- Judas Mesias appears to be done with TNA. His last match with the company was during last night's iMPACT! tapings. Mesias was getting paid roughly $1,300 per match and TNA just couldn't justify spending that much on him. James Mitchell is staying around though but there is no word yet on what his role will be.
- The 2/23 iMPACT! replay did a 0.4 rating.
- TNA is said to be treating Destination X as a throw away PPV. They are more intrested in building to Lockdown which is one of their big three events along with Slammiversary and Bound for Glory.
- Speaking of Lockdown, the theme for the event will be "Nothing To Lose" by "Operator".
- Jeremy Padower spoke a bit about Jakks upcoming TNA line in a recent interview with Wrestlingfigs.com. To check out the video interview just head on over to their website. It is broken up into 9 parts.
(Information from The Wrestling Observer and Pro Wrestling Insider were used in this report)
- Abyss will be gone for awhile and return with a new character, reports the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
- Kurt Angle is the most requested TNA star for media appearances.
- TNA has eliminated the local promotion of on-sale days for the PPV events, in a cost-cutting measure.
- For the Lockdown PPV, TNA has Angle vs. Samoa Joe for the world title and B.G. James vs. Kip James.

I don't know about this umasking of Abyss....I mean it's not like they've gotten everything out of it that they could.....I'm still seeing him as TNA's version of Kane... Also, I don't know why they were even paying Judas Mesias that much per match either and I'm also tired of this Kip James vs. B.G. James matches.....ugh....

what they should have did was run a monster stable...Judas..Black Reign...Rellik..with Mitchell managin'...have them terrorize the holy hell out of Abyss at every turn...for a good 6 to 8 months at least...durin' that time Abyss would have gotten over more as a uber face...the Monstas would have gotten over as heels...the writin' team is just so horrible for TNA right now...
