TNA needs to get out of their own way and stop chasing WWE's shadow. Even WWE took over 3 decades to become WWE, and they need to quit convincing themselves they can re-create that in a year to 18 months. If they would have just kept all the things that had worked for them and scrapped what didn't as apposed to repeatedly hitting the reset button on the promotion, they could have been making decent noise for themselves by now.

WWE needs to stop losing interest in people in 6 months. If a noob don't hit megastar instantly anymore, WWE seems to treat them as if they're somehow a lost cause. Cena didn't become Cena overnight (neccessity at the time aside), The Rock didn't become The Rock overnight. Honestly, Hulkamania wasn't overnight. It took an investment in time from fans actually giving a shit about them- and part of that was because they were given a reason to in that time.

In both these things, TNA and WWE are kinda similar: impatience. They both want a quick fix for something that takes a lot more time than they seem to be willing to want to invest. For TNA, its their image as a company and for WWE it's that next crossover megastar.
