10 Things WWE Can Do With TNA

TNA’s death has been a long time coming. The company has resembled WCW’s dying days for far too long, and its financial woes now seem insurmountable. The ongoing Corgan/Carter legal struggle will likely drag itself out to a messy conclusion, and it seems highly unlikely that they’ll ever make peace. The debt is spiralling out of control, the creditors are tightening their grip, and the end finally seems nigh.

Given all this, it's entirely possible that WWE will swoop in, strip TNA’s remaining assets, and employ a scorched earth policy on all that remains. They may decide that TNA’s reputation is too damaged for the brand to ever be repaired, and that the best course of action is to just burn the place down.

This would be a huge disappointment to wrestlers like Aron Rex, who’ve found full-time employment with TNA after being discarded by WWE. Similarly, WWE could’ve picked-up former indie workers like Braxton Sutter, Mike Bennett, and Moose at any point over the past few years if they’d wanted to. They chose not to, however, suggesting they have little use for any of them on Raw, SmackDown, or NXT.

The Pop TV contract is completely useless for WWE, and they already have existing deals in the UK and India (TNA’s next biggest markets). TNA’s back office is full of staff who’ve worked with WWE before, and “Impact Wrestling”, as a brand, has becoming synonymous with hopelessness and failure.

If WWE acquire the rights, there’s a massive chance they take the cold-hearted route and immediately send TNA to the abyss, ending this farce.
