TNA AT ODDS WITH TAZ

By Mike Johnson on 2015-04-14 12:27:46
A number of readers sent word that Taz removed all references to TNA on his Twitter account today and asked whether that was a sign of something greater going on. As it turns out, it is.

In asking around, we are told that Taz did not come to a planned voice-over session in Nashville, TN this past Thursday as scheduled to do commentary for several weeks of Impact Wrestling.

Sources within TNA claim that pay issues led to Taz effectively refusing to get on his flight from New York. So, the same pay problems that we wrote about over the last few days that have been frustrating TNA wrestlers for weeks was obviously a factor.

It appears Taz removed TNA from his Twitter to, at the very least, send a message to the company. When asked about Taz's relationship with the company, my source declined to comment. PWInsider.com efforts to reach Taz were unsuccessful.

As far as the Impact Wrestling episodes, I was told that Josh Mathews handled the commentary alone for the episode that will air this Friday but that could change as TNA has until Thursday to hand the episode into Destination America.

I was also told that TNA recently gave Al Snow a tryout as an announcer, so read into that what you will.
