Whatever saves them money, I guess.

Vegas does seem like a logical location for an ongoing wrestling show like that if they have to do it. It seems less dependent on having the same people come to the arena week in and week out.
That said, I did like the feel of them on the road though.

This is just another Hogan and Bischoff failure. They said move to Monday nights, failure. They said more money, failure. They said go on the road, failure. While it was great to see TNA on the road they still do not have enough of a following to make money at it. Hogan's contract is ending in a few weeks according to the rumors, hope the TNA big wigs see that his contract isn't worth what they are paying. I for one would like to see them go after Jim Ross, maybe a fresh face would give them a renewed push that they so desperately need. He would have to be cheaper than Hogan and Biachoff and can't do any worse.

Hmmm. The Jim Ross thing could be interesting. But maybe not to him. Don't know if they could pay him enough for that headache. On the other hand, how much are they shoveling into the trash for Hogan?

With the WWE reportedly looking at City Walk for the Hall of Fame I guess that rules out a return to Universal.
As much as I want to see TNA succeed. I think that poor management is going to be their failure. Worst thing the Jarrett's did was sell to Panda energy. While the influx of cash kept them afloat Dixie Carter has made one bad call after another.
Sadly I think in a few years TNA will be gone and ROH will be the solid number two company.

The TV tapings on the road cost a shit load of money. They could have packed every building they did TV at, they still wouldn't have broken even because of how much it costs to do live TV, much less on the road. I'm as angry with TNA as anyone (you let Mickie James go? Really? If you lose the fat Samoan, we're done, TNA.) but come on. Sadly I think in a few years TNA will be gone and ROH will be the solid number two company. If TNA as we know it dies, Spike TV still owns "Impact Wrestling" and would pick everything up where it left off. |

If TNA as we know it dies, Spike TV still owns "Impact Wrestling" and would pick everything up where it left off. Yes I am aware of the cost to do live tv on the road. I was merely pointing out another of Hogan's big ideas that turned out to be a big pile of crap. You aren't gonna make any money when you can't sell out a 7,000 to 8,000 seat venue. TNA continues to let go of talent but refuses to see that their biggest waste of money is Hogan and Bischoff. Even if Spike TV continues on with Impact Wrestling do you really see it getting better. Right now they have to much input into what goes on. Jarrett should of never let Panda Energy get involved. Jarrett needs to get more involved and take TNA back to it's roots at The Asylum. TNA is like an automobile right now. The engine they have is blown{Hogan, Bischoff, & Carter} but all they do is change the tires{talent} and still expect to move forward. |

They wouldn't have made any money even if they DID sell out a 7,000 to 8,000 seat arena. They're not going to do a $1,000,000 plus gate. And I never said I expect it to get better if Spike takes over, but the people acting like the company is in this bad of shape and it'll be dead in a year or two...it's not going anywhere just like ROH isn't going anywhere.

And I would be willing to bet nobody saw WCW going away until it was to late.
