TNA officials are currently working on finalizing plans for their next TV tapings, which could come as soon as the week of December 15th in the Midwest. As noted, TNA has a hold on the Manhattan Center for the week of January 6th but they may tape in December and let those holds go, leading to tapings in the UK during their annual tour.
TNA officials are said to be extremely happy with the new Destination America TV deal. The deal was reportedly agreed upon a week or two ago and finalized earlier this week. The feeling within TNA is now that the TV deal is done, they can start working on new talent deals, creative plans for next year and more internal changes, which John Gaburick has been working on.
One of the Destination America selling points for TNA was that TNA will be an important cornerstone of the network. The deal also opens up the possibility of more TNA programming. Dixie Carter made it clear during negotiations that she didn’t want a deal for just another two hours of Impact Wrestling.
