TNA really needs some specials to build to. I know networks are all about politics and advertising, but an occasional weekend block or an extended Impact would be clutch.

Like this Ethan/Bennett match. They're doing a pretty good job establishing the guys as rivals. They had their most heated exchange tonight...to set up a match on Impact.

IF TNA was smart they would cancel the year round shyt, and go for the angle that Lucha is pioneering. Get a legit production company and run the show with great vignettes and in the season format.
Probably need to kill the TNA brand though, and start with something new.

It should just be Impact Wrestling, or Impact Wrestling Association/Federation/etc etc. The name "TNA" is so damn outdated it's insane

yo i legit turned the channel any time she came out to that theme :dead:

TNA themes are pure struggle sometimes :scust:

some fan asked her about it on Twitter and she got all catty with him talking about how she was involved in making the new one (hence why it's trash) and how it was time to put the Killer Queen era to rest.

Presentation of a wrestler is underrated in how they come across. Even though I laugh at HHH and his camera stuff, he has a lot of NXTers coming out looking like stars on night 1 because their presentation is A1.

The Decay is something TNA got right...only because Billy has industry friends. That group comes out to generic music by Dixie's husband, not nearly as effective.

yeah the music goes a long way..look at Samoa Joe in NXT...his debut theme was TRASH...and now he's at least got a banger as a theme...its not great, but it goes with his persona way more than what he originally came out to

Aj Styles had a great TNA theme...his theme was the ONE in the company that really stood out to me

They should start doing what NWA/WCW used to do with the Clash of the Champions cards that would air on TBS.
They occurred every 3 or 4 months and would air on a night that wrestling didn't usually air on.
