10 Big Changes To Make TNA Great Again

10. Banish The Perpetrators

First and foremost, Billy Corgan’s first course of action shouldn’t just be to remove the people that got TNA into this mess in the first place, but make sure they never come back. Dixie Carter cannot be allowed to retain a role with the company after selling her shares. It is her short-termism, lack of wrestling nous, and willingness to hand the keys to figures like Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff that has ground TNA’s reputation to dust, and her influence must be completely eliminated.

Furthermore, figures like Hogan, Bischoff, and Vince Russo must never be allowed to return. It’s likely that Corgan, who has only been in the business for five years, will look to bring in some experienced industry leaders to aid his operations, but the aforementioned names shouldn’t be among them. Though Carter empowered them, their creative mistakes played a huge role in TNA’s downfall, and if they come back, there’s always a chance of history repeating.

Then there are names like Bob Ryder and John Gaburick, whose negative impact is hard to gauge as an outsider, but whose names are always brought up negatively when former talents leave the company.

If Corgan’s serious about rebuilding TNA, he must start by removing the poison and bringing in a team he can trust. The root of TNA’s problems starts with the leadership, and if he doesn’t address this, nothing can ever change.
