Effective immediately Homicide and Austin Aries gone from ROH, via TNA orders.

Here’s the story. Also, Bryan Danielson is confirmed by multiple sources to be appearing at the ROH PPV taping May 12th.

Also, their is a report out (PWG press release) that TNA is giving the indies using TNA contracted talent a letter saying they can not sell DVDs with TNA talent on them, so PWG has removed all TNA talent from shows as of today.

This makes sense from TNA business standpoint, but truthfully, if the talent doesn’t get work outside of TNA, they aren’t making enough money, and it seems like TNA has put itself against the other Indies in how they’ve handled themselves for five years now, and WWE doesn’t even acknowledge they exist. I have a feeling (and this is only the feeling of myself, John Philapavage) that today begins the true sink or swim for TNA that I’m frankly surprised didn’t come over a year ago. PPV buys aren’t making a profit, TV doesn’t make profit, and talent is unhappy. There really isn’t a piece of talent out there to make a difference (please don’t tell me Goldberg will have any impact, no pun intended). My guess is they have till the end of the year to succeed, or Panda is gonna wanna get the company off the books. Perhaps until March 31, depending on how they do their books.
