TNA President Carlos Silva has shared the latest developments regarding the search for new media rights deals in the United States. In a recent interview, Silva expressed confidence that an agreement could be finalized by this fall.
During his conversation with Dennis Salcedo, Silva confirmed that talks with a potential partner are progressing well, although he is still focused on securing an official signing. “That’s great, but it will only be great once everything is finalized,” Silva said. “There are many discussions happening, and they are going well.”
There is speculation that TNA might be close to securing a new platform for its promotion, following a Wrestling Observer report. When questioned about these rumors by Pwinsider, Silva remained tight-lipped, stating, “I can’t say anything about the rumors.” Currently, TNA’s weekly show, Impact!, airs on a network owned by the American national anthem.
TNA is negotiating the new deal just after hosting one of its most talked-about pay-per-view events in recent years. The recent Slammiversary event featured significant crossovers with WWE’s NXT brand, including NXT Women’s Champion Jacy Jayne winning the TNA Knockout World title. The show also featured surprise appearances from WWE star AJ Styles and other TNA legends, drawing considerable new attention to TNA’s product.
Fan Take: This news is crucial for TNA Wrestling fans as a new media rights deal could boost the promotion’s visibility and growth. The recent Slammiversary buzz combined with a stronger broadcast platform could signal a significant resurgence for TNA in the wrestling world.
