Backstage Problems Between TNA and Taz?

Wrestling Websites have reported the following:

- We noted earlier that Taz missed the recent set of TNA Impact Wrestling tapings and that repercussions could be coming for him. It wasn’t the actual TV tapings he missed but a voice-over session in Nashville to record commentary for the Impact episodes that have been taped.

PWInsider reports that there are issues between TNA and Taz, who has removed all references to TNA from his Twitter page. The reported TNA pay issues apparently led to Taz refusing to get on his flight from New York to Nashville.



Regarding the commentary for Impact, Josh Mathews reportedly worked alone for the episode that will air this Friday night but that could change as they may edit it again with commentary from a second person. For what it’s worth, TNA recently tried Al Snow out as an announcer.


Looks like we may see the end of another TNA veteran. Not good TNA, not good.


Thoughts?

I can't believe people aren't talking about this, it's actually pretty big news. Not being able to pay talent on multiple occasions is one of the worst things TNA has ever done, right up there with enabling an alcoholic and allowing a drugged up dude to go out and wrestle on a PPV. I don't care how much you love the company, this is really, really bad and the strongest indicator yet that TNA may not be long for the world.

Not too bothered about Taz leaving, I wasn't his biggest fan on commentary and I much prefer Josh Matthews as a commentator. I am curious to see who becomes the other commentator with Matthews though.
