TNA fan Alan Wojcik has been banned from bringing his laptop to the Impact tapings in Orlando.

He was a regular correspondent for the Wrestling Observer website as he'd always send detailed Impact spoilers to the website mere minutes after the tapings had ended. TNA's trying to clamp down on spoilers spreading on the internet. Because TNA banned Wojcik from bringing his laptop to shows, he won't be attending shows altogether.

Seems TNA has started taking action against this Spoiler's Domination..lets see how far they can get success out of it..

comments people..

The Iron Sheik will be at RAW tomorrow night. Sheik is scheduled for a whiffle ball game in Albany, NY tonight and WWE are sending a limo to get him to MSG for the RAW show tomorrow night.

Also confirmed for RAW tomorrow night is John Cena & Umaga vs. Randy Orton & Carlito.

Due to a cost-cutting move, you're not going to be seeing Christy Hemme and Lance Hoyt on television for at least few more weeks. Because TNA is under pressure to cut financial losses, the duo were told that they won't be flown in for tonight's PPV nor the Impact tapings tomorrow night. Hemme lives in Playa Del Ray, Califorina and Hoyt lives in Dallas, Texas -- both cities are a long way to Orlando.

At an autograph signing in Tracy, California last week, Kurt Angle was asked about doing MMA. He said that he would have loved to have done it, but with all his injuries, he doesn't think it's going to happen. He also said that Chris Benoit was not a victim of the industry, and that he was responsible for his own actions. Angle said that if Benoit didn't like where he was, he could have gone to Japan, worked indies or signed with TNA. When the stats of wrestlers vs. other athletes were brought up, Angle said that they would have to be examined against rock stars and actors. He then said that the percentage in rehab would be the same in wrestling and TV acting.

The August 10th edition of TNA Today was the most viewed video of the day on Youtube.com.

WWE.com has a video of Bobby Lashley's Flex magazine shoot that took place before his surgery.

Umaga played the face role in a match against Carlito and Mr. Kennedy at the WWE RAW live show in
Kingston, RI on 8/12. Umaga got the pinfall on Carlito to retain his Intercontinental title in a match that was originally supposed to be Kennedy vs. Carlito until William Regal made it a 3-way title match.

Casildo sent the following: I was watching the Comedy Central roast of Flavor Flav last night and Jimmy Kimmel told Flavor Flav that Chris Benoit makes a better father than him, even though Flav has seven children and doesn't pay child support. Chyna was also in attendance at the roast.

it might be a good ploy from TNA for trying to ban these spoilers thing..soon they r going to have 2 hr slot on spike and they dont want these spoilers to spoil their ratings on TV..secondly,they have to get rid of these stuff if they want to be at par with WWE,which itself is not that safe from spoilers,but TNA is not as big as WWE..

The Benoit joke was distasteful.:disgust1:

But you don't have to look at the spoilers, the only people who look at spoilers are excited to see what is going to happen or don't care much about it and will just want to browse.

If you don't read the spoilers, then you're not gonna expect it. I don't care about them banning spoilers from iMPACT, I only read them when I know I won't be watching the show so it's no big loss.
