TNA is eternally grateful to SpikeTv for putting them on TV to begin with, they wouldn't move channels for a long time

yes but they are losing money and ratings by only having 1 hour

Tna has no where else to go and if they stick with spike they will probably get a 2 hour time slot at some point in time.

from what I have been reading TNA's ratings are going up every week and Spike is very happy with TNA

TNA is probarbly under contract with SpikeTV anyway, and if SpikeTV doesnt think they are good enough for 2 hours what other channels will?

No other channel would pick up TNA, they would probably go to FSN or some local Florida station

well being under contract doesn't mean squat....the WWE was under contract to the USA network and they got out of it to join Spike. But like most said, who would air TNA nationally in the US besides Spike...no one right now. The ratings aren't great for TNA but they are doing well for what the product and time allows. TNA and Spike have pretty much agreed to a 2 hour time slot to begin near the end of 2007. Things could still change, but from all reports it sounds like it will be a go. I beleive that from a TV deal stand point Spike is the best place for them to be right now.

I think TNA will stay on spike TV unless TNT steps in (I highly doubt it). Plus Spike TV doesn't get shown in every cable syndicate. Doesn't CBS own Spike? They should do an hour of local programming once a quarter to get TNA some additional help

SpikeTV is the best it's gonna get for TNA and they'd be insane to try to leave Spike. They need to prove they can put on a good, consistant product before they think baout adding a 2nd hour.

And what would they do with a 2nd hour? Add more skits. Anyone who saw a 3 hour Nitro booked by Russo should know not to expect him to just have longer matchs. They'll just add another 10 Eric Young segments.

As long as AOL Time Warner owns TNT & TBS don't expect to ever see wrestling on there networks again. They believe Wrestling is a redneck sport and beneath there high class values.

Sadly thats true, but to Russo's credit he was the one that got WCW to cut Nitro back to 2 hours.

TNA will stay on Spike, and if they stick with it, they will get their two hour time slot. when you think about it, TNA and Spike are a lot alike... kind of the underdog badass type thing going on. spike is a little bit more raw (no pun intended) of a channel, and TNA is a more raw brand

TMZ reports that former “Jersey Shoreâ€￾ star Angelina is PISSED after watching Snooki's crotchtastic debut on WWE Monday night -- calling Snook a “fat trollâ€￾ who's ripping her off ... by jumping in the ring. Angelina -- who's trying to turn her recent TNA appearance into a full-time job -- tells TMZ, it’s totally obvious Snooki is ripping her off by trying to be a wrestler ... claiming Snook has been jealous of her since day one.

And that's just the beginning -- Angelina throws in one final jab, adding, Snooki is "a fat troll who should never wear those shorts ... or be in a wrestling ring.â€￾

Would guess that Snooki is getting a way bigger payday from the WWE, than she is getting from TNA.

It's probably leagues more in terms of money. Also, I doubt Snooki approached WWE. It isn't "ripping you off" if someone is offered a shit ton of money from a company. What's Snooki supposed to do?

"Oh, wow. $100,000 you say? Oh well, Angelina is already in the ring.. I can't rip her off. Thanks, but no thanks."
