-- Multiple sources in TNA have been saying that the company is on the verge of announcing a huge new TV deal in the United States. The announcement could come within the next couple weeks, however they are bound in a confidentiality agreement and cannot detail what it is to anyone yet.
-- Most expect that since Spike TV has not expressed too much interest, TNA has struck a deal with WGN. WGN has been brought up in the past as the fallback plan if they couldn't reach an agreement with Spike TV. WGN was once a "Superstation" like TBS, however due to lack of new and original programming, they have dropped in popularity.
-- It's possible that TNA could get a great deal with airtime on WGN, meaning a Monday night primetime slot in the hour preceding WWE RAW. There is also the possibility that they could run a two hour show, with one of the hours overlapping RAW.

Which would explain that WGN is part of the basic-basic cable package. You know, the package that cost about $10 a month where you get WGN plus locals, cable access, and CSPAN.

I'll say this for the 100th time, they will never succeed with a moronic name like TNA... never.

Unless they find a better booker, they aren't going to survive, period. They have some talent, but aren't using it well. And JJ as your main event, scary...

And WGN is basic cable here, so I'd be able to see it...

What's so bad about TNA? Half the people probably don't know what TNA stands for anyway.

Maybe where you are, but not everywhere. WGN used to be that way in most of the country, but it (and WWOR from NYC) have dipped in carriers over the last decade or so by quite a bit.

that's like here between TBS,WGN,and the locals outta houston there is always a decent baseball game to watch during the summer.

I don't think so. I think they've only had two or so shows in the Chicago area ("Chicago Ridge" or something). I'm pretty sure they're East Coast-based. Or Pennsylvania (which is "East Coast" to me).
