TNA - Out of the red

[Dave Youell]

Interesting article in the Dallas News about TNA/CEO Dixie Carter on the 27th Sept. Amongst other things, she says that:

"The Carters bought the company in 2002 for about $250,000 because HealthSouth wanted to boot TNA off its books. At the time, TNA was bringing in more than that every month in pay-per-view. "

"Given the confluence of merchandise, Spike TV, pay-per-view, an upcoming deal for video games and growing international interest, TNA will be at break-even next month. Father and daughter expect to see some return on Mr. Carter's considerable investment early next year. "After that," he says, "the upside is tremendous." "
