Troy, everyone would rather think TNA doesn't make money than they do so people just assume that a million dollar company couldn't pay talent like Jesse Neal enough to live their lives. It's just like another reason to hate TNA and it never seemed anywhere legit to me.

Sting was legit injured in tonight's main event of the TNA tapings.

In a match for the Feb 9th go-home Impact, it was Sting & Storm over Roode & Ray. Sting blew out his heel in an innocuous looking spot. Sting made Roode submit in the scorpion for the finish, then ref Brian Hebner did the X sign with his arms and sprinted down the aisle to the back to get help. Sting did a brief promo praising the fans, then said he'd heard something pop in his heel. Sting then brawled very gingerly with Bully Ray to the back, scuppering what appeared to be a Hogan & Sting & Storm vs Roode & Ray & Angle dark match. Instead, Hogan & Storm did a 2 on 3 cleaning house, before the Hogan pose down.

Sting said that he thought he blew out his heel in the final match at today's tapings in London. The torn Achilles tendon, if that is the injury, at this stage of his life could be an in-ring career ender.

I NEVER want to see anyone get hurt. But with Sting, and his age, etc. this actually might be good for the health and future of TNA. Obviously, not good for Sting, but with him even being in the title picture the last couple of years, I think it's really hindered TNA and the progress of younger and better attractions they have.

This doesn't deserve it's own thread

Brian Kendrick has been removed from TNA Wrestling’s roster page on ImpactWrestling.com. This would indicate that he has parted ways with the company.

Kendrick’s second TNA run culminated with him capturing the X Division Championship from Abyss last July at Destination X. After dropping the title to Austin Aries at No Surrender, he failed in his attempt to regain the belt at Bound for Glory. He had only competed in one televised match since then.

He was used a lot when he first re-signed with TNA and was the focus on the X Division for a bit but for some reason once he dropped the title he completely dropped out of the picture. If he is indeed gone could we see a return of THE Brian Kendrick or will Spanky return to ROH/DGUSA etc?

[Luscious Lou]

He wasn't being used lately so it isn't the biggest loss. He's always great for Indy feds so hopefully I see him show up in one of them I watch. It doesn't look like his career is ever going to get to the next level really.

Wasn't a fan of Kendrick's most recent run in TNA. And his 'release' hasn't come as a surprise, since he hasn't been on TV for months.

I don't see him going back to WWE. So he'll probably stick to indy feds. Maybe there's a chance he could return to ROH. Or maybe Gabe will want him for DGUSA/EVOLVE.

[Scott]

Could see in in either to be honest. He is a nice Indy Fed guy. Has some name recognition and can still go.

It's been pretty much confirmed now

Brian Kendrick is gone from TNA, ending his second run with the company. A TNA source cited that Kendrick was released.

Kendrick, who had been a pretty pushed X-Division talent last year, disappeared off TNA TV a few months back. Last month, we had heard word that Kendrick was departing but TNA sources stated he was still with the promotion.

Well, he's free and clear now.

Kendrick is already taking some independent dates and is set for a March FWE event. in New York City.

[Troy]

Maybe we will see him reunite with Paul London on the indy circuit now that he is definitely gone from TNA.

tbh i dislike both paul london and brian kendrick, they were decent as a tag team but nothing much else, the gimmick he used in tna was god dam awfull and i can just seem him going back to roh or maybe dragons gate
