>>16761040the partnership alone isn't going to get TNA back to #2. i think for TNA to realistically dethrone AEW and get back to where it was, it needs to be on a real tv channel.
impact is by far the most popular show on AXS but it still gets no more than like 50k viewers and that's REALLY generous. that's terrible. how does that network even stay afloat? they need to can the whole network and get TNA on an actual channel that people actually have.
the deal might actually end up hurting TNA's chances of getting back there because it does somewhat position the promotion as an official feeder to WWE. it's just developmental now, any stars they might be building will jump ship to the fed even earlier than they would have been able to before.
