TNA is going through some pain since the loss of Scott, Anthem is starting to look like Sinclair before they ended up selling off ROH. The conspiracy theorist in me wants to believe that TNA was never supposed to get popular again and when it started, they knee-capped it.
Probably not anything that deliberate, but definitely it could be that D’amore wanted to keep building on the buzz TNA has been getting and grow it, and Anthem doesn’t want to make that investment in the company for whatever reason.
Lots of people online were wondering if this all is gonna lead to WWE acquiring them, given how much they’re working together (especially with HBK’s comment that there’s a lot more being planned). If Anthem see’s the writing on the wall they may be looking to cash out instead of keeping it going like Scott wanted (but again that’s ICW conjecture so~)
ngl i’m really worried that wwe will chew up tna and that would be a bad thing for wrestling :/
A worthwhile worry given…*glances at the uk wrestling scene*
