TNA gets a new home

20141119-110028.jpg

As noted earlier the big announcement we had all been waiting for from Dixie Carter was revealed moments ago. The announcement was that TNA officially has a new home. The new home is none other then Destination America. Destination America is a channel known for celebrating and highlighting what makes the good o’l USA unique and what better way to do it then with wrestling?

Looks like Christmas has come early because this announcement is awesome. As someone who’s only been watching TNA for nearly 3 months I am thrilled that they’ll still be able to showcase what they have to offer, and I’m sure when I say that I’m speaking for long time fans as well

There’s a lot of people out there who think TNA is a 2nd rate show but really that’s not the case. Their in ring action is miles better then the stuff you see on Raw and their talent is filled with individuals who have wrestling in their veins.

Now I’m not saying WWE doesn’t have that. What I’m saying is the TNA roster does what they do for the LOVE of wrestling and nothing more, and that’s something that shows in the “6 sided ring”

So here’s to a bright future for TNA. Maybe now with this new tv deal people will wake up and see that it’s not just about the WWE. TNA is scheduled to air on Destination America stating January 2015. Talk about starting off the year with a bang

Report: TNA Signing With A New Network

20141029-150406.jpg

PWInsider reports that multiple sources within TNA have reported to them that TNA is really finished with Spike TV and is expected to announce a new network soon.

TNA’s reported new TV deal is real close to completed, if it’s not signed already. The new deal will reportedly be a multi-year deal. Details of TNA’s new TV deal are unknown right now but they will reportedly be able to have more programming than just Impact Wrestling on the new network.

Dave Meltzer reported on Wrestling Observer Radio last week that officials at Destination America believe a deal with TNA was completed. Destination America is a channel in the Discovery Network that is available in 52% of the country. Meltzer noted that the number is actually high, because it counts all the subscribers for a service like DirecTV, even though it’s only available on the higher tier packages. The highest rated show in the history of Destination America has only done around 40,000 viewers.

According to PWInsider, this Wednesday’s episode of Impact Wrestling on Spike may be TNA’s last episode on that network.

AJ Lee to leave WWE after Survivor Series??

20141116-190312.jpg

It’s that time again to fumble around the rumor mill. This weeks rumor involves WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee. it was reported earlier by wrestling Observer’s Bryan Alvarez that the word going around is that if AJ does indeed drop her title to Nikki Bella at Survivor Series she may exit the company. This rumor was also reported on JR’s podcast “The Ross report” (Read the original report here) http://wrestlingnews.co/report-aj-lee-may-be-leaving-wwe-after-survivor-series/)

AJ who started “officially” with WWE in 2010 as a diva hopeful on the 3rd season of NXT. Since then she has been a 3 time divas champion (one of which was the longest regin of all time), Raw’s general manager, she dropped what some call the “best promo from a diva ever”, she’s had multiple on screen love interest with some of the biggest stars in the business and main evented multiple Raw’s. With all that in mind one must ask the question what is left for her to do?

As a former fan myself I say this with no disrespect, I think that if she does indeed leave it’ll force WWE to focus on other women on the roster and even perhaps call up some new blood from NXT. Truly AJ hanging it up would be more of a help then a hindrance.

We must also take into consideration that she is married to former WWE superstar CM Punk and it wouldn’t surprise me if she wants to focus on just her married life. Not to mention this isn’t the first time the rumor mill has come up with the subject of AJ leaving.

So will AJ Lee truly hang up her chuck Taylor’s or will she be around for awhile? Will we see a new Divas champ at survivor series? All this and more will be answered in the future.

STAY TUNED!
