According to multiple sources, there was a lot of talk backstage at the Impact Wrestling television tapings in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania last week that Austin Aries could be parting ways with TNA due to his contract expiring.
While we don’t know when Aries’ TNA contract officially expires, it is worth noting that during the summer when Aries was not being advertised for the 2015 TNA U.K. tour, many considered this a sign that his deal with the promotion would be up before the end of this year.
Kurt Angle’s contract expired yesterday and Gail Kim’s contract is also set to expire soon.
Following last week’s TNA television tapings, Aries tweeted the following, adding to the speculation that he may be departing the company in the near future:
Much love to my entire @IMPACTWRESTLING family. We all busted our ass and put our bodies on the line with passion and pride. Thank you.
