I gotta agree with that, but I bet the super TNA defenders will tell you otherwise.... Who's a super TNA defender here? So many people bash them and hate them and want them to die, is any sign of positivity seen as being a super TNA defender? I don't want them to die, or ROH, or Lucha Underground, or the WWE, or pro wrestling, or any of the companies that have died in the past. Was ECW dying good for fans? Did WCW dying make things better? For Vince's pocketbook, maybe, but not for the fans. The Invasion started well and turned to suck. And that was that. And I don't want to watch NJPW - I don't speak Japanese. Well, only very little even though I took two years in high school - actually three I had to take the second year twice and I still sucked. I guess it's just the internet - people love to share their complaints with others. And that sucks way more than any wrestling company ever has. New Japan on AXS is in English. They'll have a wrestler do a quick intro before the show begins in Japanese. They'll also do an interview before and sometimes after the matches. Those are in Japanese, but they are subtitled. You don't need to see them to enjoy the show. I sometimes skip them.

I used to think the same thing about NJPW, but then I actually watched it and have never fallen in love harder for a wrestling company like I have it.

I guess it's just the internet - people love to share their complaints with others. And that sucks way more than any wrestling company ever has. There are a couple of people who will defend TNA in ANYTHING, even when they're on the wrong. Those were the people I was referring to. And please do not consider me one of those fans who want TNA to die. I want TNA to succeed, they're just not doing anything to fully succeed, and it's not because of the people criticizing them, but because the person running the place is a numbskull. I'm not sure how my comment about the super TNA defenders turned into a rant about WCW, and how you don't watch NJPW. Heck, I don't even watch NJPW. I probably won't unless the NJPW World was on the PS3/PS4 because my laptop is too slow to stream anything that's not YouTube. I'm glad that TNA found a home that has more people than their previous, but I don't myself caring too much about TNA cause they haven't given me a good reason to. I want TNA to focus on putting on a good show. To me, that's a success. I want TNA to actually pay their staff on time without having to wait months to pay the staff. I want TNA to make money. I want TNA to actually sell out their house shows instead of having to comp most of the tickets because only 100 people paid to see the show. I criticize TNA, not because I want to be cool and fit in with the others. I criticize them because they're not entertaining me much. I remember in 2004 when I first saw a TNA weekly PPV, I was hooked on the first show. I want that feeling again. I hope on that their first show on POP, they make me get excited to watch the next episode, instead of either watching it just to watch it (like I do with RAW), or just not watch it at all and only watch the YouTube clips. I'm sorry this turned into a rant, but I don't want my criticism of TNA or my shot at the super defenders to make me look as if I want them to fail. In fact, I mostly disagree with the people wanting TNA to die.

Those are in Japanese, but they are subtitled. You don't need to see them to enjoy the show. I sometimes skip them. I don't have AXS on Comcast. I would watch it if I did, though. I've seen people wanting NJPW to be the number 2 company in America and I think that's silly. Because of the language barrier. It just won't work. When those guys come to ROH, honestly, it just kind of bores me because there is no storyline, just matches. They feel like exhibitions that don't mean anything. Then again, I did use to watch AAA every week when it was on Galavasion, even though I don't speak Spanish at all. It's colorful characters entertained me, while CMLL just bored me. I thought I might learn some Spanish from watching, but no way, they speak too fast. So do Japanese people. But I would give it a chance if I could.

It's a shame that TNA can't get it together. It seems like everyone involved has really great intentions. The talent just want to work, and everything that's happening has prevented them from having pretty much any TNA events over the last 6 months.
And despite her lack of management skills, Dixie Carter seems like she really wants to have a successful company. If she didn't care about the company or care about wrestling, she probably would have folded years ago. TNA must be losing her a large amount of money, and if her heart wasn't in it there would be no reason to keep bleeding money like that. She easily could have moved on to another venture by now....but she keeps plugging along trying to keep TNA going.
It just seems like everything TNA tries to do just implodes. It's a shame.
