Bustronaut Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 TNA getting Pop to do a barter spots deal is the canniest thing they've EVER done. Now they're getting paid for the time when it would have just been the usual per inquiry junk* they've been running lately. *think pelvic mesh ambulance chasers, the clapper, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 There are apparently a number of issues with talent and ROH, after the big Young Bucks contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joseph2112 Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Maria K. living the gimmick? Here's the thing...Mike and Maria are smart. TNA is a sinking thinking that bringing in new personnel is going to fix the problem. TNA is most likely over paying both of them and will not get any benefits. I wouldn't be surprised if both Mike and Maria were going to make close-to-if-not-slightly-over six figures each with travel accommodations included. TNA isn't running alot of shows in 2016 so six figures with less than 100 dates of actual work (and STILL most likely being able to do non-televised indy dates) is a good deal. I am also sure POP/TNA have something cooking now that they can both say they have a former Playmate and Celebrity Apprentice participant on the network. If people love Total Divas wait until TNA rips it off with Maria leading the charge. I personally would have to go on wikipedia and change the definition of "money mark" if I indeed found out that Mike and Maria are going to make 6 figures working for TNA.

CrazyMax46 Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 The question isn't whether not TNA overpaying them, the question is whether not TNA will really actually be able to pay them at all. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nature Boy Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Since we're in the "reality era," WWE should just bring in Maria and have her feud with the Bellas. It'd probably be more exciting than the usual Bella feud. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirSmUgly Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Khali is also going to be touring with TNA in India. Sorry for no link, but I couldn't find a source that I didn't hate the idea of linking to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Well, I didn't get Destination America but I do get Pop TV, so I'll be able to watch Impact on regular television again. At least, you'll get to see Maria Kanellis again. I don't get POP TV, but I do get DA. I'm more disappointed about not having Comet TV, thus no ROH unless I watch it on my computer. I did splurge and order Final Battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bustronaut Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Hence the question mark. I am SHOCKED that there are cable systems that didn't have the TV Guide channel. That's like not having TLC or Discovery. Christ, all three of those channel went to complete shit programming. Now I'm depressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEN! Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Lagana's wanted to bring in Maria since he got there. I've never thought she was anything special as a manager. I liked Bennett a lot better when he had Brutal Bob too. At least then he filled a spot that ROH lacked as a heel. When Maria came in, it seemed like all the heat just came from her being Punk's ex. I don't know that TNA's audience really wants to have sex with CM Punk like ROH's does. I guess I'd be alright with them getting put with Matt Hardy. It's been done before but that's TNA's MO. Matt Hardy's an awful babyface. A lot of it is the booking but the rest is just him being such a natural douche. I'm not okay with them helping him win the World Title though. He doesn't belong anywhere near the World Title in 2016. I personally would have to go on wikipedia and change the definition of "money mark" if I indeed found out that Mike and Maria are going to make 6 figures working for TNA. 6 Dixie Carter action figures, maybe. Since we're in the "reality era," WWE should just bring in Maria and have her feud with the Bellas. It'd probably be more exciting than the usual Bella feud. That wouldn't be very PG. "You only got your job cause you fucked your father-in-law and you only keep it cause you're fucking John Cena!" Plus, it'd require Maria to wrestle and she's worse than Brie.

Nice Guy Eddie Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 What will be TNA's miracle be? Or did theirs happen already by getting on another network after getting dumped by Destination America. Will the miracle be checks clearing and talent getting paid?
