Yes, the rabid kneejerk defense of it was truly actually because Eric Young was so beloved and has the power of the EY movement and not because TNA did a thing and therefore it has to be a good idea SHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPYOUFUCKINGWWELOVINGSMARKS.

His father dying, yes, but a honeymoon isn't really unforeseen. It actually isn't really a good idea for a major star to get married on Mania week, but it's not like I'm going to criticize him for that.



To be fair at the time he picked the date he wasn't exactly expecting to be main eventing.

Fans on TNAInsider duped by this:
AMC has signed a 2-year agreement to broadcast "TNA iMPACT!" , which currently broadcast on Spike TV.

The agreement, which runs through the 2016 , also gives TNA Wrestling other
live content.Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, but the
SportsBusiness Journal reported that AMC will pay as much as 50 percent
more thin Spike TV were paying.


Haha wow the grammar and spelling here are just awful. And $500k is like an order of magnitude off what a tv deal should be

At the time he 100% guaranteed a Reigns win, that win was a forgone conclusion, and only after was there talk of plans changing to make the previously ruled-out triple threat a possibility. Clearly plans changed again since then, but at no point did Metsfan make any sort of bold prediction that would require anything other than just thinkin what the likely outcome would be. So yeah, that people are taking this as proof of anything is hilarious.

Paul Heyman should not manage anyone other than Brock unless A) Brock retires, or B) Heyman turns on Brock. In any other situation Heyman being around is just a reminder that whoever he's managing is not Brock.

Yeah this is correct. CM Punk also made being a non-brock Heyman guy work but clearly that's not going to be an issue anymore.

You could probably do something with the Angle/Hardy/Sting/Joe footage for DVD/network purposes once TNA is dead and the first 2 come back for legends deals. And it's not like anyone else is going to bid for it so it'll be cheap.

It's really loving weird to me that of the entire cavalcade of ineptitude that has defined TNA over the years and especially in 2015, this is the thing that drove Chris Regal over the edge.

It's also been pretty well established that most of the boundary-pushing attitude era was a product of neccessity and not really Vince's comfort zone or intended direction for the company, which was much more along the lines of the early 90s gimmicky and kid-friendly show.

Well, ideally to get WWE fans into MMA, but Ronda seems to have no trouble being a massive draw by herself at this point so there's less need for that sort of cross promotion than there might have been when the WM31 spot was agreed to.

I love Mecca. So, TNA is either broke as poo poo and about to go under while lying their asses off, or have more money that they did on Spike but don't pay their employees or production people. Either scenario, they are an awful promotion, yet there imbeciles support them.

The firing of longtime employees is just a work and the late pay rumours are all spread by haters and bitter former employees, actually.

I don't think they deliberately try to overdo it, but with how charlotte's ended up having three 'last' matches in like 2 months due to plans changing, it does come off a little like they do it all the time.
