TNA Making Changes To Impact Wrestling
It is being reported on PWInsider Elite that TNA is making some big changes to Impact Wrestling. Reportedly Impact Wrestling will have a reality TV theme to show when it premieres on Destination America. The idea is to have cameras filming everything from wrestlers walking around backstage, entering the building and even being out of character.
Dixie Carter is said to be a big fan of reality TV and Destination America has a lot of reality-type programming. TNA will be changing the format of Impact some to better fit Destination America.
