So apparently, with the jump to HD TNA decided that the IZ needed a complete overhaul. So they added some LED lighting, reconfigured the floor area, got rid of one of the ramps(!), added more seats, and redesigned the stage with two entrance tubes and a giant HD screen.

They also kept the lasers. Sigh.

Anyway, here's some pics:













Great. Now I'm gonna have to watch to see how the new set looks on TV. Stupid TNA.

Were you at Vegas, or is this at the Impact Zone?

[DevSop]

That's the new Impact Zone at Universal in Florida. It's one of the reasons they did the show in Vegas.

Looks good. Definitely want to see more and I'd love to spend time in it. I'm very surprised I like it as much as I do. Oh what I wouldn't do to stick it in. Dixie Carter is so hot.

I don't know about the set. Can't tell but probably don't much care. I do mourn the loss of the 2nd ramp though. How will I tell heels and faces apart now?

[ALL CAPS]

Yeah. What Dev said. And those aren't my pics, they're pics from 'round the webs. I got 'em off a TNA message board I hate to admit I go to.

You ain't kidding!

Look closely Lucky... two separate tubes on one stage! You're free to have the blurry line between TNA faces and heels forcefully snapped into focus for you by continued separation of entrance areas! Never fear.

That said, I hate how one of the tubes angles downward. That looks gay as hell. Box it in, or get rid of the square around it.

[Lucky]

I'll be damned, you're right. It lives!

Eh, I'd do that Dixie too.

Maybe.

[National Champion Chris Cole]

I'm glad they will be broadcasting the show in HD. Now if my cable provider will just add Spike HD I'll be set.

[ALL CAPS]

Yeah. Same boat. At least it'll still look different on a regular TV too.
