In the history of bad ideas, this would be the worst... The idea of promoters being in the show is not new, but always a bad idea... The whole point of Dixie and Panda was that it wasn't about being part of the show but putting on the show... Between Russo, Jarrett et al there has been more than enough of that in TNA... It didn't work in WCW either...
I was dubious when Dixie began appearing on camera at all... now if she is angling for some matches then it just proves what most feared... she was always just a mark who used daddy's money to get into the show...
The McMahons were the exceptions... Shane got where he did by being in the ring and around it since a boy... he was a ref, a commentator, a business guy THEN a wrestler... he took the bumps, did the hours in the ring to learn and worked hard so that when he finally had a match, I believe in his late 20's it was as good as any of his peers first time out the box... Shane could easily have been a WWF World Champion in the Attitude era... He was that good but he knew it was not his place to be that man... That he took the Euro title for a spell was enough for him and the least he really had earned...
Stephanie worked purely cos of the chemisty with Triple H... if she had "married" Test she would have been off TV in a few weeks... again she dedicated herself to being good... Dixie just bought the same position...
Vince himself, he was ALWAYS part of the show... the trick was no one knew he was the boss till the mid 1990's... He was just the annoying commentator guy to the casual fan... when he was outed by circumstance he ran with it... again, being around wrestlers his entire life meant he was prepared and well trained for the possibility... That he didn't do it when he was a younger man shows the respect he had for the wrestlers... he easily could have put himself in the Danny Davis role in the 80's...
Dixie is at a tipping point... its clear she knows not a damn about putting out a competing show as she has tried everyone from Cornette to Russo to HoBisch to Tommy Dreamer... no one can do it... maybe the last bit of fun before daddy "takes the t-bird away" is to give herself a belt... but turn the lights off on the way out if you do love...
