    It's going to be even more insulting if/when he turns out to be washed. If he can't even bring the old EC3 charm in his promos... it's over

    259,000 viewers for last week's episodes, which is a new high for the AMC era. I think they also got a sponsorship deal, but I don't really know much about it. Good for them, but I hope they spend more on talent. Idk how you can have numbers THIS good (despite having a shit premiere, which...

    I don't know much about Gunn, is he actually really wealthy or something? If Scott offered $10 million and was rejected... how much more is the company worth now...

    Ash by Elegance talking shit about other talent is crazy :lol I'm gonna miss Jake and Wentz the most. Jake feels like he's one step away from being a star (it's like he lost his personality once The Deaners ended), and Wentz won me over as a singles guy with his Speedball and Dez matches last...

    Ah the Rascalz have gone to AEW. All four of them. They had Myron Reed win a #1 contenders match, only for him to leave. And the X-Division champion is seemingly absent because WWE main roster wanted him to work their European tour (unless I'm mistaken). Being a TNA fan is one hell of an...

    I think Wentz and Trey go to NXT tbh. They could do with them in the tag division, and Wentz has been on NXT a few times before. It's so weird that TNA gets a new TV deal and this is the state of the roster. I'm sure they'll bring people in, but somehow 2023 Impact's roster felt stronger to me...

    This is from the newest D'Amore Drop where Scott mentioned meeting with NJPW in November 2017 before him and Don Callis were announced as TNA executives. "Anthem Wrestling Entertainment" lol. Imagine. Also, this makes me wonder. I think there was a PPV advertised as "TNA: There's No Place Like...

    The other day, someone told me that TNA's top stars were always going to leave. I disagree, and it got me thinking about how a lot of people in those discussions forget how important Scott was to the roster. Moose signed a 5 year deal, and said Scott was a big reason why. Jordynne Grace was...

    I just saw one of the more prominent TNA fans on Reddit claim that there are tons of people "claiming to be TNA fans since the 2000s" that "defend AEW and just shit on NXTNA". Ignoring the proud use of NXTNA :lol I know it comes down to tribalism, but I really hate this section of TNA fans who...

    Yeah, when they break a new attendance record or people say "TNA is so hot right now" I just think about the WWE effect. Most of the buzz comes from the live shows or when people appear on NXT. TNA's own booking is very meh. Delaying Hendry's title win (twice), his reign was basically just...

    Same. All of the big 4 PPVs that year were fantastic (even Rebellion, which had two vacated world titles) and so despite my nervousness around the rebranding, I trusted in the bookers. Hard to Kill weekend was where I reached maximum hype. The production was so much better, Nemeth felt like a...

    Today marks 2 years since Bound for Glory 2023, when the company ended the PPV by announcing that "TNA" would be coming back. Can't believe it's been that long. Funnily enough, we had a bit of a break after that show too. Also, Ospreay vs Bailey happened, and it was about as nuts as we expected.

    TNA General Discussion Thread

    I was looking at some old r/squaredcircle threads last night, just for the sake of it. I find it so funny that in the thread about Scott D'Amore being promoted to President of Impact Wrestling (in early 2023) there's a comment from someone who I've noticed was extremely anti-Scott the moment he...

    I'm surprised nobody has gone after the NXT North American title yet. Only Santino, but he's management at this point. Tbh it was kind of funny that TNA got all their wrestlers to angrily tweet throughout the NXT show this week. I'm sure they're finally going to *do* something about it next...

    On a random TNA note, I was looking at the YouTube channel today. It's all so clickbait-y :lmao I feel like this is a new thing, they don't really tell you the two wrestlers appearing (maybe you'll recognise from the thumbnail) lol. Game's gone smh

    I knew I should have just said "WWE main roster" in the first place :lol But in my defence, I don't think most people discuss NXT talents (in a TNA context) and purely say they're "WWE" Either way, now all we know what I was talking about.

    I would have said NXT then

    Have we? Aside from the Royal Rumble appearances and apparently Hendry's house show stuff. Genuinely can't think of any other matches with main roster talent.

    I just realised, we've had two WWE vs TNA matches (Hendry vs Orton and Brookside vs LeRae) and both times, the matches ended in under 5 mins and with a TNA loss. Lol. Also I miss MCMG.

    Yeah, I get you. It would be nice to not be associated with a company like that. Also, I think the world of TNA and think they could thrive on their own. I personally think that if Anthem wanted, they could have suitable TV deals in the US and UK. I think they're holding out for something huge...
