The guy didn't want to leave and is crewing the Aro Lucha events that are happening. This is TNA cost cutting, they can just borrow a normal ring from an indie in the area they are taping and will be able to keep things in line with the shit they're taping at various indies as well. Here is a bit from PWinsider with his full statement: He also did more than the ring crew: Oh wow, he isn't taking time off for health reasons? Jesus yeah that reflects super badly on them that he was fired for cost cutting reasons. When you considered how they "took care of" Jesse Sorensen a while back, it's the same TNA with a different name.

"Hey guys we need to cut costs, who goes? Our likely overpriced and over terrible commentator and social media guy who could be improved on by anyone halfway competent?"
"Nah, let's axe our 2 most valuable bts guys, Sahadi and Rosen"
"Wait...what about Gabruik? If he have Cyrus and D'Amore we don't need him..."
"I really feel like we need to can our world class production guy and the man who makes our events happen logistically"
"Shouldn't we get them to work with their replacements first to ensure the handover works?"
"HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH. No. Son this is TNA. Fire Sahadi and Rosen."
"But..."
"FIRE. SAHADI. AND. ROSEN."

I'm imagining that at an upcoming show, the impact (sorry) of someone taking a body slam will cause the ring collapse and they'll play it off like the Lesnar/Big Show ring collapse of 2003.

He finished up at the last tapings and his contract runs out at the end of the year.

I imagine the talent can’t be very happy with this either. Impact better pray whoever they bring in now learns quick. Anyone gets injured as a result of a shitty ring, lawsuit city. Not that there’s any money to be won.

Matches will now take place at Bill Apter's apartment, The Old Ultimate Surrender building, and wherever Seth Rollins filmed those fetish videos. Well, buying the SF Armory would be a good counter to Lucha Underground's Temple...

Hopefully that bit about going back to 4-sided rings is true, at least. Firing the guy in charge of building your overly complex and not-at-all-worth-it 6-sided ring is bad enough, but imagine them outsourcing the job to fans or something. The amount of tension those ropes must be under could probably do some nasty stuff if someone f***s up the assembly.

Guy almost died for this company, and this is how they treat him.
Are we sure Anthem is a Canadian company, because they sound more and more like an American company every day.
