Why can't we be friends?

 

[Chris]

Bro I'm not trying to fight you I'm just trying to understand how bankruptcy is better than a product that YOU aren't a fan of but obviously some people are bc the company is somehow still alive

 

[Barry Poppins]

Why can't we be frieeeends?

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Impact could have easily run the PPV if they made other decisions. They lost all their money on touring. Thank Hogan for that.

 

[Barry Poppins]

I love you Smark, brah.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

I love you, too, boo.

 

[Chris]

That's true but they lost that money before they slimmed down their PPVs, it was a necessary reaction to Hogan's excessive touring

 

[Chris]

I just don't want you to twist this and make it seem like I liked when TNA slimmed down their PPVs bc that was when I started watching too lmao

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Put aside 2013-2018, Chris. They have Plus now. All they need to do is put it on Plus and they easily do monthly Plus specials and I might come back. Anthem already said they need to make more content to get Plus subs up so they might be doing that soon, anyway.

 

[Chris]

My main point here is: Being alive > filing bankruptcy and I'm unsure how anyone could disagree with that

 

[Chris]

And if they would have went bankrupt in 2014 then that wouldn't have ever been an option right?

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Because being alive means nothing in business. They need to turn a profit first anf then you can claim profit better than bankruptcy. Continuing to lose money is factually worse than bankruptcy. No one would file bankruptcy if just losing money forever and being alive was better.

 

[Chris]

But if they would have went bankrupt in 2014-2015 then there would have been no Plus

 

[Barry Poppins]

But Smark! Donald Trump constantly loses money, so surely that's better than declaring bankrupt- Nevermind lol

 

[Chris]

Trump has filed bankruptcy like 5 different times so that argument don't work Grim
