Dixie Carter Responds to X-Division Demise Rumour

[Travicity]

TNA President Dixie Carter responded to the rumor that the company was going to drop their X-Division today on her Twitter account, shooting it down completely. Carter wrote, "Not sure where you've heard the X Division is going away but it's not true at all. I'm working to beef it up with both familiar & new faces."

As we noted yesterday, TNA sources indicated there had been no discussion of doing away with the division at all recently. One source told me they were working on something later in the year to better spotlight the division but couldn't give away details.

In any event, I think Carter's statement should put that rumor to rest.

:bow: Dixie

I'm glad the rumors where false. Removing the X-Division would be the death of TNA for sure

[Travicity]

Yea would of hurt TNA alot and so many great matches would of been lost.

[Smartmark]

^^ Yeah, no Ultimate X Matches?

[Vick Diesel]

The X division is the heart and soul of TNA along with the Tag Division w/out either one of those Divisions TNA could kiss their company goodbye!

[Travicity]

Well it's fine now so more UX Matches.

I still say they'd be better off doing away with it. Get rid of the X-Division title, add the U.S. Title. I mean, the X-Division guys could still do everything they do now, they'd just have fewer restrictions on who they'd wrestle. TNA could very easily make the TV Title the equivalent of the X-Division belt.

Weird add US title and get rid of X-Division :eek:

They can't take away everything that made TNA famous. What would be left if they took away The X-Division?

Nah it's good if they are genuinely gonna "beef it up".

Focus on bringing the division to prominence again this year and then come the end of the year if all has gone as it looks like it could then TNA should hopefully be considered as a strong alternative to WWE.

With the added bonuses of a superior womens division, tag division and they're unique X division again.

If all goes right and providing they don't fuck around too much with this Immortal/M.E.M stuff 2011 COULD be a very strong year for TNA.
