"HAHAHA good old Spike"

Apparently a commercial for TNA !mpact aired during RAW this week on Spike TV, who are obviously already starting to promote TNA before their deal with WWE ends.

I think it's great not only does it annoy Vince which always makes me smile but it might get people interested in TNA and help them in the ratings.

No need to worry though, I give him 2 matches before his leg falls off...

And with that, Kevin Nash makes his big return to TNA at Bound for Glory in October (sadly the rumours suggest this is no lie, though in many senses it is an absolute joke)

TNA is currently owned by Panda Energy, a maker of sports drinks in the States. The company is reportedly turning aprofit for the first time in it's history and they are about to embark on a big new TV deal...

I can't see them being too keen to sell until they have at least made all the money back which they invested in TNA's fledgling years, which won't be for some time yet, as long as they remain profitable.

I suppose much of whether they remain profitable will depend on whether tyhey stick with their current (excellent) roster or decided to bring back the over-piad, over-hyped past-it bunch...

I wonder if TNA does well on the Saturday time slot whether they'll think of moving it to Mondays :-D

Tis so gay - I have crappy NTL and TNA are on the rise.

Bah.

Thats good, i am looking forward to TNA being as big as WWE.

I think someone said it before in another thread, as long as Vince doesnt buy them out and ruin them.

No, the contract is between SKY Sports and the WWE, not Spike. So whateer happens in the states we'll keep getting it.

TNA have a contract with TWC in the UK. It's certainly a possibility that they could look to go elsewhere once that contract is up. I would imagine they'll go to the highest bidder.

Considering that most people who work for Sky Sports probably won't have heard of TNA yet, it'll probably be on TWC for the foreseeable future.

Will WWE losing its thing with Spike TV affect us getting it in the UK?

I am thinking it wont but i am wrong on a lot of stuff :S

Also, will TNA stay on TWC or will Sky Sports snap it up?
