Wwe network with 04-2008 TNA would be lit
NahThat means there would be no huge number 2 promotion. Even though TNA isit is the number 2 promotion in the U.S. and ROH is number 3.
ROH does live events and is on PPV every other month

Yeah but TNA is still a far bigger level than ROH in pay and exposure.
Hell LU is bigger exposure than ROH, national tv deals are a big deal, and in TNA a national and very strong international presence is even bigger in terms of what you can command in pay.
No its not. ROH is on national television and has numerous international avenues for exposure, especially in Japan right now.
Just look at how many former TNA stars are in ROH prospering right now because they couldn't afford to keep them. TNA can't even draw a few hundred people at the moment.

Are they? I know the Destination America deal is dead.
As for internation avenue, are they carried internatinoally? I know TNA is carried in the UK and Germany weekly. I've yet to hear about RoH having a deal like that, cross promotion isn't what I'm talking about.
TNA stars are in ROH because they are mad about TNA cutting them or low balling them and they aren't wanted by WWE.
Money is better at TNA than ROH and thats been confirmed by many wrestlers.
TNA can't draw, thats arguable, but they have a national and international broadcasting agreement, and offer the 2nd biggest group for pro wrestling in the US. Those are facts.

WWE gave Booker T, Mark Henry, Sasha Banks and Dwayne Johnson the top titles on their show/division. I know it helps your argument if you get to ignore that, but that's all facts
Thats 100% bullshyt, Meltzer has been in the know with everything. Been listening to clickbait headlines?

If its a matter of a tape library, I'd rather they try to work some deal out like they did with Ring of Honor to show footage like they did in the CM Punk and Shield DVDs
Wrestling needs options for the people working it

I wonder if we can acquire a stake
I posted on here that that's what TNA should have done. Sold shares to the people that actually believe in the company (idiots) to make money. The JOBS act that Obama passed allows the average joe to buy shares of onwership in non-stockmarket companies. They coulda got above their actual value for it

UFC gets way higher ad rates than WWE, did $157m profit in 2015 vs. WWE $30m profit, had a 4 Bllion valuation that actually went through (when they were sold) vs. WWE $1.4Billion. In TV Ratings, WWE wins, but that's about it

In all honesty though, WWE is probably just interested in their library and if they buy TNA they'll probably end up firing or not buying out a lot of contracts.
They would keep The Hardys, Moose, Lashley. That's it. Maybe send a few of the smaller guys to NXT.
They just want that video library.
