TNA Officials Concerned About Their Future With Spike TV + WWE Possibly Signing A Deal

Source: PWInsider Elite

There are people within TNA that are worried about the potential of WWE moving to Spike TV and other Viacom networks if they don't lock in a new deal with Comcast. The feeling is that the sooner TNA locks a new contract in with Spike, the better off they will be. TNA pretty much depends on their TV deal to keep things going.

When TNA signed their last deal with Spike, the goal between the two companies was to grow Impact Wrestling's weekly audience to 2 million viewers and obviously that has not happened. TNA's viewership is down compared to when they locked in that deal.

TNA's current deal with Spike runs through this fall, but they usually start negotiations about six months in advance.

That'd be a hell of an idea by WWE. Even if they take a little bit less than they want, they'd also be removing their biggest competitor at the same time. Definitely better for business from WWE's standpoint.

That would suck and while I like TNA a lot less than WWE I wouldn't want them to lose their TV deal.

WWE needs to just stay at USA. I mean it isn't like USA wouldn't resign them.

I think they'll probably lock in a deal sometime soon.
