– Reaction to Scott D’Amore’s firing…
I'm just going to say it. Without @ScottDAmore Impact/TNA would be a video library probably owned by WWE. I saw him strip that thing down to the studs and rebuild it on a less than skeleton budget to where it stands today which is ready to take off. Hope it survives-Massive loss!

– Cody Rhodes cut an emotional promo after the cameras stopped rolling this past Monday on Raw, where he told the crowd he was moved by how much support they had given him over the past few days.
Cody said that all he ever wanted was to be accepted by the fans but that they need to “let things play out” and trust in the fact that he knows what’s he’s doing.
The D’Amore firing has really blown up in the face of TNA. It’s clearly upset and angered the talent, which might lead some to re-think about re-signing with the company. It’s gotten to the point where social media team for TNA has turned off comments on all post regarding the firing.
