Remains to be seen if it's a real release or a work. He did spit in Cena's face and choked out an announcer with his tie so being WWE that could definitely get him fired. He will easily get work around the world again and hopefully TNA if it's a real release.

Dixie Carter has tweeted about a big announcement at Slammiversary that will change TNA forever at every level, it will be interesting to see what that is.

Bet you it involves Flair. *

latest on lords of pain reckons he's been canned for the spot where he was choking justin roberts with his tie, i saw that on yootoob the other night and thought that was a bit much, i noticed when i was watching the replay thursday that they didn't show it, although you could see it occuring on one of the wide shots.

i dunno whether they're still being tough on this sort of things following the benoit incident.

well, it affected the ring, as they were restricting performers using choke holds and stuff like that, and benoit's crossface finishers was totally banned, HBK started using it occasionaly about 18 months afterwards.

Didn't realize that, well I knew about the crossface but nothing else.

Dixie Carter has put the following on her twitter.

To clarify. I will not be making an announcement about how TNA will change forever. You will just see for yourselves in the coming weeks.

However, there is still a nice surprise on tonight's Slammiversary pay-per-view. Headed to the venue now.

TNA may be taking TV tapings on the road i've seen somewhere.
