help out on Raw, Smackdown, and NXT. Like nothing against TNA... It was really good once upon a time. But it's just not viable anymore. This all of this What I would give for talents like Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett, DJZ, Mark Andrews, EC3 etc to get chances |

Great move by Cody Rhodes to sign (even if its a one night only deal) a deal with TNA

It will come down to Corgan:"sell me your company or there's no Bound For Glory".
I hope Corgan is not 2001 Bischoff in this.

You know what's amazing? We've been discussing TNA's financial issues since 2010. No, that's not a typo. I said 2010. See for yourself. officialfan.proboards.com/thread/332347I really thought we were on to something when I discovered that information on Tennessee's business website last month. But nope, TNA received yet another stay of execution. I wish SOMETHING definitive would happen; it seems like this keeps dragging on with no end in sight. |

Much ado about nothing I think. Corgan will front the money for BFG and the tapings to prolong the time needed to make the deal official.

I want them to survive but have to adopt local indy tactics to stay afloat. Booking events in armories and high school gyms,Josh with a Boombox connected to the PA with 3 CD's for all the themes and having random out of shape local wrestlers to fill in the roster. With shows headlined by TNA World Champion and 3rd rate Nature Boy, Paul Lee. I have nothing to add so here's Nature Boy Paul Lee heckling comic and then kneeing him in the balls. |

So...in what feels like under three months, TNA is back at the "Continue?" screen. This. Company.  I was gonna use the Street Fighter continue theme but this really works. So who has quarters? |

50 people in the tna board, wonder what's hap.... Oh Tna is dead again.
Dunno how but I have a feeling that it will live to fight another day. At this point I think it's gods favourite promotion, it's the only logical explanation.

Bob and Janice have already washed their hands of TNA, if I'm remembering right. So it's - Dixie, Billy, Aroluxe, Fight Network (library?), Zoidberg, and homeless dude out front the Warehouse. But Dean Ambrose is in WWE I want Ambrose to wake up hungover, and discover he bought TNA. Hijinxs ensues. |

But it's just not viable anymore. This all of this What I would give for talents like Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett, DJZ, Mark Andrews, EC3 etc to get chances Looking over the roster, and I'd totally grab EC3, Eli Drake, Eddie Edwards, Drew Galloway, and Moose for the main roster right now, DJZ, Trevor Lee, Mark Andrews, and Rockstar Spud for the Cruiserweights, and then snatch up Jessie as an NXT project. The Knockouts Division isn't exactly brimming with talent right now, but Jade and Sienna would be solid additions, no doubt. Then I'd work on signing Lashley as long as his demands aren't ridiculous, and get Matt and Jeff if we could come to some agreement of letting them do some of their wacky stuff. I'd at least secure some of those guys... Maybe not all because you do risk having an inflated roster with a lot of guys doing nothing. That and the tape library would be a great deal for WWE. I mean this is certainly a dream scenario and likely isn't happening, but it'd be great if it did. |
