Heard a story of Triple H telling Storm to take TNAs offer.

Didn't Storm also consider Impact's offer because he would be closer to family or spend more time with them?

Storm is also old.

Take the money and save it.

You also have to take in account not every 40 year old that's been working for 20 years wants to be in developmental

I'm pretty curious to see what Impact's roster looks like at the beginning of 2018. It's gonna have to be a lot different. So far the only people to leave that I think sucks for Impact is Low-Ki and Eddie Kingston. Storm leaving would kinda suck too but he's been doing the same bit about 10 years now. I could see him revitalizing his career overseas or in the indies if he chooses to.

For now only Earl Hebner is left as ref. Lol. But there'd be new local refs imo.

Yeah it's really frustrating to see multiple clips of Matches from other promotions, but I guess it was to build the PPV with Stars that aren't in their company, while trying to make Impact feel like a super global brand. The Main Event and Six Way X-Division Match were worthwhile Matches to watch from this week's Impact heading into Bound for Glory. I mean why would Impact run the same Match with the X-Division stars that they are doing at the PPV? IF anything they should of just of had a Tag Team Match, but I hope they someone change the Match into a Ultimate X Match, but that's fool's hope I guess. I really got alot of enjoyment outta Eli Drake last night. Between him putting a Bandanna on his Forehead to appease LAX, to Drake dropping Impact on those Wood Panels with a Gravy Train perfect for him last night.

Also Earl Hebner left. I think there are no refs left in TNA.

I guess Impact is paying people to come their shows, isn't first time I heard a Wrestling company giving away free or paying to get more people to come to their shows, but shit shouldn't you be saving this money you'll give to people to actually gain fans the right way and that's by them falling in love with the talent and promotion? I mean I love money and all, but unless you buying me a Stardom Account and a ton of Pro Wrestling Tees you're not going to find my price to come there for a Taping for Impact. I wonder if they just started doing this or, it's been going on for quite awhile and they wonder why they are having money problems.

Hate this kind of huge releases. Lots of bodies getting released which means lots of debuts and returns. It's not an e-fed.

Shit I mean if you're gonna rename the company for the 5th time, what better time to completely rebuild the roster. Just don't let Eli Drake go.

I'd do a full re-brand. By that I mean dump Impact Wrestling all together and rename the show, too.
