- As previously rumored, strong sources are indicating that TNA has officially made the decision to move from Nashville to Orlando. Various reports continue to state that the move will take place in September, while others say November would be more realistic. Despite these conflicting reports, sources now are saying that once the move takes place that the Impact! tapings will move to Tuesday night's instead of Thursday night's. The first night for this change, although not confirmed, is scheduled for September 14th.
- As previously rumored as well, it appears TNA officials will go forth with the plan to end the weekly PPV events on Wednesday night's. Instead, TNA will go with a monthly Sunday night PPV event that will last for three hours. Although not confirmed, the first Sunday PPV is scheduled for November.
- Despite the upcoming moving to Orlando, the TNA offices are expected to remain in Nashville. Various talent in TNA are also making the move to Orlando as Michael Shane recently did so. Christopher Daniels has discussed with officials about moving to Orlando as well

That's good news. It should improve the quality of Impact if nothing else.

Reminds me a lot of WCW in the early-mid 90's. NWA is starting to grow a lot faster than I anticipated. With any luck there might be another Monday Night War someday.

I haven't been able to follow TNA since it suddenly disappeared from its normal 2am spot on my local dial (and since I work nights, it's a moot point now), but I think this is a good idea. I'm actually surprised that they went with weekly PPV's as long as they have. What's the point for new fans? Spend $10 a week just to find out what's going on? Puh-lease! This move, assuming it means more stories on weekly TV, will give them a fighting chance at sticking around.

From the iNDemand affiliate site:
9/8 - Last TNA Live Wed PPV
9/15 - TNA Wrestling: HITS Vol. 1 - Tag Team
9/22 - TNA Wrestling: HITS Vol. 2 - X Division
9/29 - TNA Wrestling: HITS Vol. 3 - Heavyweights
I'm just wondering if this means that Xplosion is cancelled.

Well this could be good news. I enjoy IMPACT! but I always feel like it's an informercial for the Wednesday show with as much hype as they give it. I've always said that if TNA wants to compete the focus must be on the basic cable programs, not something fans have to put down money for.

Which TNA show did you watch at 2am?I wanna say Xplosion... but like I said, it's been a few months since I've watched it, and I only did watch it for a couple months.
