If memory serves me correctly, Dixie has been involved from the start as well, but used to be a silent partner. It was only when she got daddy to agree to put money in from Panda that she stepped up to the frontlines. That was pretty much the point that things nosedived for TNA.

I bet Jeff was happy as fuck to get that kind of cash injection, but little did he realise it would spell the end of him as a power player, and the end of TNA as a genuine contender.
Fuck, even his dad fucked off and took a talent he discovered, to WWE, thats how much faith he had in Dixie.
