A story that has been floating around backstage this week is that Randy Savage apparently missed the Impact! tapings this week because he reportedly received a call from Hogan after Victory Road basically telling him that he was going to be at Impact! and he was coming with Goldberg and Steve Austin to make the top spots in the company. Savage was then told he shouldn’t even bother to return as he would be demoted almost immediately.
Savage apparently had no knowledge of anything and called the TNA offices the next day and pulled out. We have not been able to confirm this, but it has came up several different times throughout the week by several different people. One TNA source noted that Savage is making that claim although it isn’t believed by many in the company.
We can tell you that TNA is once again talking with Savage and are clearing everything out as we speak. We expect Savage to sign a new deal shortly.
