TNA President Dixie Carter tweeted this at 5:41 p.m. ET on Friday:
I don’t make it a habit to reply to speculation, but I'll say if you're close to Orlando this Sun-Sat YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THESE TAPINGS!

The speculation in question revolves around whether or not TNA will even be running Bound For Glory on Sunday and the subsequent TV tapings. Reportedly, being that banks will be closed for the weekend and TNA needs funding to run the week of shows (Billy Corgan largely confirmed the latter when he appeared on The Dan Le Batard Show), the company had until the close of business Friday to make a deal. With TNA based in Nashville, which is in the Central Time Zone (where it was still 4:41 .m.),if a deal was made before the tweet, then they would have barely made it.
If they did make a deal, it’s not yet clear who would be providing the investment, if not outright buying the company. In the Le Batard interview, Corgan said that his understanding as a TNA shareholder was that WWE was not in negotiations for the company.
