During a hearing yesterday in Warren County, VA, the pending DUI charges against Kurt Angle from his September 4th arrest were amended to reckless driving. Angle was pulled over and charged after two breathalyzer tests, one that came in at 0.091, which is over the 0.08 limit, and then another hours later, which came in at 0.06. Angle will appear in court on November 8th, and could face a $2,500 fine and up to one year in jail.

Vince Russo Removed As The Head Writer Of TNA

Vince Russo has been removed from his post as the head of TNA's creative team, according to a report by ProWrestling.NET.

Russo has been replaced by Bruce Prichard, who is also in charge of TNA's talent relations.

Russo is not entirely gone, as he'll still be one of the senior writers for the show along with writer Matt Conway, but Bruce Prichard will now handle the overall direction of the shows and has the final say on the scripts.

This major change to TNA's creative structure has been in the works for several months and became official within the past week or so.

There are said to be mixed feelings in the TNA locker room regarding Bruce Prichard getting so much power in TNA so early into his run with the company - but at the same time, Russo's demotion is sure to make many people happy.






Holy Sh*T!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy Sh*T!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This would be more exciting if Hogan hadn't just been resigned.
But shit, im going to download their ppv, so maybe if i like it i will try watching the show again if Russo isn't in charge anymore.

[doolbnoom]

best news i've heard all day!

but maybe they'll make him head writer of that Indian wrestling thing... then he'd have something tasteless like a storyline with Hindus eating cow [meat] in the ring or something even dumber. heh heh heh

[clayholio]

i think it's always been like that though.



sadly i do believe hulk & bitch is a package deal. honestly though if we have to keep 1 i'd take bitchoff. since he took over production the impact zone looks much better and he seems to be good at keeping spike happy, plus he can still take a bump and i can't help but smile whenever he gets his ass kicked.

I cheered out loud when Sting popped Bischoff a week or two ago. They pulled that off perfectly...

c'mon Gail! i'd love to see her wrestle Angelina, Winter, and Velvet.

see, i've always thought TNA should have a show with amatuer hires-for-the-moment. have them show off their skills.
TNA has another show, right? but i can't see it. is it on Spike as well? when?
as for another show that could be widely seen i'd even call it IAW for Impact Amateur Wrestling. "TNA presents... IAW."

[The Great Grape]

I'm going to wait and see how this works out for a while in terms of product affection before getting too excited.

[master of read]

beer money starts us off.

[Gryphon]

James storm, telling it like it is.

[Legato]

I'm skipping this. Seen one show that focused on nothing but putting the guy incharge over already

[SUPERECWFAN1]

The Knoxville fans love Beer Money. Storm basically claims it maybe the Hogan retirement show , bout damn time. That its time for them to focus on them and the young guys. He also claims he hopes Hogan can follow Storm/Roode after they tear this sum bitch down.

Roode wants Storm to bring his best to him tonight.
