TNA tapes iMPACT! tonight and tomorrow night at Universal Studios.
Jeremy Borash appeared on the “Right After Wrestling” radio show on SIRIUS Radio Channel 98 last night. During his appearance, he stated that he will still make his online appearances for TNA while his character is off TV.
From Lee Raelph, regarding TNA PPV in the UK: As noted the Genesis PPV will air over here on BT Vision only which has approximately 436,000 subscribers since it is available to customers of BT’s Total Broadband service only. Compare that to the nationwide availability of SKY which has approximately 9.5 MILLION subscribers and Virgin Media with approximately 3.7 MILLION subscribers- both of which carry the BRAVO 2 channel former home to TNA PPVs (which BT Vision does not) – I’m sure you can plainly see what a baffling and counter productive move this is for TNA and its UK fans. And with an imminent UK tour the timing is rather unfortunate too.
The word going around backstage is that the incident with Awesome Kong beating up Bubba the Love Sponge was “far worse” than Bubba described it today. Note from Ryan Clark: I’ve heard that Kong went absolutely ballistic, was screaming very loudly, and would not back off Bubba as others tried to break it up. Both were sent home after the incident. It’s time to get rid of Bubba but he brings them crazy publicity with his two radio shows.
