Not sure if this is good because it means the creative team is changing or if this is bad because it means TNA is getting ready for a sale.

What's aew?

>>20673033
can you go 1 second without seething over someone making fun of gayew?
>>
>>20673043
why not both? Dreamer and Delirious have been horrible with TNA's booking
>>
>>20673006
So that means the sole booker is Delirious
Have fun with that.
>>
>>20673043
They actually want to be purchased by wwe. Don't forget nxt only exist because roh said no to a sale years ago.

The nxt brand is garbage. The wwe would buy out tna, use the library to make money, make tna their new nxt by liquidating the 2 companies and then getting rid of tna all together like what they did to wcw and ecw after 2 years

Tummy Creamer is All Elite.

>What's aew?
They have a flaming black gay guy that shoves people's faces into his asshole as a signature move

Tommy Dreamer was the first one to take it and I never watched AEW again after that

so the answer is no, got it

NXT brand is far more valuable than TNA these days. And wtf do they want with TNA’s library, they’re gonna buy it to put it on youtube for ad money? TNA being a nominally independent company that they can use for development and poaching talent is a much better arrangement.
>>
>>20673077
Brother its the wwe. They are run by idiots. Just look at road dogg and how he had a job there but didn't actually know what was going on.

Yes the wwe would put the tna library on YouTube for ad revenue. It's easy money and they don't have to do anything. Literally just swap out the tna logo for wwe and take over the current channel.

The wwe has only pushed nxt vs tna because they don't care about them that much to put them in the main brand. Their propping them up so they can buy them out, poach talent and possibly merge nxt and tna together thinking they can scam viewers into thinking this will be tna but with wwes money. It'll just end up the same as ecw/wcw
>>
>>20673057
Is that true about NXT? It'd make sense since HHH ran it as a super indie with constant new toys every takeover.
>>
>>20673006
Some are saying Road dogg might be his replacement

>>20673129
Silkin was given an offer by the wwe to byy roh as they wanted to use it for their development brand. They said no, the wwe then created nxt out of spite and began poaching all of rohs talent to damage the company.
They had already been poaching guys but when they created nxt the just raised the level more and were giving contracts out to anyone that showed abit of talent.
Wrestlers, announcers, back stage crew, anyone basically
>>
>>20673043
Bad but because that means Delirious is the only booker, and he's the biggest indie match mark ever known to man.

I only know of Jerry Jarrett and CM Punk offering to buy ROH before Silkin sold to Sinclair in 2011. NXT was the rookie competition show until 2012. Before that they had Florida Championship Wrestling and Ohio Valley Wrestling as developmental, so the concept wasn't new for them.

Delerious is the one with all the really bad ideas. TNA will still be shit.

It's poor form to announce someone's firing before the company does
>>
>>20673006
OOTL. Unironically, why are so many fucking people leaving TNA? Did something happen.
>>
>>20673699
Because wrestling promotions are carnie as fuck, and they have internal discussions about firing someone before they speak to the person about their contract.

Paying down debts to make it more attractive for an eventual sale. They only sign scabs off the scrap heap if they need bodies to replace the one's they're losing.

Carlos is a cuck prepping the company for sale, likely to WWE

That's what we're trying to find out.

WWE has less to do with TNA now than they have since the crossovers first started. Arianna Grace and Stacks still show up on TNA but nobody else does, and none of the TNA wrestlers show up on NXT now.

>>20673780
wwe is the only thing that makes sense. otherwise it's just a bunch of paper pushing to look more profitable that any non retarded buyer could see through. obviously it's not tony since he's signing some of them as they leave, so it has to be wwe buying the IP, tape library, and I guess a foothold on amc if they want to keep running it?
>>
is TNA's entire roster going to be composed of shitters fired from the WWE main roster that Tony wasn't interested in picking up? Imagine the humiliation of getting fired from wwe and having no choice but to sign with the wwe feeder company for maybe a fifth of the pay, while you're still sent to work NXT shows

I basically quit watching TNA on the regular after they bent the knee to WWE but I still check threads about it on /pw/ and love my old school owlchads.

Speaking of old school owlchads (not the Johnny Come Lately PiggiEs who pretend they believed in Joe Hendry since 2018), haven't you guys been adamant that Dreamer's creative and booking have been maybe the biggest problem with TNA lately?

They've been creatively worse since """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""''partnering"""""""""""""""""""""""""""" with WWE and moving to AMC. Go watch the Billy Corgan era (minus that tournament at the end) and compare it to now.

To be fair, just the ones who are really good at the in-ring wrestling thing.

It's been a really good move for Kevin Knight and Speedball. The jury is still out on Ace Austin who I thought would have been the breakout star of those signings. I would say Josh Alexander probably should have stayed in TNA but it doesn't look like many jobs are secure there now.

>I truly don't believe TNA could get much worse.

You must not have been around for the Hogan &Bischoff era, Russo shenanigans, Dixie's one step forward / two steps backwards creative, merger with Global Force Wrestling (remember that name?), move to Pop TV, Destination America, AXS, etc.

If wrestling history has taught me one thing, TNA will survive and long after the nukes have fallen and humanity long gone, the cockroaches will be wrestling on an empty pizza box under the TNA banner.

There's no one who drew money working in creative or as a producer. All the good one's are dead. That's the problem.

I could see WWE signing him to help Taker with producing AAA. Taker's a huge Dreamer mark because of all the crazy shit he'd do to pop the boys back in the day so maybe he'd put in a good word for him.

Delirious promoted to top booker.
Tesa quits and goes back to Mexico.
