John Austin Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 TNA just changed their logo. Gee where have I seen that before from a #2 wrestling company going down the drain: I don't get it, the Impact Wrestling logo was fine as it was. This......well....

cool arrow Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 At least (unlike like the last WCW logo) this one is actually legible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 It looks like a tool company logo. Oh hey! Notice how they added dimensionality to the logo, rather than making it flat, flat flat, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I was going to say it reminded me of Matco Tools. Like Rippa said though, the company should just be Impact Wrestling. It would be nice to see them go without a three-character moniker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Dropping the TNA would be a great start. Can they afford new belts? They should just do a sticker with the new logo and put it on the old belts the way Lance Storm did in WCW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mco543 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 It's much better than the Global Force Wrestling logo but that isn't exactly saying a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgi86 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Live show on January 7th (Wednesday) and then the following week Impact's moving to Friday nights:http://www.impactwrestling.com/news/item/6252-DESTINATION-AMERICA-PINS-DOWN-DEBUT-DATE-FOR-IMPACT-WRESTLING And there's going to be a 12-hour TNA marathon leading straight into the January 7th debut. Impact's also getting two weekly replays, one being on Saturday morning with some exclusive content thrown in the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skelemania Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I think the new logo looks fine. I think moving to Friday night is fine. If you put out a show that people want to see, regardless of which night of the week you're on, people will see it. I agree that dropping the TNA acronym altogether would be best. It was always cheesy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Plus, you can still do company-based chants (like the old "E-C-W! E-C-W!" ones): "I-double-U! I-double-you!" Too clunky? "Im-pact Wrestling, *clap clap clapclapclap*!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E.J. Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Friday Night on Destination America? Uhhhhhhh good for them....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLKerAaron Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I liked the old logo, but the new one is fine too. That's why I can't believe all the hate it got today. Then I realized that it's TNA so it comes with the territory. I got on here expecting the worst and found some positivity. That made me happier than it should. The Friday night timeslot won't change my viewership. Just like Smackdown moving to Thursday probably won't change how I can't watch the show without either falling asleep or fighting the urge to do so.

jstout Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 You're on a network with ab-so-lutely nothing better to do than cater to your show and they put you on Friday nights? That's horrible. I thought at first that "well, Destination America isn't all that big of a network, but they'll be top dog, that might work out for them." They're not even top dog on a network that's 75 percent shows about haints. This patient has been downgraded from serious to critical. Call in its family and give them the pamphlets about hospice care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Cibernetico Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I can always think of a thousand ways TNA could have done something better so I will try not to think that way and only comment on what I see. I think the logo looks progressive and clean. I don't really care what time TNA is on as I will be DVRing/downloading the show anyways and most likely not see if live as it happens. Spike is in 90 million homes and TNA was getting over a million viewers a show on average.DA is in almost 60 million homes. So I estimate that TNA should be getting between 400-500K viewers an episode and 600-700k viewers on a REALLY good night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinit Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 How PERFECT would a 9pm Tuesday timeslot have been? (Right after Main Event on The Network). And have they announced if/where they'd be carried in Canada? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linus Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 The early days of TNA were notable for that dead look in Mike Tenay's eyes, as he realised what had happened to his career. I can only imagine what 11 years of TNA have added to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Apparently Dixie thought that whenever the crowd was chanting "TNA", they were actually chanting "T-EN-AY". Thats why she resigned him. She listens to the fans. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
