With the recent upturn Ring of Honor has experienced and the (going to try and say this as respectfully as possible) downturn or "scaling back" in TNA, do you think that the competition ROH is giving TNA for the number 2 spot should drive TNA to be better?

I think that's all the leverage TNA has though, anymore. Like if ROH got national TV tomorrow (their TV deal reaches 40% of American households, TNA's only holds 66% and that is decreasing as people continue cutting their cable providers) they have a higher attendance average this year in America (Dave Meltzer said 8% more as of early May, that might have increased because they sold-out Toronto and NYC), arguably the better product (it's subjective I guess) and their roster is gaining a lot of big, good names like AJ Styles and Daniels and Kaz and Chris Hero, and with the NJPW relationships it has so many possibilities to see some of the best wrestlers in the world in the company. I didn't say they were on TNA's tail, but they are supplying significant competition as a product.
