Is the TNation still active?

[Savion83]

The TNation dubbed by TNA president Dixie Carter is suppose to be the alternative of the WWE Universe. TNA even through a one-liner in there by saying, "Who wants to get lost in a Universe when you can be in a nation?". I don't watch alot of TNA TV but I do wonder since TNA Impact is televised from Orlando, Florida each week, who are all that is in the TNation since all the DIE-HARDCORE TNA fans are in Florida?

Because of course TNA isn't on the same level as the WWE is as far as being global. The TNation are surely behind TNA wrestling to compete against the WWE. Which looks like there fighting in a losing war between the companys. But the TNation are going as far as putting up there last dollar up to see TNA as the next number one promotion in wrestling. Which the TNation have a right to do, but is that wise?

TNA are looking like they are in it's last days. So with all the negetive lights on TNA wrestling right now, will the TNation still be there to support TNA as a live crowd?

It is obvious why you might think that TNA is in its last days. Honestly, how can somebody, anybody judge ANY product if he or she or it is not following that product thoroughly. I don't get you people.

On the topic at hand - TNA's crowd has never been louder and crazier. The ratings are back to normal. The shows are awesome. Storylines finally make sense. The 'TNation' or whatever the heck that thing is will support TNA as it always has. Trust me, TNA has always been followed by mindless negative comments by people who don't even watch the product, and feel that since it's not WWE, it's very bashable. As if WWE is the end all be all of pro wrestling. Dixie? I've not heard her talk about that in a long time, though. It's a stupid thing to call your fans anyway. I hated it when WWE called its fans WWE Universe and I sure hate the term 'TNation' just as much. It's just a rip off of WWE's WWE Universe and Cena's Cenation or whatever. Call us fans for god sakes.

And the fact that you brought THAT up, which is like really, really, REALLY old news, also makes me doubt the fact that you don't watch a lot of TNA TV, you just don't watch it at all.

I have to agree with Zeven_Zion. The "Tnation" seems to be alive and well and TNA clearly isn't in it's last days. It's finally watchable again. They have a good roster, credible champions, and storyline's that usually make sense (some still don't but w/e). And they are getting decent ratings consistently, they may not be at WWE's level ratings wise, but it's still one of the most watched shows on Spike.

As for the TNation only being in Florida, that's not true. From what I've heard the crowd at TNA house shows are just as loud and into it as those in the IMPACT! Zone. TNA is developing a solid, loyal fan base outside the IMPACT! Zone, now all they need to do is break out of that place.

I honestly don't mean to rip on your thread, but it makes sense to watch and know something about a product before you go make false judgments. Just saying.

I rather be TNAtion then CENAtion ne day and I think that's what it all comes down too.
Your either TNAtion (you never know what's going to happen) or your CENAtion (Because if you support WWE over TNA you are most certainly a member of Cenation.) You enjoy a G rated wrestling show, b/c parental guidance shouldn't even be needed for this crap. WWE is a show for people who don't like the cursing, explicit violence and sexual innuendoes, or cursing. Every raw you can look forward to John Cena being the only guy involved in major storylines, only guy to show up repeadtedly on the show, only guy the fans chant for when another wrestler is getting manhandled.

I think the TNAtion is still very much alive. The move to monday nights was a misstep, but we've righted the ship and are about to have 2 awesome PPVs in one week and I'm sure there are many surprises in store for us. As for WWE, I'm going to spoil something for you ... Triple H and Undertaker will return soon! Smackdown will be mainevented by Swagger, Big Show, Punk, Taker, Rey, Kane .... and Raw will be mainevented by HHH, Cena, Orton, Sheamus, Miz w/ appearances by the Nexus.

Lol, I bet nobody else knew that but me.

The TNAtion is alive and kicking. What TNA is currently putting out is exactly what should have been coming out when Hogan and Bischoff first started in TNA. The storylines are great, with the EV2.0 and Fortune stables, the Lethal/Flair feud, Angle's rise to power, even the Knockouts division, despite having a lot less KOs than before, is getting entertaining again. Hell just last week the TNA TV Title is finally getting some airtime.

If this is what was going on in the beginning while TNA was still getting the hype from acquiring Hogan and Bischoff, perhaps we would have gotten the Monday Night War we were waiting for.

Hey Yo!

Dude you pretty much shot yourself in the leg when you said i don't follow TNA much. Honestly TNA is stronger than ever ratings are on the climb, crowds/fans are getting into the wrestlers and stroylines and it is really making for good consistent programming something TNA lacked for a while. TNA is starting to develop structure and is coming off very well. Even IF TNA was on it's last legs im sure the TNation will support it no doubt.

TNAtion is not the term used to reference TNA fans. TNA calls there fans, fans. TNAtion is a select group of street-team members who sign up and assist in the promotion of TNA in exchange for rewards from TNA. Bands, concerts and films use this same sort of freelance promotion tactic. Last year TNAtion members where seen wearing Sting masks supporting Bound For Glory. So just to reiterate, TNAtion is not a counter concept to the WWE Universe, it's a club/street team. TNA calls its fans, fans. Or in the case of Kaz, the TNA Galaxy.

This thread was wrong in it's direction from the start, and it's been corrected by Red in the post above me. Considering it was hardly an open ended question to begin with, I'm closing this now.
