TNA, Spike TV Part Ways Following Impact's Cancellation

By Josh Albarran - July 28, 2014

As reported earlier this week, Spike TV's parent company Viacom and Nashville-based professional wrestling company Total Nonstop Action (TNA) had been parting ways after the New York-based media company announced that Spike had cancelled TNA's flagship show. This come months after World Wrestling Entertainment reached an mulit-year deal with NBCUniversal, which will continue to air programming such as Monday Night Raw, Friday Night SmackDown, A.M. Raw and other content such as rebroadcasts and originals on their networks.

Spike will stop airing wrestling after 15 years, dated back when they (back then know as TNN) began airing the still-struggling Extreme Championship Wrestling in 1999 before the network cancelled ECW in favor for WWE from its original broadcaster USA Network in the fall of 2000 and continue that relationship until 2005 when WWE moved back to USA and brought in TNA around that time after began airing Impact Wrestling from Fox's regional sports networks.

Today, I react to Twitter like a shoot to TNA Wrestling on why Viacom deciding to drop professional wrestling from its family of networks:

"Viacom want to get wrestling out of their networks, just like Turner did when they cancelled WCW shows in 2001 before selling it to WWE."

"TNA is losing money and cannot seek an major TV deal with media companies like Viacom to provide good wrestling to their audiences."

"If TNA puts its shows airing on syndicated TV stations as w/ the big 3 companies did in 90s, it would (be) hard to find them in a city market."
