Not Sure How, But TNA Should...

[jameyt2003]

focus their business and television and agenda around keeping the WWE in check. Quality control is what I call it.
There is no way possible this company is overtaking WWE on any level of business at the moment, but they sure could play stick in the mud for a lot of WWE efforts.
WCW not only provided a viable financial threat to the WWF in the 90's, but also forced their product to maintain a higher quality. Now yes, there were times when the WWF was just flat out worse than WCW but they rebounded and while WCW was still around, had a period of great television, talent, and products.
TNA needs to be the fire under WWE's ass, and it is not going to happen with ratings. I do not work in television, I work on a farm , but I am positive anyone with a brain for this work can find creative and entertaining ways to get the WWE's attention. It does not have to consist of pricey contracts, scheduling, traveling to places where you do not draw that well, and it sure as hell isn't going to happen with Hulk Hogan.
I hope you guys see where I am going with this. I understand that WCW having a 2-3 hour nationally televised primetime program made a huge difference in keeping WWF/E in check, but TNA is gonna have to find its strength and individuality in other ways.

They cant beat them, but they can sure burn them.

Your such an idiot dude. WWE and TNA are two different companies that have nothing to do with each other. TNA should be making themselves better and putting out the best product they can and try new ideas (many will work many wont). There fan base will grow slowly but surely, WWE will continue to do what they do and so will ufc, bellator, kfc, McDonalds etc etc. How do you expect to be successful at anything if your watching what other people are doing? Case and point you are a d umb as s. TNA is now a recognizable wrestling brand and is one of the top two brands in the country...which has nothing to do with what WWE is doing.

Just looking at what is best for business (no pun intended), I think that TNA should stop trying to compete with the WWE by presenting a similar product. The situation in that company has the potential for something new and unique, something that would get the IWC buzzing with excitement and thus making wrestling interesting again.

WWE is the big dog, no other company even comes close. But all the other companies can create a buzz by having short, well-thought-out programs in which they work together. There is this rumor that AJ Styles will defend the TNA championship in other companies. Let him lose the championship in one of those other companies, like ROH. Then have Dixie play the role as the villain and invade ROH with a few wrestlers, setting up a 'winner takes all'-PPV. At the end of the PPV have the top-guys of both companies shake hands and go their own way.

The reality is that this will generate more viewers from TNA to ROH and vice versa. These are the fans that WANT a company to step up and grow, because like it or not, rivalry is better for business that monopoly (something Vince should know, considering the glory-days of wrestling (WCW vs. WWF)

But let's face the fact. This industry is run by ego's that only look out for their own success and do not have the best interest for the entire business in mind. TNA is no different, WWE is no different, even ROH is no different.

In the modern era of any kind of sport, you buy your way to the top. As much as I love TNA and I would love to see them compete with the WWE, it isn't going to happen anytime soon. They need the millions of a Ted Turner to get close. I hope it happens one day, but maybe, in the current situation, there could be a newer company that beats TNA to that prize...you never know

I honestly did not realize they had a banner reading "Impact Is War" dangling around their arena shows.
