TNA Wrestling is announcing the creation of a new one-hour television series, set to debut in early 2009.
“TNA Epix” will feature the most awe-inspiring and monumental moments, matches and superstars that shaped the face of TNA from its 2002 inception until today!
From the first TNA event in 2002 and the early Wednesday night Pay-Per-Views, to the Fox Sports Net era and the evolution of TNA on SpikeTV as well as the most recent wars inside the six-sided ring, the new program will include rare matches, archived footage, fresh historical commentary from the TNA superstars and so much more
“We are extremely excited about ‘Epix’ joining the TNA broadcasting universe,” said Kevin Sullivan, Director of TNA Television. “While ‘iMPACT!’ is undoubtedly the crown-jewel of our worldwide presence, ‘Epix’ will chronicle the amazing history of TNA and allow our fans to re-live some of their favorite moments.” . “Epix” will be produced by Bill Banks at TNA’s new state-of-the-art television headquarters in Nashville.
Check back to TNAwrestling.com in the coming weeks for more exclusive news on “TNA Epix”.
TNA Television currently produces over 350 hours of programming annually, including “iMPACT!”, Xplosion, International broadcasts, DVDs, SpikeTV specials, online videos and much more. In addition to “Epix”, TNA is already exploring additional broadcasting opportunities in 2009.

CMT.com's blog noted today that TNA owner Dixie Carter (mentioned under her married name of Dixie Salinas, and yes, that's where the Shelly Martinez character name came from during her LAX run) purchased a $2.13 million mansion on Hilsboro Pike in Nashville from country star LeAnn Rimes. Dixie's new pad, "sits on 3.2 acres and has a nice library, great room and yoga room" according to the CMT report, which then joked, "It even looks big enough to accommodate a wrestling ring or even a steel cage, but I don’t expect any brutal beatings to actually go down here." Merry Christmas Dixie!

This sounds really good. I can't wait to check this out. There are so many good matches/moments to choose from that went down in 2002-2006.

I have all of the weekly PPVs so this is not a big priority to me.
However, it would be pretty interesting (and funny for that matter) if this ended up beating Impact in the ratings.
