TNA Draw Poor Crowds on European Tour

by Phil Allely

Several reports are saying that the crowds at the recent TNA European tour were something like the oens they achieve in the US. Ranging between 1000 and 1600 per night. Considering some of the venues (inc Dublin's O2 arena) can house 7000-8000 fans this is a poor showing for a tour like this.

I for one feel that TNA works better in smaller venues and should keep performing to crowds like that before they try to take on larger venues.

I'm sure the fans who attended the live shows were not disappointed, but surely the roster and management were feeling let down at not filling the arenas.

The promotional material for the tour also featured a number of TNA stars who are now gone from the company. That cannot have helped things either.
