TNABaddboi 0 Report post Posted April 25, 2005 Chris Candido will be having (or already has had) a steel plate inserted in his ankle along with screws and pins. He had a complete dislocation of the ankle along with the breaks to his fibula and tibia. One doctor told Candido he could be back in the ring in six weeks, which means he could make it to the Hardcore Homecoming show in Philadelphia, PA but that sounds a little too good to be true. Hopefully he can make a full recovery as he's really dedicated himself to his comeback in recent months. More on Dixie Carter's Lockdown pre-show speech to the wrestlers last night: Carter specifically shot down negative reports on the Internet about the company's health and well being, telling the wrestlers that Panda remained 100% loyal to the company and to not believe "doom and gloom" reports that stated otherwise. Frank Dickerson has taken over the roles of Chief Operating Officer and Chief Executive Officer. Carter also noted that the TNA PPVs could be seen in over 50 countries as a sign of company growth.

syxx2001 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 Im sure someone will come in and give the mandatory "I give it 2 months before it sinks" post. And Chris Candido is gonna be back on the coca. Or get addicted to pain killers. A few weeks of not being able to walk around and have nothing to do but lines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fro 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 I don't know how much longer they can keep throwing money away, but it's pretty clear even Meltzer (while being right about how TV negotiations are going) has no idea how much longer Panda is willing to back TNA.

haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 It's truly a shame to think TNA could die. Theres no way any of the smaller guys like AJ Styles, Sabin, or Daniels would be allowed to perform to their potential in front of a bigger audience (WWE). You know they can't go out there and make Old-Man Taker look bad. TNA gave them a national stage to showcase their skills on. The best shot they would get would be on Velocity where it seems guys like London, Akio, and Nunzio are allowed to go balls-out, with little to no recognition, with the exception of London's current Cruiserweight tile run.
