Still waiting on this big TNA news btw. People on Twitter are claiming that it's coming from Meltzer but he hasn't said anything himself by the looks of it.

Knowing them, Destination America will give them a stay of execution and they'll manage to survive again.

Meltzer wouldn't put out news like that on a Tuesday night. It would be in the actual Wrestling Observer which gets uploaded in the early hours of Thursday mornings UK time.

I doubt it's coming from him as he's not thrown his beloved customers a hint on the BOARD.

The latest rumour suggests that GFW have some big news coming too. This is all going to turn out to be nothing I guess.

Funnily enough, someone has taken out the domain name www.GFWMecca.com which links directly to THE BOARD.

Are we really putting negative connotations on someone liking their customers? What has the wrestling industry done to us!

The BOARD was infamous because no one attempted to moderate it and only people who were paying the $11 a month to f4wonline dotcom could read it, meaning it felt more anonymous than other sites. As such it was 4chan turned up to 11 with a rasslin theme, where trolling became high art.

Alas the craziness got too much and it is moderated a bit now, but I say 'beloved customers on the BOARD' because I'm sure a lot to the time the owners of f4wonline don't want to deal with us.

Edit- REN had 20,580 posts there before he flounced.

Jarrett teasing a "deal" that is immanent on Twitter. So GFW have TV or there's a merger perhaps?

Is the tour being taped?

Pretty sure every thing TNA does is a Impact PPV or ONO taping now.

Hilariously Jarrett tweeted this this morning

Not the 1st time... Certainly will not be the last-- Legalities can/will kill a deal quicker than anything... #NotForLackOfEffort

Assuming there's anything to tape for.

Lots of rumblings now that people within TNA are expecting the just announced July tapings to be the last set of tapings TNA hold. Looking at how many their tapings they'll have in the can by then it'll almost certainly be enough to take them through to September when the DA deal may or may not die. This would be the perfect time for TNA to try and put some of these issues to bed and project a more positive message by announcing television tapings in September.

For what its worth I suspect the UK tour will happen regardless. The question will be whether its the TNA swansong or not I'd have thought.

I'm starting to thing that #LOLGFW is going to become a thing soon enough.

If TNA did close in september on a TV deal then im guessing they ll still do the tour no matter what but as to if it ll air the UK tour is another thing.

Seems a shame everything is pre taped these days so you know whats going to happen in advance like PPV names just being a impact show.

Why would they even bother to go to the expense of taping the tour of the show is dead anyway? In fact, why would they bother to run the tour at all?

Yeah this one has puzzled me. If they lose the deal in september they wont have anyhwere to broadcast the episodes unless its a UK exclusive.

Because its potentially cheaper than cancelling it. TNA out source the running of their international tours to other companies so they'll already be in the hole for that. Not to mention the costs of the venues themselves of which they'll have already incurred at least some cost and then the potentially tricky business of refunding those who have paid for tickets.

I wouldn't at all expect the tour to be taped at this point though. Unless they try and package some kind of 'Farewell TNA' DVD release or something. Or Panda is willing to just sink a lot of money into the company to keep filling international TV deals in the hope they can secure another domestic deal. At this point it might just be cheaper and easier for Panda to buy a TV network...

Impact is on the air in a lot of countries at this point. They'd have to lose a lot of TV deals for their television output to be UK exclusive.

If we do see a farewell thing from TNA as a DVD release maybe they could work a deal to bring AJ back for 1 night.

Hasn't Styles basically all but said at this point "I really don't want to go back there stop asking me about it"?

I'm not sure its a case of wanting them to die and it certainly isn't from my perspective. Its more that at this point it seems like an unavoidable thing.

Go away. This idea that if you don't love TNA you're just a mindless WWE drone is utterly stupid. I also don't understand why this doesn't work both ways. I mean if people that don't support TNA are just mindless WWE drones why aren't people that do support them mindless anti-WWE drones? Why is it only people that agree with you are capable of any kind of independent and legitimate thoughts and opinions?

No I just think TNA has failed and is crap time to put it down.

As you know I don't just watch WWE I'm a major ROH fan I don't want or think that will die because it's good in fact I'm hoping the death if TNA will get ROH on worldwide TV on channels TNA was once on.

I'm also a fan of pretty much all wrestling I can watch US UK Japan Mexican all of it I have no wish for any of the othets to die.

If anything I think TNA is hurting pro wrestling now as it's just so badly run it's putting other channels off airing other groups.

I hope ROH hits it big on DA then moves up to Spike or something.
