* According to PWInsider, TNA is still working on ironing out their new TV deal. A source at Spike TV stated that the two sides are still talking.

How long have they been ironing stuff out now? Just seems to be a cop out that they don't know what's happening imo.

This. They've been without a TV deal since the start of the summar haven't they? Surely it doesn't take this long to get a deal. Plus hasn't the window closed now? November is the month that all the networks reveal the spring line ups and negotiations tend to stop on November 1st.

This is true most of the time but there is still a chance to iron out a deal, I'd say they really have until the end of the month at the latest though.

Looks like they have a deal which is fantastic. Where would be best for them Test? You'll know American TV networks better than me I'd imagine.

To be honest I don't watch much television aside from TNA and NBA, but hellz yeah out of the rumored trio of Velocity, Destination America and WGN America, the last would be the best. We shall see I guess, probably this upcoming Wednesday or Thursday.

Apparently they have signed a deal with Destination America.

After a quick Google of WGN America the last update with them was in early September, which sucks. At least I've heard of WGN. Hey Testicles, do you know if Impact could get a deal with Netflix/Hulu as part of this?

The channel features lifestyle, historical and travel programming focusing on the culture of theUnited States.[1]

Wut?

As of August 2013, approximately 59,616,000 American households (52.2% of households with television) receive Destination America.[2]

Better I suppose.

Spike's programming reaches approximately 98.7 million pay television subscribers in the United States.[

Yeah that's pretty bad comparing it to Spike. At least they have a network I suppose.
