BIG CHANGE TO IMPACT WHEN IT RETURNS IN JANUARY

By Dave Scherer on 2014-11-28 11:59:43

The word coming out of TNA is that when Impact resumes in January, Mike Tenay will be replaced by Josh Matthews as the primary play-by-play announcer. That is a move that was expected when the new TV deal was signed as Tenay lives in Las Vegas, NV and is a fly-in almost everywhere (not to mention more expensive) while Matthews is now working at the TNA offices in Nashville. With the new TV deal TNA will have less money to work with, at least in the beginning, so cost cutting is to be expected.

From what I have heard, Tenay will remain involved with the company in a different role.
