Now, as we all know, there have been many reports about TNA's business decisions, like checks being late, the recent house show misdeal where almost half the wrestlers weren't cleared to wrestle by the state commission. I came across this video while on Facebook today. It was the PWR PrimeTime Xtra video from July 20th. Not sure it any of of you have heard of them. From what I heard, these guys are TNA fans, but the conversation they had on this video was about TNA's business decisions and their current problems. I listened to the entire fifteen minutes of this video, I gotta say, they made some very good points, points I tried to talk about. I had to agree with 98% of they said because they made great points. Just wanted to post this video for people to watch/listen. Wanted to see people's opinions. It's a very good listen, so I recommend people to at least watch the video before posting.

Oh, it's more wrestling 'journalist' looking at the doom and gloom while predicting TNA will be out of business. That's fresh.  |

There are always going to be parts of every wrestling company that fans object to, but overall, TNA is turning their product around. I was at the Asylum every Wednesday for two years and I can assure you that where TNA is now is a HUGE step up from where they were then.

They're a privately run company. Anything regarding the happenings of their business is conjecture.

interesting video from 2 super marks If you mean super marks of TNA, then you are correct. From previous videos of them, they seem to be huge TNA fans. |

This is too funny. Last time I watched TNA they had a packed roster and were doing better than WWE. Now, it looks like TNA has fallen to the ground. Hope they can pick themselves back up cause right now its like they're a huge joke.

Do people realize that in exactly 1 year, TNA will be an older wrestling company then WCW was? They might always be "minor league" but I dont see them going out of business anytime soon unless the Carters pull a Jamie Kellner and pull the plug on it.

Dixie needs to go. She's damn near ruined the company that the Jarrett's started and it's sad to see.

People are also forgetting that Panda Energy is a multi-BILLION $ company (more than Vince), as long as they stay vested in IMPACT, TNA isn't going out of business anytime soon. But like you said, if Bob Carter pulls the plug, TNA will become wrestling's Titanic - which would be incredibly sad to watch, considering everything they've accomplished up to this point, not only for themselves, but for the industry. |

the company isnt run by wrestling people-true.
dixie was working as a marketing agent or something and i believe jeff jarrett let her know the company needed money and she happened to have a mega rich father. since her dad helped fund the company, she got bumped up to president.

This is 10+ years of fail by TNA. A company that started off as a fresh new idea has morphed itself into a retirement home and playground for people that don't want to take the business seriously and as a consequence has undercut, at the least the dreams of alot of athletes, and at the most their livelihood. It's How to F up a business model 101. I say t all the time, and it's why I am always hard on them in my opionions. They take 2 steps forwards and 10 steps back, everytime. I'll admit the product on tv has been much better the last few years, but then the wrestlers have always been decent to good. It's the idiots running the asylum that have continually screwed up booking and business decisions within the company that continue to make it a joke in the wrestling community. Man I miss the days when people were getting excited about getting consistent 1.2 and 1.3 ratings for 2-3 weeks straight.
And these guys at PWR, while at times I find annoying, are more than just journalsist. They no more about the business then any fans do so I can't argue much, nor do I want to, with what they are saying as they do have cred.
