    Can they turn it around?

    This is just a thread to get opinions on TNA either being able to turn things around, or are they on the downhill slide?

    My personal opinion of the product right now isn't very good. The booking is terrible, and things need to change, somehow. I'm loving Storm/Roode and Hardy/Angle isn't too bad either at times. But, what about when those storylines run it's course? I think when the original Immortal debut, TNA could have been head to head with WWE in 1 years time. A heel Jeff Hardy, leading Abyss, Jarrett, plus Hulk and Bischoff would have been amazing, BUT, they struck out. If they could have gotten the Mafia back in to feud with Immortal, it would have been awesome. Almost a continuation of the New Blood vs The Millionsires Club, BUT, they struck out again. So, now what??

    I would suggest being the "new attitude" of this Era. Hardcore Matches, Knockouts being more provocative, and GET THE X-DIVISION BACK!!! Put Joe back as the center of the X-Divisiom, and build your company around Joe, Roode, Hardy, Styles, Storm, Crimson, maybe Angle, and Abyss. SIMPLE FIX!!!

    Honestly I disagree, TNA is the better now than it has benn for a long time IMO.

    Their focusing more on their own talent, which was a major issue some people had.

    They have the best heel in the business in Bully Ray.
    They have the most over face in the business in Jeff hardy.

    on the whole IMO things are on the up for TNA.


    One of the few that believes In Fandango!

    While i think its good their focusing on guys like Bully Ray, Roode etc, at this rate TNA isnt looking good.

    Remember back two years ago, it was really good, people were thinking TNA could compete with WWE.

    But with Bischoff and Hogan dictating TNA right now, then the likes of Garrett Bischoff getting pushed down everyones throat as the future, TNA need to stop fooling around because a lot of their fans are getting fed up.


    YES!YES!YES!

    Also have to disagree. Honestly in my opinion there are only a couple of little things holding back TNA. You can say the booking and what not is bad but it is still far better than WWE booking. Exposure is the biggest thing. But it's ridiculously hard to get exposure on a WWE level because it is an empire now with numerous avenues at their disposal to remain in the public eye. I know it's been said to death but if they went on the road, that would be the biggest thing. People would get a chance to feel it live and see how it really is, this gets word of mouth going around about them to build their fan base outside of the Impact Zone. This one thing would be huge for them. If that fan base goes up and they start getting more viewers (reflected in the cable rating), they can start going live. Obviously this would take money but you have to spend it to make it. They need someone who will foot the bill without wanting to be involved in the running of it too much. It really would be a good investment for someone with money as well. I'm a WWE guy for sure but I definitely think TNA puts on a far better show.

    I think Heyman, would do better than Bischoff/Hogan. I know, they're the ones, we're stuck with, but I asked Paul Heyman, "I know your not interested, but I wish you'd save TNA?! His reply, "It's not that "I'm not interested." It's that they are unrealistic about what it takes to turn their company around."

    Nice, i agree with you and Heyman, he's a good business man and he knows the business well, personally i would rather see him in charge as bischoff/hogan are killing TNA for many people.


    YES!YES!YES!

    This question has been posed on a weekly basis since 2005. Some people like the product and say it's about to break out, other dislike it and say it's about to close down. However what TNA will actually do is continue to hover in the 1.0-1.3 range until there is significant change in management. They do some things very well, some things very badly but really there is no shame in keeping their ratings at a steady level. After all I'm sure the WWE would be delighted to be able to keep their ratings level for a few months.

    I have to agree with ya. WWE have some great talent on their roster, some get pushed, others get pushed aside. The womens division is just a mere shell of itself when Trish, Jazz, Ivory, Victoria, Molly Holly...etc were a part of it- now they only have Nattie, Beth and AJ that are worth a crap- Beth being the only one used that much. Tag Division- a joke- I don't even know who are champs now. The angles- Punk and Jericho- entertaining- anything concerning Cena- those angles are rushed- Cena always comes out on top. I could go on and on. TNA- most of their matches are heads above what WWE are showing for the most part. The woman- can actually put on a great match- even the so called eye candy are better than Kelly Kelly, Eve, Bella's etc. Sure, like WWE, TNA has some stupid segments- Hogan and Bischoff pretty much suck- but overall, I watch more of Impact show than Raw and SD shows combined.

    TNA just needs more exposure- mainstream exposure

    I'm going get heat for some of this but whatever. The WWE MARK seems to think that Hulk Hogan and Eric are just TNA and nothing more. It's like a broken record... cut it off!!!

    TNA has the better show period, bully ray is becoming something big and I remember when people on this site said it was a dumb move. I see the MCMG are back and yet no mention of that. TNA has three of the four hottest names in the business right now and if the forth guy was in TNA instead of WWE there would have been a YES Shirt out there awhile ago.

    TNA needs to dump like the WWE does but when you keep seeing people slam on TNA waaaaaaaaaaay more then WWE it shows how many MARKS on this site
    Don't sing it... Bring it!!!
