lol cost cutting

They have no talent left and no possibility at making money running live shows. How are they going to cut costs further without it ending up with impact being some youtuber filming matches using action figures in his bedroom? What can they possibly cut at this point? Commentary? Production crew? Cut the camera people and film everything on Borash's drones?

Wrestlers are now required to pay before they work a match.

Fans can now pay to book "customs" under the provision they can be spliced into weekly programming.

As much as there's indication they plan on filling any seat. If they were being realistic in their seating it would be one row of seats going around the ring.

To be fair, how the Hell do you even start to write storylines for this show? You can't even be sure a given guy is going to be there in four weeks and everything apparently has to be taped like eight months in advance.

I have no idea how he got on TNA. I thought that was a middle-big deal. He's had 1 wrestling match that he lost. His gimmick is lifted straight from the Hardy Boyz and a loving comic book. It's going to be bad. Really, really bad.

They were, but they've been in a steady decline/sometimes death spiral since 2013, and the vast majority of their talent are people willing to work for very cheap.
