Get the professional wrestlers back into a four sided ring :foc:
Don West & Mike Tenay are fired and I never want to hear their voices again.
Wipe the slate clean with a fresh start. That means tournaments to decide new champions for the World title, X Title and Tag Titles. Also means CLEAN finishes and no clusterfucks.
Only run 8 PPV's a year and drop the purchase price down to $25.
Keep the two hours of iMPACT! and do a live broadcast at least once a month.
Talent Pool should consist of these guys:
Abyss - AJ Styles - Alex Shelley - Awesome Kong - Black Machismo - Booker T - Chris Sabin - Christian Cage - Christopher Daniels - Gail Kim - Hernandez - Homicide - Jeff Jarrett - Johnny Devine - Kaz - Kevin Nash - Kurt Angle - Raven - Rhino - Robert Roode - Samoa Joe - Scott Steiner - Sting - Team 3D - Tomko - Traci Brooks
Also:
Throw lots of $$$$$$$$$$ at Rob Van Dam
These guys don't need to be on written contracts. Only book them for special appearences or when you need them as filler:
BG James - Black Reign - Christy Hemme - Elix Skipper - Eric Young - Jacqueline - James Mitchell - James Storm - Jim Cornette - Jimmy Rave - Judas Mesias - Karen Angle - Kip James - Lance Hoyt - Matt Morgan - Payton Banks - Petey Williams - Raisha Saeed - Rellik - Roxxi Laveaux - Shark Boy - Sharmell - Sonjay Dutt - SoCal Val
-----
The First iMPACT! show is your World title tournament and is LIVE!
The Second iMPACT! show is a Tag title tournamnet + setting up a feud for the new World Champion.
The Third iMPACT! show is an X Title tournament + proceed with World title feud & hype the Tag Champions.

!.) Vince Russo isn't that bad as friends have pointed out. He has decent ideas from time to time. So with that said, the booking team as a whole needs a revamp and creative control should be taken away from Kurt Angle.
2,) I don't think the ring matters TOO much (imo). It's really just something different. Honestly I couldn't care if they wrestled in the octigon as long if it's entertaining. However, if it's such a big problem to people, I would switch it back.
3.) Tenay and West SHOULD be fired...with actual fire involved.
4.) Wipe the slate clean? Why are we going to suggest ideas for change by mentioning passed mistakes. A sudden change like that does not help the titles or the company. I say you need to work with what you have and set the directions. Sudden changes are just the same crap WCW tried and failed with.
5.) Agree with PPVs. Maybe even go back to the ECW method of 1 PPV every 2 months (making it 6 a year). Though price might be a hard change depending on business conditions.
6.) Talent pools seems fine, but they don't fucking need RVD. I'm a big fan of RVD, and I don't think they need RVD. They also don't need to be throwing any more big cash offers to people. Sting and Angle's wrestling bills are enough.
