[@fendi4510]

cooper playz they said it's not tna anymore it's AWE or something like that they changed the name when Dixie left

[@fendi4510]

Diana Davidson they said they changed the name when Dixie left they said it's anthem wrestling entertainment or something like that and impact is the name of the show they said nomo TNA

I think it be fucking stupid, I like him as both a heel and face, but they need a mister TNA baybyface and he fits that bill, someone you can point out and say, they built him themselves, I like Del Rio, but he's not gonna be mister TNA, especially after you just debuted

If you're gonna change your name from TNA to Impact Wrestling, then you should also get new belts made... Having TNA on your world title when nothing else references those letters anymore will be extremely awkward especially to any new fans you acquire.

[@bobbiebrown1]

Gradrats Alberto El Patron for being a TNA World Heavyweight Champion

[@rashawntaylorjr4717]

I actually found this decision by impact to make El Patron Champion smart because of the fact since they're rebuilding they're going to need globally known face as champion. I'm not saying that lashley was a bad Champion but since he had like a decent amount of fans in other places they may come watch because of him.
