There must be something wrong for people to have to even come out and address these rumours.
I would place money on TNA getting in these peoples ears and telling them to make sure they mention on their Twitter that they get paid. I think people like Hardy and Perkins have no issue boasting about making a hundred dollars from 5 days work and how it paid for their houses. Still doesn't mean the other 90% of the company is getting paid ... Taz walked out for that very reason.

Just wondering..but when was the last time tna uses Havok?. It kind of hard to remember when they tape 3 month of show in a day.

She at least explains pretty much the sole reason for any wrestlers wanting to go to TNA at this stage; whatever else they may or may not have to offer, TNA still has a lot more TV exposure than any of the other indy feds like ROH or Shimmer. That means appearing on TNA's tv shows increases a wrestler's visibility, which in turn, increases their price for indy work.

And the tradition of TNA talent being ridiculously thin-skinned continues...

I give her credit for not burning her bridges though.

Joey's tweet would have helped if he'd not botched her twitter name.
I do love how she separates NXT from WWE though. Even the workers are worked.

It's a case by case thing even with TNA having a bad rep with people. I've heard several indy wrestlers say that TNA treated them better in tryouts than WWE guys have, and I've heard the complete opposite as well. But for a lot of indy wrestlers the big thing is wrestling on national tv

kinda interesting that the statement which generated the largest emphasis from her was "My boyfriend is in NXT!!!" there's about a million ways someone could dissect that.

I'm really disliking this whole disdain of the fans vibe that wrestling is putting out nowadays. In no other form of entertainment would fans be actively told their opinions and feelings are worthless, shut up and sit down.

I wish somebody in the business could release a statement like this without using the term "dirt sheet". It just kills any credibility their statement might've had in the first place.

Then again, if "fans" weren't constantly crapping on the talent and companies (whether WWE or TNA) and harassing them on social media, all the while thinking they know the ins and outs of the business because they're reading websites copy/pasting & distorting dirt sheets newz, maybe they'd be taken seriously every once in a while.
EDIT : was answering to Richard.

We should be allowed to want to know more and we should be allowed to talk about whatever knowledge we have. Having the business tell us "shut up, marks" is damn right disrespectful to the people who fund the damn business in the first place.

I just can't take someone in their late 20s who discredits people with "DERP DERP" seriously.

Yeah but to me it says something that TJ Perkins of all people is making that kind of bank from TNA. He's not a Kurt Angle or even a Matt Hardy level star. Hell, he's not even a Davey Richards level star. You'd think he'd be one of the guys "not getting paid" if they weren't paying people.

TNA doesn't pay their wrestlers, wrestlers are leaving WWE due to pay cuts, NXT guys are getting paid in peanuts, WWE is no longer giving them PPV bonuses, there is no retirement plans for wrestlers. Wrestlers have to work their ass off and focus on their career 24/7 while on the road away from their loved ones. WWE makes their wrestlers wrestle hurt and threaten them that they will lose their push. Why would anyone want to be a wrestler?

So they're paying Havok to sit at home to do nothing? Man they're goofier than I thought, they don't have that type of money to dispose, she's gonna be like Lanny Poffo and just get paid for the next three years without doing anything
