I'm starting to wonder about AJ's character. He's not really getting any sort of reaction, as if fans don't know what to make of him.
When Sting was doing the character it was one of WCW's big stories. With AJ in TNA, it just seems to be plodding with no real aim. I do feel for AJ, as he's an extremely talented worker, He just needs to have a storyline to work to give his character some sort of purpose. Also, in regards to Rampage. Has he had any wrestling training? Could he get in the ring and work a match for example now that he's in the MEM or is he just their backup or similar. |

I think the Knockouts are the one indisputable area in which TNA outperforms WWE.

Speaking of the Knoutouts division, another one bites the dust.
http://www.diva-dirt.com/2013/07/16/...leased-by-tna/ An already small division has just got smaller, who is left, Mickie, Gael, Tayrn, and ODB (even if she is a ref now), have I missed anyone?? Such a shame really, as it used to be a selling point of TNA, and miles ahead of the Divas, now the situation has somewhat been reversed. |

![]() ![]() So that takes the number up to four, if we don't include ODB, that is not really a good thing, where are the Blossom Twins? Even having them would help, as it would mean two more people to have feuds with, as at the moment, they are going to run out pretty quickly. |

Talent cuts now affecting the office at TNA IMPACT Wrestling
Quote:
TNA executive producer Eric Bischoff commented on the departure of Tara (a/k/a Lisa Marie Varon) and DOC (a/k/a Drew Hankinson). "Best of luck and much respect for Marie Varon," Bischoff wrote. "Marie is a positive, talented, powerful performer that I will miss. Kick ass girl! http://www.prowrestling.net/artman/p...10032421.shtml"Nothing but respect for Drew Hankinson. Hoping to get to work with him some day in the future. Great 'Big Man' with a great work ethic." Following Bischoff online at Twitter.com/EBischoff Powell's POV: For those who missed it earlier, TNA announced that Tara had been released from her contract, and then Hankinson announced that his contract expired on July 12 and the two sides officially parted ways on Tuesday. Quote:
Dot Net TNA News: Top executive expected to leave the company, agent out, as major office shakeup continues http://www.prowrestling.net/artman/p...10032422.shtml
Jul 16, 2013 - 10:20 PM By Jason Powell The restructuring within TNA has led to a number of wrestlers being released from their contracts or the company allowing talent contracts to expire. It is also affecting the office side of the company. Multiple sources report that Bruce Prichard, Sr. Vice President of Programming and Talent Relations, was among the office personnel asked to restructure his deal. Prichard is said to have rejected that request. It is believed that his days with TNA are coming to an end barring an unexpected twist. Powell's POV: Meanwhile, the TNA agents were also asked to restructure their deals to a per night agreement. The word in TNA circles is that D-Lo Brown agreed to the per night agreement recently only to be fired by the company shortly thereafter. An attempt to reach Brown for comment on his status was not successful. |

As far as Pritchard goes, I think he was never really going to survive almost letting Bobby Roode's contract expire. If the situation regarding D'Lo is true though, it's a bit of a shitty thing to do because he apparently accepted a pay cut and was still released ..
Personally, I think TNA are counting the cost of taking impact on the road and not having the financial base that the WWE has, so they're having to cut costs and streamline. |

Don West knew how to make great calls. The closest thing we've ever had to JR. |

Taz is still in the company. There was a situation involving him at the tapings (not gonna spoil it because it still has to air on Challenge) but basically it's nothing serious and he'll be back at the next tapings in 2 weeks.

I normally just sit back and enjoy TNA for what it is and don't try to be too much of an anorak, but can somebody tell me what the Sabin match was all about? I thought they were pushing him as a bit of a golden boy and I can understand that it is good for the X-division guy to win at an X-division special, but he spent most of the time lying there with Bully undressing him while supposedly pounding on his knee now and again.... and then Sabin wins by a cheat? Oh and what is supposed to have happened with Kurt in the truck?
