LOC Veteran Posted October 12, 2016 Veteran Share Posted October 12, 2016 Yeah, but that depends on how many times they signed Goldberg for this go round. If its just one match, then eh.

ChopSuey Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Looks like Billy Corgan had a fallen out with TNA as he is now suing the company and Dixie Carter. He apparently also filed a restraining order. The court documents are currently sealed, so information is hard to come by as to what happened. But I guess the deal to sell TNA to Corgan is not going to happen.

But I guess the deal to sell TNA to Corgan is not going to happen. Yep, I just read it: http://pwinsider.com/article/105347/tna-president-billy-corgan-files-lawsuit-against-tna-dixie-carter-and-more.html?p=1 According to the WON - which, admittedly, is before the lawsuit news came out - Corgon and the neo-nazis Aroluxe "are still both in the game in regards to buying the company". Quote According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the TNA ownership situation is still in limbo as nothing was settled at last week’s tapings. TNA doesn’t have to worry about money for tapings until the beginning of January, and at that time some international TV revenue is coming in. But the company still owes a lot of money to several different people. Aroluxe and Corgan are still both in the game in regards to buying the company, but things are reportedly heated behind the scenes involving Dixie Carter, Billy Corgan, Aroluxe and John Gaburick. There is a lot of heat on Carter for not getting deals done and the vibe was said to be depressing. The other group that was reportedly interested (that wanted to do live events and expand the company) is out of the running to buy the company. WWE is also said to be out of the picture right now. There is no word on where the money came from to finance Bound for Glory and the TV tapings, but it was likely one of the three minority owners; Fight Network, Corgan or Aroluxe. Talent is hoping that Corgan gets the company, and are aware of how bad the situation is right now. The blame for the Carter/Corgan talks going south is on Carter with talent feeling that she had been deceptive and that she didn’t address any issues before the PPV. Some even thought that she was “playing dumb” to avoid addressing the situation. Talent on guaranteed deals are scheduled to be paid on October 15th and the 30th. The talent not on guarantees and production people are also owed money for the last tapings.

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, it just keeps getting worse... Quote According to The Tennessean, The Tennessee Department of Revenue filed a lien against TNA Wrestling last month for unpaid business taxes. The lien against TNA’s holdings was filed with the Davidson County Register of Deeds on September 8th. Furthermore, the report notes Anthem Sports and Entertainment, MCC Acquisitions and Aroluxe Media, have all filed similar statements listing TNA as a debtor. Those three filings combined to list $3.4 million in maximum indebtedness owed to the three firms by TNA. As we noted earlier this week, TNA President Billy Corgan has filed a separate lawsuit against TNA, Dixie Carter and TNA Executive Dean Broadhead, and a temporary restraining order was approved. A hearing for a temporary injunction has been scheduled for Thursday, October 20th at 11:30am local time, and Corgan has requested a six-person jury to decide the case. Filings for the lawsuit have been sealed until further notice. http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/764995-tennessee-state-files-lien-against-tna-for-unpaid-business-taxes-further-filings-list-tna-in-3-4-million-indebtedness +jamwheat 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/621597-the-big-wrestling-thread/page/1005/#findComment-597629380 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MightyJordan Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Holy crap, this could be a big deal. Wrestling was a staple on World of Sport. It all ended back in 1988, but clearly there's still a lot of fond nostalgia for it; Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks were household names back in those days (the closest there is to that nowadays is Grado up in Scotland, which is probably why he sometimes calls himself Medium Daddy ). Since El Ligero's onboard, there's definitely gonna be some comedy wrestling, almost certainly with Martin Kirby; they do it so often together across all the British promotions (with PROGRESS being the big exception; that's the one place where Ligero's mostly serious, and in a heel stable), they're practically a travelling sideshow act. I'm not gonna get my hopes up too high, since it is ITV; they haven't exactly been on top of their game for the past 10-15 years, and some of us still probably remember Celebrity Wrestling...

+jamwheat Subscriber² Posted October 17, 2016 Subscriber² Share Posted October 17, 2016 link to an article from Yahoo home page about TNA: https://www.yahoo.com/news/tna-reportedly-millions-dollars-debt-200330178.html excerpt "According to Dave Meltzer at the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, TNA is currently $3.4 million in debt, with that money owed to Aroluxe (the company fronted by the Harris Twins, who financed at least one round of TV tapings), MCC Acquisitions and Anthem Sports (both of which have connections as the money behind Fight Network, and all signs point to one of those companies being the entity that financed the most recent batch of TV tapings). According to Meltzer, TNA has already sold some of its media library to Anthem. There is no telling how that could affect WWE’s efforts to obtain that library for the WWE Network." doesn't look good.
