9 Things To Expect With TNA's New Ownership

5. Streaming Options

One of the reasons the Fight Network wanted to land TNA was that they believed their library would be worth something. How much money it's worth is anyone’s guess, but it looks like they’re going to try and find out.

Among many of TNA’s big mistakes since its inception is that they’ve never figured out what to do with their vast tape library. They've been on TV or pay-per-view since 2002, and yet, you can't stream it anywhere as part of a subscription service. They are years behind where they should be in that regard.

Sure, you can buy some old episodes on Youtube to watch for a $.99, but not many fans are likely shelling out money for each individual event. Meanwhile, WWE’s Network has been quite profitable for them, so you would have thought TNA would have tried something similar (and cheaper) to make some money off the thousands of hours of content they’ve already developed. They've failed pretty spectacularly at this.

Lucky for them, the Fight Network has a lot of experience streaming sporting contests over the years, and can finally give TNA a home for fans to watch their content in an official capacity. It may take a lot of work to get things going, but it looked like TNA was never going to figure it out on their own, so they should at least make some money off a new revenue source at some point in the future.
