Then, six weeks down the road, maybe those things aren\u2019t working right away and then re-do it all and start again. We\u2019re spinning our tires. We have to just decide a direction, decide who we\u2019re using, decide what we\u2019re doing, decide who we\u2019re showcasing, what we\u2019re trying to give the wrestling fans, and then give it to them on a consistent basis. That\u2019s the biggest thing for me is consistency. That\u2019s sort of like accountability. When you tune into Impact, you\u2019re getting a great wrestling match. You\u2019re getting a great storyline, you\u2019re getting a good women\u2019s match.
