Christian Pulled From TNA HOF Ceremony?

According to sources, WWE star Christian is no longer scheduled to appear for TNA the day before the Bound for Glory PPV at TNA's first ever Hall of Fame ceremony. Highlights of the ceremony, which will feature the induction of Sting, will air the following night on Spike TV.

Per the agreement between WWE and TNA to allow Ric Flair to appear at both the 2012 WWE Hall of Fame and Wrestlemania 28, Christian was originally scheduled to make two appearances for TNA. He appeared at the Slammiversary PPV back in June and it was made very clear at the time that he didn't want to be there.

Christian remains out recovering from recent surgery on his shoulder.

Doesn't surprise me much since Luger's inducting Sting, I can't see why Christian was needed at all.

Damn no ONE MORE appearance from Christian Cage. Don't blame Christian though for not wanting to go back, he must look at it now and just shake his head.

Fair enough if Christian doesn't want to do it but I wonder what compensation WWE will need to give TNA in place of him. Maybe they will have to pay them $XXX amount in return since they didn't give everything that they were supposed to as part of the deal.

TNA more than likely put a compensation statement in the contract if Christian wasn't going to be available or couldn't be used for one or both of the appearances. More than likely being paid.

I don't understand why he has such hate towards TNA, unless it was made public and shit. I haven't read anything about Christian not being happy with TNA, especially considering he was their World Champion. But oh well, I don't think this will bother him too much.

He might just be over his time with TNA. He is signed with WWE so he probably wants to do well there and not have to worry about a company that he worked for years ago.

I think its due to the fact nobody in the company gets to work another promotions show let alone on live TV, I think Christian see's that it will hurt his status in WWE which I think is a pretty fair conclusion the way his run went after he appeared at Slammiversary.

I still say its a bullshit story that Christian was depushed because he appeared on TNA. It was part of an agreement between the two companies and Christian didn't even want to do it.
