Other TNA news:

Scott Hall fired by TNA (from bleacherreport.com)
Scott Hall, the man whose wrestling career could have been a topic of discussion for his in-ring work, was recently fired by TNA Wrestling for his actions outside the ring.

Instead of fans talking about his success in the ring, the focus on Hall’s career will be his personal problems.

Hall’s career started to crumble in 1998, when his alcohol problems became well known around the wrestling world. WCW featured Hall acting drunk on live television as a storyline that was really the wrestler’s true colors.

Several years ago, WWE released Hall for his erratic behavior. He went on to wrestle for TNA periodically between 2002 and 2005. After no-showing at the Turning Point pay-per-view, he signed with Juggalo Championship Wrestling. Hall moved on to perform for small independent organizations before making his return to TNA.

TNA gave Hall his final shot at making a successful comeback. On January 4, Hall and his good friend Sean Waltman returned to the company. However, Hall looked out of shape, and at age 51, didn’t have any business performing in the ring. Yet, he and the rest of “The Band” were awarded the TNA Tag Team titles.

After five months with TNA, it seemed that Hall was out of trouble and was rebuilding both his career and life. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case: He was arrested two days before TNA’s Sacrifice pay-per-view for disorderly intoxication and resisting arrest.

Hall went back to his old ways, which sent the wrestler packing in the first place.

According to Wrestling Inc., he did not inform TNA management the arrest, and that brought in some major heat. Despite working the event, Hall found himself in a major hole of which he could not get out.

According to many reports, Hall was fired by TNA just a few days ago. It is a sad ending to a once great performer struggling with his life.

Will we ever see Hall back in the ring? My prediction is Hall will never wrestle again for the WWE or TNA.

Fans may see him perform in small, independent houseshows, but that remains a question. Many promoters may ask themselves why anyone would want to be associated with Hall.

A once-promising career will be remembered as a sad ending to his wrestling days

James Storm suffered a shoulder injury at Slammiversary, but will not miss any ring-time for now.

"Fallen Angel" Chistopher Daniels may be returning to TNA very soon.

WWE's Hurricane may be joining TNA

Spoiler for Victory Road PPV

Here’s what the card for TNA Victory Road looks like atm:

TNA World Heavyweight Title Match
Abyss vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Mr. Anderson vs. Rob Van Dam

TNA Tag Team Title Match
Beer Money vs. The Motor City Machineguns

TNA Knockouts Title Match
Angelina Love vs. Madison Rayne

Ultimate X for the TNA X Division Title (cool, I was beginning to miss Ultimate X)
Brian Kendrick vs. Douglas Williams

Ric Flair vs. Jay Lethal (finally!)

[boo boo]

If I had a nickel for every time Scott Hall has been fired for something I'd be pretty wealthy.

And I hope the Hurricane joins TNA, that guy is a damn good wrestler but he's been stuck with that gimmick and has been a jobber in WWE for ages.

[Sljslj]

Well it looks like this time the thing with Scott Hall is for good.
Someone told me WWE isn't going to conduct him into the HOF because of this, which I think (if it's true) is really ****ed up.

[boo boo]

Yeah that isn't fair, Razor Ramone was one of WWE's biggest names in the early 90s and his ladder match with Shawn Michaels from Wrestlemania 10 is legendary.

Tonight's TNA Impact! Results: (my personal favorites in bold)

The show started with Eric Bischoff announcing that, due to Scott Hall's recent actions, the band (Hall, Nash, Eric Young) was stripped of the TNA Tag Team Titles and there would be tournament to decide the new tag champs.

Round 1 TNA Tag Tournament Match: Ink Inc def. The Band

Samoa Joe def. Hernandez. Matt Morgan attacked Hernandez when the referee was checking on Joe, who'd been thrown out of the ring.

X-Division Champion Douglas Williams def. Max Buck in a non-title match.

TNA Knockouts Champion Lacey Von Erich def. Angelina Love via disqualification. Love grabbed a chair from ringside and DDTed Von Erich onto it.

Round 1 TNA Tag Tournament Match: Beer Money Inc def. Team 3-D. Brother Ray of Team 3-D attacked Inc Ink when he saw them sitting at the announce table, leaving Brother Devon on his own. Brother Ray is an idiot, he really needs to stop this bull**** with Ink Inc.

Jay Lethal def. Desmond Wolfe. Ric Flair came out and began to beat on Lethal, but Hogan came out, scaring off both Flair and Wolfe.

TNA World Heavyweight #1 Contender's Match: Abyss v Jeff Hardy v Mr. Anderson resulting in a triple disqualification. The action spilled out to ringside and resulted in referee Earl Hebner calling for the bell, since the 10-count as exceeded. Abyss went absolutely crazy and began beating on Anderson and Hardy, eventually doing a Black Hole Slam to Anderson onto a pile of broken glass and chokeslamming Hardy onto the concrete by the entrance ramp. Hogan comes out an asks Abyss what the reason is for his actions, Abyss points at Hogan an says "You!".

And that's the show. Very good Impact! tonight.

Yes, but because you're posting results up the moment they happen I can't come in this thread.

So what should I wait like 24 hours before giving the results? Cuz there's people in other time zones or whatever and they've yet to see it?
