I think what's interesting is that despite this being a
downgrade in a way, if the rumors are to be believed, then
they'll get more promotion on the actual channel and have more
opportunities to make new productions. At the very least a new
hour similar to Xplosion.

I know this won't happen but when TNA debuts on Destination
America that TNA and A.J. Styles would have made up in their
differences and have A.J. make a surprise entrance on the first
program on Destination America.. Please don't take this as a
rumor it's just an idea going through my head. If they would
pull something like this off it would make a tremendous impact
in their debut program and might help ratings. Can you imagine
what kind of talk there would be if A.J., Del-Rio and Orton all
made a showing on that first night?

i can understand what your saying Robert, but it sadly won't
happen AJ is very, very, very happy where he is in ROH and NJPW
(and making more money than he ever would have in TNA), Orton is
a WWE guy and I doubt he will go anywhere, but he really should
he has been stale for a while, but Del Rio? He has said he does
want to work for them, and for Lucha Underground. He is under
contract to AAA, but then that doesn't preclude him from US
commitments and TNA would make a deal for his name value alone.

The other day Dixie did talk about a wrestler coming to TNA and
hoped that the wrestlers don't get bitten by the viper. This is
why people are thinking that Orton might be coming.

Dixie didn't say the wrestler's name just mentioned "viper" in
her context of announcing a big wrestler signing.

Nah, he is signed sealed and sorted in WWE still under a long
term contract and they just agreed him less dates so he can heel
up. Those "RKO out of nowhere" gifs and vines helped his profile
no end. Of course because he is on light duties Dixie could have
just said it to spike interest, so that some people would put
two and two together, but he really isn't going anywhere.
