- Zeb Colter noted on Twitter that he and Jack Swagger will be "altering" their
strategy on Monday's episode of Raw. Zeb wrote the following:
"DUE TO
RECENT CONVERSATIONS WITH #WWE OFFICIALS, #wethepeople WILL BE FORCED TO ALTER
OUR STRATEGY. EXPECT IT ON RAW... WE VOW THAT OUR MESSAGE HAS NOT CHANGED. IN
FACT, OUR MESSAGE WILL GET STRONGER. #wethepeople WILL NOT BE SILENCED."
- We've noted how Jack Swagger has missed a string of recent WWE
live events and TV tapings, including this week's RAW and SmackDown.
WWE
has removed Swagger from all events until the June 29th live event in Cedar
Rapids, Iowa. It's worth noting that Swagger's next court date for his DUI is on
June 25th, just a few days before he's scheduled to return.
On Tuesday,
Swagger posted a photo of his hand with stitches:
"This what happens
when you say what THEY don't want you 2say...#conspiracy"
- F4Wonline.com reports that The Usos are being slightly re-packaged to seem
more credible for a feud against WWE Tag Team Champions Seth Rollins and Roman
Reigns of The Shield.
The Usos, who debuted new face paint last night on
RAW, tweeted the following:
"Big win against PTP!! Eyez on the prize
@wwetheshield!!! #Raw #WarTime All in All...thanks to all our fans for the
support from #Day1...been a long time coming!! One love uces!!!! #USOOO"
As noted earlier, the profile of Douglas Williams had been removed
from the roster page of the official TNA website. On Twitter, Williams
acknowledged his departure from the organization.
"Thank you to all the
great fans support during the past four years. Time for bigger and better
things," Williams wrote. "A huge shame I won't get the chance to train with
Rampage Jackson. What an honour that could have been."
Williams was
shifted to a trainer position in developmental promotion Ohio Valley Wrestling
last year after being phased out as an in-ring competitor.
Douglas Williams has been released from
TNA. This comes shortly after his profile page was removed from the Impact
Wrestling website along with Alex Silva, Todd Keneley, and Jesse
Sorensen.
Williams follows Todd Keneley in being dropped by the
promotion. The talk over the last few days was that some names may be dropped in
a cost-cutting measure, so there may be additional releasing
forthcoming.
images reportedly of WWE star Drew
Mcintyre at Slammiversary fan interaction have surfaced online. One image shows
Mcintyre at the event along with his ex-wife TNA Knockout Taryn Terrell.
TMZ.com covered the TNA Knockouts Last Woman
Standing match from this past Sunday's Slammiversary pay per view event. The
tabloid published exclusive photos of Taryn Tarrell's bruises. Taryn released a
statement about the match to TMZ. She said:
"People underestimate me for
being blonde and bubbly, but I'm an athlete, and I have a passion for wrestling
... I'll do whatever it takes to prove people wrong."
Douglas Williams, Alex Silva, Jesse
Sorensen, and Todd Keneley have all been removed from the TNA roster
page.
Douglas Williams remains a trainer for OVW, TNA's developmental
territory. Jesse Sorensen has taken a backstage role within the company, and it
is unknown what Alex Silva's current situation is, as he has been absent from
OVW for awhile.
Todd Keneley posted the following message
via his twitter
account following reports that he has been released from his announcer
position on Impact Wrestling. He wrote:
Thank you so
much for all of the support and compliments on my work. Can't tell you how much
I appreciate it. Really making my day!
TNA Announcer Todd Keneley has been
dropped from the promotion's announce team. TNA sources indicate Keneley was
informed by the promotion at the Slammiversary PPV, which as of now, was his
final appearance.
Keneley was brought into the promotion by Executive
Producer Eric Bischoff, who had used him on several previous projects. He
debuted for the company in October 2012.
The plan going forward is to
revert back to the old Impact Wrestling two man announcing team of Mike Tenay
and Taz.
TNA sources indicated the door was left open for Keneley to be
used down the line if a role was found for him. He was not dropped because of
unhappiness with his work, but rather a decision to streamline the announcing
team and he was not under contract and had the least seniority.

I have an ironclad contract! he screamed
through the phone. Ill take time off any time I want to, for as long as I want
to! I dont care if Booker doesnt like it. Im a giant! I dont do what other
people tell me to do. They do what I tell them to do. Ironclad means I answer
to no one. That includes Booker, and anyone else in WWE management.
