Concluding Thoughts
Do I feel that TNA will eventually wrestle the majority of fans away from the WWE's monopoly? However unlikely it may seem, never say never. WCW with some ridiculous storylines and matches managed to maintain a lead over WWE with a few notable superstars and the excitement of their cruiserweight division. TNA, in my view, can and should be better than anything WCW ever produced, and over time it will become stronger and attract more and more fans as their tours become more far-reaching and sustainable. The goal of TNA must be to eventually take a chunk out of the audience of WWE, and it will certainly require some shock and awe tactics in order to do that. I do not write this article as a means of loathing WWE either - what I dislike as a wrestling fan is the stale and predictable storylines that come about due to the company having no competition to drive them forward. Pro wrestling hasn't been in a golden era since around 2002, and there needs to be a motivation in order to bring the massive numbers of fans back from the Attitude Era. Both companies could provide so much more if there was reason to do so, and the only way the glory days of wrestling will return is if TNA roll up their sleeves and start clawing away at any amount of fans they possibly can from the WWE stranglehold.
