TNA Makes Two Releases & Re-Signs Six Wrestlers

--As the launch of Impact Wrestling on Destination America approaches, the official TNA website has been updating its roster page. 

Former “TNA Global Champion” Rob Terry has been moved to the alumni section. Terry has been working for TNA off and on since 2009, and has been a part of both the Immortal faction, and the British Invasion. In August of 2014 he re-debuted as “The Freak”, a part of Knux’s carny-inspired stable called The Menagerie. 

Terry has no mention of TNA in his Twitter profiles (other than the word “impact” which is still ambiguous enough not to lose your verified status over), so it may be as simple as not receiving a new contract after many of the mid-card deals expired after Bound for Glory in 2014. 

Interestingly, while Bellator MMA fighter King Mo remains on the current roster list, Rampage Jackson has also been moved to the alumni section. Rampage recently made headlines by re-signing a contract with the UFC, claiming that Bellator had breached their deal by not providing adequate pay-per-view numbers. It appears that his move back to the UFC may have solidified his removal from the TNA roster, although it’s worth noting that neither has appeared on any wrestling show since last summer.

--Kurt Angle noted a couple of weeks ago that he would be re-signing with TNA. Apparently the deal was finalized this week.

TNA announced the following today:

--John Gaburick announced today that Abyss has re-signed with the company. As noted yesterday, Kurt Angle’s re-signing was made official this week as well.

--Ethan Carter has signed a new deal with the company. He joins Abyss and Kurt Angle as names that have signed new deals with the company.

Don't think those "releases" actually even matter xD.

Yeah because after when Orlando Jordan was let go, Rob Terry being there was pointless.

So there's no more chances for WWE to have a deal with Kurt Angle...

They were working on one, and Triple H with his Ego was so against it. I'd love to see Kurt in the WWE though. As long as he tries DDP Yoga and gets back into shape.

I was so ready for Kurt's return to the WWE eventually. He hinted it for so many years. Even Vince was all for an in ring return from Angle.

Triple H doesn't know what really is best for business

I don't know do I like or dislike the fact that Angle is still with TNA. Sure, he can have good or even great matches in there but then again I wanted to see him in WWE once again.

We can't really say that taking into account everything he's done with NXT. Rejecting Angle aside, he's done a hell of a job.

Rampage Jackson hasn't appeared since MEM vs A&8s feud and can't be counted as wrestler  , and Terry still didn't found enough fan support and success after all those reboots . They aren't going to be missed .

Remember Rob Terry's face turn back in 2013? It actually had potential then he started dancing after his matches and I instantly knew he was done for. He'll be better off on the Indy circuit anyway.

Exactly smh.

Last time I saw Jessie Godderz, he was improved a lot.

Is Anderson getting more money now? Anderson was getting lesser money than normally.

Good that they got Anderson & Rayne back.
