This fire sale of talent is a bad sign, but, I am holding off the death bell for Thursday. Destination X live on Spike TV. No promotion from the network is a bad sign. It is going to take an amazing show to turn the fortunes around for this company. If not, look for another wrestling company to get the slot.

How is Knux still around if D.O.C. is gone?
I like D.O.C. but they weren't using him. It certainly cuts into the Aces & Eights numbers advantage.
Tara is a shame. Hopefully she isn't unemployed for long. I know she has a restaurant though. Smart move.
I'd love to see both in LOW though...
I continue to think this just isn't looking good but TNA very recently signed some new agreement with a European TV station. Who knows. Maybe they really are just trimming the fat to take the company in a different direction.

They have to trim some expenses. Word around the campfire is that Panda Energy does not wish to put any more money into the company, and that it needs to start generating a profit. Best way to do that is to stop paying people who don't contribute to improving the company either in ratings, buy rates, or ticket/merchandise sales.

I hope that this is truly the case and that they dont trim the fat so much that we are left with Sting, Hogan, Kurt Angle, etc., etc. They need to continue building stars.

That sucks. I know Tara hasn't been used much but she is still better than some of the knockouts they have on the rooster now. Did she ask for her release? She's not better than Mickie James or Gail Kim and the two matches I've watched Taryn Terrell have in the past two months are far better than anything I've ever seen Tara/Victoria in. I will give you that she's better than Velvet Sky but hell, anyone is.

Bruce Prichard and D-Lo Brown added to the list. I wonder if this company will still have a staff by the end of the summer.

I agree. Will anyone still be around?

If anyone from TNA is reading this, I will gladly work for you to help get the company turned around. My asking price - ice cream. Lots and lots of ice cream.

If that was the case, they'd be firing Hogan, Hogan, and Bischoff instead. Just think of the money they could save, in both the short and long term.

Jesse Sorenson has also been released now. Not really a shocker but it's gotta sting a little considering he was still injured from a match in their ring.
