On last night’s episode of iMPACT Wrestling, Adam “The Big O” Ohriner was eliminated from the TNA Gut Check challenge before making it to the final round.
As it turns out, his competitor Ryan Howe wound up getting eliminated in that final round. However, after Ohriner was eliminated from Gut Check he took to his Twitter account to publicly praise iMPACT Wrestling.
He also thanked TNA President Dixie Carter and Director of Talent Relations Al Snow for giving him a chance. In his tweet, he also mentions that performing on iMPACT Wrestling was truly an incredible experience.
Here is the actual tweet from Ohriner:
Wanna thank @IMPACTWRESTLING @TheRealAlSnow @TNADixie and the rest of #Tna #Impact for giving me a shot, truly an incredible experience !

Much like the younger talent that was released this week, I am impressed with Adam Ohriner’s professionalism and dignity as he was eliminated from the Gut Check challenge. And as I’ve written in several posts from the last week, there are many older wrestlers who could learn a great deal about how to be humble and gracious from the younger generation of wrestlers coming up. The future of the business looks bright and it’s because the future will be built on guys like Adam Ohriner. We wish him luck in his career.
