TNA and Panda
By Scott Keith on 23 September 2013
Scott,
Let me play Devil's Advocate for a moment…
You are in a meeting with Bob Carter. Bob asks you why Panda Energy should fund the money-losing TNA in 2014 instead of pulling their support for the company.
What do you say to convince him to break out the checkbook and cover another year's worth of expenses for your wrestling company?
I
wouldn't. I'd tell him to sell it to Viacom so that they'd be the ones profiting off whatever ratings increase it might get, and thus giving SpikeTV a direct interest in making it a better show. This would be a case where network tampering could only HELP.
