Tommy Dreamer’s latest run in TNA has concluded. Dreamer announced on the Busted Open show on SiriusXM that he and the company mutually agreed to part ways. “Yesterday I had a great conversation with Carlos Silva,” Dreamer stated while getting emotional on SiriusXM’s Busted Open Radio. “And me and TNA are no longer in a relationship. We mutually agreed to part ways. It’s hard. I’ve given… Sorry, I’ve given so much of my life to that company. I don’t have any ill will or malice. I want it to survive, and I want it to be the best it can be.” Check out the full clip below or via the Busted Open Twitter X page.
Powell’s POV: There was some buzz on Tuesday night regarding Brian “Road Dogg” James taking over the TNA creative team. One source is under the impression that TNA already has a deal with James. If that’s the case, then it’s unclear what the future holds for Hunter Johnston, who has been working as the head of TNA creative. While I have empathy for anyone affected by the potential shakeup, something needed to happen, as the product has been nothing special since Impact debuted on AMC on January 15. That said, it’s not all on creative, as the company really needs to do a better job of finding and signing young talent.

TNA is a tough watch, but in fairness to Dreamer, he doesnt have a lot to work with.
TNA has been terrible for a couple of years now. It’s worse than NXT and AEW, which is hard to be these days.
