Top 10 Reasons Why TNA Will Fail to Equal or Overtake WWE in TV Ratings, Relevance, Popularity, and Profit?
Question by The Truth [T]: Top 10 Reasons Why TNA Will Fail to Equal or Overtake WWE in TV Ratings, Relevance, Popularity, and Profit?
10. TNA- the place where wrestlers go when Vince McMahon fires them: TNA originally was a refreshing alternative which tried to focus on high-flying, fast paced modern pro wrestling, with a good mix of B-List veterans or well-known NWA, AWA, and WWF retired wrestlers with on-screen roles. Although TNA still has young guns, the rest of the roster is made of of former WWE workers who should have retired years ago. Instead they hog the main events and interview times.
9. Bad PPVs- I guess people have expendable incomes. Originally, TNA’s business plan was a pay per view every week for $ 10, but now they are back at $ 30 monthlies. If the PPVs were hot, like Ring of Honor (the 3rd “major” U.S. wrestling promotion) events that are sold on DVDs, that’s another story. But TNA PPVs have a reputation for having boring angle segments with the booking team, NO-SHOWS, and a 6-man tag team main event featuring old guys.
8. Copying the ghost of WCW- Anyone in the pro wrestling industry should have read the Death of WCW by now. It’s a week by week analysis of everything WCW did wrong with their company. WCW had over $ 50 million dollars in profit one year, and then wound up losing money the next year. TNA seems to be copying “How Not to Run a Wrestling Company”. In fact, they hired the SAME CAST OF CHARACTERS that killed WCW.
7.Orlando- It’s hard to look good on TV, when you have the same screaming retards every week chanting “this is awesome”.
6. Bad storylines- They don’t make sense. They push older guys who have no in-ring skill anymore. No one likes them except the front office. There is a huge disconnect with fans and management. TNA tries to copy WWE and the late WCW instead of creating an identify of its own.
5. Jeff Jarrett- Let’s face it, he only became a regional star because of his dad, Jerry. He’s Vice-President now, and out of touch with the modern fan base. He finally jobs when he wrestles now and then, but TNA was definitely “Jeff Jarrett’s league” when it first started. Now that Dixie Carter bought it over, Jarrett’s power has decreased.
4. Vince Russo- The Long Island native that makes Michael Savage look sane and rational. He’s a script writer on a power trip. Truly, truly an egotistical little man, who has had a number of books written about his actual role in the WWE Attitude era and the downfall of WCW.
3. Kevin Nash- One of the worst bookers of all time, and one of the worst in-ring workers of all time. This Enneagram Type 7 believes he is a master strategists and intelligent, but his IQ is probably around 70. So what does TNA do? He tries to wrestle when his legs hold him up, collects checks from his home in Florida, and, oh, he books.
2. Eric Bischoff- ’nuff said
1. Hulk Hogan- He hasn’t had a good match since……uhm….probably 1992. He has shown he has no skill for booking matches and creating storylines. His ego is larger than the sun. His salary demands are sick. He can’t tell the truth. He brings “his boys” in. When it comes to manipulation and backstage politics, HHH looks like an amateur.
lol, now go and cry TNA fanboys, cause you KNOW all of that’s TRUE
