There's no concrete evidence that Russo's involved with the product.

So, basically, this is the best business decision TNA has made in years.

On the other hand Dixie Carter being a woman didn't stop her deciding to pay the Knockouts as little as possible.

Christy Hemme never showed up to DC and requested to be part of a congressional hearing.

This is what I'm hoping for, personally.

What I'll be getting is probably a worked shoot were Aries is booked to lose then shoot-wins and then has a feud with a stable called 'Creative' because Hemme is still mad at him.

And then he somehow becomes the face in the feud because he was just 'asking questions'.

Guys, I just bought some 2008 TNA collectible cards today. I was going to make a joke about how it might be money wasted, but at least I didn't have to keep Dixie Carter around.

The first card in the next pack was Dixie Carter.

Edit: I also bought 2010 packs but they didn't ship them, so I guess like everyone else, the company I ordered from likes to pretend TNA died by then.

She's still getting paid well by TNA because of that diva search win, right

Meanwhile, get ready for some NYC tapings

PWInsider posted:

TNA has completed a deal to run Impact Wrestling tapings at the Manhattan Center's Grand Ballroom this summer. I believe details of the first tapings will be announced on tonight's Impact.

I believe the first tapings will be the final week of June. PWInsider.com will 100% confirm the dates when we can.

I'm an alien.

That's part of their money pit idea of looking good for Spike so they'll have a greater chance of getting their TV deal renewed, right?

This can only mean good things for them.

They have been building to this for months but I still didn't think they would do it this quickly and not on PPV.
Eric Young deserves it though. The guy is a main event level talent, he just never got the opportunity to wrestle the top dogs.
