— Expect Ken Anderson to make his TNA return in the near future. Depending on current storyline direction, Anderson could pop up at the Bound For Glory pay-per-view on Sunday, or the Impact Wrestling television tapings the following Thursday.
— The upcoming Bellator MMA pay-per-view, which will be headlined by part-time TNA iMPACT! Wrestling performers Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and Tito Ortiz, and features another TNA part-timer in “King” Muhammad Lawal (King Mo) on the undercard, is having some trouble selling tickets. As of right now, the event has only sold 1,700 tickets, which is not a good sign. While ticket sales and pay-per-view numbers don’t always correlate, they are a more often than not a good indicator.
— As previously reported, Michael “Derrick Bateman” Hutter, who is the man that will be portraying “Ethan” in TNA, will go by the name Ethan Carter III. The company will be referring to him as EC3 at times, which is a takeoff of the RG3 nickname for the NFL quarterback, Robert Griffin III.
