It was later confirmed that Spike TV had told Dixie directly that Russo was not to be brought back under ANY circumstances, yet she did it anyway and lied about it.
Not only did Dixie lie to everyone about bringing Russo back, she was determined to lie about being canceled, as she reportedly told everyone that TNA was voluntarily leaving Spike TV due to lack of promotion.
In a scumbag move, those in the TNA office reportedly told indie promoters to wait until Monday to book TNA talent, as "they'd likely be cheaper" then.

lol

man what a scumbag

why Russo? What is so damn important about him that you had to have him? I don't get it.

 

[El Pescado]

I snort laughed at work so loud and now people are looking at me.

Drew returned home to ICW last night and the crowd went suitably nuts;

Wow that's a really tidy, clean and well presented setup they have! I need to catch more ICW.

If that's true, that's a pure bush league, scumbag move. Now I'm glad she's out of business and if her father had any sense he'd leave her out of the will.

 

[Xater]

Just checked the Observer Devitt news:

Devitt, Kevin Steen, Kenta Kobayashi and Willie Mack are among those scheduled to start with WWE this summer.

How did I miss that they signed Steen? Fuck can we get those guys asap on NXT? I wanna see what that show turns into when they actually use these guys.

 

[Kornflayx]

Wow that's a really tidy, clean and well presented setup they have! I need to catch more ICW.

Man, Drew is such a great talent. He was awesome in that Elimination Chamber Match.
Should have kept him and Heath together and pushed them in the tag division.

They haven't officially signed Steen, but he's as signed as Kenta and Devitt were before they were announced.

Its been a running joke for awhile but I wonder if Daddy Carter might sweep in and help keep TNA afloat with an infusion of cash just so he can keep Dixie as far away from Panda as possible.

Whoever has said in the past that Dixie knew shit about being a wrestling promoter, you sirs, were dead wrong.

Carny move if I ever saw one.

 

[Entropia]

For the time that Devitt and KENTA will be in NXT, can we all agree that NXT will be a far superior wrestling show than RAW and Smackdown?

I'm actually pretty excited once those guys start working.

Curious to see what happens with the main roster. A lot of things that they could be doing. Hopefully storyline writing gets a bit more panned out. Like the Xavier/Big E/Kofi thing...

 

[Heel]

Willie Mack will be fast tracked to the main roster as The New Nation's high flyer. It was written in the stars, if ya weil.

 

[avengers23]

I'm guessing Kenny King regrets burning the bridge with ROH.

For the time that Devitt and KENTA will be in NXT, can we all agree that NXT will be a far superior wrestling show than RAW and Smackdown?

I remember thinking, "Oh, they signed Rebecca Knox. They can't possibly screw that up after the work NXT did with Paige, Summer Rae, Emma, and even Charlotte."

*cue Becky Lynch and her jigs

 

[Zach]

Hey, guys. Suggest a Prince Devitt match for me to watch at work.

Two caveats: 1) YouTube only and 2) I won't have the sound on.

Thanks!

He looked totally amazing in that clip Boots shared.

I'm in on this one. Mack vs Rusev

WOW. That's just fucked up. I'm glad to see TNA going out of business then. I used to love TNA back in the days when they had good wrestling and weren't WWE lite. Then they screwed over all their talent and listened to the idiots. Now apparently Dixie and the office staff are now pieces of shit it seems.

@TNADixie

Negotiations with @SpikeTV are ongoing. Stay tuned and be sure to tune in this Thursday night for Ultimate X on #ImpactOnSpike!!

[dream]

I just remembered that back when TNA first started (and I legit paid $9.99 for the weekly PPVs), I had a friend who had a hacked DirecTV card that would let him get all PPVs for free. He's dead of a massive drug overdose now, but I still have copies of some of these shows on a hard drive. Would anyone watch them if I found somewhere to upload them to?

 

[lovely ladies]

What will happen to Mike Tenay?

Lying to the end it seems. How pathetic.

I could see Devitt not even being on MXT tv but just adjusting to the style for a few months at the Center.

I expect Wrasslegaf to inspire confidence in doing what's right.

Anything can happen in this bizness!

 

[Lambda Pie]

what a fuckin carny business.

 

[Perspicacity]

My fingers are crossed, Sunny, but at this point Adam Rose will be lucky to participate in a dark match with a local tryout.

Don't worry, he'll still have a segment shilling malt liquor.

 

[Zach]

Is anyone actually impressed by Low Ki's tough guy look? He just seems like a try-hard to me. I mean, he'll probably be impressive in this match, but the guy's mean-muggin' is just silly.

 

[¡HarlequinPanic!]

I would watch those tna ppvs but only if I had a no haunt guarantee.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Destination X Still happening on Thursday right? I was/is looking forward to the funny Matt Hardy gifs.

 

[BronsonLee]

How the hell does that happen?

Sunny's a male rat ob-*is speared through window*

I felt that 'tough guy' persona he had was pretty corny. I feel he's a wonderful wrestler though.

I wonder if Samoa Joe final impact he leaves like this in honor of one of his top moments on TNA:

I'd like to think that the final few shows will just be balls to the wall amazing wrestling.

I'm still legit shook. How's my buddy Alucard doing? We will be fine brother. Keep believing.

Legit best stuff they did, along with some other Samoa Joe things long ago. LONG ago. And the X Division once upon a time. And Gail Kim vs Awesome Kong.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

I can't wait for the terribly unfunny botchedspot comic that will come from all this

 

[jmdajr]

I bet the WWE Docomuntery. "The existence and Fall of TNA" is worth more than the entire TNA library.

 

[Gorillaz]

TNA never was mentioned on air by WWE have they?

That might be actually worse then shit talking them on air brehs

 

[JavyOO7]

Favorite TNA memory? Joe vs Angle in the Cage at Lockdown. The MMA-like fight. Would have been interesting to see if there was the creative will to take their company in that direction. Alas...

 

[Patryn]

.

If she is trying to get another TV deal, the last thing she needs is the other party knowing that Spike has dropped them.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

The closest was that godawful Kaval rap and those TNA chants during the Trump V Rosie match

 

[Xater]

There will probably also come out lots of interesting stories after TNA is done.

I would want that, too. But, Dixie would try to screw it up somehow.
