We all know TNA is going on the road, but there is something that always brings a smile to my face, the change of scenery. It may be the bigger stadium they used. It feels like they belong in bigger stadiums. No longer this minuscule little pub in the corner that Impact is usually taped with the same fans making the the product feel all dull and melancholy.
Is it possible for TNA to stay out of the Impact Zone? Will it be for the better? If so, will it blow up in their face?
Not quite ready for the big stadiums. Basically they would have to block off 3/4's of the stadium with TNA Impact drapes to be convincing.
On an a slightly unrelated note. Did anyone notice on last night's Impact that the middle front row section of fans would disappear and run back every few minutes, What was all that about?

I do plan on going one day though.
well yeah some of the people will look like they go therew a lot. but they also tape like 2 to 4 shows sometimes a night.
They use to tape 2 or 3 shows or only during the Holidays now they do..... Only bad thing about the double tapings will be someone who have to set for for 4 or 5 hours of wrestling
TNA will never be as big as WWE, but if they EVER want to be taken seriously and become the legitimate No. 2 company, then they've got to:
#1 - Get the fuck out of the Impact Zone for good
#2 - Be on the road 24/7. Different city every week.
#3 - At least half their shows need to be live.
#4 - Find a better channel than Spike TV to air on.
#5 - Advertise. Advertise. Advertise.
All of this is going to take time and effort, but if they don't do this, they will never any bigger than they are now.
