TNA iMPACT! Cuts, Russo Ticked Off, Hogan/TNA Champion?

The UK airing of iMPACT! was edited down to 2 hours, and one of the things cut was Hogan’s opening sequence. This meant he said nothing about being in the back all day, which changed the dynamic of his speech.

Fanhouse.com are echoing the sentiments of many TNA detractors, with a writer predicting that Hogan will be TNA champion soon and being less than complimentary about the comeback in general.

Vince Russo did an “interview” with The Sun, in which all the questions looked suspiciously like all the questions he has answered on Facebook…and all the answers were almost identical. However, The Sun put some spin on his answers, prompting Russo to respond with: Always watch what you say, because it will almost always be taken out of context!!! Today in the Sun, it was quoted as saying that I “had no desire” to see Triple H, Shawn Michaels, John Cena, or the Undertaker in TNA. Obviously, that’s not even close to what I said. The question was posed–which top 5 guys would I want from the WWE in TNA. My answer was, “Randy Orton, Randy Orton, Randy Orton and Randy Orton.” Does that mean that I wouldn’t welcome Hunter, Shawn, the Undertaker or Cena with open arms? That’s how the media works–that’s why I never do interviews. Also–just for the record–Stone Cold Steve Austin IS A TREMENDOUS performer. Rock, just has more range, in my opinion. May explain why he’s now a major Hollywood actor. Again–the Sun tried to make it look like I was slighting Austin–and that’s ridiculous. Steve was a HUGE part of my success. Peace, Vince I wonder if the Sun will print any of that. As an aside, Russo also linked to The Sun’s original article earlier in the day. Note from Ryan Clark: The Sun has never been viewed as a reliable source. Some of the shit they report is ridiculous to say the least. They are like the UK version of the National Enquirer.

EVOLVE seem to be dropping hints on their website about the surprise wrestler coming in for their January 16 debut. Right now on their website, the “E” in the middle of their logo changes to an “E” in the font of the ECW logo. Also on the site, there is a $5 ticket sale ongoing.
