That's a debate in itself too mostly due to GCW who's most certainly an indie but also not regional cause they hit most of the country and even internationally
and you could argue even if other places are more regional if they are broadcast nationally or internationally on Fite or IWTV their market isn't strictly their region anymore. streaming kind of made things good and weird

easily. Costs a lot more but you'll make it back tenfold in the long run especially when they were at their peak.

literally a major plot point in the cverse for TEW 2020 bc they introduced streaking services so the indies that never had tv deals can now be seen in other markets easier and it changes up the game so much lol

That depends on what TNA was making on revenue though, and from what has been understood, Dixie Carter was literally losing money for years because she wasn't making enough of a revenue to justify touring.

yeah it's pretty interesting and I think in the end it'll benefit performers more than anything

I'll forever argue that NXT needs to get out of the PC and hit smaller venues around the southeast. 2000 seat arena's and amphitheaters. The small venue makes the show look small.

I simply disagree with the idea that, "Oh, TNA just needed to tour to grow". TNA needed better marketing, better presentation, and most of all, BETTER FUCKING BOOKING.

I feel like if Impact now can afford to go to different venues then they could have in the 2000s lol though they're payroll for wrestlers was probably crazy high I guess

Why I never considered NXT anything but developmental.
