It seems like they're pushing it as a second screen experience, which would only be good if it were a MST3K thing, which it almost certainly will not be.

They don't really have much choice - if they left out all current/former WWE names they'd only have Storm, Abyss and some X-division guys.

AFAIK the network thing is still there. I think the last few weeks they even accidentally leaked that week's Impact onto it before it aired, because TNA.

I like how when the LAW got canned, everybody said they’d bring it back as Impact propaganda with Borash as host, because that’s what TNA would do. And then they go & do it.

Get turbofucked TNA & Anthem. Anthem cut Live Audio Wrestling because TNA is a gigantic money sink and now they bring it back as what is probably going to be TNA propaganda.

I don't know why people see Twitch viewers as some sort of captive audience. Amazon is wanting non-gaming content to feature on Twitch mainly to expand the user base, not because they think people who watch Overwatch want to want wrestling. And while it isn't wrong to say Impact has to compete against the other content on Twitch, I mean, I'm probably watching something on Twitch instead of Impact no matter when Impact airs or on whatever platform.

Twitch is an untapped market(by commercial interests) and the payouts are in Bezos Bucks(assuming he's not run up a guillotine in the next 8 or so years) so its a win-win for content creators(that are corporate).
