Thanks to the PWTorch and Wrestling Observer newsletters for the following:
— WWE interest in signing free agents will most likely be stronger if TNA gets a national TV deal. However, if TNA’s deal seems to be faltering, they may save the money and wait to sign high profile talent from TNA.
— TNA continues to build their good reputation for paying talent, by paying their wrestlers for the May 31 TV tapings, despite the fact that the show was cancelled. TNA wrestlers who are under contract were recently called by Scott D’Amore or another staff member to inform them of the good news.
— The current plan for TNA’s first Monday night TV show, is to have former WWE producer David Sahadi, who quit WWE a while back, make a bunch of 45 second highlight videos to make new viewers familiar with TNA’s main stars.
