WWE Back Negotiating With TNA; Where Does Everything Stand Right Now?
On last night’s Wrestling Observer Radio for F4WOnline subscribers,there was also a passing reference by Dave Meltzer to WWE being “back in the picture” as far as buying the company. As had been stressed in the past, he noted that this would mean that TNA would be shutting down, as WWE would only be interested in the video library. There’s still nothing known about who fronted the money for this week’s TNA shows other than that the funds did not come from Billy Corgan.
Meanwhile, In spite of TNA talent being told that all of the rumors about the status of the company would be addressed at a talent meeting on Sunday before the Bound For Glory pay-per-view, PWInsider is reporting (note: NSFW ads) that such a meeting never took place. There was not even a sign of if the issues at hand will be discussed at any point in the near future. If TNA can still make payroll, though, then the company should have no hiccups for the next three months, as the plan is to try to tape enough shows this week to last them through the end of the year.
Meltzer’s information about how much time the tapings will cover did not go quite as far, saying that they’ll cover through late November or early December. Technically speaking, it’s possible that both could be right, with TNA running year in review shows for the last couple weeks of December as they have in the past, since that wouldn’t require taping original TV through the December 29th episode of Impact.
