TNA Management (Jeff Jarrett and his stooges) have decided to make an example of Austin Aries and Roderick Strong. The two X-Division stand outs and ROH regulars were told to skip last Saturday's ROH show and fly directly to Orlando for the Against All Odds pay per view. Apparently management was concerned that bad weather in the northeast part of the country would prevent them from making it to Florida in time for the pay per view.
Many other wrestlers did in fact cancel on ROH and did exactly what they were told. Strong and Aries decided to fulfill their commitments to the organization that made their careers. They flew into Orlando on Sunday and made it to the arena hours before the event started.
Apparently, making it to work on time didn't matter much and the fact that they "disobeyed" the worry-warts is going to cost them dearly. Aries and Strong have been removed from all bookings for the forseeable future. Word is this "suspension" could last months.
How about firing Jeff F'N Hardy or chornic junkie Sean Waltman? These guys have been given chance after chance by TNA by constantly pull no-shows - even at pay per view events! Not to mention that both Hardy and Waltman have VERY little to offer the company, they also ruin morale in the locker room.
Instead of "making an example" of two hardworking dudes who are just trying to make ends meet, why not give them a slap on the wrist type of warning? Job them out a couple times - put them into some dumb ass angle... but for cryin' out loud don't take away their ability to make a buck!
This reminds me of the old Clique days in the WWF. Shawn, Razor and Diesel would do stuff to piss of McMahon and Hunter was the one punished. Why? Cuz nobody gave a rat's ass about HHH back then. Ironic how THAT whole dynamic has done a 180.
“O” the hypocrisy.
