Sources have informed WZ of some behind the scenes news and chaos at TNA Impact wrestling.

We've been told Christian York got released Tuesday and Taeler Hendrix did not sign a new contract to stay with the company. More departures are expected soon that vary from cuts or talents requesting their release.

The relationship with OVW as a training center seems to be "in shambles" as one source described it. Problems have came up particularly with former head trainer Rip Rodgers concerning money.

It seems many internally are questioning TNA's direction and if they know what they're doing or want to do. In addition, sources are saying Al Snow, who is working as a road agent for the company, has been making promises to wrestlers which he can't fulfill because he doesn't have the power that he acts like he has.

and Crimson as well.

 

So that's five releases from TNA: Taeler Hendrix, Crimson, Joey Ryan, Madison Rayne, and Christian York. Meanwhile, Taz has signed a new contract with them...

According to PWInsider.com, the releases were made as a cost cutting measure in TNA, and the above names were being paid a monthly guarantee with an additional fee when they were booked for events. TNA officials felt those cut were not being used regularly so there was no need to keep them under contract.

 

Looks like TNA's doing some (late) spring cleaning of their own, and it's mostly Gut Check winners who've been released. The only one I'll miss out of the lot is Taeler Hendrix. Most people say Madison Rayne instead, but I couldn't really stand her; she was like

Things are potentially even more chaotic than you mentioned though, Rappy...

According to ProWrestling.net, sources with TNA have said the company was, and still may be several weeks behind on paying some of its workers. The report indicates that a "prominent former TNA champion" is saying they were, at one point, six weeks behind on payroll.

 

:/

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if in a year or so from now TNA won't exist

 

Nah, they won't be gone in a year; they've got Spike TV propping them up (as well as Dixie Carter's parents' company, Panda Energy). If Spike TV suddenly turn their back on them, then they'll be in the s**t.

They won't like the bad publicity, their downfall is still offering guys like Hogan,Sting and Angle massive contracts and also stupid deals for Rampage and King Mo who really have no business in TNA

F4WOnline.com is reporting that WWE used Sting in their video packages last night highlighting former World Heavyweight Champions for a reason.

There are discussions going around backstage in WWE that Sting is once again interested in joining the company. While he hasn't opened direct negotiations with the company, he has sent feelers to WWE about joining them. There is said to be a lot of confidence and positive vibes on WWE's side that Sting will join their roster eventually.

 

 

I'd like to see him make a run in the WWE...it'd be better than TNA... TNAs becoming a sinking ship..just like WCW was (which i liked before Bishoff and Hogan destroyed it)

The Ring of Honor contracts of both Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards are set to expire on August 1st, and there is at least interest on WWE's part in these two talents. Edwards and Richards were reportedly recommended to WWE by Sean Waltman.
According to The Wrestling Observer, believe it or not, several WWE officials were upset with CM Punk for tweeting backstage about how good the Chicago Blackhawks vs Boston Bruins Stanley Cup Finals game was on 6/24. Punk sent out the tweet during a live Raw broadcast, and several officials went as far as to blame Punk for the low Raw rating that week.

 

Talk about clutching at straws.

    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

    • It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
