Impact Wrestling Promotes Steve Austin

Richard Gray December 22, 2012 TNA News 1 Comment

All for the good of the network… That’s what some are saying after the official Facebook page of Impact Wrestling promoted WWE legend Steve Austin on “Redneck Island” Saturday afternoon. Below is a screen capture of the post:

Impact Promotes Austin

Spike TV, the network that carries all of TNA’s programming, is a subsidiary of MTV Networks, wholly owned by Viacom, which also owns CMT. It looks like the network had Impact Wrestling help promote other programming for the sake of drawing the wrestling audience.

Obviously this doesn’t mean Austin is headed to TNA in any fashion.

I think it's an awesome move. It's going to get wrestling fan eyes on Redneck Island and possibly those of WWE fans of Steve's. Viacom goes to great lengths to make sure everyone knows about their shows.
