 When pressure from Panda Energy started to rain down on TNA President, Dixie Carter to turn the company around, Carter knew drastic changes had to be made. She knew that the upcoming "re-branding" of TNA iMPACT wouldn't work without a total change of the product, which would mean a need for change in many forms of management. The first step Dixie Cater would make is by releasing Director of Talent Relations, Terry Taylor from the company. D'Lo Brown would take over Taylor's former position as the director of talent relations. Carter would also hire a new marketing firm to handle the marketing of TNA Wrestling. But, the buck wouldn't stop here as Carter would have to make a drastic decision that many fans have been waiting on since 2006... the decision of firing... Vince Russo. Carter and Russo would part ways on somewhat good terms, but now Carter had the responsibility of changing up the creative team. She decided to keep Matt Conway apart of the team, but the real shocking addition was a virtual "unknown" in the 25-year old, Matthew Anderson, who's been in pro-wrestling since he was 17. Anderson wrote and booked for a few different promotions in the south east including Rampage Pro Wrestling and NWA Anarchy. The changes would start to take form following the Sacrifice pay-per-view event, as that was the last even that TNA creative would use from the "blueprint" of Vince Russo for the show itself. The re-branding was official, there was a new director of talent relations, and a new creative team. Will this turn TNA Wrestling around? Only time shall tell... |

I truly can't believe you couldn't have incorporated the name change into your other 4 page TNA '11. Just seems like a waste of time, for the other one. It's literally the same people, why start over because of a simple name change?

I didn't just say "oh, this is iMPACT Wrestling", I made changes that will effect the way I book/write the entire diary/sim. |

Why not just fire Russo in your other diary. I won't be surprised if the booking is the same, because its the same people. Maybe if you hired different wrestlers it would be different. |
