I wonder if her father, her parents, knows how Dixie has conducted business or maybe they showed her how? It is on a whole another level of deviousness and I don't think she learned that at business school.
And I wonder what happened during that diner with Sting.

And considering-- the way I understood it-- that Anthem worked with Dixie to buy out from under Corgan, I don't think they're much better than her even if they do have control.

Anthem was a company that needed TNA for their content for their network. They really needed TNA. They were ready to step in and get the company. Corgan for them was just something that needed to go away so their business venture with TNA would continue. They were not the 14 years lying and manipulative backstabbing person that conned everybody from the Jarretts to Angle to Sting to Hogan, etc...They were outside all of this. Cause if they had been trying to control TNA behind the scene for long, they would have been fronting the money from the June tapping and on. They only showed up to pay the bills for BFG at the last minute. Sure it wasn't fair what happened to Billy but for them, they needed that TNA content and it's only business. It's TNA and Dixie that had that fight, not them. Even Billy said this, he has no issues with Anthem.

Alright, that makes sense. I was sick during the trial and its aftermath so some of the details didn't stick with me. Thanks.

She automatically learnt to betray and trick others, just by being near Sting.

In spite of her degree in marketing, Dixie has proved to be thoroughly incompetent at a wrestling company. An energy conglomerate requires a lot more business awareness & field understanding than a rudimentary form of entertainment. The reason why she's not a part of Panda Energy, to use your own words, is just business. Maintaining profit is difficult but its easy to blow it, & the millions this company lost would be a better outcome than the billions she'd lose if she was in charge of the energy concerns. You seem to keep siding with Dixie as this Machiavellian genius when the rest of us see her as a flaming dunderpate. Again, her involvement in this industry is a negative.

I don't think she's a genius at handling a wrestling promotion but she might be one at backstabbing and surviving despite screwing up. Like Corgan said, she might be the best worker of them all, she survived the Jarretts, Hogan, Bischoff, etc...only it's working people for less and less money. She was pimping the Anniversary of her action figure/doll when her company was going down. It's Emperor Nero-esque.

Yeah, I just don't see Anthem as this force for good that's going to clean up TNA and do right by everybody. They've already shown a willingness to get down in the mud with Dixie, for one thing.

We've seen this before, where it looked like she was leaving only for it to be revealed that she had lied and swindled people

If she's really gone, I am going to give TNA another chance under new ownership.
This seems too good to be true though.

I refuse to believe this until it is announced to be true. We've been hoodwinked by TNA too many times this year

Johnson's saying she has no real power...but it sure sounds to me like she's going to get paid to do nothing now.
That doesn't sound like a win to me. These a-holes are never going to get it.

Man, how appropriate would 2016 end for TNA that after hounding out someone out from taking over TNA to possibly throw her out that the new owners Dixie Carter preferred and gotten instead throw her out?
We'd have to redefine the word Irony to add "Dixie Carter" as a definition.

Based on how things since they came into the picture have gone, Anthem really doesn't seem any better than Dixie is.
