Neckbeard logic

I don't know what that means but judging by this weak response it's clear no lies were told.

GFW president Ed Nordholm gave an interview with Wrestling Observer Radio to address the rumours surrounding the sale of GFW. Meltzer also said the rumours make absolutely no sense to him.

Global Force Wrestling and future plans for the promotion.

People who are talking that we're selling the company are wrong. We are investing in the company every month. He also gave more insight into the Global Wrestling Network and said that the plan is to brand the network as an alternative wrestling streaming service. That's why it's not branded as an Impact-only service. He said the network will have a $7.99 monthly free with a 30 day free trial and there will be a free tier and a paid tier. He said most of the content will be available in the paid tier.

Regarding the rumors of the tape library being sold to WWE:

I know full well how the WWE Network would monetize the content and what they could pay for the library. Monetizing it there makes no sense for me to sell it for that kind of price. I would rather keep it and put it up on the app and monetize it myself. He added when Meltzer said the rumors didn't make sense to him:

That's the outcome that arises if the decision had been like oh shyt, we don't want to be in the wrestling business, shut her down and so what do we do with that asset to get on the liquidation sale. We're investing in this company. We're growing it. We know it's not going to turn around tomorrow. Selling the library is not on the cards.

Regarding Bound For Glory:

I know with all the noise this week, the anti GFW people sort of picked up saying 'here we go again. It must be that time of year again.' There is going to be a show. We're excited about the show. Alberto will be back. We're got Johnny Impact there. The ATT group will be there, and I'm sure there will be others that will come along as we get closer to the current date.

Jeff Jarrett's leave of absence@

I won't go too much into that for Jeff's sake rather than the company's. But he will be back at some point. When and where I don't have an answer.

It was stated in this thread by the shadow WWE stockholders that Meltzer co-signed the company/library being sold though.

I wanna see the hardyz buy it

Thought so, I can faintly remember there was a couple of month where no one even spoke about WWE and everyone cared about the weirdly shaped ring and Aj Styles,Samoa Joe and Chris Daniels(or something like that)

Tna had a better inring product for that time as cena Batista etc were coming up and wwe was kind of boring but never did anyone not mention wwe

 

[jerniebert]

Nobody kicks out of more finishers then TNA.

Uncalled for

yeah I am not sure what dude was talking about the only time WWE was better than TNA was when hogan/bishoff came on board and they tried to make it a cheap imitation this was 2010, It never recovered from that reign of terror till this year. Lol at that one comment that TNA's best production was when it was on Destination America. It looked like a local road show you see on the street corner with posters of rasslers you thought were long retired posing to boost ticket sales. How anyone can say it was better than when it was on spike is laughable
