syxx2001 0 Report post Posted May 26, 2003 This from Peter Kent from 411mania.com And if you're going to do it, you may want to do it soon. Rumor has it that the one year anniversary show may be the LAST TNA show, period. The NWA has a one year contract with the PPV networks, and supposedly the networks may not want to continue airing TNA. The PWTorch crew seems to enjoy pointing out that TNA is losing money every week. This is all INTERNET NEWZZZ, so who knows. Is tis twue? No more Amazing Wed on Wednesday nights? No more Twiple X?

Guest NoSelfWorth Report post Posted May 26, 2003 Well it was no secret that if the Panda deal hadn't come through, Jerry Jarrett was going to close NWA:TNA down. Even with Panda involved, it doesn't seem that any extra money is coming in, and it would seem that DirecTV are sick of losing money every week. NWA:TNA's one real hope for survival was to get a national tv deal, and without that, it looks like the end is near for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest NoSelfWorth Report post Posted May 26, 2003 Are there any hard figures at all available for the kind of buyrates that they've done/are doing ? That's a funny question actually. When TNA first started, they said that, by contract, they wouldn't get any final numbers for a year. As the SEX storyline unfolded though, TNA kept saying how it had increased the buy rates, both as part of the show and in interviews given to various people, and yet the PPV companies couldn't give any definite numbers. So either TNA are lying, the PPV companies are lying, or they both are. And the only reason there would be for them BOTH to lie, is if the buy rates are so embarrassing, they don't want to acknowledge them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
syxx2001 0 Report post Posted May 26, 2003 they probably have buyrates, but not like "we had 8,039" people order last week. more like "4500-9000" order last week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
