There were a ton of empty seats at last Saturday's TNA event in Topeka, Kansas as the house show only drew 500 fans to the Kansas Expocentre, which can hold 8,000 seats. Additionally, house shows the week before in Dallas, Texas (8/15) and Muskogee, Oklahoma (8/17) drew poorly as well. However, the 8/16 house show in Lawton, Oklahoma reportedly drew drew okay. I have a feeling the Time Union Center will be empty as well come September 7th. That's a 13,000 seat venue for a TNA house show on a Sunday night.
TNA has posted a schedule of upcoming wrestler appearances. Velvet Sky, Kurt Angle, AJ Styles Christian Cage and Taylor Wilde are among those listed.
For those who pre-ordered the TNA video game that comes out on 9/8, you will get a free DVD that includes the following.
* AJ Styles vs. Petey Williams vs. Chris Sabin in an Ultimate X Match (Final Resolution 2005) * LAX vs. Senshi & Elix Skipper in an Ultimate X Match (Bound for Glory 2007) * AJ Styles vs. Rhino in an Elevation X Match (Destination X 2007) * Chris Harris vs. Christian Cage vs. AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe vs. Kurt Angle in a King of the Mountain Match (Slammiversary 2007) * X-Division Terrordome Match (Sacrifice 2008)
Christian Cage has been added to the 9/6 TNA NYC show. I'd expect him to be at the Albany, NY show the night after as well.
