Less than a year after finding a new network home, TNA may be searching for a new station to broadcast Impact Wrestling.
Sting Rumored For WWE SummerSlam On Aug. 23
According to The Wrestling Observer, TNA is thinking about taking its franchise show away from Destination America come September after only moving to that network this past January.
Per the report, some TNA talents have privately been given an indication that TNA may be shopping for a new station to air Impact Wrestling.

The strategy reportedly is that some of the money they make from overseas networks to broadcast Impact could keep Dixie Carter's promotion afloat as it looks for a new network home.
TNA has had many financial issues in the past and have paid talents late as well, but the company has made moves to trim down its big contracts, mostly by parting ways with the most highly-paid talents on the roster.
TNA executives feel as though the organization is headed in the right direction financially and that it will survive no matter what happens during its quest for a new network.
There have also been rumors that the company's business model will be changing soon.
Impact Wrestling aired on Spike TV for several years, but it was revealed last October that the network was looking to go in a different direction and part ways with the professional wrestling realm.
TNA's flagship show remained on the airwaves until Carter found a new home for it, which proved to be Destination America. The company then switched networks for good in January.
At the time of the negotiations, there were said to be many networks interested in carrying the program, so it's possible those parties could still be interested in partnering up with TNA. It's also possible that they've moved on after being spurned by the organization the first time around.
Destination America recently expanded its foray into pro wrestling, taking on Ring of Honor as well.
It remains to be seen what will happen, but Impact Wrestling could once again be on the move.
