THE END OF FCW, COURT ORDER AGAINST WWE, TNA'S HIGHEST RATING EVER AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2012-06-16 10:00:00
Hi, is it true that the judge has ordered an injunction stating that WWE cannot hire anybody who has been contracted to TNA in the last 60 days?

There is absolutely no truth to that rumor.

What is TNA's highest rating ever?

The highest rated episode of Impact ever was the 1/4/10 episode of Impact, the first Monday special, which featured the first appearances of Hulk Hogan, Eric Bischoff and Ric Flair for the promotion as well as the return of Jeff Hardy, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and Sean Waltman. It garnered a 1.5 rating.

I remember a few months back, another site claimed that WWE was shutting down FCW. And you said they weren't getting shut down, they were just moving from Tampa to the university in Winter Park. Which seems to be what is happening, except they're using the NXT name instead of FCW. Is that accurate, that FCW is just moving and becoming NXT? Since you were on top of it right away, I thought maybe you could write an update on the whole topic to satisfy curious people like myself.

There is no change in FCW itself, except the TV show is going away and instead they will be taping NXT instead.

So you do believe that a big name will eventually get fired for a wellness strike 3 and whom do you believe that individual is??

Eventually, someone will. It's a numbers game. I'm not going to say who I think it is.

I am with you on Bob Ryder being named to the TNA Hall of Fame, but to be honest who knows who Bob Ryder is other than smart fans? so he is out as number 1 but I do believe he will be amongst the first, I believe Jerry Jarrett will be the first because he was the original money man, and if they feel Flair will still be around he will be in the mix as well, also Christian will speak and be wearing his title belt and do what WWE failed to do at their HoF, he will mention WWE.

Well, we now know it's Sting but deep down, I feel Bob Ryder and Jeff Jarrett should be in the first class as well.

Didn't Andre the Giant play Bigfoot in a movie?

No, but he played the character in several episodes of the Six Million Dollar Man.
