- There reportedly was some unhappy local Florida independent wrestlers at last night's Impact! taping in Orlando after several workers who showed up were told they weren't going to be used for the tapings. The general feeling among many wasn't that they weren't being used for the tapings, but rather not being contacted ahead of time so that they could pick up extra hours at their regular jobs. Many local talent are working the TNA tapings for free in order to "get in" with the promotion.- Ruffy Silverstein debuted last night at the Impact! tapings in Orlando, FL as the newest member of Team Canada. Silverstein is filling the slot for injured member Johnny Devine. For more, click here.- Shane Douglas is currently accepting independent bookings at this time.

Douglas has been working in TNA as both an agent and on-air interviewer for the Impact! show on Fox Sports Net.Credit: Mike Johnson @ PWInsider.com
