- WWE's Joey Styles and TNA's Bob Ryder have engaged in a bit of a Twitter war, after Styles mentioned the recent attendance at a house show. Here is the exchange they had…

* Joey Styles: "TNA in Poughkeepsie NY last night didn't have Dreamer, Foley or Dudleys ...and didn't have sell out either. The local Indy sells out there."

* Bob Ryder: "Can't figure out why @JoeyStyles takes cheap shots at TNA. Especially given how often he has said he would like to work there."

* Joey Styles: "To clarify, I'm not criticizing TNA for not selling out but rather the TNA employee that didn't book past ECW wrestlers in NY so they did."

* Bob Ryder: "Glad to hear @JoeyStyles has all the answers to how to sell out buildings. WWE live event is down. They could use his help."

* Joey Styles: "Here's news much more important than my TNA musings; UFC bought Strikeforce! That is the MMA equivalent of WWE buying TNA."

Have no idea who the TNA guy is, but I agree with Joey Styles here.

Was just about to say I have no idea who that guy is as I've never heard of him. Find it very ironic though that a TNA guy is saying anything about anyone else taking shots since that's what TNA likes to do.

Surprised at a WWE employee even mentioning TNA on twitter. Perhaps Vince has loosened the tight grip he had over people mentioning TNA.

Bob Ryder is the guy that takes care of talent bookings and flights and such for TNA.

Happens quite a bit actually. Ziggler once tweeted that he was watching Impact and commented on the show as he was watching it. Orton has mentioned TNA a few times, Jericho is always tweeting about them.
