F4WOnline.com is reporting that Generation Me's TNA contracts have expired. They will, however, continue to work for the company on a pay-per-appearance basis.
For awhile now, we have been reporting that TNA has been considering some type of ECW "Invasion" type angle involving Tommy Dreamer, Raven, Stevie Richards, and possibly other former ECW names. The Wrestling Observer is reporting that the idea is still very much being talked about in TNA, but creative doesn't know yet how they want to structure the angle..
Several ideas are being discussed, with one idea actually seeing an ECW-like show debut separately on SpikeTV. It's being said that it would be in TNA's interest to run more original programming on Spike as they can then charge the network more money to produce the shows and possibly increase income.
The ECW discussion are said to be coming at a time when TNA officials are growing weary of Hulk Hogan's influence on the company as many feel he has not contributed much, and Eric Bischoff is only serving as a sold on-air character.

Meh, the only thing that I can possibly believe with that is the contracts of the Tag Team being up. The rest sounds like things that were made up just based on reading to much into internet forums.
Didn't Hogan and Bischoff bring in talent such as RVD, Mr Anderson and various other people (not counting the Nasties)? It 'seems' in my view as a fan of TNA that he's done the company some good.
And when they're setting up a storyline, where they introduce Dreamer, I'm sure they had convinced him over the phone or in person about how his character on TV would go if he were to join up with TNA, or at least have the basic ideas down. They wouldn't introduce a storyline without these people if they didn't have a good idea where it'd go.

ECW is dead, let it rest and leave it alone.
There is so many other things TNA needs to focus on. However, I still think the other show thing needs to start up. I have said before, TNA has so many wrestlers that they need to have a second show sometime though the week. Perhaps Tuesday or Wednesday. Not a "talk show" or "recap show," but another show with actual matches.
