Just saw this via the nL Twitter account. Looks like TNA have some interesting stuff set up, or they've bought ring aprons from Wrestlecircus.

There's some Twitch streams that could easily make Impact better.
I'd pay to see Justin Wong or Tasty Steve on the show.

Twitch is what happens to James Storm when he sees Bobby Roode on Smackdown.

Twitch is an interesting option, curious how that'll work out.

So that's what Borash was talking about when he announced something significant happening with the digital content in 2018.

did the 6 sided ring get repossessed for non-payment? both it and the ring guy had an unfortunate encounter with a wild budget cutter.

It makes sense, it's a free platform for them to broadcast on, it's free, every indy is looking to Twitch to stream their events (and TNA is nothing more than an indy now, let's not fool ourselves), it's free, they can hit people up for money through subscriptions so they can get emotes of, christ, I don't know, Kongo Kong's face and EC3's bacne, it's free, and it's free.
Now, if this is an actual Twitch sponsorship and they're paying TNA, then LOL they've lost their damn minds.
I'll take Omega playing SFV on his stream over this every day.

Wait, I thought Twitch was for if I wanted to stream me sucking at Call of Duty or shit like that? they've started expanding their programming. Rifftrax has a channel that just plays a bunch of their random movies all day. Shout factory has done MST3k and a few other show marathons. there's a BobRoss channel. I know there's a sweet old lady that makes paintings on the service. Dungeons and Dragons host live stream playthroughs of their campaigns other independent promotions were putting their shows on Twitch as well. but there are also things like me being terrible at video games on it

WrestleCircus and House of Hardcore are official sponsors and Defiant Wrestling broadcasts their Loaded shows on there before they go on YouTube. I mean, it makes sense as a side revenue stream since they make nothing on TV money and a good way to rebuild an audience.

Smart move by Impact. Their international deals are limited to non-existent now, if I'm not mistaken, and they have piss poor coverage in the US. And quite frankly, something tells me there is a much bigger cross-over audience between Impact Wrestling and Twitch's demo vs Impact Wrestling and POP TV's demo

I kinda hope they try for a live broadcast tonight, they go against the Fire Pro Update on their official Twitch channel ( www.twitch.tv/spike_chunsoft 7PM PST coughcough) and just get trounced in viewership.

The best thing TNA could do is to have DrDisRespect as their onair authority figure when he gets back from his sabbatical.

The most TNA possible thing could be an unannounced, no-press-release surprise stream tonight while Awesome Games Done Quick is going on. That would be peak TNA.

Seems appropriate, given that TNA is the Diddler Cup of pro wrestling.
