Spike TV was set to drop TNA's flagship show from its network, but things have reportedly changed as Spike and one of the channels on the Discovery network have been said to be the front-runners to land Impact Wrestling.   

PWInsider reports that there is a belief within some people in TNA that a new television deal has been signed and will be announced shortly, but there is no confirmation on that.

When a fan asked Carter on Twitter when TNA fans can expect an announcement, she wrote the following:

TNA has been linked to Destination America, which is a branch of the Discovery Channel and is available in 60 million homes and about 52 percent of the country. Spike TV has also been in the mix, though there are mixed reports on the validity of that.

Wrestlingheadlines.com reports that there seems to be a discrepancy as to whether or not Spike TV is actually in the running to keep Impact Wrestling on the network. Some people have grown frustrated with the lack of announcement for TNA's future, and were told that Spike is in the running.

Others, meanwhile, have been told that Spike TV isn't in the running but it should be known within the next week whether or not Destination America will carry Impact Wrestling.

Spike TV has reportedly wanted to get out of the professional wrestling business, which is why it was dropping TNA in the first place, but perhaps there was a change of heart.

Bully Ray, who is no longer under contract with TNA, took to Twitter to criticize the company for its lack of communication with its talents:

TNA has only filmed enough episodes to get through Nov. 19 while it will be pre-empted the following week on Nov. 26 due to it being Thanksgiving Eve.

Spike TV is expected to air "Best of TNA" installments on Dec. 3, 10 and 17 and Spike TV hasn't decided whether or not to air new episodes on Dec. 24 and 31 due to the Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve holidays.

The Nov. 19 edition of Impact Wrestling could very well be the final episode to air on Spike TV if the two sides don't end up agreeing to a new deal.

It seems the state of TNA Impact Wrestling could be known within the next couple of days.
