WCW of itself was a money loser/write off for years. The benefit of it was to promote other TBS/TNT shows to the demographic. In a Kevin Nash shoot, he talks about how even losing money, it was a cheap way to fill 5 hours of prime time ORIGINAL programming. He attributes the introduction of Thunder as the jump the shark moment, when it was bumped from 3 hours/week to 5.

Jarrets only have 10% of TNA, they have no say in anything.
