Sapp/TNA Plans, Kazarian Impressing, LAX Backstage News

The feeling within TNA is that the LAX team works very hard but without Konnan for their promos they won't be above-average players on TV. There is still tremendous heat between Konnan and TNA, both sides pretty much hate each other. TNA is looking at the possibility of making Tomko/AJ vs. LAX into a long running feud. TNA has been holding back on pushing LAX due to Konan's absence, despite Homicide and Hernandez being viewed as one of the company's hottest acts.

The Christy Hemme/Lance Hoyt strife and Jackie Moore/James Storm strife have been put on hold because they already have the same angle going on between Robert Roode & Ms. Brooks, and oftentimes Kurt & Karen Angle.

According to Mike Johnson if TNA can sign Bob Sapp the plan is to feud him with Kurt Angle first and then Samoa Joe.

Kazarian has really improved his standing in TNA with two very strong matches with Christian and one with Kurt Angle. While he still needs a lot of work on his television personality, his look and work ethic are there; thus he will continue to be placed in angles with top talent.
