Regarding new faces coming into TNA, it’s said that the company has 6-7 confirmed names that will be coming in soon, if not tonight on iMPACT then in the next few weeks.
Rumored names like Sid, Paul Heyman and Rob Van Dam are not expected to be there tonight. Heyman may not happen at all (there have been talks) and Van Dam’s reported signing has not been confirmed. Sid is expected to come in soon but was recently injured overseas. It is confirmed that Angelina Love has re-signed with TNA and with the company requesting the entire roster tonight, she is expected to be there also.
Scott Hall and Sean “X-Pac” Waltman are said to be pretty much a lock for tonight’s live show. Hall was telling people at the Hulk Hogan debut party yesterday that Waltman would be with him on iMPACT. Hall also was overheard saying they were trying to get Kevin Nash to dye his hair dark again.
TNA has reportedly asked the entire roster to be in attendance tonight, including Sting. There was a backstage meeting held earlier today with Hogan and others. There were also creative meetings held last night as well.
As noted earlier, Eric Bischoff, Jason Hervey, Scott Hall, Sean Waltman, Orlando Jordan, Val Venis, and The Nasty Boys are all backstage right now. Whether or not Jordan, Venis and The Nasty’s appear on camera tonight remains to be seen. In the case of Hall and Waltman, we already know they’ll be on the show in some form or fashion.
