— Traci Brooks has left the company. Brooks reportedly is just moving onto something else as opposed to quitting or being fired. She left on good terms with the company. A return is possible down the line, but not anytime soon.

— As noted earlier here on the site, X-Division wrestler Tony Nese requested and was granted a release from TNA Wrestling. Nese posted the following to his Twitter about leaving the company: I have recently been approached with an opportunity to step in the ring with The Great Muta, a wrestling legend, and one of All Japan Pro Wrestling’s top wrestlers Kai. This is an opportunity that I feel with help me further my goals and career. This event will be provided via IPPV and unfortunately my TNA contract did not allow me to perform on such events. I requested that an exception would be granted given my lack of appearances but was denied. My next action was to request a release as I think it will be in my best interest. I would like to thank TNA Wrestling for helping me achieve one of my goals as it is very few in this business that are able to say they have. I would also like to thank all the people that support me as this is just a small chapter coming to an end in my career and I have many more exciting opportunities in my future to come.
