Lots Of Talent Gone From TNA
Some
Taeler Hendrix – Released
Madison Rayne – Contract not renewed
Christian York – Released
Joey Ryan – Released
Crimson – Not sure, likely released
Odds are more are coming, but it sounds like a big cost cutting move. Other than Crimson, do any of these really surprise anyone?
Edit: Sam Shaw was originally listed but apparently he’s still around.
Christian York and Joey Ryan? Whatever. Taeler Hendrix? She was never used but I thought she was decent enough. Madison Rayne is pregnant and won’t be able to compete for at least a year so it makes sense why her contract wasn’t renewed. She’ll be back in TNA. As for Crimson, this is the one release that is disappointing. He has a good look and he has a lot of potential but TNA doesn’t see much in him anymore I guess.
They need a way to pay that John “Big” guy they just signed.
Maybe if they stop signing almost every castaway from WWE, (ie Mike Knox and Luke Gallows) and concentrate on their own homegrown talent, they’d have the money to pay their employees ontime.
