— TNA officials directed the roster not to speak publicly about Kurt Angle’s arrest. TNA Knockout Taylor Wilde seemed to break that rule with a Twitter statement–“Just arrived in Orlando! can’t wait to see all the Knockouts, but not because I’m a stalker or anything”–that appeared to be in reference to Rhaka Khan’s claim that Kurt Angle was stalking her, but she later clarified, “Wow, that inside joke got blown out of proportion. Its not what you think it is, trust me.”
— Roster member Awesome Kong confirmed on her Twitter that TNA has signed a three year deal to remain on Spike TV. An official press release, which will answer the question of whether TNA received its request to get more original programming time on the network, is forthcoming.
— Beginning with the current round of tapings, Taz will replace Don West as the TNA color commentator, joining Mike Tenay in the booth. According to PWInsider.com, West has not been fired–no longer a commentator, he has assumed a more significant position in the merchandising department.
