Vince McMahon Reportedly Furious Upon Ric Flair Making TNA Debut

According to the Pro Wrestling Torch Newsletter, WWE Chairman Vince McMahon was reportedly furious when he saw a video of Ric Flair making his TNA Wrestling debut on January 4th - the first time that TNA's iMPACT! went head to head with RAW. The story goes that he was shown a video of him making his debut and then McMahon proceeded with throwing down his headset (McMahon executive produces RAW) and then kicked it. Apparently, even though it was heavily rumored everywhere, McMahon didn't expect him to make his debut with the company and was angry about the whole situation to say the very least.

*SPOILER* On D-Generation X Breaking Up

It would appear that the latest D-Generation X run is coming to an end as Shawn Michaels said during an interview with the KISS-FM radio station out of San Antonio this past week that DX will "probably disband" following the Royal Rumble so they can focus on their respective matches at WrestleMania. When asked if he had any plans on retiring, Michaels said: "Well, that's always the million dollar question. I'd like to go on record as saying I have been trying to retire for the last three years... [WWE] makes it very difficult, you know, Vince McMahon is nuts. I try to walk away then WrestleMania comes up, they put me in a match, I do well, and [Vince] doesn't make it very easy." Also it would appear that he had zero input in selecting matches for WWE's upcoming DVD release on him, Shawn Michaels: My Journey. He responded with the following: "They found my 25 greatest matches?" It had been rumored that Michaels would handpick his favorite twenty-five matches of his career for the DVD release

News On Scott Hall’s TNA Future


More than one source within TNA is claiming that the roster enjoys having Scott Hall around, despite the problems hes caused for company management. Hall has a reputation for being very generous with his knowledge when talking with younger wrestlers, and there has been serious talk of testing the waters with Hall as an agent. One main event-level TNA star has been very vocal about Hall being qualified for the job, citing his creative input during his WWF and WCW days.
For those unaware, the road agent job is to work with the roster in setting up matches and storylines, and relaying instructions to them from the creative team. Road agents in WWE and TNA are usually retired wrestlers, such as Arn Anderson, Terry Taylor, Ricky Steamboat and Jerry Brisco.
With reports coming out after TNAs Genesis PPV that Hall and Sean Waltman are both relying heavily on pain pills, the duos future as on-screen talent in TNA is still up in the air.
