There's always to things to remember with TNA. TNA will always be around because they have no standards and are daft enough to lose money, and have no eye for talent, so you get people like that Indian bloke getting pushed when he's fucking abysmal. And secondly, history always repeats itself with TNA. So they'll be off Pop TV in a year and streaming audio via Warburtons FM or whatever the fuck. Its like you cant get excited about anything they do anymore, because they'll always have a ceiling and with their current business model (and roster) they have a hard time getting anywhere near that.

 

I mean, if you have somewhere else to work, you are out of there like a shot. The roster houses people who nobody else wants these days.

If its a time buy that's not good. Wrestling is notoriously difficult to sell ads for isn't it? 

Mind you, surely some network would be willing to would pay for TNA though as from a TV point of view, they still get decent ratings considering that Destination America is such a piss poor network.

IT's also supposedly a time buy. Which is probably costing them a fuckload.

So they are actually paying to be on the station? Isn't that essentially being on Public Access along with the likes of Plant World and Cooking World, who were only able to swap following the cancellation of White Supremacy World

 

That comes from F4W/Insider so take it for what it's worth. But it'd make sense. Just can't see anyone else picking it up and putting it on primetime, live etc. It's such a random channel to air on to, but yup it's expensive to buy into from what I know and nobody's buying wrestling adverts unless it's live and doing decent ratings. Which TNA is doing neither of. 

 

Suggestion basically floating around is the recent India TV deal is paying for this deal. Which would add up.

Anyone suggesting it's a time buy is off there heads it's well documented TNA had quite a lucrative offer on the table from WGN they wouldn't turn that down to buy time elsewhere they have gone with POP for two very good reasons

1. The offer was better than offered by WGN and possibly a few other channels

 

2. POP is available in 75m homes (soon to be 85m) WGN 72.7m DA 57m

 

The haters will continue there bullshit no doubt but on the face of it TNA has signed a deal with a network that has a great availability
