I definitely think that things will start to turn around for TNA.

One thing they need to do is be consistent. You're not going to see a huge ratings jump in one week without the advertised addition of somebody like Stone Cold Steve Austin or The Rock.

Here are the reasons I feel this will eventually pay off...

1. They're putting guys like AJ Styles and Samoa Joe in the spotlight. These guys can put on a good show inside the ring and when more and more people see that, TNA will start to develop a larger fan base.

2. The Main Event Mafia is a great way to group some of wrestling's top names together at the same time. Most of the people I talk to at work don't even know what TNA is. When I say that they have Booker T, Kurt Angle, and Sting; they start to take an interest. When these men are seen together in the ring it adds a certain element that draws interest to the company.

3. Mick Foley in the driver's seat... good idea. Mick Foley is entertaining to watch and the majority of wrestling fans respect him and everything he did for the company.

4. Because Vince McMahon is such an egotistical asshole and hard to get along with, more and more people will jump to TNA. Think of it like working at McDonalds and then Burger King opens across the street. Your manager is an asshole, and then one person quits and goes to Burger King. Then, 2 more people quit and do the same. Now you have 3 former employees who still talk to everyone at McDonalds talking about how it's a better environment at Burger King. Then another quits, then another. Pretty soon the only people left working for McDonalds are the few kiss asses who feel they owe something to the manager.
