This is awesome if it's going to lead to them going live, which is probably the 100% main reasoning for it.

Well I been to a TNA House Show and it was f'n amazing so the house shows are great. But I don't know if its making money or not. When I went it seemed like a pretty good crowd but could have had more people also. I say it about about 75% full I guess. Pretty good. I wish they wouldn't end it cause maybe I can get another but if its for money reasons end it but only for that.

They don't run house shows because Spike won't foot the note on it. People like to believe Dixie Carter is big on money and pumping it into TNA and that's just so far from the truth. All the top talent is paid by Spike, all the scrubs by TNA. Spike doesn't give two shits what TNA does outside producing 2 hours of fresh tv footage every week and Dixie and TNA just don't have the money nor the demand to do house shows. So what Hogan's thinking is: "hey, lets forge us a new identity and see if we can bring up the demand". TNA has wayyyy bigger problems than house shows anyway, like getting people to actually shell out hard earned cash for their PPVs. 7k-10k buys aint gonna cut it.
