Ross Forman, who was in the public relations department and has been with the company almost from the start, was let go a few weeks ago although it just became public this past week. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter speculates that his release was due to budget cutbacks, but they were wrong.
The thing that people were talking about that may have nailed Forman was something completely out of his control. Among the things he did was put together the TNA trading cards deal with TriStar since he’s got a legit sports background, and he did all of the writing for the cards. Everything he wrote had to be approved before it went out. For the most recent set of cards, the focus theme on all the cards was TNA was taking over Monday nights. Well, the day the cards came back to be shipped out was the day after Spike moved them back to Thursday, and there was an office uproar, particularly from Dixie Carter about the cards pushing Monday. A few were surprised noting that Forman is super tight with Kevin Nash dating back to the WCW days, and figured Nash would have been able to save him.
