>>14721276Just consistently retarded booking and decision making. The best example is Spike explicitly stating not to hire Russo, only to find out that Dixie was using him behind their backs for a while. And Spike, just as a reminder, was the only company willing to pick them up for having the name "TNA" which was chosen as a juvenile joke. Just indicative that there was always dumb shit going on. At least when Vince would booked something like shit, more often than not, he thought he was doing something that was better for business overall. Super Cena, for example, sold a fuckton of merch and tickets for live events.
People will say it was Hogan/Bischoff (even though the show was already going to shit before they were hired, and did some of their best business during that era), or some other specific smark bullshit, but the truth is TNA has generally always been incompetent. Even during TNA's golden era from 2004ish to the beginning of 2009, the company was wrought with retarded decision making. Bad creative, bad business.
