TNA Films Promo At WWE Headquarters
On a recent TNA “iMPACT!”, BG and Kip James abruptly quit TNA Wrestling. The duo were reportedly frustrated with TNA management for what they perceived as “being held back” – and the last anyone saw of them, both stars left the arena in a fit of anger.
As part of their final commitment to TNA Wrestling, BG and Kip were scheduled to compete on Saturday’s show in Connecticut, but due to the event being cancelled, they apparently had some extra time on their hands.
As you’ll see in the below exclusive video, the tag team appear to be in quite a different mood!
TNAwrestling.com received this footage from BG and Kip on Sunday afternoon with a note attached that said the following:
“See you on Thursday night – VKM”

WWE Headliner Regrets Re-signing; Wishes He Would Have Went to TNA
The morale in the WWE locker room has been on shaky grounds as of late. One headliner told a backstage source that he regrets his recent decision to sign a new long term deal with WWE, saying that he’d rather work in TNA.
"The guys who used to be marks for being in WWE are starting to see TNA as a better place to be," said one WWE wrestler. "TNA is seen as a viable alternative by more and more guys." They continued.
Many guys in the WWE locker room feel that TNA only has so many “big money” spots and by signing long term deals with WWE, it leaves them with little to no leverage. Apparently WWE realizes the lack of morale in the locker room and are encouraging guys with expiring deals to re-sign several months in advance to keep them from headling a WWE event one week to showing up on TNA programming the next.

I'm guessing the guy who said this is "The Crippler" Chris Beniot cuz he just recently re-signed with WWE to a new contract.

The latest issue of WWE Magazine featuring Edge on the cover includes an article that says that Lita may soon be “moonsaulting” away from wrestling. While it’s interesting that several big names are walking away from WWE as of late, this comes as no surprise as Lita has planned for some time now on taking time off from the business.
The five week total for “The Marine” starring John Cena is now up to $17,945,427.

The Big Show Leaving Soon, McMahon Cartoon Delayed, Claudio Update
http://www.wwe.com/shows/ecw/extremi...3005536/04.jpg
Big Show's back problems have worsened and he plans on at least temporarily leaving the company in a few weeks. Show was taken off the European house show tour and replaced by Paul Heyman. Its pretty much a guarantee that he'll be losing his title during the elimination chamber match, and it just may very well be the last match of his career. Then again, he's committed to WWE until at least "early December", so maybe he'll wrestle another match or two right after the pay-per-view. Also, he legitimately weighs 530 pounds these days.
Claudio Castagnoli signed his WWE developmental contract and should be starting in DSW at the start of 2007. This leaves ROH with about six weeks to change the tag team titles.

WWE.com posted the following message regarding the Vince McMahon cartoon on WWE.com, which was to have debuted today:
Mr. McMahon’s "Kiss My Ass" cartoon, which was to have debuted today, has been delayed due to the stubbornness of one of its stars. The cartoon’s director claims that although Mr. McMahon was great to work with, his ass often refused to leave his trailer, demanded daily massages, and would "butt" heads with everyone around him. The ass was not available for comment, but sources close to the prominent posterior say his mood of late has been crappy. Stay tuned to WWE.com for the premier of Mr. McMahon's "Kiss My Ass" cartoon.

TNA Interested In Scott Hall, Kevin Nash Not Under Contract, Chris Jericho Update
http://www.wrestlingzone.ru/images/hall2.jpg
TNA officials are curious about how Scott Hall is doing these days, mostly because they always get questions about him. However, after his appearance at Fan Fest two weekends ago, the reports on him weren't good due to the considerable amount of weight he has gained in the past year or so. The weight gain will probably stifle TNA's interest in Hall.
http://www.mercuryqueen.homestead.co...PICS/Nash5.jpg
Apparently, Kevin Nash is not officially under contract to TNA. He is working under a "handshake deal" with Jeff Jarrett since his limited dates deal expired on his old contract a few months ago. Nash said that he has given his word to Jarrett that he won't leave TNA for WWE.

People who are friends with Chris Jericho don't expect him to be wrestling any time soon.
