Andrew “Test” Martin is already gone from TNA Wrestling. Martin was brought in last month and was immediately pushed into a top match at TNA’s last PPV. The reason for his firing is his unreasonably muscular physique. At a time when TNA is being investigated by the United States Congress, Martin stuck out like a sore thumb and management was convinced he could not pass a drug test. Test was told he could come back to the company when he loses considerable weight.
We’ve got 2 big rumor killers regarding top TNA stars. It was reported this week that Alex Shelly was no longer with the company. Shelly worked a worked a PWG (indy) show in California last weekend, which lead many to believe that the reports were true. Although Shelly is painfully underutilized in TNA, he is NOT leaving – he actually has over a year left on his 2-year contract.
There were also reports that Samoa Joe is on his way out of TNA. These reports are also NOT true. Joe has approximately 2 years remaining on his TNA contract. Joe DID recently turn down a contract extension, but the reason is that Joe is happy with his current contract and wants to evaluate things when that deal eventually expires.
