Exactly. I think exposing or televising your developmental show to a small audience like WWE are doing with NXT is fine. I don't think that a developmental show should be televised nationally. That just defeats the object of developmental. Originally Posted by Automatic

Seems like anything that says TNA on it is "automatically" bad to you... Originally Posted by Automatic

Well, if they keep churning out bad ideas, I have to 'automatically' say it's bad. Originally Posted by Xpacfan

Then you are absoultely right. Like I said, it only appears to be bad because TNA is doing it... Originally Posted by Automatic

I don't care whether it's TNA or WWE to be fair. Originally Posted by Xpacfan

NXT is almost the same story, but we at least had 1 impactfull winner, but that show had just an awful, awful format to begin with.
It looked good on the surface, but those 'comedy' or entertainment challenges really fucked up that show.
And yes, NXT is a internationally available show, but not because it's a web series, because it's only available on Hulu and that's an US only site and to actually watch it you have to shell out 7 or 8 dollars per month and I don't think millions of people have recently made an Hulu plus account, so the reach of that show in the US is almost non-existant.
It is also available internationally on TV, but that doesn't matter, because the only country that is really important for the WWE is the USA. All the other countries are just an extra income of rights fees.

10-24-2012, 04:25 PM #20Why put OVW on TV? Wouldn't it make more sense to, well I don't know, give that spot to TNA for another show?
Since I am a gambling man, I would say this is probably going to be less of a wrestling show and more of a behind-the-scenes reality show. As long as it is not botch city, it could work in TNA's favor. You have a chance to connect with these younger guy before they go up to TNA. Mr. Pect-whatever could have used some screen time before he came out to crickets at BFG.
