DETAILS ON DEBUTING INTERNATIONAL TALENTS, JAPAN PPV TAPING, IMPACT PREVIEW AND MORE TNA NEWS

A few notes on some talents who will appear on upcoming episodes of Impact taped overseas during the European tour.  Alpha Female, whof faces ODB on Xplosion and will appear on this week's Impact, is one of the top European independent talents and over the last year, has wrestled for STARDOM in Japan.   "Bad Bones" John Klinger is also from Germany) and was one of the top vote getters when TNA did the online Gutcheck voting last year.

Samoa Joe noted on Twitter late last week that he had settled old issues with Vince Russo.

Interesting to note that Wrestle-1 in Japan is advertising TNA championship, TNA Tag championship and X-Division championship bouts for the 3/2 TNA One Night Only taping.  With The Bro-Mans not advertised currently for the event, one would expect some sort of title change before we hit that taping.

Great Muta and Sekada are coming in to work Lockdown.  As I said last week on my Elite audio, I'd love to see them booked against Bad Influence.

Set for Thursday's Impact Wrestling:

*Gunner vs. EC3 in a Ladder Match for both Feast or Fired Briefcases.
*Abyss discusses his return
*The Wolves and Samoa Joe vs. Zema Ion and BroMans
*Chris Sabin vs. Velvet Sky
*Mr. Anderson vs. Bully Ray - Casket Match.

TNA has house shows this weekend on 2/14 in Abilene, Texas, 2/15 in Austin Texas and 2/16 in Hunstville, Texas featuring TNA champion Magnus vs. Samoa Joe, TNA Tag Team champions The Bro-Mans vs. The Wolves, X-Division champion Austin Aries vs. Chris Sabin, TNA Knockouts champion Madison Rayne vs. Gail Kim and Ethan Carter III vs. James Storm
