Ace Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Allegedly, they lowballed Millican and he wouldn't make their new belt, which they wanted for under 1k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 If you need more proof how out of sync they are, the newest version of TNA action figures features RVD and Crimson. And Rob Terry who nobody knows what is going on with him since we haven't seen him in months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Don't worry. If they keep going with the superpush of that superfox Magnus, they'll be alright. SuperFox???? Wait... what??? And yes - I think Megan Fox is a better worker than Magnus 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Maybe. But Magnus would look much better in that outfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLIK Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Was it ever confirmed that TNA really was behind on payment to some of their talent? Things like mass firings of low lvl/unused guys and letting key talents who you would like to keep contracts expire before reaching a new deal suck but aren't uncommon and necisarily on their own a sign of gloom & doom as even WWE does this stuff sometimes. But yeah, not paying the guys you do think are important on time is always the first sign the ships sinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I think they were more behind on paying some 3rd party vendors and the developmental squad. Still....not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWABCS Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 A couple of years ago you could argue Anderson was a big star for them and probably would have sold decent merchandise. But now? HA. Anderson himself is just going through the motions. I like Mr. Anderson, but is he worth the money they are allegedly paying him right this moment? Absolutley not. The should restructure the albatross contracts first before getting rid of people who if used correctly (which is a whole different problem in of it self) could make them money. I wonder, is Hemme still getting paid that $150k for being a ring announcer? That would be a good place to start. $150K? Sheeeesh. Give ANYONE 1/3 of that and they'll do it. Hell give some people 10% of that $150K and they'll do it. I'm unfamiliar with the whole "Al Snow's terrible at behind the scenes stuff" aside from that awful Guest Booker DVD he did... so what has he done that makes him so terrible? I know he comes off as bitter and angry in some of his shoots but that doesn't so much have anything to do with talent relations... well.. maybe...

NWABCS Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Yikes. How could someone think #askdixie was a good idea? *insert joke about Dixie not knowing anything*But seriously, who is next? How much longer do we give TNA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Until Spike cancel's 'em. I imagine they'd buy them before that happened. TNA's the second highest rated show they have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Then Spike's gotta be in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 The Spike average, last I heard, is .6. TNA doubles that on good nights with a 1.2. The only thing higher is Bar Rescue, which averages around 1.8. What TNA is very important to Spike as, is anchor programming. Bellator did its best ratings with TNA as a lead-in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole Miner Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 This really needs to end with TNA dying, ROH getting the time slot, and immediately hiring Vince Russo. Bar rescue is a really entertaining show. I love how the people on shows like that and Restaurant Impossible never actually watched the show since the always make the same exact mistakes. Thumbs up on the "Sweaty and Hot" sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Strangley I think if Spike did buy TNA we'd see even more generically tatted up wrestlers and Bellator fighters then we do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole Miner Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Meltzer's wet dream would be that Bellator reality show they are doing now ending with a Frank Shamrock wrestling match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Strangley I think if Spike did buy TNA we'd see even more generically tatted up wrestlers and Bellator fighters then we do now. I smell a Russian invasion of Frodo Khasbulaev, Andrey Koreshkov, Shahbulat Shamhalaev, and Alexander Shlemenko. I want to hear Tazz butcher those names. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
