To be honest, I don't blame Bisch. Once you hit any sort of a senior management role, your work-life balance goes out the window. The 8-5 work day is dead. You're always on the clock. It's not for everyone.

I'm guessing everyone pitches ideas, Vince says no to everything, Vince says "we're not leaving this room until we have a show dammit!" and that just continues until Vince decides hes bored and wants to go to the gym.

Nothing beats the story of him abruptly calling a bunch of creative writers for them to go to his summer house one day to work on some plans. By the time they arrived, he either forgot why he called them or suddenly decided he actually didn't want to do any work that day and told them all to quickly leave his house. |

I can't even fathom how a creative meeting can last until 3 AM. What are they even talking about? There's about 10 minutes of story progression a week. 80% of the roster never have storylines outside of 'developed quite the rivalry'.
What a shit place to work. |

Arguments. Making time for every suggestion. Recaps.
That's how you get to 3am. |

I bet he has Cole just sat there to provide a recap of what was discussed moments ago. Throws to him every 15 minutes.

And when all's said and done, Vince does what he wants anyway. Wasn't it said a while back they have like 25-30 writing staff, yet in the late 90's there was 3 or 4 "bookers" and it was an infinitely better product.

I would really like to see Braun and Tyson go to shit and they end up swinging for real. Haha would be amazing if Braun just slammed the shit out of him.

Apparently Impact Wrestling's All Glory event last night was a disaster in terms of production issues.
Ended up having to stream the show via two phones with the first phone stream hosted by Josh Matthews and abruptly got cut when Matthews needed his phone back for private stuff.

TNA just needs to close. End the clown show and let the talent do their thing at competent organizations.

That happens a lot with their Twitch and Impact plus shows. They team up with local promotions and let them cover production for the events. Should probably start using their own production crew for them. Bound for Glory tonight should be fine.

It is a bit unfair to saddle them now with the sins of the past, since it's essentially an entirely different organization MULTIPLE TIMES REMOVED from when it started out with NWA support and Jeff Jarrett to now (they've changed funding sources/ownership about as many times as they've changed networks), but that Vinceism "Perception is reality, pal!" rings true, and Vito is unfortunately correct. If it does them well, by all means, milk what you can for yourself. If people are willing to throw money at "old school" TNA shirts, get every dime you can. Seems like it shouldn't work, but realistically, there *has* to be a market for it. |
