Yes... because the west coast was so successful before, for you.

Yes... because the west coast was so successful before, for you. They need to put some effort and money into promoting it. They need to make sure they do better business there. The company needs that presence. June 21st until October 18th (the day of the show), it was plugged that TNA would be in California and the attendance bombed at 2,500 fans which is low for BFG which has always gotten 3,000+ fans per year (since it's started touring) is more then enough build to let people know "Hey! We are coming to California". Plus, when you factor in the fact that a good chunk of that was most likely via travel packages/out of state people... this isn't a good thing for TNA. TNA needs to build their presence up else where before diving into it. If they were going to run a a PPV in Texas on Sunday, then why not do a Friday night house show in California? That would make more sense then making a whole house show loop on the west coast. TNA needs to dip their toes into the pool, so to speak, before doing a belly flop off the diving board. EDIT: They need to go to where they know they can draw instead of wasting money on towns that won't draw (and haven't draw). I'm not saying that there isn't a town in the West they could draw in, but, is it worth the gamble for them? I don't think so. I hate to use it as an example, but, look at Georgia. We get multiple live shows every year because we're always a successful run in TNA, it's the same thing as the north east. I'm sure someone will use the excuse of "Well, it was their first time out that way" which I say to that, well, Georgia's first run drew 4,000 people for BFG (wether it was papered or not, doesn't matter as I am sure BFG '09 was too.) TNA doesn't need to risk running two shows in California and drawing, 200-300 people each because it'll be a costly decision. I'm just saying that if history repeats itself... it'll be a bad business move for TNA Live Events. You go where you draw, not where you don't. |

I am glad to hear this. Now they will lose even more money. They deserve it too. TNA needs to take lessons on how to treat fans from the WWE. i HAVE NEVER had an issue at an autograph signing involving a WWE superstar. The current WWE product is trash and TNA is BELOW them.
