TNA Wrestling made its own waves Friday by virtue of a Dixie Carter announcement claiming the company is about to change forever.
Early Friday, TNA’s President tweeted, “Been up for hours. So excited I can’t sleep. TNA’s about to change forever. Can’t wait to share it w/you, my staff, the talent.”
Friday night, she expanded the story to note, “Just got off phone w/Spike prez Kevin Kay. He is all in and agrees this will change TNA on every level.”
PWInsider.com reported that one change is expected to involve a change to the creative team. The names with whom TNA have been talking include Kevin Sullivan and Paul Heyman. For Heyman to accept the position, sources say he would require extensive creative control of the process.
No odds have been placed on the specific likelihood of Heyman or Sullivan starting with the company this weekend, but the belief is that a major shake-up is planned for creative.
It should be noted that the creative change is not, however, the only big modification planned. Sources, including PWInsider.com, say something much more sweeping is also expected.
Ok I predict this is not it.
It would be amazing to have Heyman in TNA, it could change this on every level but theres no guarantee. I would think that she wouldn’t have lost sleep over Heyman. Just a thought. I reckon its going to be something even bigger. Hopefully as well as Heyman. Maybe Heyman, Sullivan, JR and Batista. We’ll see
Wont be Batista for 1) hes got the 90-day no compete clause. 2) He left WWE because he wanted to go do movies.
Would love to see it be JR, because I know they have been in talks with JR as far as a contract. As far as Heyman, I don’t know if Dixie has gotten wise enough to just say to hell with all of the writers that do creative for now. If she did, would be a miracle that I would love to see happen, but I guess we just wait and see!!
