I give the benefit of the doubt, too.
But, they had so much time to prepare this night & this was the best they were capable of?
I’ll give them a month to figure things out.
Everybody’s had ideas that sounded GREAT until they actually tried them.
Hopefully, Dixie & co. will learn where they need to change things.
They do have talent.
When Angle is healthy again, get him working some programs with RVD, Styles, Hardy (if he can stay out of jail), etc.
Incorporate Russo's ideas, but DO NOT give him absolute power. Vince never did, and he usually tweaked Russo's & Ferrara's ideas anyway.
But, if they do another match with either Hogan and/or Flair the way they did on Monday, TNA will seal its fate as a sinking ship that should have sailed much farther than it did.
I honestly believe that one of the best things Carter can do is to surround herself with smart people from the business, pool their ideas, but stay in charge. Don't become another Ted Turner type who passively owns a company with other people running it, while you are clueless as to what's going on.
