- There was some internal panic when this week's iMPACT! rating was released. Many in the company felt the show would do a 1.5 easy since they had little to no competition.
- There is talk of making major changes to next Sunday's Turning Point PPV.
- At least five wrestlers including Homicide and Kazarian have asked for their releases in recent weeks and all of them were denied.
- The speech that Dixie Carter did on iMPACT! this week was not an angle. Dixie made the call to air it on TV and there were many people inside the company that were against the idea. The version of the speech we saw was the second take.

How long before someone blames it on the signing of Hogan?

To be fair SG, before Hogan came to TNA it looked as if they were going to totally focus on the "up and comers", but look at the commercials now. "What will Hulk Hogan do on iMPACT! this week?", when Hogan hasn't even been at a taping yet.

I find it interesting that every couple months it is reported that Homicide asks for his release. Why not just release the guy already. He is just going to continue asking for it.

"What will Hulk Hogan do on iMPACT! this week?", when Hogan hasn't even been at a taping yet. It broke at the start of September that Homicide asked for his release. The reports said he was telling friends he asked for it a month. So, no.. Hogan signing with TNA has nothing to do with Homicide asking for his release two months before Hogan even signed. Kazarian asked for his release a week or so before Hogan signed but despite what this report says was granted his release but Styles/Daniels convinced him to stay. So, to blame it on Hogan.. especially for Homicide asking for his (when like stated above he's asked for many times) is out of the question since it happended almost two months before Hogan signed Just so it can't be said again, not attacking him. Just pointing out what I thought along with what I read. It's not a "fight" nor a "flame war".. just a discussion.  |

I really want Homicide to stay in TNA because I think he can be big if they continue pushing him as a loose cannon. I'd like to see an angle where Homicide goes and takes over control at TNA Headquarters.

Was there really any need for that. It was obviously going to start a flame war in this thread. I swear you do it on purpose SG... |

No crime in that and there's not a fight about it. Matt posted his thoughts and I stated why it couldn't been about Hogan (atleast for Homicide) and that was the end of it. No harm, no foul. |

That speech was a joke. Its pretty obvious your roster doesnt care for Hogan. Die hard TNA fans certainly wont. So how is this helping? All it does is get you 15 mins of fame until Hogan destroys TNA.

Hopefully the "change" is:
AJ/Daniels/Joe get 40 minutes in the main event with no interference
Nigel/Angle goes 35 minutes with no BS ending and no interference
MCMG win the Tag Team Titles
-------------
That would make me......yeah. I couldn't handle all that awesomeness.

I find it funny that TNA drew a higher rating during the World Series than they did this week with no competition from MLB, NFL or anything else. Nobody is really caring about Hogan yet.

notice how Hogan/bischoff have barely mentioned TNA. Notice how Hogan talks non stop about his life, book, etc and barely mention TNA. Notice how hogan talks about his tour and never mentions TNA? Why exactly did you sign Hogan, TNa?
