-- Sabu was backstage at Monday's Impact taping looking for work. They told him that they have no interest in his services at the moment. Management told him that there are currently no open spots on the roster. They said that they're looking to focus more of their energy on their underutilized home grown talent. Booker T is an exception to that rule since he is considered to a top star in the industry.

-- Rob Van Dam has had a few discussions with TNA, but it's nothing serious yet. He's been telling friends that he wants to rest for the several months before he returns to the ring.

The only reason i wouldnt want Kurt Angle to leave TNA is because he adds to the star power for them, otherwise he can just leave. Christian would take his place anyways, plus with Booker T coming in, he would be replaced nicely.

So where did it say He Wants To Leave TNA? That's all he said was that he's intrested in MMA! News reporters trying to stir up shit again i say.

It seems Booker T's all over the news with his TNA spot & his own promotion.

As for Sabu, i still think though that TNA will bring him in for maybe just a brief stint in some sort of program with Abyss wether they face each-other or tag with each-other. Like maybe James Mitchell's Monsters Vs a Team led by Abyss & Sabu or something of that nature.

Angle said he might consider a career swap from Pro Wrestling to MMA.
TNA = Pro Wrestling
So he didnt have to say he was going to quit TNA, as that is what he was reffering to.

LOL, before I even read your post and I read teh actual news, I was going to say the exact same thing. People are just so stupid. LOL, next headline: (John Cena is injured) JOHN CENA LEAVES WWE!!!

As for CapnCharisma dude, Angle also said he would leave wrestling to be an actor later on. THats not going to happen for some time. I expect him to do his MMA stuff that he is set to do, but that shouldnt take a lot of time off from TNA, seeing as how they meet like 3 times a month

Actually Christian came first. Before TNA used to bring up guys from the Indys now they just pick up former WWE wrestlers because they think they'll bring in more ratings.

^ What has RVD got to do with Angle talking MMA?

& thanks CM... Funny how as soon as the thread name is changed, everybody stops stating that Kurt Angle is leaving.
