Backstage Reaction to How TNA Handled Jeff Jarrett’s Return, TNA Trying to Find Source of News Leak
– Morale was said to be at an all-time low at the recent set of TNA Impact Wrestling tapings. Apparently the Jeff Jarrett return didn’t sit will with some and there was a feeling that the company “kayfabed” everyone on his return for no reason, especially since he returned on a taped show and the company was happy the news got out on Twitter. They still hid the return from production workers, the wrestlers and the rest of the crew.
We noted last week via Brian Fritz of SportingNews.com that TNA production workers were told on June 25th that they wouldn’t be paid for the last set of tapings until July 15th or later. Production was under the impression that they would be paid when they came in for this set of tapings. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter notes that there was more heat in trying to find out which member of the staff leaked the story to Fritz than people being mad at the company for putting the production workers in this situation.
