TNA getting ANOTHER hour on Monday?

[Xero]

From PWInsider:

In addition to moving to their new 8 p.m. start time this Monday night, TNA will debut a new show on Spike TV called "TNA Reaction". The press release for the show is included below.

Spike presents TNA Reaction, a never-before-seen look at the combustible world of TNA Wrestling with exclusive backstage access and candid interviews featuring the biggest names in wrestling. Fans will experience all the unseen drama as rivals speak openly about their plans to destroy their most hated foes. TNA superstars featured include Hulk Hogan, Kurt Angle, Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, and more.

TNA Reaction premieres this Monday night on SpikeTV at 7/6c, one hour before TNA Wrestling "iMPACT!" at the new start time of 8/7c

On Monday morning, fans can log onto Spike.com for a special preview of the new one-hour TNA Reaction broadcast!

Sounds like TNA is trying to be like WWE and trying to get there own channel

[kareru]

i take it that its going to be a kayfabe show.
sounds quite interesting

[dronepool]

I'm not home at 7pm on Mondays, but cool for them I guess...

[erickman]

good if they move all the interviews to that hour they can do all the wrestling the other 2 hours.

The only problem with that is its tna so it'll be more like 2 hours of interviews 30-45 minutes of actual wrestling and 10-20 minutes of incoherent rambling

[FearedSanctity]

They can get a interview show and a best of show, but not a second wrestling show?

WAT?

[sa]

I agree with FearedSanctity that they can get like any show but not a second wrestling show like impact on tv

TNA can barely handle writing one decent show [consistently]. You really want to have two shows of the same cluster and confusion? (I am a fan of TNA, for the record.)

[sa]

Yes i do want them to have 2 shows

[FearedSanctity]

Yeah I do, when the other option is having frequent clusterfucked Impacts. Part of the reason for fewer and shorter matches is due to limited time to tell stories. A second show would help alleviate that.

Not that the storylines themselves would improve, but it'd at least help to allow maybe more detail and better yet, more wrestling (hopefully) since there'd be more time for it.

[daimoniac]

personally, i think if this is used correctly it could be a way to bring new viewers up to date with the product. not too bad a move when you're looking to improve ratings.

rather than just stick a wrestling programme on midway through a bunch of stuff happening, if you've got a casual fan that's sat in on a monday night two hours before raw, a programme scheduled to start an hour before raw and it comes with a lead in that tells you whats going on - hey, at least he doesnt have to wade through links to sites with overly intrusive advertising from ryan clark or have to have been watching for the last 8 weeks to get up to speed and be able to enjoy the show.

when channel 5 over here started showing WCW worldwide over in the UK, for the first few weeks, they summarised storylines and showed matches (from nitro/thunder) and highlights of matches (from ppvs) that went back up to a year before the run began. if they hadn't i'd probably not have started watching it like i did.

Wouldn't a show called "TNA Reaction" be more fitting AFTER Impact?

[kareru]

i wonder if the death of dixie carter will ruin the shows proceedings

R.I.P

[Volare]

TNA going fake kayfabe....lets see how far it goes before this one bombs.

[kareru]

fake kayfabe?

my brain just melted

[Kane Knight]

Reacting to last week.

[erickman]

R.I.P

wrong dixie

[Joesgonnakillyou]

It sounds like a wrestling show without any wrestling. Brilliant. :nono:

[screech]

Yeah I do, when the other option is having frequent clusterfucked Impacts. Part of the reason for fewer and shorter matches is due to limited time to tell stories. A second show would help alleviate that.

Not that the storylines themselves would improve, but it'd at least help to allow maybe more detail and better yet, more wrestling (hopefully) since there'd be more time for it.

You would think that a second show would lead to longer matches and better storytelling, but from what I see with this creative team I just don't see that happening.

Even on three hour shows it's full of drawn out backstage segments and clusterfuck finishes. More time could lead to more/better wrestling, yes, but it could also lead to more of what we're used to seeing.

Before TNA can think about adding a second full show, it needs to work on improving the show already in place.

seems to work well for Raw!

[Xero]

Not so much for Impact.

[TNA&USA#1]

which is why they're changing it...

[Xero]

They ARE?

Coulda fooled me.

[TNA&USA#1]

That doesn't seem too difficult

preview of the show . looks half way decent

[Mr Amazing]

i will LMFAO if it gets a higher rating than impact

[Swiss Ultimate]

I'm giving TNA a chance tomorrow. Wish 'em the best of luck.

[Stealth-Icon]

They needed more time for Hogan and Nash to be on TV

[screech]

Can't forget Bischoff.
