Angle is boring, I'd rather see Lance Storm and Dean Malenko in TNA.

You say Angle is boring but want to see Lance Storm and Dean Malenko, although while good they are two of the most boring wrestler's in the industry.

No, they are great wrestlers who know how to wrestle and know many different moves. Angle is just an over-hyped Olympic star.

Is either Storm or Malenko even interested in wrestling anymore? Or is this just wishful thinking?

Maybe... I would like to see them in TNA.

I know Lance Storm writes about wrestling and has his own site.

I'm not sure about Dean Malenko.

I'm pretty sure Malenko works in talent relations or development with WWE.

Will, I was referring to the Wrestlelicious show being on FOX, not the TNA Knockouts show.

 

[Master_Gio]

He does.

As for Storm, hasn't he dissed TNA on his site a bunch of times?

Lance Storm has posted yet another rant after watching iMPACT!. He kept tabs on the actual amount of wrestling on the show. Storm wrote: "Am I the only one that noticed that TNA iMPACT! this week had less than 18 minutes of actual wrestling on the program. Official match times totaled, I believe, 17 minutes and 55 second. ECW has had more wrestling minutes than that on their show and ECW is but half the length. If we break down the entire 120 minutes of the program we have 18 minutes of wrestling (I rounded up), 32 minutes of commercials, and 70 minutes of skits, promos, and general stupidity. Keep in mind the name of this company is Total Nonstop Action, yet only 15% of this show was action. This leaves 27% of the show for commercials, and 58% of the show skits, comedy, and talking. There was even one stretch where they went 37 minutes with out a wrestling match. Can this even be called a wrestling show anymore?"

He's correct a wrestling program should be about wrestling.

And, as little as TNA wrestlers, wrestle they don't have any excuses.

Report: Homicide Requests TNA Release?

Homicide is telling friends that he asked for his release from TNA over a month ago, but his request was denied. Apparently he’s been frustrated by the company wanting to split up him and Hernandez. People close to the situation feel that he was given the X Division title in an attempt to make him want to stay around.

Ayako Hamada will be making her debut for the Shimmer indy company on Sunday, November 8, 2009 at the Berwyn Eagles Club in Berwyn, IL, just outside of Chicago.

I don't blame him. LAX needs to be together.

Why are they dismantling their Tag-Team division? It was doing well.

Bring back LAX and **** Money!

Roxxi Gone From TNA Already?

As noted earlier, former TNA Knockout Roxxi (Nicole Raczynski) worked an iMPACT! taping earlier this week to participate in the Knockouts Tag Team Championship Tournament. It was apparently a one-night return as Roxxi told people nobody said anything to her about returning as a regular nor was she offered a contract with the organization.

She had just started working with the AAA promotion in Mexico and contacted them to say even though she worked for TNA, she's still ready to work for them.

Roxxi was let go by TNA this past April after she and Rhaka Khan had a problem in a match that carried over backstage resulting in both being suspended. When Roxxi was let go, it was believed to be as result of Khan's relationship with Kurt Angle at the time.

I hope not.

Breaking News: Angelina Love Released From TNA

According to TNAWrestlingNews.com, former TNA Knockouts champion Angelina Love has been released by TNA. The reason for the release is that there was some form of issue with her work Visa either expiring or not being properly renewed. Love has been working under the Visa that she was issued when she got her WWE developmental deal. Due to her not having the proper paper work, TNA was said to have their hands tied, since they cannot legally use her without the proper paperwork complete.

It will be interested to see how TNA handles the situation, as Angelina Love and Velvet Sky had advanced to the finals of the Knockouts tag title tournament, which will conclude at the No Surrender PPV. Love and Sky, forming The Beautiful People, have been the top heel act on the Knockouts division since they formed their alliance.

Hulk Hogan Confirms He Wants To Go To TNA Wrestling

During an appearance on the Bubba the Love Sponge radio show Thursday morning, Hulk Hogan personally told Kurt Angle they should work a program together in TNA with Angle putting the "red, white, and blue" back on and turning face. The Olympic gold medalist concurred and said he could make it happen.

During Hogan's in-studio appearance alongside Brian Knobs, Bubba called Angle to discuss wrestling and women with the WWE Hall of Famer. After Hogan and Angle discussed the idea of Hogan coming to the organization to "turn this thing around," Bubba called TNA president Dixie Carter, but received her voice-mail. Bubba then played fantasy booker by laying out an elaborate plan the two could work in TNA, with both approving.

I hope she can renew her visa quickly and we don't have to find out.
This is not a good way for the Beautiful People to end.

The news isn't on TNA's site yet.
It might just be a horrible rumor.

At least I hope so.

I just hope she doesn't go to WWE.

She should be back, as popular as Angelina Love and the Beautiful People are this will hopefully be resolved soon.

Angelina Love's Bio & Photos Removed From TNA Website

The official TNA website removed Angelina Love's bio from the roster page this afternoon, thus confirming Internet reports saying she is no longer an active member of the TNA roster. Her photos have also been removed from the Knockouts photo gallery.

It was reported earlier today that TNA released Love after an apparent issue with her working visa not being renewed.

Jenna Morasca's Cryptic Post.

pparently in reference to Internet reports concerning her departure from TNA, Jenna Morasca wrote the following on her Twitter account today: "The REAL truth- coming soon.. Don't believe everything you read."

Premium Link Upgrade

There better be a good reason for this, when the "real truth" is revealed.

With TNA bowing to Angle, splitting up LAX, removing Jeff Jarrett, and so on, they are not making me happy.
These things better be fixed soon.

TNA Interested In Candice Michelle - Dixie Carter, "Hire only beautiful women."

TNAWrestlingNews.com has learned that TNA president Dixie Carter recently issued a mandate to strictly hire 'beautiful women'. It was noted that while she is solely interested in hiring 'beautiful women', she wants women who can actually wrestle.

As reported earlier, former WWE Diva Kristal Marshall is expected to join the promotion in the near future. TNA officials also have their sights set on another former Diva, that being Candice Michelle.

Michelle's name has been discussed in recent weeks in regards to bringing her in. She was released from WWE on June 17, 2009, shortly after being cleared to return to the ring. Hence, her ninety-day no-compete clause is set to expire two weeks from now.

What if someone who doesn't fit Carter's idea of "beautiful" can actually wrestle?

Talk about a hypocritical mandate, and from a female no less.
