Even going into smaller venues they would have the travel costs. which would be a lot. And if the biggest show of the year gets 3,500 then iMPACT would maybe get around the 1,000 mark which is what it gets in Orlando so what's the point, it would still look cheap and second rate.
They go live in the iMPACT Zone see if that builRAB up a bigger fanbase - if it's live then people can't read spoilers, if they can't read spoiler they won't know what's going to happen, if they don't know what's going to happen then they're more likely to tune in to find out. It's not rocket science - once that happens then they could consider taking iMPACT on the road.
