TNA in 5 years?

It still doesn't mean they're going out of business lol.

How long would they keep the doors open without the money they get from the TV deal (Spike funded A LOT of TNA's business)? It's fairly well known that Panda doesn't exactly throw money TNA's way since TNA doesn't turn a profit.

They got an extension from Spike from September to December and now people are saying they're close to signing a deal. When they don't have a TV deal then it's worth discussing how they'll cope until that time it's a bit pointless imo. They're in a bad position sure but it isn't the end of TNA as you seem to be implying. Panda could have a change of heart and fund it for a short time until they do get a deal, it's blind speculation but it is plausible.

Too many vultures circling for me to think everything will turn out "hunky dory".

As I said. It doesn't take 6 months to negotiate a TV deal. TNA has known that Spike wouldn't be re-signing them since May and now the most logical channel for them to end up on only runs re-runs of Discovery Channel shows and is seen in less than a million homes if I got the numbers right.

If TNA survives, it will be a skeleton of it's former self. They will be starting over from scratch because I don't see them having the funds to truck on with the current production values or big names attached.

Is that a bad thing? If they could go back to their roots by restarting it could help them greatly.

As far as I can tell they've negotiated with Spike, been shown the door and are looking elsewhere couldn't that explain the delay? How long should this kinda think take anyway ? I honestly have no idea.

they've known that they won't stay on spike since August/July. This isn't something new. Spike has kept them on through the year as a courtesy

Do I hope they close down? No
Do I think they will? yes
