The State of TNA IMPACT Wrestling ( The Address ) (04/05/2016)


Despite all the haters that ruin Pro Wrestling, TNA IMPACT has survived yet another year and is on the right road to success. With the positions of the now former TNA wrestlers Bobby Roode, Kurt Angle, Eric Young and Velvet Sky, It has given the new faces of Eli Drake, Jade, Sienna, The Wolves, Tigre Uno, Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett, The Bro-Mans, Bram, Drew Galloway, Mike Bennett, The Tribunal and Ethan Carter the chance to prove they are indeed the bright future that TNA needs.

While its being named as the TNA exodus, With nearly all the company's big established names leaving for other companies, It should be seen as a new generation of stars being created, Something that the WWE has failed to do for over a decade now. Infact, WWE are now hiring TNA's former stars left right and centre now which goes to prove that TNA is on WWE's radar and they are keeping their eye on them, Something that many people say is nonsense.

With the news that TNA are looking for investors and that there is plenty of interest, TNA looks to be having the perfect rebrand that they began in the new year with the move to POP TV in the States, And in the UK on Challenge TV the TNA Brand continues to be as strong as ever with continuous viewership every week, And not to mention the other Countries that include Canada, Australia, Brazil, Chad, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Nigeria, Sudan, Uganda, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Israel, Italy, Poland, Portugal and the United Kingdom.

While TNA has separated with some of the biggest names, It still has a great line up of legendary names to lead the charge, Names including the Destroyer Lashley, Gail Kim, Madison Rayne, Gregory Shane Helms who is rebranding the X Division, Maria Kanellis Bennett who is rebranding the Knockouts division, And of course both of the Legendary Hardy Brothers, Matt and Jeff, Along with the old school Al Snow, Who has started a new partnership with TNA and his school of pro wrestling in the United Kingdom, Which features big names such as Johnny Storm, Alpha Female, Bad Bones, Joe E Legend, Doug Williams, Phil Powers, John Klinger, and many more names of the wrestling world.

With all this good news, TNA looks to be having the best of restarts, And will look to continue with the success in the following years to come.One other thing that seems to be a vocal point for the haters is Dixie Carter wanting to keep half of the business of TNA, And with good reason. She is passionate about Pro Wrestling and Passionate about TNA, Which is good to hear when you see how the owners of Ring of Honor couldn't care less if their company gets squashed by the WWE or gets sold the very next day..
