NikoBaltimore Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 If that's true about the Hogan story, man that is a special kind of dumb. Just for clarification, when does Impact stop airing? I want to know so I can mark my calendar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 They are taped through 9/30 And Meltzer said 9/30 is when DA told TNA they were done. So technically they can get through Bound For Glory. After that... no one knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I was looking for an image of "wrestling cockroach" since that's what TNA is, and google gave me this, a gif of a Japanese gameshow where two women are trying to blow a cockroach into the other's mouth to win. It sums up TNA better than anything I could ever come up with: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BP) Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Hogan turning down Dixie makes me concerned that he isn't desperate enough to make a handshake deal with Ian Rotten (yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoeCristyV.1.6 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Just take Hogan back and make Paula Deen the General Manager. Then MVP, Lashley, etc. oppose them as heels. The comedy writes itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 TNA looks to be airing on Oct. 7 on Destination America Friday, 11 September 2015 08:14 While nothing has been stated to talent and employees regarding the future of TNA on Destination America as of yesterday, the company, on its web site, and Destination America, are still listing the show for 9 p.m. and midnight on 10/7. The Discovery Network had sent a memo to employees in May stating that they were going to exercise their option to cancel the show at the end of September. The last taped episode of Impact was scheduled for 9/30. According to one company source, the belief is that a lot of matches that were taped during the early part of the tapings that were not taped as part of an Impact show will be able to be put together for international programming to fill the commitments, and that could be done for domestic commitments as well. Right now the company has not scheduled any future television tapings, but there is a deal being negotiated for tapings to be done in late November in India. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jstout Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Maybe DA thought there might be a bit more interest in a post-BFG show, so people with sense enough not to buy a PPV but stupid enough to watch TNA could watch to see what happened in the great GFW/TNA war. My pick for what may be an outcome: GFW wins the match and uses the Las Vegas tapings in the can to fulfill TNA's international commitments. TNA's announced house shows become GFW house shows, more or less. GFW goes away when the international commitments are finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sublime Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 TV deal with who?

The Nature Boy Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 I just want the 10/9 Impact to be the revival of "Are You Serious?" with Road Dogg and Josh Mathews making fun of TNA's entire existence before Puppet H reveals at the end that WWE now owns TNA and GFW and then fires everyone involved, including Josh Mathews. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSJ Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 I think I'd rather watch this than TNA/GWF...

OSJ Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Well, England kept Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks on for years, so the English have a built in tolerance for shitty wrestling shows... Also, word on the street is that Jarrett found an investor in India, a gentleman named Havinagootym Vishnuvirhir who might be willing to move the entire operation to Calcutta. As Calcutta has a rich history of black holes, GWF/TNA seems perfectly suited for the local market. I'm just gonna say what I thought all along. That TNA will just buy time on DA til they can get a new TV deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
