Stomper's 'Death', Has RVD Talked With TNA?, Backstage News

If TNA has talked with Rob Van Dam regarding a possible relationship with the company, it's been kept quiet. RVD also hasn't talked with ROH, at least as of last weekend. However, the belief is that he'll work at least a few ROH dates if his price is reasonable.

Scott Steiner is expected to remain in the Intensive Care Unit at a hospital in San Juan, Puerto Rico for a few more days. He awoke from surgery on 6/6 and was in good spirits. It was a very serious operation and he needs to be monitered in the event of an infection. Steiner's wife and Jeremy Borash are both staying with him in Puerto Rico until he is allowed to fly home. However, there is no date as to when he will be able to fly home. As far as a return to the ring is concerned, it's going to be a while. He will likely be out of action for at least a few months. Early estimated pegging at missing six months at most.

Stomper the Kangaroo, which was the TNA mascot that made a few appearances in the Impact Zone last month, appears to be a dead idea. We'll see on Tuesday at the tapings.
