Jeff Jarrett and Booker T apparently got into an argument at the iMPACT tapings last week. Jarrett at one point had a reputation for micromanaging certain aspects of the product, particularly overseeing matches. He apparently stepped on the toes of the agents by getting directly involved in laying out some matches. He stopped for a while, but observers say he’s overseeing the matches very closely again.
Jarrett got directly involved in an angle that Booker T was working on and it rubbed Booker the wrong way as he felt he should have been given more freedom as a locker room veteran.
Words were exchanged between the two, but they calmed down quickly. Multiple sources state that Booker speaks positively of TNA and Jarrett, but he’s not a fan of Jarrett’s work as head of creative. Meanwhile, Booker has a reputation of throwing superstar fits from time to time.
------------------------------------
TNA is interested in having Victoria join the Knockouts roster if she is interested. TNA has been looking for someone who can work and who they can push as a top babyface in the division. No word yet if WWE has her locked into a non-compete clause or not. It’s also possible that if it was her decision to just leave, then WWE could keep her locked in until the end of her contract.
- There hasn’t been much interest in the company of any of the other talents that were recently released by WWE.
- TNA continues to send feelers out to Ric Flair. Flair has said several times he is not interested in going to TNA, even though the company would likely make him a huge offer. As far as we know, there has been no direct talk at this point. Flair can’t legally participate in anything with TNA until 3/30, based on the terms of his release from WWE.
