TNA Executive John Gaburick told Pwinsider.com that TNA is seeking outside investors to come on board with the company.

 

TNA has been in in strategic partnership talks with several major global media companies and investment firms about the companys next phase of growth.

 

Gaburick confirmed that Dixie Carter and the Executive team was in Los Angeles for meetings with possible investors earlier this week. He also noted that Carter was in New York City recently.

 

TNA CEO Dixie Carter has talked in recent media interviews about the companys execution of its 5-year growth plan and that the meetings were in line with making those plans happen, adding, Its a very exciting time for TNA.

 

TNA currently airs Impact Wrestling on Tuesday nights on Pop TV.

Guest Fight Me.

I really love the slow transformation Jade has been going through since Taryn left the Dollhouse. She's just herself now and really kicking ass.

Dave Meltzer reported on today’s installment of Wrestling Observer Radio that Ken Anderson is no longer with TNA Wrestling.

 

Meltzer would go on to say that he doesn’t know exactly why, but Anderson went on to do an indie show and was telling people he was done with the company.

I know that at 40 years old he's in the twilight of his career at this point, but if he's able to recognize the fact that he's pretty much universally hated and weave that into his wrestling persona like Matt Hardy did, he might be able to do some good stuff. Especially if he doesn't have a big ego and still enjoys wrestling. His ICW appearance leads me to believe he's still got a good attitude about it. I'd like to see him reinvent himself and keep wrestling.

^^ More on that...

 

 

 

We reported earlier today that Mr. Anderson and TNA Wrestling have parted ways. While our original report didn’t indicate what exactly happened, we can now confirm that Anderson was actually fired from the promotion.

 

PWInsider reports that Anderson was released from his TNA deal for behavior that took place during the company’s tapings in Bethlehem, PA. No other details were provided, but Anderson decided to tell the company off during a recent appearance for Insane Championship Wrestling this past weekend.

Ken Anderson was released from TNA Wrestling after he failed a drug test … and multiple backstage sources tell us it was given to him after he appeared to be under the influence during a match.

 

Sources with knowledge of the situation tell us the match against Eric Young was supposed to air on January 19th, but Anderson looked so bad in the ring they had to remove it from the show.

 

We’re told he was immediately forced to take a drug test backstage, then sent home.

 

As we previously reported, Ken recently proclaimed “F**K TNA” at an ICW show while announcing he was no longer with the company.

 

Pro Wrestling Sheet attempted to reach Anderson for comment. So far, no word back.

 

We also attempted to reach TNA officials for comment. No word back either, but sources tell us management is hoping Ken gets some sort of treatment.

UPDATE 3: WZ has more details on Ken Anderson being fired from TNA for a failed drug test. A source in the company indicated that Anderson tested positive for pills that he didn’t have a prescription for.

 

The source noted that Anderson’s behavior “seemed odd” during the day before the match and that the match itself was cut short due to the fact that Anderson looked bad in there against Eric Young. Young was said to be livid with TNA management afterward and could he heard yelling at officials to do something about the problem.

 

UPDATE 2: Ken Anderson’s TNA release was reportedly due to a failed drug test. Pro Wrestling Sheet reports that according to multiple sources backstage at the company, Anderson was given a drug test after he appeared to be under the influence during a match with Eric Young at the Bethlehem, Pennsylvania tapings.

 

The site reports that Anderson looked so bad that the match was cut from the January 19th show that it was supposed to air during. Anderson was forced to take an immediate drug test after the match and sent home.

 

TNA officials and Anderson have yet to comment, although the sources in the company say management hopes that Anderson gets treatment for his issues.

 

UPDATE: Pwinsider.com now reports that Anderson was released from his TNA deal for behavior that took place during the Bethlehem, PA tapings.

Love Decay right now. Is Jimmy Havoc signed or is he just here for the UK tapings?

 

Also, Anderson hasn't really done anything interesting since the Samuel Shaw feud and Shaw should've gone over there. Maybe he should've just left when he first got released about 3 years ago.
