And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Watch me

They’re renaming it to TNA again because nobody ever stopped calling it TNA

CM Punk wrestled for them when they were called TNA.

Impact Wrestling makes Punk a contract offer, then shortly after announces they're rebranding back to TNA.

Coincidence? I think not! :colbert:

For all of TNA's faults they never made Tyrus the Heavyweight World Champion of the World so I think they automatically beat Billy S Pumpkin's NWA.

I don’t understand what positives they can expect to come out of going back to TNA. It’s such a stupid and dated name. At least Impact as a name isn’t itself already a joke or allusion to boobs and butts.

Unironically I think they're chasing the viewership from Bryan and Vinny making TNA more relevant than it has been in years (and really the company has been ever since leaving Spike) with their weekly PPV reviews.

There's no real point in trying to raise the viewership, how TNA makes money is a mystery to everyone outside of the company but I'm guessing they want to bank on nostalgia and sell more live tickets to their shows so that it becomes profitable internally.

idr how I stumbled upon it but I found Mahiro's youtube once where she streams herself playing games and it was nothing but majong and a 45 second upload of her playing Yakuza.

Wonder how interested tjpw would be learning the memes about them on various english sites, I know Amasaki being called "kevin" has made it into Stardom's orbit and I don't know that anyone knows the true origin other than people re-naming her because there was already a Miyu in the Joshi scene

Considering what him and Mike Awesome did in the 90's I'm amazed he still knows what his name is.

They could have changed it to Impact Wrestling Corporation. Though I guess getting the crowd to chant 'IWC' is a bit Vince Russo.
