TNA Production Crew threatens to walk out

Postby Str8Shooter » May 12, '14, 4:38 pm

Apparently, the production crew was behind on getting their pay and threatened to all walk out in the middle of the Impact tapings unless they were paid up to a certain point. They got their money.

How this can happen in a "world wide" wrestling federation just baffles me. They can't even pay their staff on time? People wonder why TNA is bashed, but they really make it hard for anyone to defend them. Week after week more news comes out, whether it be people not getting paid or not covering insurance costs, and it makes TNA look like a glorified independent company that wrestles in school gyms. I don't think anything like this happened when JJ was in charge, or at least in a power slot of the company. Dixie Carter is just terrible and the stuff she says on twitter makes me hate her even more. Get your shit together TNA.

Riddle me this?
If TNA is owned by a major multi-billion dollar corporation, then why the money issues?

I know there is the shit about xxx.xx being funded to TNA and TNA ultimately being responsible for their own finance but at what point does the parent company step in and either say "here is more money to make things work" or "wher is our money going?" And do a audit to find the issues

Maybe we should be thinking of the money more as Dixie Carter's allowance?

... This was a joke, but I suspect that it may hold some truth. Therefore, :facepalm

Do you get what I am saying though? For example, yumyum foods owns taco bell, if taco bell had issues with payroll and product venders then yumyum would step in and do an internal audit to find out why the money was not there going to or why it was not being made. They would not just sit there and watch

Update: http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/news/major-update-tna-production-crew-threatens-to-walk-out

Looks like it was a 'clerical error'. Still, it's not really cool to screw around with people's pay like that, it happened around this time last year (according to the update) so why didn't they learn from that mistake?
