TNABaddboi 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2006 Here's their official press release: TNA WRESTLING ANNOUNCES NEW ONLINE VIDEO SHOW “Global Impact” Weekly Webcast To Debut Wednesday, May 3 TNA Wrestling is proud to announce that on Wednesday, May 3, 2006, fans can log onto TNAwrestling.com to watch the premiere of our official online video show “ Global Impact!” Hosted by former “WCW Live!” and current “iMPACT!” broadcast personality Jeremy Borash, the online show will feature exclusive footage, interviews, news updates, matches and so much more! The weekly half-hour program will be free-of-charge and can be accessed via TNAwrestling.com or YouTube.com. The “Global Impact” show comes as a result of a new partnership between TNA Wrestling and YouTube.com, the popular online video service. TNA is now an exclusive content provider for YouTube.com. “The webshow is a major addition to TNAwrestling.com, which continues to expand in terms of new features and record visitors each month,” said website manager Bill Banks, who previously launched the former WWE “Byte This” and WCW “Reload” video shows during his tenure with both promotions. “Now, any wrestling fan in any country will be able to watch TNA programming with the click of their mouse.” The “Global Impact” online show is the latest major addition to the TNAwrestling.com website, which features daily news, articles, photos, video and more dedicated to Total Nonstop Action wrestling. The Wednesday, May 3rd premiere of “Global Impact” will include a sneak peek at the upcoming TNA Knockouts DVD, footage from the TNA stars in Australia, an update on the World X Cup, exclusive “iMPACT!” footage plus news on the TNA “Sacrifice” Pay-Per-View event on Sunday, May 14! Might this eventually be TNA's 2nd hour of airtime? I think it makes more sense to put Xplosion online (like they did with Impact before Spike) than do a recap show, but still, I think this is a good short term move for them. Thoughts?

JHawk 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2006 I like how they realize how popular YouTube has gotten and they're actually using that to their advantage by posting the shows there as well. I'd like this better with exclusive matches and stuff on it, but it's certainly a step in the right direction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
