Update regarding TNA's roster once again found out about TNA's money problems and mysterious new investor because of the sheets and not because management told them anything.

Also seems like instead of having enough money to last for the rest of the year, TNA only got enough money to last till the end of November.

The good thing for TNA as far as imminent issues, after taping this week, they are seemingly okay until at least the end of November.

As for the #BROKEN stuff getting more over than Roman, it's simple: it got over on its own terms.

People who are fans of it, legitimate or ironically, bought into it completely in all of its hokey pleasure. It is what it is. Meanwhile, Roman is hand-picked to be in the mold of a highly marketable superstar, and it is super obvious that he's hand-picked to be in the mold of a superstar, but the majority of the fans aren't buying into it whatsoever.

Goes back to my "franchise quarterback" analogy I made about something else (though I can't remember what). Matt is that QB who has been around the league, rode pine behind several starters, including his brother, then found his squad to become the leader of by doing his own thing with no pressure behind. Didn't happen overnight. Reigns was groomed from day one* to specifically pick up the mantle from Cena; and anything else in the world be damned. Ask Tim Tebow how well that works.

Matt developed this character. Developed this character. Developed character. Developed. Character. Developed this character; a persona OF a persona. Changed the perception of his brother from attention hog into his lackey/heavy, incorporated his wife, his son, his "gardener", a drone, and A GODDAMN BOAT into a mythos that has taken a life of its own. Add in the Sharknado level of camp and production value to their backstage stuff specifically that it's better/worse that Lucha Underground at the same time. All of this clicks. Especially with developed characters.

Then there's Roman. He's "The Guy" don't you know. Bray hated him for reasons. He barely survived a Lesnar onslaught... aaaaand... uhhh... he was a dick to Rusev and his wife...? So, in about two years, he went from silent heavy to... a dick? And not a dick in any memorable, despicable, or redeeming way. Just a dick.

And he wears a chest protector. Not as well as D'Lo, who made an angle out of it. Hell, D'Lo had more character in midcard hell (chest protector frog splashes *maybe* should be banned, Euro-Continental Champion, cocky head bobble/smirk, was Mark Henry's friend to help him "get in shape") than this guy we are supposed to just fellate as a main event level talent. I literally just remembered more about D'Lo did as a character than this dude that WWE currently wants to be their figurehad. That's a problem.

The Roman Empire is what WWE thinks fans want. #BROKEN is what fans want. I mean that more figuratively than literally.

Spoiler from the TV tapings that weren't supposed to happen. New Champion. Good for him, he deserves it. The sell out crowd looks pumped. Can't believe they let all the fans into the ring like that.

Real weird they just let a dude in with just his tighty whiteys on though.

Also, Broken is not more over than Roman Reigns. Less than 10% of the WWE's audience watches Impact each week. I wonder how many people even know that Matt Hardy is still wrestling? I've been completely disengaged by the WWE product recently, but even I'm not going to go that far.

TNA is like a cult. Even Jim Jones was over within his cult.

Even TNA's World Champion is looking to jump ship. Bobby Lashley was on JR's podcast and, despite being the one to walk away from WWE, said that he's super-keen on a return and the ball is completely in WWE's court.

Carter, we are told, acknowledged that WWE did want to purchase but stated that she would not let that happen, although she could have. Carter also stated that the company still owns their own tape library in regard to rumors that WWE was purchasing that.

Carter made it clear that she is still the majority owner of TNA but acknowledged there has been some in-fighting and a power struggle amongst the other owners of the company.

In regard to the financial issues leading into Bound for Glory, Carter said that the show was never not going to happen but acknowledged that they "scrambled" leading up to the PPV.
Assuming the stuff Dixie said is true, WWE's not coming back with an offer till TNA is actually dead/bankrupt. Also she might have accidentally confirmed the rumors of her and/or John Gaburick sabotaging Corgan's efforts to buy the company.

How wonder how much of her assets she had to liquidate to prop up the company until the end of the year. She goes down with the company financially she will have earned it. I would imagine she could have negotiated the debt into part of the purchase and come out of it relatively solvent

Probably no less than 20% if that happened since she's still the majority owner and Corgan only owns around 30%.

Oh shit, Tito Ortiz and his two brothers are coming to Impact next month.

It's either that or the cast of Jersey Shore if history is anything to go by.

I guess if we're really going by history, it could be six midgets pretending to be three regular sized people, any one of which may have a gun.

That's probably a spoiler I guess, but I don't feel like "TNA has some dudes show up with their identity hidden only to be revealed and be disappointing later" is a surprise any more.

That photo could be from the past ten years.

OH SHIT. It's probably the ninjas that kidnapped Samoa Joe!

NXT INVASION CONFIRMED. The ninjas brainwashed Joe to come back and spin his wheels for five years before leaving to go to infiltrate another company and bring them back to take over TNA! VINCE RUSSO HAD A PLAN ALL ALONG!

SPOILER: show
Not really. It's Rob Kardashian, the Bellator Lightheavyweight Champion, and Paulie Shore'a cousin

Just got a text saying #WWE to buy TNA video library & Billy Corgan is going to be new majority owner of TNA that he'll likely rebrand. Wow!

Find it hilarious that even now, with WWE looking like they'll buy the tape library, TNA as a company might still be soldiering on.

They will never die.

Dixie is keeping the company afloat with money from WWE buying the tape library.

Probably got MEEKMAHAN to put up money for BFG and tapings in advance with said money going towards whatever amount Vince ends up paying for the tapes. He basically put the tape library on layaway at Dixie-mart. Also gives WWE a several month window to see how the roster split is working and decide what talent from TNA they will try to poach when they go under a few months now.

If Corgan is rebranding, I wouldn't be shocked if WWE get the trademarks as well as the library. Would mean that anything TNA would be WWE's and the new name going forward would be owned by Corgan's company.
