WWE in TNA dig

[Lee]

Vance Archer debuted on ECW on Syfy in November 2009, quickly making an impact in the Land of the Extreme. Before becoming an ECW Superstar, Archer was a quarterback at Texas State University. Later, he competed in several regional wrestling promotions in Texas and Florida and then Japan before finally being discovered and signed by ECW General Manager Tiffany.

Archer - along with Curt Hawkins - was given a "limited SmackDown contract" by General Manager Theodore Long. The contract called for the two Superstars to do one thing, "make an impact." And over the next few weeks, that's exactly what they did. Demanding the attention of the WWE Universe through several acts of squared circle chaos, Hawkins & Archer earned a full SmackDown contract, opening the floodgates to a future of unlimited possibilities.

It's no dig, it's true. Every promotion that is centralized in one area is regional.

 

[Rhonda Rousey's Sports Bra]

But TNA is a nationally televised company.

 

[Tiger Chaos Theory]

I suppose. I just don't find it that insulting.

 

[Rhonda Rousey's Sports Bra]

It would be a bit insulting being called a regional promotion when you consider yourself to be the number 2 company in the states.

 

[Lee]

It's like saying WCW was a regional company because they were mainly based in Atlanta

 

[Rhonda Rousey's Sports Bra]

Exactly.

TNA is a regional company with a national TV deal. In the territory days it was where your shows were that determined your region. Bill Watts out of Oklahoma had a national TV show but was regional. TNA is regional.

 

[Rhonda Rousey's Sports Bra]

These aren't the territory days though KB. Plus TNA has been all about trying to compete with WWE and then WWE calls them a regional promotion. A bit of an insult in my book.

 

[klunderbunker]

Yeah it's an insult. TNA is a regional company in a day where that's long since old fashioned.

 

[Rhonda Rousey's Sports Bra]

Just making sure you didn't think it wasn't an insult.

You forgot FCW where he's been for quite some time, and is definately regional and based in Florida.
