SPIKE TV Cancels TNA Wrestling

By BJPENN.COM News - July 30, 2014

Rampage Jackson, Tito Ortiz & King Mo just lost their part-time gig over at TNA wrestling.

At least, that’s what one would think, considering SPIKE TV just cancelled the program.

TMZ has the scoop:

TNA Wrestling’s flagship show “Impact Wrestling” could soon be without a home — Spike TV quietly let the league know it’s not renewing their TV contract … TMZ has learned.

Multiple sources with direct knowledge of the deal … tell us Spike execs contacted TNA President Dixie Carter late last week to break the news — and the following day Carter informed members of her inner circle.

TNA’s current deal with Spike reportedly runs through October. It’s unclear at this point when “Impact Wrestling” will stop airing on Spike.

We’re told there’s no bad blood, and Spike gave TNA such advance notice so it would have time to shop for a new TV deal.

TNA’s show debuted on Spike TV in October 2005 — and helped the league rise to #2 on the wrestling scene … behind the WWE.
