Early numbers on the TNA Lockdown pay-per-view indicate that the show did around 17,000 buys. This is down from the Lockdown numbers over the past few years but obviously well above the average TNA pay-per-view event. Lockdown is usually one of TNA's highest drawing pay-per-views.

Meltzer from what I heard on another show takes his estimates off people who read his newsletter which has got to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard

_________________

and? Thats a an incredibly stupid method of collecting a estimate. According to this its based on early numbers not just Dave Meltzer collecting an idea based on a poll on his website.

and by the way when your TNA and don't release any of your numbers you leave yourself open to this. When Meltzer for example said Money in the Bank last year did better numbers than it did WWE's numbers quickly dispoved that. If this is wrong TNA should be more than welcome to expose the actual number. Also the buyrate really wasn't even the point of what I originally stated which was you still produced a shitty pay per view

Impact Wrestling is really good. TNA just needs to put together better PPVs and do a better job at marketing them. They've never been good at that. I don't think they need 12 ppvs a year..... downsize it to at least eight to make each more significant. I hope they've thought about that.

What the hell is that suppose to mean? TNA's a private company. They don't release their numbers or finances. WHERE THE HELL IS THIS LORDS OF PAIN WEBSITE GETTING THEIR INFO FROM!?

Normally the crowd makes up for a shitty PPV especially outside Orlando but I really thought this was a weak Lockdown from the previous years.

Who knows ask them, again you were missing the point I was more ripping them for putting on a shitty pay per view since if I was to guess I would have assumed it got less.

and Spec again why are they good? They don't have star poewr, or interesting feuds, and The Two young stars they are pushing Bishoff and Crimison are absolutely terrible. Thats not good, and marketing will change what? and less pay per views does what?

The more marketing and less pay per views is like a monday war idea, it make sense until you ask whats the benefits? TNA's audience doesn't grow so if your watching Impact I'm assuming you know that their is a pay per view coming up I could be wrong but that'd be my assumption and less pay per views does what exactly?

I love how XT responded to his own quote like it was a post from Mad Man. Amazing.

In referring to xtremefalls43

That may be the post of 2012.

You call it "a shitty pay per view" yet didn't watch it, I don't see how you can call it shitty.

Okay fine lets just look at the results, you start the card off with Lethal Lockdown a concept that doesn't have enough space to be truely accomplished and who's the featured star of the match? Garrett Bischoff

yOu had Devon Wrestle in a title match......need I say more?

You did a segment with Hogan or flair which served absolutely no purpose. none.

Crimson and Matt Morgan wrestled in a cage again need I say more? I've seen one Matt Morgan cage match with Hernandez and Crimison is no Hernandez and that match sucked.

and then you have a none finish, finish to the a feud. Thats just from the results. Then you combine that with the fact that the only even remotely positive reviews of the show I've seen are from people on here and they weren't overly praising TNA either I Think i'll stick with it was a lousy show

First off I didn't do any segment, I wasn't affiliated with any of TNA's production. It's all fine and dandy looking at the results, but I don't see how you could make a judgment about its quality when you didn't watch it.

I just told you how, word of mouth and the actual facts of what happened seems like a pretty clear cut case, do you need me to answer this a third time now?

As I just said in the other thread, it's about quality of the acting not the quality of the script.

No its really not, for example I don't need to see Eric Bischoff walk out covered in shit to know thats just stupid. I don't need to see Impact to see TNA having Jeremy Borash and Eric Bishoff talking about a tweet from a month and half ago that likely a good portion of that audience never read to know its a dead phases and a waste of time, and finally I don't need to see Bischoff and Borash taking up air time on a feud that has nothing to do really do with anything to know its a waste of time and stupid.

By the way for this desperate attempt to Defend TNA I haven't seen yourself or anyone else for that matter say they thought it was a good show.

Do you need me to go over it a 4th time
