Backstage Update On Dixie Carter Filming A Reality TV Pilot At The Impact Wrestling Tapings
- We noted before that Dixie Carter was filming a pilot episode for a potential reality TV show at the last set of Impact Wrestling tapings. We also noted that Dixie gave a speech to the roster and spoke about how they shouldn't believe what they read on wrestling websites about the Impact ratings.
Dixie's speech was filmed for the reality TV pilot. At the same meeting backstage, Dixie introduced Billy Corgan to the roster and that was also filmed.
There's a feeling that even if TNA is faced with a worst case scenario, not getting a new US TV deal, that there is still good reason to keep the company alive as long as a deal for a Dixie reality TV show is still being offered. The idea is that the show will be sold on a woman running a pro wrestling company in a male-dominated industry.
