Today's News

TNA:


TNA are re-structuring contracts, re-signing stars, and offering big money to external stars, as their potential sale is rumoured to be hinging on having an exclusive roster of talent in place. The office have also reportedly told one member of the roster that Dixie Carter and John Gaburick would still be running the show, no matter who eventually buys the promotion.



Rose not giving up:


Adam Rose says he is happy with whatever WWE decide to do, but has decided to re-post his critical tweets against his ban, including his doctor's letter. He had removed all of his defensive tweets yesterday, apparently at the request of the office, adding that his family is more important to him than his job.



Paige coming back:


Paige will attend an indie event in Ipswich this weekend, to support her dad, before returning to the States, and to WWE.



Eric Young:


Eric Young has confirmed he is in talks to join WWE.



Hall Of Famer backing Trump:


Kevin Nash got a ton of heat on Twitter yesterday for wearing a Donald Trump T-shirt.



Injury:


Blake of NXT has damaged his MCL.



WWE releases:


Hornswoggle, Alex Riley, Zeb Colter, El Torito, Cameron and Damien Sandow have been dropped today. Riley just weeks after returning from injury, and Hornswoggle hasn't been seen since he took a drugs ban last year, but was recently celebrating 10 years with WWE. Zeb and Torito have been off TV since their last angles ended. Cameron has of course been at the center of controversy this week, after joining Ryback in attacking WWE on social media. Sandow is probably the most surprising, he worked TV's just this week, and has a huge fan base.


The company also confirmed that WWE Alum Santino Marella has been released from his, until now, still active contract. He hasn't wrestled since suffering a career ending neck injury, and is concentrating on running his school and gym in Canada.

As well as the above King Barrett says he has come to an agreement to end his WWE career a month early, and has also left the promotion today. He is not going to continue to wrestle, and is looking for new challenges.


WrestleMania celeb coming back?:


Floyd Mayweather is contemplating coming out of retirement to fight UFC star Conor McGregor. The boxer took offense to the UFC man saying he could take him in under 30 seconds.



Lilian Garcia:


Lilian Garcia has missed the past week of WWE action. She has had to deal with a family emergency.



Ryback row:


Dave Meltzer is claiming that, despite his denials, Ryback's argument with WWE on Monday was about money. He apparently demanded that WWE paid for travel and hotel bills when he was on the road for them, they refused.



Major star released?:


WWE have had a major clearout today, as already noted. One other ''Really big'' name has also reportedly joined them, although is not yet offical. That name is possibly Randy Orton. All of the departed stars have already been transferred onto the Alumni section of the WWE website, Randy has been taken down altogether, and when clicked redirects to the WWE home page.



Chyna:


WWE have added the late Chyna to their Alumni roster.
