Wouldn't be surprised if something similar happens with Rey Mysterio in the near future since his schedule back with the WWE barely has any real time off for rest. |

They've got this idea that main events always need to be "epics." So many featured matches at big shows would have gotten so much more out of being shorter and simply went about achieving their goals (Jerry Lawler killing Michael Cole, Bret Hart killing Vince McMahon, etc.).
The Undertaker was dealing with an arthritic knee in 1999. |

Meltzer reporting on WO Radio that Lashley is injured, not sure if he'll take time off or needs to yet though

Dammit, Dwayne -- Jarrett used to spell his name out for you and you still get it wrong and say you're friends with the family.

WWE's tiered pricing system is basically them admitting that they can't get new Network subscribers and have to milk more money out of their current ones.

They really should have just used the Network for old PPVs and the occasional special. I guess NXT and the Takeovers and stuff too, but NXT would benefit from being on proper TV -- or they could pitch the Takeovers to other places.

They tried that model initially but while its great for launch, its not sustainable if you want to actually grow and maintain a healthy subscription base.
Even MLB and NFL realized their vast vaults mean nothing if your not constantly supplying new content since that is what people care for the most. Same with Netflix and their constant buying of new films and shows to keep up the interest for subscribers. |

If they uploaded some Capitol Wrestling footage I'd be up for it.

G1 Supercard is 6 months out. And now Cody comes out and says he's not working it?
I doubt ROH & NJPW haven't even thought about a card that far off let alone what the production setup is going to look like. He's got plenty of time to change his mind. |

Them suffering a sizeable drop was to be expected considering its happened to them before in the past but since they were already dealing with a tiny viewerbase, that drop ended up being magnified a lot more.
Their current tv deal with POP TV expires at the end of this year so not a lot of time left for them to gain back what they lost and then recoup their viewership losses from the past couple months. I'd still put them ahead of LU in terms of health considering El Rey is very weak as a national network in the US and they are about to take a major hit to their value once their Netflix deal expires mid-November. |

The writing is on the wall with TNA, I think. They moved them back for a reason. There is better stuff to put in that slot. They may have had a chance of surviving if they could retain their fanbase at the later time, but nope. They certainly won't be making money off their deal if they get offered a new one, and what is the appeal of TNA to other networks? <100,000 viewers? They have a history of being thrown off TV and being absolute pains to work with (say what you want about new management -- this is the legacy they have inherited).
Their parent company might try to keep them alive because of international TV deals and their presence on their app or whatever, but I'd be surprised if they end up with something better than POP given that they've scaled back their presence. |

To be fair, POP supposedly gave them no warning at all about the timeslot move and they only found out about it at the same time as everyone else. Not even WWE would be immune to that type of drop percentage-wise if they had little to no heads up.
Could see POP give them some slack like when Destination America did the same but yeah the writing is on the wall for their future on the network unless they can quickly recover from this drop and the gradual decline since the Summer. Dixie screwing up TNA/Impact's relationship with Spike TV keeps coming back to haunt them since they would have been in a much better place had she just sold them the ownership share they wanted and listened to their "No Russo" rule. |

That POP doesn't value them enough to tell them about the change speaks loads, honestly.
The Russo/Spike TV is still absolutely boggling. |

Daaaaaaamn. WWE signed Chelsea Green?
I hope she brought along the hot mess gimmick. That was fun at All In. |

Daniel Bryan not wanting to go to Saudi Arabia to wrestle for the WWE Title after going through all he went through is hilarious. Hope he never gets another title shot

I don’t blame Bryan for not wanting to shake hands with a murderer in order to get a title shot like a mark.

I would have Miz ambush him tonight or pretaped for Friday and have him wrestle and beat Styles. Have Styles get screwed out of his match at Survivor series, have Bryan beat the Miz at the RR and Styles win the RR so he can get his belt back.

The only other point I could possibly gather is that you think it's funny that they only offered him a title shot in Saudi Arabia, a place no one wants to travel to right now, and that it'd be even funnier if he never got a chance to headline again? Gtfo, Droford.

They'll fuck it up if they try book Becky as a cowardly heel against ronda. Should book it as badass face versus badass face.

If they really feel that way why the fuck are they booking Becky and Ronda for survivor series? They would've booked Nia for that match

TLC bouts being advertised currently are (surprisingly all RAW despite it being a dual-brand show):
