Bad news has just broke for fans of TNA in the UK area. "The Wrestling Channel" in the UK has just announced they are dropping TNA programming on their station. The following was posted on their official website. (http://www.thewrestlingchannel.tv/)
"We have been unable, as yet, to agree new terms on the carriage of the TNA shows from early December. We have had constant comments from viewers on the nature of the delayed feed, and agree with the fans that this is an unacceptable delay, given that WWE is on a considerably shorter time lag on Sky Channels. As such, we will not be broadcasting TNA in the future until we can agree new terms which gives the fans a better deal. Dec 8th will be the last "first-run" episode."
In addition to this there are now rumors making the rounds that Panda Energy, TNA's financial backer, have pulled the plug on the promotion. No official reports are backing this rumor and I personally haven't heard any truth to the rumor, but it's certainly possible. The rumor goes that TNA have been given 90 days to find a new backer or else. Bob Carter is rumored to be willing to sell his stock of TNA to anyone who is willing to buy it.
We'll have more news on these stories as we get them.

Damn shame but I agree with TWC...the 6 month delay is bull****.

As long as GAEA keeps getting shown i'm happy :-D
Bah. Hopefully they'll agree on a new deal. I liked TNA. :(
Shame TWC was so disgustingly out of date...
It does seem like TNA want a bit of money out of this and TWC was never going to front up.
Also, Panda Energy - pulling the plug. Nice... :)

Not really, as I'd rtaher watch 6 month old TNA, than the current product before it got over-run by the likes of Hall, Nash and Jarrett...

TNA's actually been pretty good lately. The name of their faction is cringe-worthy, though - The Kings of Wrestling.
