that was the wrestle talk tv special
Sounds like a disapointment then to just air part of it on WTTV couldnt challenge have just aired it without WTTV show.

Oh right.

They could have really just aired the whole thing in one go. Might have to see if its on youtube.

this wednesday the "gutt check" ono ppv is on.... don't bother looking at the challenge website... their latest news is 8 months old - nearly as unloved as the DA website tna tab.

gutt check is an interesting theme for a ono (i.e as a stand alone unlinked to impact story build) which could appeal to folk who like "wrestling the dance" over storylines... of course every wrestler has to have a story gimmick so just the dance skills alienates some...

the prize being... being on the impact roster... er!

as for impact we are building to the gfw v tna on a impact with a legacy ppv name.
the results may well have been pre-empted by the release of tv schedules for the weeks after (and the fall schedule) on DA

Watching this week's impact, and the talk between the two groups representing GFW and TNA must left me thinking did someone watch the invasion angle from WWE, as they practically used the same speeches from then!

Also why not have the TNA Champion representing the company in the main event, if it such a hugely important match??

Good to see the Beautiful People back together, although saying that the Doll House doesn't have enough people is strange, as they currently have four members to the BP's three.

Also why are they still talking about Bully Ray?? He is quite visible in another company at the moment.

My friend thinks this is the last month of TNA, any truth to this? TNA has been dire for the past couple of years, I still don't want it to go though...

The US TV deal is over next month so it looks very likely they will just shut down.

Jarrett may buy (or may have already) it back to merge it with his new company GFW.

No not really.

Surprised Bubba hasn't taken her to WWE she's not great but they have worse.

I suppose Jeff Hardy was always going to end up having to become EC3's Personal Assistant as it is a way for TNA to get one of their biggest names some screen time while his leg is healing.

Angle has confirmed he won't be resigning to TNA when his new deal expires in January. Instead, he'll be taking a break from wrestling. Won't be pursuing a WWE deal either.

The WWE don't want him anyway, so I guess he doesn't really have a say in that matter.

He claims he's "close" to 100% healthy, so maybe a sabbatical will do him good ?.

I imagine Dixie would have given him all the time off he wanted though if he'd re-signed, so his need for a complete break must be quite strong.

Angle should just finish altogether for his sake and the sake of his kids. He's just sad to look at now. Stay away for a few years, come back to WWE for a HOF spot and a few legends appearances and just enjoy the money he's made.

Think he knows there will be no TNA to go back to anyway.

And if it does get a new TV deal and TNA is willing to keep paying him his asking price he will be back.

Maybe he already has it on good authority he will get a Hall Of Fame induction, new DVD package and maybe even a 2K17 game appearance if he isn't a member of the TNA roster?

As you say, I'm sure Dixie would have given him the time off. But then again, maybe he just doesn't see the point in re-signing if he knows he isn't going to be there. Maybe TNA didn't want to sign him knowing he isn't going to be there anyway.
