  1. The bottom line has always been about the money thrown at the product, hence why WCW in its prime wiped the floor with the WWE/F. More money to put into production values, talent, venues and fundamentally TV networks, take the UK for instance, WWE programming for as long as I can remember has alway been pretty much available to a paying audience, through box office events and a large quantity of its programing going on premier channels such as sky sports, if I remember rightly when WWF first started airing events on sky they where shown on the movie channels as at the time they we're the only premium channels on the old analogue sky system.

     

    When they dabbled with terrestrial TV channel 4 the costs of buying the content surely jeopardised the quality of what they could show hence the live delay and adverts.

     

    And the fact that TNA since they first appeared on UK tv on the wrestling channel have always been available as free to Air they seriously can't be making hardly any money from the UK audience. If sky can show them all free of charge to anyone with challenge TV, in my honest opinion it's used as a gateway to show the UK audience that wrestling exists we give the small boys free but if you want to see the bigger stuff we have that too but you are gonna have to pay.

     

    I really cannot see TNA lasting as much as I'd like there to be some genuine completion to the WWE, how they have lasted this long in all honesty is a miracle.
