The
New York Times is reporting that the UFC is in talks with Comcast to
buy the G4 gaming network from the cable giant. If the deal goes
through, UFC would move their programming from SpikeTV to their own
network. UFC's deal with Spike runs about six more months.
If
UFC leaves, that makes TNA Impact Wrestling easily the network's most
valuable show. Impact is usually the highest rated show on Spike while
UFC draws a better advertising rate and thus more money. With the MMA
group gone, TNA becomes even more vital to Spike's strategy than they
already are.
