Open the Muggy Gate Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 I actually think this cancelling of the 11/30 show was a blessing in disguise. The way I see it, TNA was rushing this whole 11/30 show just because Hulk Hogan was on it. All gimmicks, storylines, etc. were being remade and pushed for this show. The question is, would TNA be ready for their biggest show ever in about a month and a half? My guess would probably be no. And on top of that, AJ might just keep the belt tonight!! That's a great blessing if that happens.
Guest Choken One Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 It's a set back in terms of proving TNA is incapable of pushing a WWE level product without any big names, proving they have zero confidence in their current roster. It might be a blessing in the fact it gives them more time to get things right...
eirejmcmahon Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 It certainly makes things interesting, right now I don't think that Hogan will be appearing for TNA till some point after Wrestlemania, which is obviously something of a setback for them.
Jack_Bauer Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 Well, I don't think this will do TNA any good, apart from keeping Hogan out of the picture.
Corey_Lazarus Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 I wish TNA would have gone ahead with the Bound For Glory show. Lower the price? Of course. Paying $30-$35 for a show by a promotion you've probably never heard of before is absurd. Hell, ECW only charged $20 or $25 for their shows, and they were the #3 company in America, with national and mainstream exposure. TNA has neither to the point that ECW had. Bound For Glory should have only been priced at $20, MAYBE $25, and that's it. Also, should they go "screw it" and go ahead with the PPV, advertising should go into full-steam-ahead, and they should market their product as "THE alternative to WWE."
Guest Ghettoman Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 Does anyone see the irony in the fact that whats considered "The future of pro wrestling" is having to conform to HULK HOGANS schedule? It does nothing but make TNA look like a b-rate WCW.
syxx2001 Posted October 22, 2003 Report Posted October 22, 2003 (edited) Their current roster barely gets them 25,000 buys a week. HOW IN THE FUCK will a Sunday PPV change that? And remember, the PPV was booked around the appearence of Hogan. Hogan was first, then the PPV, not vice versa. The PPV was created to show TV outlets and the world that they can get whoever they want to be on their shows if they can get Hogan. Edited October 23, 2003 by syxx2001
Michrome Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 Their current roster barely gets them 25,000 buys a week. They're not even close to 25k buys a week.
eirejmcmahon Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 (edited) Their current roster barely gets them 25,000 buys a week. Whoa, that figure's a lot higher than anything I've heard - where'd you get it from ? Edited October 23, 2003 by eirejmcmahon
Guest Choken One Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 Wasn't 25000 like the HIGHEST it got ever... I thought they were in the 10-15 market.
slimm44 Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 So when do you think it will be rescheduled to? Over the summer or November '04?
Guest Choken One Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 They should just do it like May...
eirejmcmahon Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 If they want to hold if before the summer, they're going to need to find a new headline act - isn't the Macho Man available ?
eirejmcmahon Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 Till Vince McMahon signs him back.
