MightyJordan Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 No word yet on what Ricardo Rodriguez was suspended for by the E. But there's rumors that he had been taking fat burners.

Rappy Veteran Posted July 3, 2013 Veteran Share Posted July 3, 2013 Sources have informed WZ of some behind the scenes news and chaos at TNA Impact wrestling. We've been told Christian York got released Tuesday and Taeler Hendrix did not sign a new contract to stay with the company. More departures are expected soon that vary from cuts or talents requesting their release. The relationship with OVW as a training center seems to be "in shambles" as one source described it. Problems have came up particularly with former head trainer Rip Rodgers concerning money. It seems many internally are questioning TNA's direction and if they know what they're doing or want to do. In addition, sources are saying Al Snow, who is working as a road agent for the company, has been making promises to wrestlers which he can't fulfill because he doesn't have the power that he acts like he has.

So that's five releases from TNA: Taeler Hendrix, Crimson, Joey Ryan, Madison Rayne, and Christian York. Meanwhile, Taz has signed a new contract with them... Javascript is not enabled or refresh the page to view. Click here to view the Tweet According to PWInsider.com, the releases were made as a cost cutting measure in TNA, and the above names were being paid a monthly guarantee with an additional fee when they were booked for events. TNA officials felt those cut were not being used regularly so there was no need to keep them under contract. Looks like TNA's doing some (late) spring cleaning of their own, and it's mostly Gut Check winners who've been released. The only one I'll miss out of the lot is Taeler Hendrix. Most people say Madison Rayne instead, but I couldn't really stand her; she was like . Things are potentially even more chaotic than you mentioned though, Rappy... According to ProWrestling.net, sources with TNA have said the company was, and still may be several weeks behind on paying some of its workers. The report indicates that a "prominent former TNA champion" is saying they were, at one point, six weeks behind on payroll. :/ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/621597-the-big-wrestling-thread/page/401/#findComment-595798642 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Spike TV suddenly turn their back on them, then they'll be in the s**t.

They won't like the bad publicity, their downfall is still offering guys like Hogan,Sting and Angle massive contracts and also stupid deals for Rampage and King Mo who really have no business in TNA Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/621597-the-big-wrestling-thread/page/401/#findComment-595798672 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost5525 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 F4WOnline.com is reporting that WWE used Sting in their video packages last night highlighting former World Heavyweight Champions for a reason. There are discussions going around backstage in WWE that Sting is once again interested in joining the company. While he hasn't opened direct negotiations with the company, he has sent feelers to WWE about joining them. There is said to be a lot of confidence and positive vibes on WWE's side that Sting will join their roster eventually. I'd like to see him make a run in the WWE...it'd be better than TNA... TNAs becoming a sinking ship..just like WCW was (which i liked before Bishoff and Hogan destroyed it) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/621597-the-big-wrestling-thread/page/401/#findComment-595798942 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MightyJordan Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 The Ring of Honor contracts of both Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards are set to expire on August 1st, and there is at least interest on WWE's part in these two talents. Edwards and Richards were reportedly recommended to WWE by Sean Waltman.

MightyJordan Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 According to The Wrestling Observer, believe it or not, several WWE officials were upset with CM Punk for tweeting backstage about how good the Chicago Blackhawks vs Boston Bruins Stanley Cup Finals game was on 6/24. Punk sent out the tweet during a live Raw broadcast, and several officials went as far as to blame Punk for the low Raw rating that week. Talk about clutching at straws.
