UPDATED: TNA DENIES WRESTLEMANIA WEEK TAPINGS

By Mike Johnson on 2016-12-06 08:58:00

In an update from my original story, TNA sources have denied they will be taping at Universal Studios Wrestlemania week in Orlando.  One source did concede there are talks of running "a show" that week in the area, but the venue has not been confirmed and cited that the show would not be taped for Television.

The original sourcing for the story came from a source at Universal Studios in Orlando.  TNA claims that story is incorrect.  I apologize for any error.

NOTE: ORIGINAL STORY BELOW.

Wrestlemania week in Orlando, Florida will be even busier. 

Sources at Universal Studios have confirmed that TNA has booked dates over Wrestlemania weekend to tape episodes of Impact Wrestling.

The current plan is to have a "live" broadcast on Thursday 3/30/17, a matinee taping on Friday 3/31/17 and two tapings on Saturday 4/1/17.   The remainder of the schedule is still being finalized we are told but the company would tape additional dates following that weekend with the idea those tapings would take the company into the summer of 2017.

TNA is slated to tape episodes from 1/5/17-1/12/17 to carry them through the first quarter of 2017 through 3/23/17.
