-- TNA Wrestling President Dixie Carter says there will be a lot of changes to the presentation of Impact Wrestling after meeting with Spike TV officials earlier this week. Though she would not reveal specific details, the transformation is taking place soon and will include "format changes and new elements." Carter added the company is making a very conscious decision to focus now on young talent.

Carter also said Bruce Prichard, Senior Vice President of Programming and Talent Relations for TNA Wrestling, has returned to work after recently suffering a 'small' heart attack and has dropped thirty-one pounds. She says Prichard was set to undergo heart surgery when he suffered the heart attack.

-- Tara is signing autographs today at the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo from 1:00 to 6:00 p.m. She will also be on hand for the event on Saturday and Sunday from noon to 6:00 p.m. Visit www.c2e2.com for event information.

-- Madison Rayne is auctioning off a gold and silver wrestling outfit she has worn on Impact Wrestling and in a pay-per-view match against Mickie James.

Sorry, but I'll believe it when I see it. Dixie always says there will be huge changes but it normally turns out to be something so minor that it didn't really change anything.

Dixie's idea of big changes and pushing the youth probably consists of Jeff Hardy making a run with the title, Aries putting over Bully Ray, and reforming Beer Money so they can do the job to Morgan and Crimson who will reunite to win the tag titles under the guidance of Garrett Bischoff who will become General Manager after beating his dad in the main event of Bound For Glory...

So fuck you Dixie!

Don't change what you've got, it's an almost flawless product!

I really have no idea what putting younger talent over means to Dixie. Austin Aries winning the world title? I'll believe it when I see it. Oh I know, Garett Bischoff and Shannon Moore winning the tag titles

Nicely stated.
