To update on the change within TNA of Bob Ryder taking over for Bill Behrens in booking TNA talent outside of the company for independent promotions, priorities are said to be much different now then they were before.
One of the main reasons TNA got into booking its talent with other independent and foreign shows was because they needed the money. As things stand right now from a financial standpoint TNA is doing much better and this area is being re-evaluated, especially after Mickie “Moose” Knuckles suffered a broken leg working an indy show in front of roughly only 60 people.
TNA has told Abyss that they no longer want him using thumb tacks in his matches. They will likely save that stuff for PPVs only.
