Come on, let's be real here. It's not like TNA is going to air the footage and then TNA gets huge all of a sudden.
Its perception though.

If TNA can air this footage, and then it gets some people talking, who in turn tell their friends, they could have something. Plus, the way the whole thing went down, it sounds like WWE comes off really bad.

Some people would argue thats how Nitro surged so far ahead of WWE in 96. They used people who were seen as WWE talent invading the WCW show, and people got hooked. To their credit they had a run of really solid TV, which allowed them to maintain the audience, but the inital pop of Hall, Nash and then Hogan was enough to get eyeballs on the show and more importantly get people talking.

I dont think the same would happen, to the same degree anyway, with TNA, but even if they were to gain a few extra buys on their next PPV off of it, why should Vince allow the properties he built with his own money to be used to make another company more money?

I mean he's not obligated, nor should he be expected to keep TNA afloat, much less help them become successful. If anything he should be trying to stop them from getting off the ground. Which he may be doing with this action, but the fact of the matter is, the properties are his, and he shouldn't sit back and let someone do damage to them.
