– 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. PWInsider reports that 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.

– Talia Madison, now known as Velvet Sky recently signed a long-term deal with TNA.

– The TNA No Surrender 2007 DVD will hit store shelves this coming Friday.

– The TNA Fan Fest before Bound For Glory drew 400 to 500 people. When they said on TV that the Motor City Machine Guns t-shirt was the best selling item of the weekend, that was legit.

– Tomko is pushing for TNA to do an iMPACT taping at the Jan. 4 Tokyo Dome show in Japan. This would give iMPACT a different look on TV from the usual Universal Studios set.
