The parent company of TNA, Anthem, recently hired former WWE executive Rob Kligman as its new Chief Revenue Officer. In an interview with Essentially Sports, this man actually argues that the WWE and TNA brands are roughly equal in quality of content and production:
“The brands both can speak for themselves and stand for themselves. Right now, the difference really is the distribution mechanism that WWE uses to push their content out versus what TNA does. Right now, we’re focusing on getting that distribution even larger than it is for TNA. But that’s the big differentiation point. The production is the same quality and the content is the same quality. The difference is the distribution.
So that’s one of the big reasons why I came on board, was to help the distribution, work with our team internally at TNA, and lock in an opportunity for the fans to see it worldwide. And that’s our ultimate goal…once we get that distribution deal, I think you’re gonna see a little bit more of an even keel between both organizations.”
WWE definitely has a huge advantage over every other wrestling company when it comes to distribution, but…the rest of his comparison between WWE and TNA sounds like crazy talk to me.
