Petition to get TNA broadcasted in Canada

[Guest BloodRiotZero]

The recent petition started online by Tim Stein has been doing extremely well as he tries to get TNA Broadcasted Internationally. His goal is to reach 1000 signatures or more to send to all the major cable and television companies in Canada in an effort to help TNA become WWE's alternative, which in turn will help the wrestling business in general.

 

The petition already has over 600 signatures just in the last couple of days, but they still need more. To sign the petition, copy and paste the following url into your browser:

After reading his column and ideas for this petition, there is a place at the bottom to post comments. Click on that, put your name, email, and put "I Want TNA!" in the Comments field. That is all you have to do to sign. To visit the page where you sign the petition, copy and paste the following url:

The ppv is already airing weekly in Canada. Do they mean Xplosion?

[Guest Ghettoman]

I think they should work on putting together a product that merits being broadcast internationally before the petitions start popping up.....

Well, it better hurry and make it to the UK !

I agree

I think you should probably watch the product before you decide it is unfit for broadcast, Mr. 1 Inch Punch. I have seen you admit elsewhere that you only know the product from downloads, and do not watch the show.

 

Perhaps you should watch an entire month of shows before you are so quick to pass your opinion? For example, there was a X Division Tag Team Match this past week I really enjoyed. I think Canadian fans would enjoy that type of action.

 

I am from Toronto, and have seen every PPV show since December 2002. I would like to see Xplosion shown here, to introduce Canadian fans to the product. "Legend" is a local wrestler, as is "Showtime" Eric Young.

 

With household names such as Hogan and Piper coming on board, and international stars such as Tiger Mask making appearances, now seem to be a smart time to expand, in my opinion.

Here in Alberta, we do get TNA on PPV.

[The Thread Killer 0]

Yes, Viewers Choice Canada and Bell Express Vu do carry the weekly PPV, the petition is to get Xplosion syndicated up here on free television.

Yes because any product with Hogan and Piper on it deserves to be seen around the world.

 

The product the WWE's putting out right now barely merits the exposure it gets, how TNA, a clearly lesser product at the moment(sorry, one sloppy yet fun Xdiv match doesn't make it any better) merits the same is a case I don't even want to here attempted.

 

Seriously, wait until they have a chance at competiting before talking about how they should be broadcast in other countries. Call me crazy but AJ Styles, Dusty Rhodes, Hulk Hogan and Jeff Jarrett aren't exactly the names I want representing whats gonna be considered "the future of wrestling".

 

And no, I haven't bought a show in weeks, because it's not worth it. I've watched tapes a few weeks later and have kept up with the booking through reports, which is more than enough to know they don't deserve any kind of major deal thats gonn put them in the spotlight.

"I don't even want to here attempted."

 

 

"Boston doesn't suck, but there no Yankees."

 

You'll have to forgive me if I can't take the opinion of a person who has no grasp of basic grammar or contractions seriously.

 

I guess you could say I don't even want to HEAR what THEY'RE trying to say.

[Guest Ghettoman]

Yes because I'm sure it's really hard to tell what I was saying, next time I should spend more time accomodating spelling nazi's who use what they can to not actually discuss a topic or debate a point.

 

You'll just love my use of your.....

Its gonna take a while for NWA TNA to reach Canadian television. Its just been syndicated in the states and there is the Canadian content standards...(60% of all television in Canada must be Canadian).

Ah.

 

First you prove that you are either lazy, or of substandard intelligence. If it is so easy to tell what you are trying to say, then is it not also easy to say it correctly, and not come off looking like a rube?

 

Now you use the term "nazi" to describe me for correcting you. You sir, are a class act.

 

Every single time you post you prove what an intelligent person you really are.

I personally do not like TNA's product so I wouldn't care if XPlosion aired here or not.

 

It aired all summer and I only caught one episode. Watching squash matches doesn't appeal to me.

[Guest Ghettoman]

If your the standard of intelligence around here than up must also be down, so I'll take the 'substandard'......

 

And anytime you want to focus on a point I made rather than a spelling mistake, I'd love to debate the topic with you. At the moment I can't help feeling like your doing all you can to not actually touch on anything else I've said..... If your only purpose with me now is my use of the english language, than may I suggest finding a new, more challenging hobby other than pointing out spelling mistakes.

Same here. I liked TNA's product in the beginning because it was more wrestling orientated, but now the shows are terrible. I couldn't stand a lot of the stuff, like the security guard garbage.

[The Ghost of bps21 0]

Yes...that 5 minutes out of two hours they spend on it (despite being a good angle...just with bad wrestlers) clearly makes TNA worse now than when Cheeks was running things and Ken Shamrock was main eventing.

[Astro101 0]

On Empire Sports Network, you can watch Xplosion followed by IWA. Nice two hours of wrestling right there.

[The Ghost of bps21 0]

That's what I do. I reviewed Xplosion already and am halfway through this weeks IWA.
