TNA has been advised by the Gulfport, Florida Police Department that Thomas Latimer, known as Bram, has been arrested and charged with two felony counts of domestic battery and false imprisonment. TNA is working to gather facts and obtain additional information related to the arrest.

“The charges against Thomas Latimer are serious, and he is immediately and indefinitely suspended from any future TNA-sanctioned events awaiting the outcome of the case,” said TNA Executive Vice President of Television and Talent John Gaburick.


The Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office booked Bram on two felony charges; one for domestic battery by strangulation, and another for false imprisonment. Pinellas County says Latimer is still awaiting trial.

FYI, he got released from WWE/NXT after being charged with "battery of a law enforcement officer and disorderly intoxication" and he had a DUI in his time there, too.

He's also married to Charlotte.

TMZ.com is reporting that WWE diva Zahra Schreiber, the girlfriend of WWE World and United States Champion Seth Rollins, has been fired from the company because of pro-Nazi artwork she posted on her Instagram.

Zahra posted photos back in 2012 of swastikas and a “My Little Pony” character dressed as Hitler.

^^ It was inevitable after the posts surfaced. Havok had a similar situation not too long ago, but she was pretty remorseful about it, and didn't get punished by TNA (but she's gone now, anyway).

Independent wrestlers Rich Swann and Biff Busick have been signed to WWE, according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Both men must now pass WWE’s medical physicals, as is customary with all new talent joining the company.

Both men have competed for EVOLVE, one of the promotions under the WWN banner. WWN officials met with WWE officials at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn and the two companies have been rumored to be working together over the past several months.

Swann (24) has been wrestling since 2009 and started with CZW before moving to EVOLVE and Dragon Gate USA later on. He’s a former Open the Owarai Gate Champion, Open the Triangle Gate Champion and Open the United Gate Champion.

Busick (29) also started with CZW back in 2012 and is a former CZW Heavyweight Champion. He’s wrestled EVOLVE and Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG), among others. He was trained by former WWE and WCW star Lance Storm. He received a WWE tryout earlier this year.

Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio is confirming former TNA Knockout / CMLL wrestler Sarita is signing with WWE as previously rumored.

Sarita, real name Sarah Stock, is headed to developmental, but will actually be signed as a coach, not an active competitor. It was noted in the past that she had worked as a guest trainer for WWE a few times this year, and she’s likely not going to be brought up to WWE as an active wrestler at 36 years old.

Stock had announced last week she was leaving CMLL Mexico, and it was speculated she may sign with WWE. She will still work the September 18th CMLL ’82nd Anniversary’ event, but said during an interview she came into some new ventures, most likely hinting then at going to work for WWE.

Stock was a two-time TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champion, and worked for nearly ten years with CMLL as Dark Angel, in addition to appearing with SHIMMER. It was also noted that Stock has appeared on WWE television before, being seen as part of Tyler Breeze’s ‘spring line’ entourage back in May.

Oh god that Sting promo was awful :pinch:

Yeah, I never thought I would see him kiss HHH's ass so much...

On another note, why do they keep pushing that moron Ryback??? He's just a 3rd hand Goldberg wanna-be, he will never EVER reach Goldberg's level, but this is clearly the way they're going for. How stupid do they think we are?!

I never thought i'd see that man kiss HHH's ass as much as i did in that promo. I'm a huge Sting fan and i almost wanted to puke when i heard all that. Not only did he cheat and had DX come out and help...but he used a sledgehammer.... shake his hand? Hell No...When i thought they couldn't ruin Sting any further... they make him look like a total bitch as he kisses HHHs ass

      There's this from last year https://gist.github.com/threat...364659a8887841aa43deca4efd9 but nothing about a buffer overflow that MS somehow can't code against. No matter what, it makes sense to take a "protected by default" approach.

      Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon by Taras Buria Files, one of the best third-party file managers for Windows 11 out there, has received a minor update to version 4.1.3. The latest release brings a few quality-of-life improvements and new features, including an easier way to calculate folder sizes, improved tags, a new OneDrive icon, and more. Starting with folder size, File now has a dedicated "View size" button for each folder if you have the "Calculate folder sizes" option turned off in settings. This improves performance and allows you to see each folder's size only when needed. Note that folder size calculation could take some time depending on the number of files and their "weight." Next, Files can now retain file selection when switching layouts. While this change is rather minor, it lets you keep selected objects highlighted whenever you need to switch, say, from a list to a thumbnail layout. If you use tags, you will be glad to know that Files 4.1.3 makes it easier to remove all tags. You can do that with one of the following methods: From the context menu — right-click an item, open the Tags submenu, and choose Remove tags. From the toolbar — when the Edit Tags button is pinned to the toolbar, the same option appears in its menu. From the Command Palette — open the Command Palette and search for Remove tags. You can also assign your own keyboard shortcut to it from Settings. The final visible change is the new OneDrive icon. Files now pulls the icon directly from the OneDrive executable, which means the app always has the up-to-date version. As for the fixes, developers resolved the following bugs: Fixed an issue with extracting tar archives. Fixed an issue where the Signatures page would occasionally cause a crash. Fixed an issue where the Play action wasn’t available when a single media file was selected. Fixed an issue where Smart Extract would extract archives to the wrong location when switching tabs. Fixed an issue where tag search excluded folders when grouping by type. Fixed an issue where thumbnails would sometimes fail to refresh after a file was modified. Fixed an issue where a BitLocker-locked drive wasn’t displayed. Developers also revealed what is coming in future updates. Soon, Files Preview will get a new Tree View sidebar, allowing you to display folders in an expandable hierarchy, which is a popular way to browse deeply nested folders. Expect the feature to arrive in the preview channel in upcoming updates. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
