THE REGRESSION OF IMPACT UNDER ANTHEM, WWE PLANNING AHEAD, DID WE REALLY NEED TO SEE BRAY WRESTLE AS A WOMAN AND MORE

I attended Impact’s last TV taping in Canada.  By then, the place smelled and it just seemed minor league.  My question is how long will they keep running when most of the good talent is already gone and they run such small buildings?

Things aren’t rosy at Impact right now.  To answer your question, as long as Anthem wants to fund it, it can run.  But I agree with you, it doesn’t look good right now.  I hope they can find a way to turn it around.

On another note, this time last year everyone was on Dixie Carter’s case about how she was running Impact.  A year later, she looks a whole lot better doesn’t she?

I have said the same thing on audio a few times now.  Say what you want about Dixie but compared to the year that Impact has had under Anthem I agree, she looks very good in comparison.

The Shield debuted, broke up, and now reunited all inside the Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.  As far as you know, is it pure coincidence that all three of those major events for the Shield have happened in the same building, or is it something the WWE has done intentionally?

I have heard nothing to indicate that it was anything other than coincidence.  Now, it could have been they realized they were going to be in the building and a short period out decided to pull the trigger there, but it wasn’t a long term plan as far as I know.  Given how short term WWE books, I would be shocked if it was.

I've noticed that, unless their gear has full pants (like Nia, Natalya, and Tamina)  the women all wear some kind of legging.  Kind of a stupid question, but is that something the WWE mandates, or is that just something all the women have chosen to do?

I think it has more to do with anatomical functionality and protection than anything else.

Don't you think that WWE wasted yet another big moment when they put both the Shield reunion and Sister Abigail on the same show? They could have done so much more by putting them on different episodes. I think.

No, I don’t.  Then again I think Bray Wyatt pretending to be a woman, or whatever the hell they were going for with that, was a waste of time.  I don’t think it was anything big at all.
