Those shows are going to be very telling of how TNA is doing right now.
Yeah, from the beginning of this thing i said Hechicero is a lock and he does so many things good. Big luchadors are so fun to watch
I think he also said ECW never lost anywhere near the amount of money TNA did. Like not even close. It was all in the Steve Austin Podcast.

There's very little TNA can do with the roster available - even talented guys like Aries and Roode have been tainted by years of TNA idiocy. They're fucked, basically. Hurry up and exprire so another promotion can fill the vacuum.
Austin Aries was their last chance to have a legit star I think, and they blew it big time.
TNA has a roster full of Kofi Kingstons. It's some dire shit.

No, he thought he could turn the company successful. His end game was wanting to turn the company public within 5 years and get stock options. His big money feud the first year was going to be Daniel Bryan vs Kurt Angle.
Pretty much, Tickets were $12 and I couldn't even be bothered to go to Slammiversary. The company is horrible right now. They need good road agents to put together good matches and give the matches that need time more time. Wasn't the ladder match from Slammiversary only 6-9 minutes? Why didn't this go 20 so they could put on an incredible match? Match layouts and fucked finishes have ruined the company to where no matches mean anything.
Not even ROH? But what about Maria?

Dreamer is a road agent for the company again, which is bad, because I've heard he is horrible in the role. He called out Dixie on his house of hardcore indy show, because apparently she pulled Bully from the show. It's about as inside of an angle that you can get that noone that watches will know about. I assume he is going to bring some of the wrestlers from his promotion with him. I'll try to watch tonight, because atleast it's live. I try to catch the first show live then ignore the month of tapings.

Sasha Banks, Tyler Breeze, and the Ascension. I'm tuning in to NXT tonight!
When they do, I bet Primo and Nattie will do wonders for UFC.
For the Thursday show 6/26 show, a lot of the floor is gone but most of the balcony and stage area remains.
You can still get ringside for the tapings in the first week of August.

Nasty Boys, Terry Funk, and Sandman were on their last show. I guess they could bring Eddie Kingston, Homicide, Chris Hero, and Carlito.

Wait, 2 Cold Scorpio was in that promotion? Fuck, I hope they do take over TNA now.
Please, those guys aren't leaving WWE's truck loads of money for ROH's rolls of quarters. Also, Ambrose was never in ROH.

They don't but its not the fault of the talent. Most people aren't shitting on Eric Young because he's a bad wrestler, there was just no real character progression to get him from comedy act to World Champion.
When you get to TNA you get given a character and a place on the card and they really don't change either. Guys get handed the belt but they almost never have a long term chase for it. Roode did but they stalled it. Storm had a chase for his second championship and grudge match but they changed plans 3 months from Bound for Glory. Aries had a ton of momentum but they never cemented his place in the company by allowing him to defend it.
TNA's largest problem is that they start something interesting with the younger guys but they keep falling back on ex-WWE talent. It makes all of their wrestlers look like c+ players when old dudes and midcarders are consistently booked to be of a higher caliber than them.
Nope you can check up on it on ticketmaster. Friday has sold the best while wed and Thursday they has a lot of seats in the Balcony and stage areas.

Jarrett's promotion could have a good chance of getting Spike, but the big question is why would Spike choose an unknown promotion vs one they've had a long standing relationship with? Jarrett's promotion does have some star power associated with it though with Toby Keither and the creator of the biggest loser tv show behind it.

Isn't the whole thing already based around a television deal with CMT?

OH SHIT SCOTT D'AMORE IS WITH JARRETT'S PROMOTION!

This is the first I've heard of this. He was behind the booking of TNA's best period they had. I'm getting pretty hyped to see his promotion come together.
lol, ROH doesn't pay that much. Those guys are getting pushes right now. Bryan isn't leaving WWE now that he is married and is making sweet merch money right now.
Also, Ambrose was from CZW and you listen to his interviews he hates the Indie scene right now. I be he would either go to Japan or retire rather than go back to the Indie scene.
Also, Dreamers promotion draws better house show attendance than TNA right now. I bet most Indie shows do that now. Plus its funny that Alvarez has been crapping on TNA since 2006 when Russo came back. Wonder why he finally took a break.

TNA is so tainted and Dixie so useless that you could have any wrestling personality in the planet on there and not have it be even a tiny bit more interesting.
Nope. Spike will be willing to renew at a price that makes sense financially. Whether or not that price makes TNA a viable company remains to be seen.

Consistent in what way? Every month, save April, they've hit a new low.
Spike could just scale back their deal, right?

Whether it's Spike or not, someone should pick up ROH.
