To be fair, a mate who's seen a heck of alot of shows, said it's one of the best he's ever been too (the Cov one)

But not selling out the skydome is criminal if that's true, it's 3,500 seats FFS, thost international showdown shows (which were pretty much a TNA show with a few japs) sold out in days, TNA 'could' sell out venues like that, if they had proper advertising for them. But I didn't see one bit of advertising for the TNA show, and I'm the type of person they should be reaching out to. The showdown had TV ad's all over The Wrestling Channel, granted, that's harder now as TNA isn't on TWC (or Fight!, or whatever it's now called) but they can still use advertising with Bravo.

In another point, does anyone know how many viewers TNA draws on Bravo? That list of venues could be around 35,000 - 40,000 punters over those dates? Do TNA even get that many viewers over here?

I guess the one saving grace about the MEN is that I know they host smaller things there like Basketball and Ice Hockey and there's no way they sell out those, so I would assume that they would be going for just the lower tie, but IMO it's better to sell out a smaller place than work in a half empty arena
