Raziel Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 It's not. They've used the same TNA belts that they started when they broke from NWA and gave those belts to Tharpe. The exception is the World Title, which they changed once a few years ago. The current belts are the GFW ones that they swapped to to get the TNA branding off, but then shit happened. Although Marty's right, they have other shit to spend money on rather than belts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I think the wrestlers all denied the parking story. Normally I'd agree changing belts when money is tight is a bad idea, but they desperately needed new ones. Every title belt looking like Great American Bash 91 actively detracts from the show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 So according to Konnan and Sami, the barbed wire massacre match will be on Twitch because it is "too violent for POP TV". When on Twitch I haven't seen yet. Didn't even know that TNA had a twitch account. Apparently the non POP TV places showing Impact will show the match on their show.

BReal Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 <rant> This rant is about 10 years late, but is there any chance in hell that this company ever turns a profit? Or has EVER turned a profit? We're not talking about blowing your meager savings to hep fund a monthly show (been there, done that, know how that feels), we're talking about tens of millions. TNA is like the cockroach of wrestling, surviving asteroids and nuclear bombs, slithering from the ashes to the shadows of a cable station that I'm not even sure I get. And for what reason? I'm not sure I can even comprehend why this company still exists in the current marketplace. Is there anyone that would watch this over ROH, Beyond, PWG, AAW, AIW, CZW, Evolve, Wrestle Circus or other upper-level indies if given the choice? </rant> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always enjoyed the Impact roster over the years more than those companies (And in certain years more than WWE) while a lot of those companies haven't interested me much.

RIPPA Posted January 16, 2018 Author Share Posted January 16, 2018 Never ever change Quote By Mike Johnson & Paul Jordan on 2018-01-16 08:45:00 Impact Wrestling announced on their website that the OVE vs. LAX Barbed Wire Masscre match would indeed be airing this Thursday on Pop in the United States, just days after Konnan announced the bout would air on Twitch.tv due to its obvious graphic and violent content. That announcement was followed up by The Fight Network, which shares the same owner as Impact Wrestling, announcing it would indeed be airing the match in Canada.
