| TNA Wrestling President Dixie Carter has told Digital Spy that she is open to the idea of a WWE/TNA crossover event, where the two rival organisations have their stars go head-to-head.
Carter, who has visited the UK to promote TNA's 2014 British tour, said that she enjoys the rivalry with WWE, arguing that it benefits both companies and - most importantly - the fans.
I don't think [the WWE] shares my belief in this, but I believe that competition is 100% positively essential," she told Digital Spy.
"I think it's important for fans and for us. To have one company dominate, a) it's boring, and b) you are not being challenged enough. It's always better to have other options out there and I truly believe it makes both companies better."
When asked if she would ever be open to the idea of WWE and TNA stars appearing together in shows, she said: "I absolutely would do that. I'm not sure if they would do that, but I absolutely would."
TNA currently airs on Challenge in the UK and Carter said that she considers Britain the company's "second home".
"The UK is essential. It truly has become our second home. It's the first home worldwide that we have had ratings dominance. Fans in this country know what they like and they're very vocal about it," she said.
"They judge the product on what they see in front of them and it's not all about the history.
We're talking about doing another season of the Bootcamp series on Challenge and we're also in talks about other UK TV projects so hopefully we'll be able to announce that in the coming months.
"And from a touring perspective, we're going to be filming in Glasgow, Scotland. That will be the first time that wrestling has ever been broadcast live from Scotland, so I'm really excited about that."
Speaking about the growth of TNA over the last decade, Carter said that she is "very proud" of the company's achievements on "limited resources", and that her aim is still to become "the most successful wrestling company in the world".

| Yeah I can't see this working.
Of course it would be great for TNA and probably fans but I don't think WWE would go along with this. | |

| The thing is, this would benefit TNA so much, but wouldn't do anything for WWE. | |
