If you ask me, since I was at BFG and that turnout was far from stellar, I can only imagine what the turnout for this PPV will be.

"JBB"? Jeremy Borash Blows? I think the fact that they have to put everybody on the hard camera side to make the arena look full is proof of bad sales. That and the fact that most people would rather jack off with a cheese grater than watch TNA these days.

TNA won't die, as much as you guys would love to see it, its just not happening. They are turning a profit and actually doing well financially. Sorry.

And who really knows what the turnout could be. Maybe they're just trying to speed up ticket sales. Honestly though, with Sting vs Rhino as your main event I wouldn't be surprised if the turnout is lackluster

TNA discounts there ticket prices for every ppv i thought.

They did for BFG in Detroit 06. I got floor seats for 20$. Considering TNA is losing a big contract in Christian, I think they will be fine in 2009.

The (possible) main event is a grudge match that was already played out at BFG last year.

The World Heavyweight Championship match is a joke.

And the tag team match becomes another gang brawl with a churlish Mick Foley as the apparent "added spice" to the match.

I wouldn't pay to see Genesis live or on the box.

In no way do I want TNA dead, basically because if they become big enough and strong enough over time to push oh say WWE, than WWE will be forced to become ultra creative, just like the monday night wars, and we all know that was when WWE was the best (attitude era), so no, I want TNA to suceed, just to push WWE

They won't be dead by June, they will be handing out free tickets by June like WCW did.

^^ which is why they'll be dead. If they have more papered customers than paying customers they're doing something wrong.

Couldn't be any more right Spiralshock.

I'm actually with Chess on this. If TNA does close its doors its because a third company is on the horizon. TNA isn't that bad right now. People still watch it, and go crazy at the shows. So they are doing something right... In the opinions of those fans.

I personally still kind of like TNA. I just don't watch it at all, but then again, I don't watch WWE at all either.
