8 Wrestlers That Visibly Hated Working For TNA
1. The Whole Roster
Well, wouldn't you visibly hate it if you were a wrestler, your boss was shoot bollocking you into total surrender to a flawed vision, having the bollocking (and your reactions to the bollocking) filmed for air, and then asking you to drop right back into your kayfabe storylines as of you hadn't just sat there through the shoot bollocking?
Dixie Carter put her roster an a rotten position during a 2009 segment foreshadowing (in every respect) the arrival of Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff. Hearing whispers that not everybody was on board, she made a managerial decision to deliver a "love it or leave it" speech Made In The USA Lex Luger would have been proud of, and much like the expensive bus push of 1993, it proved to be a costly mistake.
Implied threats of job losses, of the potential darkness without the possibility dawn, of all the things employees/independent contractors don't really want to hear ever, not least in a meeting about the bold exciting future of a workplace. This had it all, and subsequently had the opposite effect than intended for viewers too - what was supposed to inform part of a massive hype train for the ex-nWo'ers arrivals was in fact a far superior "lethal dose of poison" promo than Vince McMahon's for WWE nearly a decade earlier.
This was completely untenable. But you can't spell untenable without TNA.
