If the conference call wasn't 'everyone in TNA has had their Twitter deactivated' this will end in the most hilarious way possible.

Does anyone have a gif of Brodus *ahem* Tyrus going over the rope from that shot from Angle? Holy lord that was one of the worst spots I've seen in a long while.

I think my favourite part is that pushing a woman onto train tracks and being caught doing so on camera only makes James Storm a "borderline" criminal

super macho dude posted:What pains me about most of the TNA loyalist workers is that with their talent, they would all be pretty successful imo somewhere else AND getting paid fairly well at least I think they would. I think a large amount of their talent is guys that were either rejected by WWE (Bram, Anderson, EC3, Tyrus, Drew, Micah, Eli Drake, Angle), unwelcome in ROH and/or other indies (Davey, Kenny King, maybe Aries, Low-Ki), or who probably wouldn't get a look from either (Spud, Crazzzzzzy Steve, Mandrews, Sam Shaw, Gunner, Chris Melendez) so I don't know how well they'd do in the indies. You do have your lifers like Roode, Storm, Abyss, Young, Magnus who might be able to score a tryout in WWE or do some indy shots. I dunno if that'd translate to being paid well though, since you have to assume that at least Roode, Storm, and maybe Young have better deals than most in TNA and they're not exactly AJ-types that are going to be in demand from nearly every indy out there. I think Manik would be the closest thing to that model, since I see him pop up on indy cards a fair bit. e: why the heck is King Mo still on their roster page? They've obviously updated it relatively recently to add new talent and eliminate other guys that left.

Onmi posted:to be fair Kenny King wasn't toxic until he walked out on his ROH dates from what I remember. Well that's what I meant -- I'm not sure if ROH will be too quick to sign him after that when they don't really *need* a Kenny King right now. The wounds may have healed in Aries case though -- I could see him being in demand from ROH and WWE when his contract comes up next week.

Onmi posted:Unless TNA try to launch another pointless lawsuit at the WWE which locks their talent in and prevents them from going. It's something TNA would do. From hells heart and all that. TNA's already being sued by Bischoff and Bischoff so unless their legal team is paid in boxes of old, unsold Bully Ray merch, I can't see them juggling two lawsuits and maybe a bankruptcy hearing in the fall. e: have we talked about the terrible new X-Division belt yet? flashy_mcflash fucked around with this message at 17:03 on Jun 16, 2015 |

PWInsider is reporting that the new Slammiversary main event won't be for the world title, hahaquote:TNA changed the planned Slammiversary PPV main event of Kurt Angle vs. EC3 from that night to the 7/1 episode of Impact Wrestling (which is titled "Bell to Bell") as there was no way for the company to conceivably tape episodes that would air after the PPV without spoiling their plans. The company is working on plans for a new main event, but it won't have the TNA title on the line. http://pwinsider.com/article/94446/why-tna-changed-slammiversary-main-event-and-more-tna-news-and-notes.html?p=1

That's exactly what happened last time. They were late on pay, but made sure to issue checks on Taping Day so production and the wrestlers wouldn't walk off. This actually may be their business model at this point -- leave the paycheque money in the bank earning interest unless you absolutely have to pay the employees. edit: rovert, you can have this one for free flashy_mcflash fucked around with this message at 20:18 on Jun 16, 2015 |

Not exactly a great source (and he himself doesn't source this info), but the TalkTNA dude is reporting that TNA has retained UTA again to find a new TV deal for them.quote:United Talent Agency (UTA) who were signed on to represent TNA back in April 2014 are currently in the process of trying to secure TNA a new American televison deal.

Skinty McEdger posted:On the other hand UTA negotiated a deal that didn't guarantee exclusivity from other wrestling shows on the network, and an option to break after 6 months. Well the latter is pretty standard, but the former is more of a 'beggars can't be choosers' scenario IMO (and they likely couldn't imagine that ROH would try, much less succeed, at getting on DA). They took what they could get.
