Something is happening, folks. News has reached my ears concerning the possible firing of once lead writer Vince Russo. While this is a great piece of news to some, I'm sure it's a huge blow to him and his confidence in the wrestling business as a whole. That notwithstanding, TNA is growing.....they are starting to turn heads, and the ones who once buried TNA and only gave them a matter of a few years, waiting for them to collapse are now praising them for putting together a great show from week to week. Columnists from PWI to internet information sites like Lords of Pain and NO DQ are giving TNA a second look as a possible place to put more stock.
LOP Columnist, Hustle writes:
What I like about the TNA roster is just how stacked it really is. There are people like Alex Shelley, Matt Morgan, Christopher Daniels, Jeff Hardy, Doug Williams, Bully Ray, Rob Van Dam, etc, that are also in the running for the list, and would probably be included in the lists of other people.
There are considerably more, but I will cover other examples not unlike this in a later column. My point is that TNA is swaying people now, which is an AWESOME development and bodes well for the future of the company. Anyone who criticizes Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan for their treatment of the product needs to listen to what some of the most harsh critics are now saying about the Hogan/Bischoff led product now. I am glad to see people finally seeing what I have in their ability to put together a group of writers and producers and performers to rival ANYONE. EVEN Vince up in Stamford. Yeah, I said it. Right now, WWE's roster is dangerously shallow while TNA's has some true depth, with a fully stacked deck of amazing talents and every division showing definitive signs of life.
Stay tuned here, though....I've got some more commentary coming on the departure of the controversial Vince Russo later.
