Karen Angle is no longer being used by TNA and the last TV taping was looked at as her farewell from the company. It is possible the company will bring her back. Her profile was removed from the TNA website earlier this weekly only to be re-added. Joesph Price sent us word that her photos were also removed and then re-added to the “TNA Knockouts” photos section of TNA’s website. TNA making the decision to no longer use her largely had to do with her filing for divorce with Kurt Angle recently. There are some conflicting reports making the rounds as to whether or not there was tension between the two backstage. Initial reports stated that they were getting along fine and that no one noticed anything.
Recent reports stated that some tension was noticeable among many at recent TV tapings. Either way, it was felt that it would make a better work environment if she wasn’t around and the company didn’t have any big plans for her anyway. A long-term storyline was set in place a few months ago of Kurt and Karen finding “new romances” to be used on TV, but when the marriage split up in real life the plans were dropped. While she had been doing the “Karen’s Angle” segment on iMPACT! for the last few months, the general reaction among many was that they were not good segments. Adding to the fact that she was no longer married to one of the company’s top stars and she was probably one of the highest paid women on the roster, the decision to no longer use her came as an easy decision.
