Dave Meltzer is reporting that the Carter family wants to throw the towel in on TNA and sell the company to the highest bidder. Rumored parties range from Eric Bischoff, Jeff Jarrett, Viacom and even the WWE.

 
Dave Meltzer revealed the news on his radio show today that they've been wanting to get out of the wrestling business for several months now, after they've thrown everything at the company without any financial success.

gee, was anyone suprised by the ending to the Bryan vs Orton match?  I followed the PPV on wwe chat, and mostly didn't pay attention to anything but the tag match and Big E vs Ambrose.  Other than that, seemed like a very disapointing PPV.

Pictures have surfaced online of Chris Benoit's older son, David, with David Hart Smith, son of the late British Bulldog.

 

The rumor is Benoit's son has started lifting and doing some work in the ring with Smith. Pictures also have came out of David with Chris Jericho at a WWE SmackDown taping earlier this year.

WWE? I bet Vince will literally offer $1 as well

That would only happen if Vince actually sees any bankable value in TNA.

 

So Cena has been world champ 14 times... what took Ric Flair decades to do he has managed to do in only a decade or so... does the championships have no real value anymore?

Championships don't mean anything when they're being thrown around like cheap prostitutes.

I also hate that HBK did what he did... stay retired dude quit coming back for the occasional "ref" job only to screw someone over. So now we're back to havin two champions both of which are as stale as a piece of bread... Randy Orton and SuperCena

The creative team have absolutely no clue what they are doing. I mean, there is usually always a plan, but so far the decisions they have made in the past month or so have been atrocious. I usually like to watch Raw if I am available to but tonight is going to be just another boring disappointment.

 

HBK, please go away. I appreciate everything that man has done in the ring, but on the microphone he is annoying as hell. He overacts all the time. I never want to hear him talk. I only liked his wrestling.

Yeah I am not going to see Raw for the first time in a long time, I really hated the PPV. I am losing interest in wrestling again (I go through these stages over my 24 years in watching wrestling)

I've been through that stage once before (stopped watching WWE for a couple of years just before they started transitioning to the PG era). I've thought of stopping again before, but I'd always keep coming back, so I stick around.

Yea exactly - what is the plan? Is this just another "The Corporation" where they continue to screw they good guy because honestly they are getting to the point to where im sick of watching Bryan get beat down every week by the Shield and the Randy Orton. I mean where do they go after this - a lot of people wanted to see Bryan carry the company and see how he did - how are we going to see how that works out if you're constantly tossing John Cena and Randy orton in our face? Oh ADR cant carry smackdown so... i guess we'll give the title to Cena for a 14th time, by the time he's done he will have racked up more WWE championships than HHH and Ric Flair combined...

 

As you mentioned i liked when HBK was still active but ...retirement means retirement.. if you're going to come back... do announcing if not.. just stay at home and out of the storylines..you're doing the fans a disservice 

 

I will continue to read the results and news etc and if something awesome is happening I will tune in

 

Same here... it looked like it was getting interesting for a moment then went back into Sucksville. Their first problem is get rid of PG ... and shed Cena of this baby face BS ... they guy is so over with the kids it'd be impossible to turn him heel without losing an ass ton of profit

    • Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One Commander Free also available in the Store has been my goto Files Manager for years. It does what I need at a more than reasonable speed. I do occasionally use Files Explorer just because it is there and does what I need without any problems when I use it.
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I think you missed his point. He wasn't saying that cloud storage isn't possible on GNU/Linux, clearly it is. He was pointing out that you are commenting about your dislike of Windows on an article about OneDrive (not Windows) for Mac (also not Windows). Its about as off topic as coming to an article about Sony improving something on the PlayStation and saying that you hate Sony TVs and prefer LG.
    • Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Nvidia has a fresh update for GeForce NOW subscribers today, bringing in more games to add to its ever-growing supported titles list. At the same time, the company announced the kick-off for its summer sale for the streaming subscription service, dropping the prices for both its premium packages for anyone looking to upgrade or join. The offer is for the 12-month membership options that the company offers. This drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. Next, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping prices by $70 from the original $199.99. "The Performance membership delivers smooth, high-quality cloud gaming across devices, with streaming up to 1080p at 60 frames per second (fps) and access to RTX-powered servers for supported games," says Nvidia, describing its tiers. "The Ultimate membership steps things up with RTX 4080‑ or 5080‑class performance in the cloud, supporting up to 4K and beyond on ultrawide displays, up to 120 fps, and advanced features like ray tracing, NVIDIA DLSS and NVIDIA Reflex for a more responsive, visually rich experience." With the sales out of the way, here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: NBA THE RUN (New release on Steam, available on June 9) Witchspire (New release on Steam, available on June 10) SpaceCraft (New release on Steam, available on June 11) Duet Night Abyss (Launcher) DOOM Eternal (Epic Games Store) The Elder Scrolls Online (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Farever (Steam) World of Tanks: HEAT (Wargaming) Nvidia plans to add support for a bunch of more games during the rest of June. Find the full announcement from last week over here. Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month.
    • Microsoft explains why PowerToys 0.100.0 is faster and slimmer, there are new features too

      It's actually shocking how logs filling disks has been a constant issue going back for decades, yet we see very little improvement over the years. Even in the server world, its actually shockingly common for a server to either go totally down, or have a critical alert raised due to logs filling disks.
    • YouTube has finally brought back its DMs feature, but only in these countries

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      YouTube has finally brought back its DMs feature, but only in these countries by David Uzondu Late last year, YouTube started testing a "new" way to share videos directly with friends, without having to leave the app. Now, the video giant has announced that is now rolling out a revamped direct messaging inbox, which lets you share videos, Shorts, and live streams and have conversations about them, directly on YouTube. The platform limits this feature to 18+ users who are signed in to a verified channel and use the latest mobile app version. Direct messaging on YouTube first became a thing back in 2017 inside the mobile app (later renamed to "Messages"), where users could chat one-on-one and share clips directly, but all that came to an end on September 18, 2019, when Google decided to shut it down after giving users a month to download a .zip file archive of their past chats. No one really knows why YouTube killed the feature, but users were encouraged to migrate to the public Comments section, on Community tab posts, and via YouTube Stories. The previous incarnation suffered from moderation challenges, prompting Google to implement stricter safety guidelines and age verifications for this new iteration. Here's a list of the countries where the re-launched feature is currently available, though note that Brand Accounts do not have access to it, at least for now: Countries American Samoa Austria Belgium Brazil Bulgaria Croatia Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Guam Hungary Iceland Ireland Italy Latvia Liechtenstein Lithuania Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Northern Mariana Islands Norway Poland Portugal Puerto Rico Romania Singapore Slovakia Slovenia Spain Sweden Switzerland U.S. Virgin Islands United Kingdom United States Before you can use the feature, you first have to send an invite link to your contact. Invite links expire exactly seven days after you create them. If the person on the other end accepts the invite, you can exchange videos directly and text back and forth inside the app. To delete a message, just long-press on the message and tap unsend to remove it for both users. You can also delete entire conversations by long-pressing the thread and selecting delete, but the other person will continue to see the chat history on their end. To make sure everything remains safe, YouTube monitors these messages to ensure they follow Community Guidelines.
