Ryback Hates Bullies Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 In Britain, Kodi has really taken off and so that might have pushed ratings down a bit. Smackdown and NXT have both really encroached on TNA's status of alternative product. And the matches haven't been good enough often enough recently. I could see one of the UK feds like RPW/WCPW maybe doing TV for Challenge. I dunno, maybe I am underestimating the production costs.....

Michael Sweetser Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 For the cost of that sign, they could have probably actually paid a few of the workers on time. 5

hammerva Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 personally I would rather clean those mats than listen to Al tell you 4 to 6 hours a days about how the business is terrible and how much of a genius he is. 4
Technico Support Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 I image Al teaches them to bump and work on filthy half-inch gym floor mats from Modell's, all the while telling them that they have to earn the privilege of working in a real ring. And all the while he actually just doesn't want to pay for a ring.
JohnnyJ Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 My favorite part is the 5 foot nothing guy in the RVD long sleeve sweatshirt. How much you think Al ripped him off for?
The Z Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Naming it the Impact Global Development Center is a joke obviously, but I don't think this is school is that bad. Al Snow isn't the only trainer there, they also have Doug Williams, Bad Bones John Klinger, Joe E. Legend and a few other wrestlers with a lot of experience.
RIPPA Posted November 2, 2016 Author Posted November 2, 2016 SURPRISE~! Another vendor TNA dicked over would like their money http://www.sescoops.com/exclusive-tna-owes-yet-another-debt-this-time-to-merchandise-designerimporter/ Quote The plaintiff/creditor, Fraley International, says on its website that it “provides expert resourcing and trading solutions for all of your importing/exporting needs.” In the complaint, it’s explained that “TNA has contracted at various times with Fraley for Fraley to design and order various merchandise for TNA, including, but not limited to, t-shirts, cups, and sunglasses.” They design, source, and order the merchandise, having it shipped directly to TNA from foreign suppliers, fronting all costs and not being reimbursed at all until TNA pays them after receiving the order. This arrangement went south starting in September 2015, when TNA stopped paying Fraley. This went on for 23 different orders until the relationship completely fell apart after TNA never paid for a December 22nd, 2015 order. Farley insists that “TNA accepted the merchandise without objection or complaint” plus “the merchandise was in good working order and was consistent with TNA’s order.” All told, TNA owes a total of $43,348.70. Nothing has been filed in the case since July 19th, when TNA’s attorneys filed their notices of appearance. That’s the procedure for when a lawyer puts him/herself on down as an attorney of record on a given case, and there’s been no official movement since TNA’s lawyers filed their respective notices.

joseph2112 Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 Spoiler TNA--Un-fucking believable and Un-fucking killable.
Curt McGirt Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 Dixie is the arm and microchip. Somebody would have to take out a hit on her to end this fiasco once and for all.
Matt D Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 Did people really think Billy was going to get paid on time?
