Kip James Pushing To Get Back In TNA, Rayne’s Gimmick, More

Kip James is taking bookings though his page on MySpace.com. Fans and promoters can keep in touch with Kip at www.myspace.com/officialkipjames Based on online reports, it would appear that Kip James is no longer an on-air character in TNA Wrestling as company president Dixie Carter reportedly made a decision to remove him from television a few weeks ago. A fan has launched a petition to save James’ role as an on-air performer in TNA, which you can see at www.petitionspot.com/petitions/savekipjames Kip himself is pushing the petition in his blog. According to fans in attendance at Monday’s iMPACT! taping in Orlando, there were a lot of “We Want Kip” chants during the Madison Rayne vs. Taylor Wilde match.

As reported earlier, TNA Knockout Madison Rayne wrestled at the pilot television taping for the all-new women’s wrestling promotion Wrestlicious this past August. You catch spot her at the 0:06 and 2:19 marks in the promotion’s demo video released last week wrestling Daffney (who is portraying a vampire character by the name of “Draculeta”). Rayne was gimmicked up herself at the taping as they put her in a blue cheerleader costume, wrestling under the name “Amber Lively.” As seen in the demo video, she teamed up with Lacey Von Erich for at least one match.
