– TNA told some talent for the first time this past week about the proposed India tour and were given the dates of 11/29 to 12/5. Talents were told to keep those dates open.
– The final new full episode of Impact that was taped will air on September 30th, After that, TNA will have to put together makeshift shows from there until 2016.
– TNA live events returned last weekend and did not draw very good crowds. There has been talk within TNA for sometime now of a name change as it would appear they would probably do a lot better without the TNA name to improve their image.

Am I the only one who thinks this is just... death. You do Bound for Glory and then not follow up on it for THREE MONTHS?! The moment they knew Destination America was going to leave them on, they should have started organizing post-BFG tapings. I don't care if you have to tape that first episode on a Tuesday night, but you NEED to have new TV going on.

i think it does, or likely will lead to it. I understood that the india shows were going to be tapigns (terrible idea IMO), but even then, that means you have no content for October and November. I hate to say it, but Bound for Glory should be booked as a showcase goodbye show, no storylines, just a showcase of what made TNA great once and then fulfill your obligations with leftover xplosion matches. I'm tired of seeing them fail and tired of the hate.

I'm thinking this is likely what the 2016 UK tour will wind up being. That being said, a lot of what made TNA great isn't quite accessible to TNA at the moment. AJ is under contract to New Japan. Joe, Christian, the James Gang, Ron Killings, Sarita, and the Dudleys are all under contract to WWE. They can't bring back Jarrett. I don't believe Kaz and Daniels are under contract to ROH, but I'm not sure. Lethal is under contract to ROH. I doubt Rhino would want to jeopardize his spot in WWE by taking a TNA booking. Konnan hates their guts and is under contract to LU. They won't work with Hernandez.
Whose left? You could probably bring in Sabin and Petey, and maybe convince Aries to come back, but that's about it. Oh. And Raven would probably do it for the payday. And Chris Harris is still out there, somewhere.

i'm not saying do a nostalgia show, but make a show that features each division with good amount of time per match
Tigre vs Zema vs TJ P vs Mandrews
Kong vs Kim
Beer Money vs Wolves
Abyss in a monsters ball vs Hardy
Angle vs Lashely
ECIII vs Galloway
