– TNA President Dixie Carter that she just held a talent meeting ahead of tonight’s Genesis edition of Impact Wrestling

Very busy day at #Genesis. Just finished an all talent meeting. Later, I am meeting with the new guys teased yesterday. @Spiketv 9/8c

— Dixie Carter (@TNADixie) January 16, 2014

– TNA founder Jeff Jarrett was in Los Angeles earlier this week taking business meetings regarding his new mystery project. Jarrett is still not ready to announce anything, but it’s believed he’s working on a new wrestling promotion with country music star Toby Keith acting as a majority investor.

– Following the recent departure of Wes Brisco and Jay Bradley from TNA, there are sources that claim both Mike Knox and Garett Bischoff may be next to be released from the company.

– The following are some attendance figures for some recent TNA Wrestling live events:

January 10th live event in Bristol, Tennessee drew approximately 800 fans.
January 11th live event in McMinnville, Tennessee drew approximately 1,200 fans.

“The Icon” Sting appeared at both of the aforementioned TNA live events.

– Both Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards have officially arrived in Huntsville, Alabama, the site of tonight’s TNA “Genesis” event. As previously reported, the two are expected to make their TNA debuts tonight. As we mentioned recently on the website, TNA president Dixie Carter teased new talent debuting at Genesis, with the initials “D.R.” and “E.E.” as a tease.

– TNA star Ethan Carter III alluded to the Richards/Edwards debut in addition to hyping his own match with Sting. EC3 posted the following tweet today:

42. @TNADixie promises "New" faces tonight. I promise to become the "New" Icon. Carters always keep their promises. @sting #50TweetsToSting

The following are highlights of a recent interview with TNA star Gunner:

On having a tryout in front of Hulk Hogan: “I was aware that I was being watched. When I got that dark match, D-Lo said Dixie’s watching, & Hulk’s watching. Here is your opportunity so don’t go out there and screw it up. I’ve always worked well under pressure and I think being in The Marine Corps helps you in dealing with a lot of pressure. It was my opportunity and I was either going to go out there and shine or I was going to burn. Hulk gave me a lot of compliments, not only for my dark match, but throughout the time he was there. He seemed to enjoy a lot of my character, so that meant a lot.

On TNA being on the road versus the Impact Zone: “There are pros & cons to both. Being on the road was great because you get to see different towns and different wrestling fans. The Impact Zone has the same people there usually every week or every month, which is not bad, but then again it’s really nice to get in front of say like, a southern crowd like we will in Alabama for Genesis. It’ll obviously be a hot crowd. But it’s good to be back in the Impact Zone. We have a home base and we know the crowd will be pretty lively.

On AJ Styles leaving TNA: “Superstars leave promotions all the time. It doesn’t mean he (AJ) won’t be back. He may have some things going on that he wants to take care of first. All it is, is giving somebody like me the open door to be the new poster child for the company.

On the state of TNA: “I honestly believe that all is well. It seems that theres’ things going on in WWE that the internet doesn’t hit on. It seems that because we are a younger company, I feel like we are the ones that get hit on so much. I don’t think personally anything is wrong with the company. We’re having more live events in 2014 than we did in 2013. We’re doing the UK tour which is a very huge tour for us plus the new TV deal we just signed in the UK and we’re still with Spike TV, so I don’t think anything’s wrong with the company. I honestly don’t see Impact going anywhere.

On TNA pushing but not committing to young stars: “I understand what you’re talking about and it already happened to me because in 2011 I was in the bound for glory series and I was hot being a singles guy, then I sat home for 8 months, and it wasn’t anything I did wrong, it was just a revamping of the character. There could be things going on behind the scenes that I don’t know about perhaps like somebody not getting along. It is known and it has been said, and Dixie has had conversations with us, and the new talent relations guy said 2014 is the year for the young guys to step up.”

On Jeff Jarrett leaving TNA: “That was kind of out of left field with a lot of us. On a personal level, Jeff helped me a lot also. He was always there for me to ask questions about promos or anything and as far as that, he’s a guy I consider a friend. And on a professional level, I don’t know why he left. Jeff Jarrett is a smart man. He’s a smart business man when it comes to wrestling. He’s been around it his whole life. I wish him luck and hope I get to work with him again someday because he’s always been there for me.”

On how hands-on Dixie Carter is with TNA creative: “When it comes to writing storylines, she doesn’t have any say so in that. She kind of lets the professionals do that. I don’t get to sit in on production meetings so I don’t know what goes on with that stuff. She does keep an eye on everybody and she does watch the show live when we do it. She’s right in front of the monitor in the back. She has input and it is valuable at times because she’s the owner of the company and you definitely want to hear what she has to say.”

Check out the complete interview online at ShiningWizards.com.

Tonight on Spike TV, TNA presents a special Genesis edition of Impact Wrestling from Huntsville, Alabama. Next week’s show (which will be taped tonight as well) will also feature the Genesis theme.  Matches advertised for tonight’s show include:

– Sting vs. Ethan Carter III
– Kurt Angle vs. Bobby Roode in a Steel Cage Match
– Bully Ray vs. Mr. Anderson
– Knockouts Champion Gail Kim vs. Madison Rayne

We’ll also see the fallout of Magnus being crowned the undisputed TNA World Champion and the fallout of AJ Styles’ departure from the company.

TNA President Dixie Carter has been teasing that new talent will be debuting at Genesis and revealed the first two that will be on tonight’s show are “DR” and “EE” – believed to be former ROH/NXT stars Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards.

Here is the opening video for tonight’s show:

TNA President Dixie Carter tweeted the following on Wednesday, revealing a hint about two new faces we’ll see on Thursday’s live Genesis edition of Impact Wrestling:

Here is the hint I promised. #Genesis Tomorrow 9/8c on @SpikeTV pic.twitter.com/1gpDPszyjv

— Dixie Carter (@TNADixie) January 15, 2014

“DR” amd “EE” are former ROH tag team champions Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards, who recently did a short stint at WWE NXT but were not signed to contracts.

Former two time World Heavyweight Boxing Champion Riddick Bowe is once again making a push to enter the world of professional wrestling.

Back in August, Bowe announced that he wants to be first man to win a world heavyweight championship in boxing and professional wrestling.

Here are some of Bowe’s recent tweets talking about his desire to become a pro wrestler – and possibly wrestle Hulk Hogan:

How bout my fans help me convince @TNADixie to give me a shot at wrestling.. spread the word partners

— Riddick Bowe (@riddickbowe) January 14, 2014

Screw all the haters ill be back in the ring and once again the heavyweight champion of the world. Im coming for u klitschkos. Thats whatsup

— Riddick Bowe (@riddickbowe) January 14, 2014

— Riddick Bowe (@riddickbowe) January 15, 2014

You are never too old to set a new goal or to dream a new dream. Why doubt me when mine is to once again be a champion? #bowetalks

— Riddick Bowe (@riddickbowe) January 15, 2014

Morning workout. preparing for my comeback

— Riddick Bowe (@riddickbowe) January 15, 2014

What up my man @THETOMMYDREAMER when you teaching me some wrestling partner

— Riddick Bowe (@riddickbowe) January 15, 2014

Former TNA World Champion Bully Ray joined Doug Mortman and Dave Lagreca on Busted Open.. You can hear Busted Open on SiriusXM 92 and on the SiriusXM app. Here are some highlights of what he said about:

Being the “glue” that has been holding TNA together: “Well I appreciate you guys thinking that I’m the glue that holds the company together. That’s always nice to hear. Listen, I go out there–you guys know this damn well–whether you love me, whether you hate me, you gotta respect me just a little bit, cause every night I go out there to steal the show. And give the people exactly what they pay to see.  And they pay to hate me. And that’s what they get.”

Where his new, more mysterious Bully is heading coming out of Aces and Eights: “In wrestling, as you guys know, and in sports, in wrestling, in entertainment; you always have to evolve. So I’m giving the people the next level, the next chapter, the next evolution of Bully Ray. Some people might like it, some people might hate it. I really don’t care what they think as long as they tune in. And that’s all that matters.”

How he feels about the new Dixie Carter/Magnus regime: “Listen. In business there is always going to be changes going on. You guys experience change there; working at Sirius XM; all the time. Whether it’s McDonalds, or whether it’s in a hospital or whether it’s an auto body shop, whether it’s pro wrestling. There’s always going to be changes. Changes in talent, changes in personnel, changes in management, changes in direction, changes in theory on how the business should be run. So you always try to evolve. You always try to move forward and see what the next thing  is that is going to hit. So you know wrestling is no different than any other business. You keep evolving, you keep changing. So we’ll see what happens with this. Everybody wants to see TNA succeed. Everybody likes to sit back and whether it’s bash TNA or bash the WWE; people will sit there and bash. They don’t do anybody any good. Everybody is entitled to their opinion. You might not like something and that’s cool. But to sit back there and bash a company for no fricking good reason when all of the wrestlers are trying to go out there every single week and do their absolute best. And all of the creative members are trying to do their absolute best in the best interest of the fans. Sometimes things don’t always go the right way. Sometimes they go really great. You kind of gotta roll with the punches.”

His turn at Lockdown in 2013 in San Antonio: “OH! Well the first thing I got to say is this: whoever thought or came up with the delusion that those were plants in the audience; I would love to meet that person face to face and mafia kick them in their fricking jaw. That’s first of all. Then I’ll wish them a Happy New Year. That is the kind of hatred; that is the kind of emotional response that I strive on. That’s the kind of emotional response that me and Devon (Dudley) used to get on a nightly basis in ECW. I was so proud of the response at Lockdown. I was so proud that I was able to pull off what I pulled off. I was proud of the fact of being the champion. I was proud of the fact of being able to pull the wool over the eyes of all of the smart wrestling fans all over the world. And people were pissed off. And that’s what’s going to make me memorable; things like that. The last time you saw an incident like that was in Daytona Beach, Florida when Hulk Hogan joined the nWo. And to be able to do it to him and his daughter (Brooke) and shove it up both of their asses at the same time? That was golden.”

Having a crazy 2013: “No doubt. World Titles; women; whisky. Hanging out with Motley Crue in Vegas. Going crazy. My goal for 2014 is this: I want to get my World Title back. I want to piss off even more people and I want to see how many Knockouts I can get through in the locker room.”

Facing Ken Anderson at Genesis this Thursday on Spike TV: “Well you got to dig the fact that TNA does try to give away quality Pay Per View, main event matches on free TV. I think that’s where you gotta really look at TNA–you gotta tip the hat to them and say Hey! You know they’re trying. They’re not trying to hang us out for 39.95 every single month for a PPV. They are doing some of the old school things. Some of the things to keep wrestling fans happy and interested. And Genesis is going to be a very interesting PPV. Just the fact alone that you got me and Anderson; the feud that has been going on for months and months. And whether you like it or hate it, me and Anderson always deliver in that ring. You know if I’m out there, you gotta keep that channel on. You know if I’m out there, something is going to happen. You know if I’m out there, I’m gonna say something or I’m gonna do something that’s going to be totally unexpected. And at Genesis I plan on doing the same thing. And it started out with House of Hardcore a couple of months ago, followed up at Old School in Poughkeepsie, got Genesis right around the corner. If Bully Ray is out there, expect the unexpected.”

His thoughts on the new WWE Network: “I think it’s great for wrestling fans. As a wrestling fan and personally I am a wrestling fan. There are a lot of things that I would like to see. If I know that I can go to the WWE Network and just order something up and check out a match from back in the day that I want to see; that’s awesome. So I think it’s good for all of wrestling. It keeps wrestling out there. It keeps wrestling in the public’s eye. And now fans have access to whatever they want to see. It’s all about entertainment, guys. KISS goes up there every night; plays the same songs; Gene spits the same blood; they do the same pyro and people pay to see them. Because people love KISS. People love rock and roll; drinking whiskey; naked girls and partying. And that’s the same reason why people will always love pro wrestling. “

– TNA star Kurt Angle will be undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery on February 11th, according to a report at TNANews.com. The procedure was originally scheduled for January 21st but it was rescheduled so he could appear on the upcoming “Maximum Impact” European tour.

Recovery is expected to last 6 to 8 weeks. With Lockdown taking place less than a month after the surgery, it’s unlikely Angle will be competing on the show.

– As we’ve been reporting, TNA is bringing in some new talent soon. TNA President Dixie Carter tweeted last night that Thursday’s live Genesis edition of Impact Wrestling will feature a few new faces:

Just hung up the phone… New talents coming to #Genesis in Huntsville. Thursday 9/8c on @SpikeTV

Backstage News On Two Former NXT Wrestlers Joining TNA

TNA has posted the following on their official website, announcing a new fifth match for their upcoming “Genesis” show:

TNA TO BROADCAST GENESIS ON SPIKE TV LIVE FROM HUNTSVILLE, AL., THURSDAY, JAN. 16

TNA is kicking off the new year with a new beginning as for the first time ever, the Genesis Pay-Per-View event will be broadcast free on SPIKE TV live from Huntsville, Ala. Fans will be part of four hours of history-making television as the Superstars of IMPACT WRESTLING bring the hard-hitting, high-flying action of Genesis to two epic IMPACT WRESTLING LIVE! broadcasts scheduled for Jan. 16, and Jan. 23, at 9 p.m. ET, on SPIKE TV.

TNA’s “Genesis” will be a special two-week event on SpikeTV, airing on Thursday, January 16 and Thursday, January 23! Both “Genesis” episodes will feature your favorite TNA superstars competing in high-stakes matches! Featured matches over the two weeks – and more to be announced – include the following:

– “The Icon” Sting vs. Ethan Carter III
– Cage Match: Kurt Angle vs. Bobby Roode
– Bully Ray vs Mr. Anderson
– Knockouts Title: Gail Kim vs. Madison Rayne
– Briefcase Match: “Cowboy” James Storm vs. Gunner

TNA star Samoa Joe recently appeared on the MLW Radio podcast. Here are some highlights of what he said about:

Whether TNA wrestlers are worried or hoping that recent departures mean a better spot for them: 

“I think a little bit of both. I mean with guys like AJ gone, he was like the team captain. When you think of Impact Wrestling, you think of AJ Styles.”

Working with Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan:

“Um I think Bischoff is still around, I think it’s just a production capacity. I think with Hogan, some people think he had more clout than he did. I think they really wanted him to do a bit more but I think he just didn’t want to really do more at this time. As far as Hogan as a person, cool cat. As far as working with him, I wouldn’t know. I never worked with them. I never see them, I never talk to them. When they just asked me ‘This is what we need from you’ I did it and that was that.”

The infamous kidnapping angle and Vince Russo:

“You want me to break the silence on that? I don’t like getting in verbal spats with people who I don’t think are worth my time or my effort and a dude in particular is Vince Russo. This cat, I don’t have a problem with Vince Russo. When he left I just told him, it is what it is. He always had 22 million reasons for making the decisions that he made. But when Hogan and Bischoff came in they said, ‘Oh we have this great idea. We are going to do this thing and take you off of TV and re-brand you. Do all this other stuff. We do this kidnapping thing and you come back as a psychopath.’ I was cool with it.

I sat at home for 3 months on a bitching ass vacation. I had one of the best vacations in the history of vacations. Paid vacation. Getting ready so I call them back week after week, ‘What do you guys need me to do’. They would say ‘We are still coming up with something’. Vince Russo with his infinite ridiculousness just said, we are short on babyfaces. So I get a call saying, ‘Joe we need to bring you back to TV.’

So I asked him, how is it that you are going to bring me back. He said, I don’t know how just yet but we need to bring you in. So the dude couldn’t write his way out of a kidnapping. The only reason why I bring this up is because he has the audacity to blame all of his silliness on other people. And by the way wrestlers, pro wrestlers all over the world and people in the business, stop whoring yourself out to shoot interviews. This man couldn’t write his way out of a kidnapping. That’s how much respect he had for the product, how much respect he had for the fans and that is indicative of his style of what he did. He was the head writer at the time and this is the way he felt that was admissible. Now I know this little bitch is going to go back on a shoot and talk all of this shit.”

His TNA future:

“I think with TNA now, especially with the inner office changes. I think hopefully I will be on top. I told them already. I said, ‘Look, you guys have tried to do things in different ways.’ I told them at the beginning of last year. ‘You guys have been using me in a utilitarian way for the past 2 or 3 years. I’m cool with it. I know this is a team effort but I’m ready to run with it and produce for you if you give me the opportunity.’ I’ve told John Gaburick the same thing. ‘You guys have been using me in a utilitarian way for the past 2 or 3 years. I’m ready to get shit done. If you want to run with me, It’s going to be this year.’ The ball is in their hands and we will just see what happens.”

– TNA President Dixie Carter announced on Monday night that Lockdown will take place on March 9th from the BankUnited Center in Miami, Florida. She tweeted:

BREAKING: Excited #Lockdown will be taking place on March 9th from Miami, FL. 1st time to bring cameras there. Tickets on sale 1/24

— Dixie Carter (@TNADixie) January 14, 2014

– TNA star Mr. Anderson announced on Monday night that his wife gave birth to twins. He posted on Instagram:

“Prescott Liberty Anderson (she’s on the left) Pearce Remington Anderson (he’s on the right)”

TNA released Jay Bradley and Wes Brisco on Monday.

Bradley was released almost a year to the day since he made his TNA debut as a contestant on Gut Check.

Wes Brisco, the son of WWE Hall of Famer Gerald Brisco, had been written off television during the final days of Aces & Eights.

With Dixie Carter announcing on Twitter that the company will be bringing in some fresh faces soon, it’s not surprising that the company is also releasing people to make room for the new talent.

– TMZ covered a story involving TNA star Jeff Hardy’s dog breaking a bone in its’ foot last week. Those interested in the story can check it out at TMZ.com.

– TNA has added a new video to their official YouTube channel featuring footage of “The Icon” Sting backstage at a TNA live event this past weekend. The “#IMPACT365” video, which can be seen below, is accompanied by the following description: “Backstage at the IMPACT World Tour Live Event in McMinnville, TN on Saturday night, several lucky fans has the chance to meet the Icon, Sting! Here is the exclusive video!”

http://youtu.be/o80zmi2lZKo

There is a lot of frustration among TNA staffers and office employees towards Dixie Carter. Apparently the feeling within the company is that the office workers aren’t appreciated for their hard work, nor has there been discussions of a raise in pay over the last several years.

Additionally, there is a feeling that TNA president Dixie Carter isn’t as approachable as she once was. It’s being said that Carter no longer goes out of her way to talk to anyone, with some noting that it seems like she’s in her own world these days, whereas she used to be a very approachable boss.

• Huge Update On The TNA Sale, Sting To WWE Update & More

Check out this photo from Friday night’s TNA live event from Bristol, Tennessee (Results). The ring announcer and the referee in the ring indicate that this is not one of those ‘photos taken before the show actually began.’

TNA wrestler James Storm was recently interviewed by the Dothan Eagle newspaper in Alabama about a number of subjects, including his preference in portraying a heel character over a babyface, wanting to work with Roderick Strong or The Young Bucks in TNA, and the fall of tag-team wrestling.

When the discussion of tag-teams in pro wrestling these days came up, Storm stated, “To me, there needs to be more teams, not guys just thrown together, but guys you can relate to.”

Regarding Storm’s previous tag-team with Bobby Roode, Storm noted, “Me and Bobby were thrown together, but we made it work as a tag team. It just takes time, and with the new format of professional wrestling, it’s kind of hard to give that much time to a specific area.”

Check out the complete interview online at DothanEagle.com.

– TNA will be giving away one free ticket to children for every adult ticket purchased for their upcoming “Genesis” show in Huntsville, Alabama.

– Sports Palooza Radio recently interviewed TNA wrestler Christopher Daniels (@facdaniels). You can check out that interview online at BlogTalkRadio.com. (Thanks to reader Mark Kruskol for sending along the link.)

The following are results from the TNA live event in Bristol, Tennessee. The event was held on Friday, January 10, 2014.

– Dewey Barnes def. A Local Wrestler to open the show. Barnes made his entrance from the merchandise table, where he was working. Barnes, who worked the match as the underdog, ended up pulling off the upset, and then headed back to the merch table.

– Chris Sabin def. Austin Aries to retain the TNA X-Division Championship in a match that was said to be excellent. The finish came when Sabin used a dreaded “foreign object” to pick up the win.

– Gail Kim def. Madison Rayne to retain the TNA Knockouts Championship. The finish came when Kim rolled Rayne up and held the ropes for leverage during the pin.

– The BroMans def. James Storm & Gunner to retain the TNA World Tag-Team Championship in what was described as a “fun, comedy match.”

– Abyss def. Bobby Roode in singles action. Abyss wasn’t advertised for the show, so his being there was considered a pleasant surprise for those in attendance. Abyss picked up the victory via his Black Hole Slam for the pin.

– Magnus def. Sting to retain the TNA World Heavyweight Championship in the first of what was billed as a “double main event.” The finish came when the referee was down and Sting was checking on him, allowing Magnus to roll him up from behind for the 1-2-3.

– Samoa Joe def. Bully Ray in a best of three falls match, which served as the official main event of the evening. Ray attacked Joe before the match officially started, which allowed him to gain the first fall. Joe won the second fall and then the third, finishing Ray off with the clutch for the tap out victory.

TNA recently issued a press release announcing four matches for their upcoming live event on January 29th at the National Stadium in Dublin, Ireland as part of their “Maximum Impact VI” tour.

One of the matches features the celebrity Ivan Minnock, who filmed an angle with Rockstar Spud on a television show to hype their match on the card.

Below are the matches that were officially announced by TNA this weekend:

TNA World Heavyweight Championship
– Magnus vs. James Storm

TNA X-Division Title
– Chris Sabin vs. Austin Aries vs. Samoa Joe

Tables Match
– Bully Ray vs. Mr. Anderson

– Ethan Carter III & Rockstar Spud vs. Joseph Park, Eric Young & Ivan Minnock

TNA Impact Wrestling from this week (January 9th) delivered a final cable rating of 1.14, according to Nielsen Media Research. The 1.14 final draw marks an increase of 26 percent compared to the 0.91 rating that the show drew last week against the college football Sugar Bowl game.

As previously noted, Thursday’s Impact Wrestling averaged 1.393 million viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research. The 1.393 million viewers marks an increase from the 1.1 million viewers that the show averaged the previous week.

It should be mentioned that Thursday’s Impact Wrestling drew the highest cable rating for the show dating back nearly six months, when the “Destination X” special edition of the program delivered a 1.18 cable rating in July of 2013.

On cable television on Thursday night, Impact Wrestling ranked number 41 in overall viewers, number 24 in males 18-34 and number 22 in males 18-49.

The Thursday, January 9, 2014 edition of TNA Impact Wrestling on Spike TV averaged 1.393 million viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research.

The 1.393 million viewers marks an increase from the 1.1 million viewers that the show averaged the previous week.

We should have the final cable rating for Thursday’s Impact Wrestling later Friday evening or early Saturday morning.

TNA president Dixie Carter announced on her official Twitter account on Friday afternoon that the company is looking for new talent.

Dixie posted the following tweet:

Out with the old… In with the new… I am personally looking at every potential new talent to create the #Genesis of the future of TNA.

— Dixie Carter (@TNADixie) January 10, 2014

TNA President Dixie Carter held a company meeting this week at company headquarters in Nashville to address a wide variety of topics, including Jeff Jarrett’s departure, how future Impact Wrestling TV tapings will be handled and more.

As we reported earlier this month, Impact Wrestling is without a home base once again due to all of the sound stages at Universal Studios in Orlando being booked up for the remainder of 2014. During the meeting, Dixie Carter acknowledged that TNA still does not know where they’ll be holding Impact tapings after March. While they are still in talks with Universal Orlando about working out some sort of deal, the company is looking at other locations for future tapings.

Regarding Jeff Jarrett’s surprise departure from the company, Dixie Carter was very vague and simply called it a “business decision.” It’s believed that when Toby Keith’s negotiations to buy TNA broke down, Jarrett decided it was time to leave.

In related news, TNA is looking to hold the upcoming Lockdown pay-per-view from the Miami, Florida area.
