Wrestling Section: What the f-?

So why is Jeff Jarrett working with TNA AGAIN? Didn't they part on bad terms? And what about Global Force Wrestling? Why does JJ still have rights to TNA and why isn't he completely abandoning the sinking ship? Is he really that desperate for TV exposure that he has to LEECH on other company's TV deal? How does all of this fit together? What the f*cking F*CK IS GOING ON?

Excuse my rambling, I'm just... really confused right now because I can see what they plan to do, but I can not see the reason why they would do this.

BQ: How do you think will the invasion angle work out?

BQ 2: Do you think TNA and GFW will benefit from it?

    I was confused when I saw that him come back too. I read a few things and heard some stuff and apparently, Jeff Jarrett still has partial ownership of TNA. Jeff Jarrett and TNA left on some pretty rough terms but Jarrett still has some ownership of TNA which I did not know. So, Jarrett probably still has some rights and is allowed to be on the show. As for the reasoning? I am not sure. Having him win the King of the Mountain, not sure exactly. Is Jarret going to buy TNA? Is GFW going to do some angle or work with TNA? Is Jarrett going to use TNA to promote GFW by having Jarrett come out wearing GFW shirts and talk about it? Many questions and rumors that time will tell.

    BQ: Not sure how the invasion thing will work. I am not even sure if there will be a TNA vs GFW invasion angle. I heard that a rumor that Dixie Carter said that she does not want TNA workers to do anything with GFW. Although it makes some sense, one main question is how will backstage negotiations work. Jeff Jarrett and Dixie Carter dont like each other. They can hug and say kind stuff on camera but I don't think they like each otehr that much so working an invasion angle would be tough when it comes to two people that have tension. Also, TNA has let go of some guys. Magnus, Sam Shaw, James Storm, and others. It sounds like more guys will likely not resign or TNA won't let them resign so talent might be an issue.

    BQ2: Again, time will tell. TNA needs a tv deal but so does GFW. TNA is in some tough financial issues and management issues so even if they get a tv deal from working with GFW, it still poses some other problems. GFW just needs tv deal. We don't know much about them otherwise. I would say, depending on how this all plays out, GFW would benefit from it more.

    Jeff Jarrett still owned part of Impact! Wrestling being the official founder of the company, Double J. being in Total Nonstop Action was probably the high point of TNA Slammiversary. Global Force Wrestling isn't leeching off anything, Jarrett is just using his old grounds to start a new promotion since for all intents and purposes after September Impact! Wrestling will no longer exist. Magnus, Bobby Roode and James Storm have all agree to work with GFW already.

    JJ retained a small ownership share in TNA, which certainly did not include a cash-call -- since he would have been broke if required to dump money into the black hole. It wouldn't be shocking if the companies eventually merge, both monikers are used (GFW-TNA) for a time and then TNA fades away.

    Jeff Jarret was always the owner of TNA. not 100% but still partial owner. Best for business would be Global Force taking over the Impact timeslot and just changing the name would be more than enough. but some SERIOUSLY changes need to be made. such as removing Pope from commentary and removing whoever is telling him what to say.

    I think it's sad that tna is leeching onto a company that hasn't accomplished anything yet, gfw is leeching itself to a company that hasn't been doing to well, and that the whole thing may of been a work this whole time.
