Backstage News on Jarrett, TNA Buying Twitter Followers?, More

Posted on 09.20.12 | Category: TNA News

- Don’t expect to see Mickie James, Gail Kim, Eric young, Chavo Guerrero and Mr. Anderson on this Thursday’s episode of Impact Wrestling. They are booked the same night for a TNA live event in Salem, Virginia.

- For those who didn’t know, several brands purchase some of their Twitter followers. This gives the impression that they are more popular than they really are and serves as a form of advertising. Someone recently did an audit of TNA’s Twitter followers and found that of their 189,000 followers, only 27,639 of them are real and the rest are fake, in the sense that they went and purchased them.

- TNA is still developing the Aces & 8s storyline but it’s said that odds are less than 50% that Jeff Jarrett will end up being the leader. Jarrett is currently only working big shows for AAA in Mexico. He left his TNA duties to focus on Ring Ka King and the proposed Speed Channel project but since nothing has happened with either of those, it’s probably time for him to return soon.

    Damn that’s sad..

    Since morgan resigned maybe he’ll be the leader of aces and eights. It’s a shame tho, the aces and eights angle is like a month in and tna still doesn’t have an endgame for the storyline. Usually when a promotion starts a storyline they already decided how it will play out not have a wait and see approach.

    I’m thinking Eric Bischoff & Jason Hervey is behind the Aces & 8′s, they are the executive producers for the Discovery channels reality show “The Devils Ride”, which those of you who don’t know “The Devils Ride” is a reality show about a motor cycle club out of San Diego.

    And that would make perfect sense that Hogan had him booted out of TNA, and Bischoff makes an IMPACT somehow…
