-As you may or may not know, TNA's Youtube Account has been suspended and isn't likely to start up again. TNA started up their Youtube account without the consent of Spike and now that it's getting more popular, the theory is that it's hurting ratings. This, of course, isn't true, in fact CBS and NBC have reported 5% increases in ratings since putting up accounts of Youtube. It probably isn't helping that Viacom, who owns Spike, is currently suing Youtube.

-TNA is close to bringing in both Rikishi and Giant Bernard (A-Train)

-Lots of TNA contracts are expiring soon. Four expire this month with several more said to expire in September and October

-TNA is planning to begin a drug testing program in September. Talent will be given a 30 day notice.

-Due to TNA bringing in a bunch of heavyweights and focusing on them more in storylines, the rumor is that the X-Division title is being phased out. Kurt Angle is expected to win at Hard Justice and unify the World and X-Division titles, similar to what WWE did in 2002 with the IC title. No word on if and when the title will be brought back. Expect some releases soon.

Drug testing should be random.

Huh?? Then what would be the point of testing them??

I think they mean 30 days notice that it's starting.

The bigger news is phasing out the X Title. If it actually happens, we can all indulge in lulz as internet fags mourn the Vanilla Midgets losing tv time.

And signing Rikishi will cover for Joe leaving.

TNA, getting rid of the one thing that makes it unique? Awesome.

Everyone get out the Pepsi and Red Bull. The peeing on TNA's grave will commence shortly.

I knew Kurt would achieve total victory in TNA. I'm just sad the last X-Division champ wasn't Kevin Nash.

Looks like RoH will be getting back a lot of old names. I would love to see Black Machismo fight Morishima.

Test and Albert are BACK! T & A returns in TNA!

No, because that was the only thing that made Rikishi even slightly entertaining.

If this was anywhere but in TNA, I'd slap my forehead and mutter "What the fuck are they thinking getting rid of the X Title?"

This company is so fucking pathetic, it truly astounds me. Looks like that old saying of "one mans trash is another mans treasure" really is true . . . except, ya' know, replace the word "mans" with "companies".

It's really not a case of TNA being good so much as WWE being really bad. Personally I think WWE > TNA right now, but I think valid cases could have been made in 2005 and 2006, even as late as early 2007.
