That's right around the time their TV deal ends. I don't know if they're connected, but that looks bad on the surface.

Assuming this is all related, how badly must TNA be doing if they can't even run house shows without a TV deal? That's the most basic thing for a wrestling company.

That doesn't sound too encouraging

Great way to make new fans.

"Hey, Timmy, did you see TNA Impact Wrestling is coming to town?"
"Shit, really? Is it like WWE?"
"Uh... yeah."
"Cool! Let's go!"
"Sure, let me check when it- ah, balls, they cancelled."

TNA is playing S&M with my heart. I'm not that kinda gal.

No one said they are giving up house shows for good. As far as I can tell, two dates were dropped.

I'm interested to know what the "scheduling conflict" was.

I will admit I went straight to the worst case scenario, but those two pieces of news coming out around the same time does not paint a good picture.

Yet they've just announced their UK tour.

I'm interested to know what the "scheduling conflict" was.

According to pwinsider they're going back to tape in NYC sometime in September so that could be the "scheduling conflict"

 

[The Dragon Saga]

I'm sure all 50 people who purchased tickets will be very disappointed they don't get to see Bobby Lashley tear the house down in the main event.

By scheduling conflict they meant spent all Dixie's allowance for the month.
