— One third of the Knockout Tag Team Champions, Velvet Sky, recently signed a three-year contract with TNA Wrestling. She also received a pay raise, bumping her salary from $300 per show to $600 per show. As a result, she is among the company’s top female earners.
— Due to poor sales, TNA Wrestling’s “Ultimate Fan Xperience: Victory Road VIP Weekend” has been discounted from $299 to $99. The company reportedly sold less than ten VIP packages, hence the markdown. All fans who had previously purchased tickets at the $299 price will receive a refund for the difference of the ticket price. For more information on the proceedings, click here.
— Reportedly, “it was a lock” a few weeks ago that Bound for Glory would be held in San Antonio. The decision to move the pay-per-view event to Daytona Beach was due to company officials finding out that WWE had scheduled a Monday Night Raw taping in San Antonio on July 26.
— TNA Wrestling officials are working on setting up an Australian tour. A previously planned tour of Australia was canceled last December due to changes in TNA’s television production schedule, company officials claimed.
— As seen last week on iMPACT!, Sarita turned heel by attacking tag partner Taylor Wilde following the former Women’s Knockout Champion’s loss to Madison Rayne, proclaiming she was sick of losing matches. Nonetheless, the inaugural Knockout Tag Team Champions will be appearing together at this Saturday’s “Heatwave” event at the Holiday Inn in Carteret, New Jersey. The two will be doing photo-ops together with fans. For more information on the event, click here.
