Disproved how? ratings are not going up, PPV buys are still almost non existant
they still do impact from crappy little arena's. The only thing that changed for the better in recent years is some fresh talent getting a push and spending money on touring. Everything else remains a mystery.
I don't think it's necessary to correct your plain ignorance, but I'll do it anyway.
1. Ratings are not going up. Good one, Columbus. Which wrestling show's ratings
are? There's a pattern here, one that you're too vague to notice. Let's see if you'll figure it out. I'll give you a hint. One word. Plateau. No, it doesn't mean "poop" in French.
2. PPV buys are obscure? You based this statement on ... what information exactly? The voices in your own head?
3. TNA toured in bigger arenas this year. It was a test run. This is called being cautious. Being careful. You always check the water before you go swimming. First we had the March 3rd show which was a success. Then they toured some more, learned a lot from that next move and drew their conclusions. Everything points to doing some more shows down the line, and if they too end up being fruitful then I suppose we'll see even more shows on the road.
What your simple mind can't get is the fact that TNA's got a really good deal with Universal. They have a home base. They have a place to run their shows whenever arenas are either no wanting them, they can't pay for it, or whatever other reason there may be. Going on the road full time is I am sure a
huge investment. I'd rather have them save their money, do some shows outside of the Impact Zone and some in the Impact Zone and be careful with what they spend, rather than start going for bigger venues, squatting over their deal with Universal and acting like big shots, just to give some random smark a boner. They'll do it when they're ready. Financially that is. Clearly this caution has allowed them to start projects outside of the US, to strike more TV deals and in other words expand globally. Now bad for a glorified indy company, is it.
The only thing that is a mystery is what the hell you'll bitch about in a year, seeing that TNA is improving, evolving and getting better with every passing month. I'm sure you'll find something, you can't spell your name but you sure as hell can scout for faults. At least you're good for something.
