       It looks like TNA original A.J. Styles appears to be departing
       from TNA. AJ Styles was one of the first guys to join TNA and
       has been with TNA from 2002.  AJm Styles’ current contract
       extension expires on the 16th of this month and he will be a
       free agent after that. to add more to this news AJ is still
       taking independent bookings.
       Like most of the people who have left TNA it will coe down to
       the money , it is being reported that AJ and TNA couldn’t come
       to terms on money.
       AJ's deal with TNA was ment to be up 2 months ago back in
       October but TNA and AJ agreed to a 2 month extension.
       TNA was unable to offer Styles what he had been making in the
       past with TNA.mit looks like AJ  Styles feels that he was a big
       part of the company and its brand and he wouldn’t agree to a
       lesser deal.
       It looks like The departure of Styles has reportedly “sent a bad
       signal” to other TNA originals like roode , storm , joe etc who
       have deals coming up soon .. With this big news TNa are sending
       out a big message to everyone in TNA that the company will lose
       their originals if they can’t make a deal what will fit their
       financial requirements.
       Good news fr you AJ fans Styles is stillmgoing to be taking Indy
       bookings and he is moving forward with his outside projects such
       as his autobiography and his participation in a speaking tour of
       the UK next year.

       I've said this before and it's worth repeating. Back in the NWA
       days before they became WCW they had a wrestler that was
       supposed to be the "franchise" player in Tommy "Wildfire" Rich
       they said that he was the "big deal" of NWA and they thought
       they would have problems If Rich left. He eventually did and the
       likes of  Rhodes and Flair lead the way. Then "Magnum" T. A. was
       supposed to be the next big thing for NWA, he had his accident
       and took him out and they thought there would be problems but
       NWA/WCW survived. It is a bad blow to TNA to lose Styles but as
       they say "life will go on." They have Magnus to try to fill the
       void, this is who their pushing big time now. Personally I would
       put A.J. Styles in the same excitement level in watching as I
       would put Chris Benoit. I wish Style the best in what ever or
       where ever he goes and does. A.J. you will be missed by the fans
       of TNA but good luck in your future endeavors.

       Seconded Robert. Every major company needs and has an ace, in
       WWE its John Cena, NJPW has Kazuchika Okada, ROH has The
       Briscoes.  You need a strong long term investment as a go to
       character, the long term narrative of the company depends on it.

       Being from Britain I want to like Magnus but he just isn't that
       exciting. Talking or matches for me. I've only been into TNA for
       a couple of years now and AJ was instantly a favourite, he has
       great matches and moves all the time and was a major factor in
       me keeping up with TNA.
       Seems like each time that TNA want to make a step up, the ground
       gets lower and their having to build from further down

       TNA tried to push James Storm and they found out that he wasn't
       capable of taking TNA to the next step. They've had some success
       with Austin Aries and Bobby Roode. For some strange reason they
       are pushing Robbie E and Jesse Godderz. That one I'm still
       trying to figure out on why the big push for those two mid-card
       wrestlers. Maybe there's something that they see in Magnus that
       we don't see as the fan. The biggest push in TNA right now is
       Magnus and it looks like they are turning into a Mama's boy like
       they did with Rockstar Spud. Rockstar Spud need to learn how to
       wrestle and learn how to handle a microphone because so far he's
       been terrible at both. Let's just hope that if Magnus is the
       next "A.J." to be the leader of TNA then lets hope that it's
       done correctly and they don't drop the ball like TNA has been
       known to do in the past few years. It's getting to be like the
       saying about the Chicago Cubs baseball team, "Wait till next
       year." We'll see how everything pans out in 2014 if they can go
       down the right road.

       Spud's been a main event wrestler in the UK for ten years
       Robert, believe me he can go, its just that he doesn't need to
       with his character so he doesn't. I think his mic work has been
       good for what it is, he's supposed to be an annoying suck up,
       and he has lived his gimmick if you read his twitter feed. I
       like the push for Robbie and Jesse, because Robbie has had to
       eat shit for two years and has done everything he's been asked
       with aplomb, its found Zema Ion a job and Jesse will never be
       anything more than a mid card guy unless he gets some exposure
       up the card, so I don't think thats a bad thing.
       As for Magnus, I love his character, but I'm with Greg his
       matches lack intensity which I think comes from a lack of time
       on the road. More experience at a younger age would have given
       him some more depth. It looks like to me he just needs to hit
       harder. I don't think this tournament has helped his credibility
       to much either. The match on Sunday (Thursday for US fans) was
       supposed to be an intense Last Man Standing, leave it all out on
       the field kind of thing, but as it was late in the show we all
       knew it could only last for ten minutes. Even with a screw job
       ending (another disease that's inflicting TNA booking), it still
       didn't look like they had hurt each other enough to get to that
       state, you have two cardio machines, let them go.

       Magnus has a character? He was a sneering arrogant young gun,
       then Samoa Joes tag partner, then a member of MEM. What is his
       character? A Brit in a suit? He's too bland for me.
       I'm sorry but TNA is really making me bored. Dumb storyline
       after stupid decision after wrong push after stumbling
       inconsistency - I can't take much more! Can anyone recommend a
       wrestling show I can watch that has a degree of organisation and
       consistency please?
