I’ve got a wild theory to float about TNA and WWE. More importantly about Anthem Sports and TKO Group.

Let’s say Anthem has been made an offer they can’t refuse or they are looking to scale back down to just running media companies, TKO Group is uniquely positioned to make a play for their sports companies in that case because they could take down two small competitors to their big juggernauts.

Anthem has two Live Events/Sports Companies in MMA company Invicta FC and TNA Wrestling, both fit TKO’s profile, and WWE and UFC have a history of buying up their smaller competitors.

I’m still hoping it’s just some weird collab thing they are doing and it just looks off-putting because WWE hasn’t done this kind of thing before. The sudden restructuring at the exact same time gives me some concerns though.

Here’s hoping that wrestling’s favorite cockroach scurries away yet again.

EDIT: As I have continued to try and figure this out, something that came up in my search was the fact TNA Wrestling is partners with Endeavor for TNA+. TNA+ is built on the Endeavor Streaming platform the same as the WWE Network, which means when TNA does good, Endeavor gets paid, it’s not out of the realm of possibility this is all some corporate synergy to try and get decent numbers on TNA+.
