    [URL="[URL]http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/258443-report-top-tna-knockout-possibly-leaving-the-company"]Source[/URL]

    According to PWInsider.com, top TNA Knockout and former Beautiful People member Velvet Sky appears to be "as gone [from TNA] as can be without having pen to paper."
    The report notes that according to sources, Sky is either finished with TNA or is finishing up with the company shortly. It's being said that Sky's status with TNA has been tenuous for weeks, and although she has been in negotiations for a new deal, most signs are pointing to her leaving.
    In what could have been her final appearance with TNA, Sky worked the Memphis Basebrawl event a few weeks ago.

    She is always presented as a big deal so I wonder if it's down to money or something for her?

    Never really got the measure of the entire situation but at one stage she was once in the Wrestling Observer referred to as a "management favourite ;)" and then later last year a report came out that Karen Angle was making on-air shoot comments about her being a floozy as a way to show what management thought of her.

    WWE would be absolutely crazy not to make an aggressive move for Bully Ray, in a lot of ways he's one of the most valuable wrestlers in the world. As for Velvet, no loss at all.

    If both are free agents will they turn up in wwe as the 'highly attractive people'.
    Hope Tna can keep hold of Bully cause I never want the Joseph Park feud to end and I am sick of wwe signing everyone lately in a style of Man City. Yeah we signed them but we haven't a clue how to use most of them.

    Kinda thought she was the most popular and hugely over diva in TNA, I wonder is it connected with Brooke Hogan's arrival

    Is she still with Chris Sabin?

    As far as I know she is. But, Sabin's contract is also up later this year.

    If she goes, that will be the last of the Knockouts who competed in the original title match. Gail Kim and ODB were in it too but both left for a while. Velvet is the last Knockout who has never left.

    Velvet's been removed from the roster page, which was kind of telegraphed when they abruptly moved away from her to Tessmacher at Slammiversary.

    Velvet Sky just posted on her twitter that TNA granted her release. I wonder if her leaving had anything to do with Angelina leaving.

    The layout of the GCU Arena for TNA Bound For Glory has been revealed, The configuration shown pretty much confirms Dixie Carter's prior comments on a recent "TNA Today" about holding the event "in the round."

    From looking around the site, it appears as if about 1/3 of the tickets were sold in the presale and in Day 1. For example, section 203 (facing center ring) is completely sold out, but section 213 (same area, opposite side) is sold out back to row 11 (of approximately 22 rows). The small bleachers are completely sold out. The venue holds 5000 for basketball, and will probably hold about 5,600 for Bound for Glory.

    3 Four Way matches for Hardcore Justice have been announced.
    Robbie E vs Bully Ray vs Jeff Hardy vs James Storm.
    Rvd vs Magnus vs The Pope vs Mr.Anderson.
    And the last a mouthwatering match between Samoa Joe vs AJ Styles vs Kurt Angle vs Christopher Daniels.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭Machismo Fan


    How do you make Styles/Daniels/Joe better? Add Kurt Angle. With the exception of swapping RVD and Robbie E. that's exactly how I would've broken it up.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭Machismo Fan


    1) Samoa Joe 47 points (5-2) 7 MATCHES
    2) James Storm 45 points (3-1-2) 6 MATCHES
    3) Kurt Angle 41 points (5-3) 8 MATCHES
    4) Mr. Anderson 40 points (5-4-1) 10 MATCHES
    5) Jeff Hardy 28 points (4-3) 7 MATCHES
    Rob Van Dam 28 points (4-2) 6 MATCHES
    7) Daniels 26 points (4-2) 7 MATCHES
    8) Magnus 21 points (3-5) 8 MATCHES
    9) AJ Styles 16 points (2-2-1) 5 MATCHES
    10) Bully Ray 14 points (1-3) 5 MATCHES
    11) The Pope 7 points (1-4) 5 MATCHES

    Those matches are worth 20 points each too. Pretty much everyone is back in play.

    The contracts for Bully Ray and TNA TV champion Devon are set to expire in about three weeks. There have been negotiations between the two sides, but the word making the rounds at house shows over the weekend was that the former tag tea, especially Bully Ray, is upset over how things have been handled.

    It was mentioned that some of the anger comes from the last minute nature of their re-negotiations.

    We reported several weeks ago that Bruce Prichard, who serves as Talent Relations for the organization, has reportedly asked numerous wrestlers to restructure their contracts. A company source says some talent who have time remaining on their deals are among those being asked to restructure, even if they’re due for raises. Many of those individuals believe they are being presented with “take it or leave it” type offers.

    Would be a big loss to lose Bully , Devon not so much
