Backstage News On Dixie Carter's Talent Meeting At TNA Impact Tapings
The good news is they're not going away. The bad news is...
The planned backstage meeting between TNA talent and Dixie Carter did not go down at Bound for Glory. Apparently, though, it did take place before Monday's Impact tapings.
PWInsider has reported that Billy Corgan was in attendance, but did not speak, as Dixie basically ran the meeting and revealed that she is still the majority owner. She let talent ask any questions they had on their minds, and let it be known there'd be "no retaliation" for it.
She did admit that they were having trouble putting together Bound for Glory and the upcoming set of tapings, but that there was never any plans for TNA to shut down entirely.
In some encouraging news for the talent and her employees, Dixie claimed she won't sell the company to WWE, or let them buy their tape library, which is likely the only thing they were really interested in. But she still didn't lay out a long-term plan for the direction of TNA, so the games that are being played will keep on going.
In a surprising move, she also admitted that there has been a power struggle between the owners. That's a bit of a shocking thing to say, as Billy Corgan was in the room, and the only other party (that we know of) who owns any interest in the company is Aroluxe Marketing.
Overall, she apparently helped ease some of the worry with the talent, but there are still so many unanswered questions that you can't help but wonder what exactly is going to happen with TNA in the coming months.
