TNA getting rid of talents
It's been reported that there's a backstage feeling inside TNA that the officials are willing to get rid of a handful of wrestlers in the next few weeks. Althought there aren't any confirmed names, TNA officials have shown more open to grant releases to the people who ask for them. TNA is in need of a cost-cutting move due to latest contract renewal and they might let go some talent they haven't invested a lot into. There's a number of performers who haven't been requested to fly to Orlando for the last iMPACT! tapings, that could be a sign.

I bet they're saving up to give Pacman Jones another contract <_< But really, I think we know how they're gonna come up with the money to pay Kevin Nash to do a few elbows and a powerbomb in the ring four times a year.

Well, they already split Hemme off from the Rock n Rave Infection, I doubt Jimmy Rave is going to be in TNA much longer. Hopefully if they get rid of him, they at least job them out to the Motor City Machine Guns before they go, those guys need a win bad.

Yeah the Guns need a few wins (and a more kick-ass theme music too). But it'll be a shame to see Jimmy go. And I expect Lance would probably go with him - they tend to use Jimmy a lot more than Lance anyway. TNA are normally good with not releasing people on a whim and stuff like that. But I expect that there has to come a point where the purse strings (and/or the TV time) can't support the roster size. So... needs must I suppose. And yes Kev does look much better with silver hair.

Rave can go if he wants, but they should keep Lance around. They should also allow him to be more agile and to do his moonsault. He has a great moonsault, he did one at one of our indy shows last year and since then it baffles me why they'd not let the big man do one in a TNA ring.

Well, I suppose they could have put him in a program with Matt Morgan, sort of a battle of the new generation giants, but they sort of killed that possibility by having Morgan totally squash him as one of three guys in a row he had to face in the same match. I guess they could have Lance get pissed off about how he's been used and have another worked shoot angle, but really I'd just prefer they fire Vince Russo and have wrestling on the show.
