Impact Wrestling on Pop TV

UPDATE 2: In an update to the previous story that several talents who were booked for next week’s Impact tapings had their flights and matches cancelled, PWInsider is claiming otherwise. The site claims there have been no no flights or talents canceled for the tapings and that, as of now, no changes in ownership in the company.

Billy Corgan is set to appear tomorrow on ESPN Radio at 11:30 AM.

UPDATE: Wrestling Inc reports that according to a “veteran TNA talent,” everyone in TNA is nervous about the company’s impending sale. The situation is described as a “new level of concern” above and beyond the usual uncertainty about the company’s status.

Several wrestlers who were booked for next week’s Impact tapings have had their flights and matches canceled, with the aforementioned source saying he wasn’t even sure if he would be on the Bound For Glory card because the company was trying to save as much money as possible.

ORIGINAL: WZ is reporting new details on TNA’s potential sale, which is obviously the big story of the past several days. According to the site, Billy Corgan has a net worth of $40 million, but as Corgan told Busted Open Radio he is bidding on his own and has no investors.

While the potential sale price of the company is not known, the site says that TNA has had enough financial trouble that Corgan becoming the new owner would not solve all of those problems. At the last Impact taping, checks that were long past due were being signed, validated and distributed as TV was going on.

There aren’t any further details at this time regarding what the chances of WWE buying the company are although as has been reported, they have been involved in bidding.
