TNA Announcer Todd Kenely has been dropped from the promotion's announce team. TNA sources indicate Kenely was informed by the promotion at the Slammiversary PPV, which as of now, was his final appearance.
Kenely was brought into the promotion by Executive Producer Eric Bischoff, who had used him on several previous projects. He debuted for the company in October 2012.
The plan going forward is to revert back to the old Impact Wrestling two man announcing team of Mike Tenay and Taz.
TNA sources indicated the door was left open for Kenely to be used down the line if a role was found for him. He was not dropped because of unhappiness with his work, but rather a decision to streamline the announcing team and he was not under contract and had the least seniority.

Shame. He was a good announcer and actually helped streamline the product and move it along, since Tenay and Taz tend to get stuck in nonsensical blabber. At least the door is open for him to return but still a shame he had to be let go in the first place.

Now seriously, this heel Taz is a maniac and I like to listen to him.

But him and Tenay alone? Again? Fuck off TNA, and fuck yourselves. Vomit.

I have a feeling that the announcing is going to end up as a train wreck which will lead to Kenely being brought back. Tenay just doesn't have it to be a play by play man anymore and Taz will get stuck in his normal ramblings going nowhere. How long it will take for kenely to be brought back I dunno but I think he will be brought back eventually.
Or Crimson as the new play by play guy to piss off the fans.

Kinda true, because as good as he is, there's those 2 who suck, so he drowns in them. +1 - 2 = -1


It's usually like:

Taz: says something dumb
Tenay: Your a jerk face
Kenely: Tries to say something relevant to the match
Tenay: Aces & Eights
Taz: hahaha, something dumb
Tenay: gets butt hurt
Kenely: makes a good point about what they were arguing about while tying it in to what is happening in the match
Taz: omg stop ganging up on me what did I ever do

or some other unbearable banter

Sounds like an average skype chat with Crayo and Xanth.

Anyway does anyone not mute Total Nonstop Fail's commentary? If you aren't doing it you're a jackoff.

I hate not hearing crowd reactions though. Watching wrestling without sound is lame. I wish I could literally just mute the commentary but having no sound doesn't work for me.
