TNA doing live PPV, first Top Prospect tournament participant, Smackdown audience, TNA special audience, and Questions on NXT talents being called up, Vince then vs. now, TNA's final DA shows, Silas vs. Dalton, and Mauro Ranallo

TNA will do a live One Night Only PPV on Jan. 8 from Bethlehem, PA. This is where they'll tape Impact in preceding days that week.

House of Hardcore graduate and MMA veteran "Action" Ben Ortiz will be in ROH's Top Prospect tournament. He has appeared on ROH TV previously, so this isn't especially surprising.

Smackdown's live audience Tuesday night was 2.27 million. I expect some people will wait to watch until Christmas Eve, since they're used to watching on Thursdays. Otherwise, the show probably would have drawn a better audience.

Everything else from Wednesday is after the break.

TNA's Best of 2015 special on Pop, unadvertised by either party and originally set to air on DA, drew 110,000 viewers.

For my take on Wednesday's PWInsider.com questions:

1. I think it's really important to keep in mind NXT talents are being groomed for all roles on the main roster. Not everyone's going to be set up to be the next big star. Some are just there to be midcarders, and a lot go from being the top of the NXT divisions to a crowded roster of talented, experienced wrestlers. It's like being upset that a star minor league player isn't immediately the most important part of the major league team. As for NXT wrestlers being future John Cena fodder, there's a difference between Cena beating Zack Ryder in less than five minutes compared to Cena needing three AAs and an STFU to beat Kevin Owens (after Owens had already beaten him clean).

2. There are differences between the Vince of 1999 and the Vince of 2015, for sure, but there are also really big differences between the worlds of wrestling and entertainment in general compared to the Attitude Era. There's definitely something to be said about the fact there's no "WCW" for disgruntled talents to go to and continue to make a lot of money. As for Daniel Bryan, he beat Triple H, Randy Orton, and Batista in one night to win the WWE Title at WrestleMania 30. I think that counts as Vince giving the people what they want.

3. I'm shocked they had that much content left over! They taped months and months worth of matches around the time of Slammiversary, and they finally ran out of what was taped there. So they threw that show together with interviews and recaps.

4. That story is definitely one of the few bright lights in the darkness of Spotfest City. I hope both of them have big futures, and definitely think they could both benefit NXT if they weren't presumably locked into ROH deals.

5. Ranallo definitely has a great body of work behind him. Hopefully he has a great body of work ahead of him, too.
More wrestling coming up.
