Trent Baretta was on TNA Destination X special last night under the name Greg Marisciulo while Jigsaw wrestled on the show on Rubix. Both are scheduled for the DGUSA events in Queens on July 27th and Manhattan on July 28th. Before the rumors get started we want to let you know that their TNA appearances will have no affect on their current or future DGUSA/EVOLVE bookings. They will not use their TNA names in DGUSA or EVOLVE either. Please look at the lineups listed below to see the top caliber matches they will be in at DGUSA next weekend. We greatly look forward to having both these exceptional talents at the DGUSA events in New York City.

Those two matches are:
Ode To The First DGUSA Show Eight Man Tag
Jigsaw, Fire Ant, Frightmare & Amasis vs. Chuck Taylor, Ophidian & The Batiri

Special Challenge Match
AR Fox vs. Trent Baretta

Thought that was good to acknowledge and pretty cool. Loved seeing them on Destination X last night, but am also glad it won't hinder their DGUSA / EVOLVE bookings. And yeah, I kept wanting to call Rubix "Jigsaw" throughout his match last night.

I have a feeling Jigsaw won't be full time in TNA as long as he is in Quackenbush's pocket. Since Quack is very selective with were his guys can work full time.

True enough. I wouldn't mind seeing him in TNA at all, but at the same time as long as he's got work I'm happy for the guy. I don't suppose there has been any talk of him parting ways with Quackenbush in the foreseeable future has there?

Although come to think of it -- not to knock TNA -- but with them cutting talent lately people like Jigsaw and Baretta might prefer not being signed on with them right now.

I don't think Jig will ever leave Quack. Quack made Jigsaw (trained him and all) and they have this insanely deep and planned story going with Chikara which included killing off the company and setting up new companies throughout the North East. He'll be locked up with work for a while.

And yeah, considering how TNA is right now with talent I guess -keyword guess- that they are more comfortable working for them on a pay per appearance basis instead of sitting on a contract, not getting used and risk getting late pay. Plus Trent does Japan now, he'll be fine financially.

Ahhh, I gotcha. I didn't realize they went that far back. Makes sense then. I'm all for good talent having solid, steady work going no matter which promotion it's under, so I am glad they're both doing well. I agree, right now doing a per appearance deal seems best. It frees them up to keep doing their main work while getting a little extra money on the side and helping get their names out there more.

Yeah, especially in the X-division which seems to be the part of the TNA roster that changes in talent the most per appearance seems like the best deal.

If anything this just gives them more appearances for a weak/mediocre build. Sanjay is doing that RoH tourney, right? Baretta is doing this....Shadoxicity you want to bet on tna this week? I've got manik winning the x division title.

The rumer online is that TNA was very satisfied with their performances and is looking to sign both Jigsaw and Trent to a contract in a future.

The other indy names TNA is possibly looking to sign are Homicide (with Eric Bischoff being #1 pulling for him), Rashad Cameron as a pack with Tony Nese, then The American Wolves, Shane Hollister and even Lince Dorado.
