LAX/TNA Update, More On Dixie's New Home, Palin/TNA, Knockouts

TNA's mobile text messaging service announced today that the company has re-signed LAX members Homicide and Hernandez to three-year conract. Hernandez's contract was set to expire sometime next month, but now both members are signed to TNA through 2011. Homicide said in a recent interview with The Miami Herald that three years ago, "Mick Foley was giving me advice," Homicide told the The Miami Herald. "I was working for Ring of Honor then, and Mick Foley asked me if I would like to go to WWE. That was the decision to make – go to TNA or WWE." Homicide said the travel schedule and influence from Konnan helped him make the decision. "With less traveling, I picked TNA," he said. "I spoke to Konnan and told him I'd be willing to go to TNA. ... In December 2005, Konnan gave me a call and said, 'You're in. Just come to Orlando, and we'll build up LAX.'"

As noted earlier, TNA President Dixie Carter and her husband recently purchased a $2.13 million mansion on Hilsboro Pike in Nashville. The house is on 3.2 acres, has a library not to mention a yoga room. The home formerly belonged to country music star LeAnn Rimes. She's noted as Dixie C. Salinas, which is her married name. For anyone wondering, Shelly Martinez' TNA ring name Salinas derived from Carter's married name as an inside joke. Her husband, Sergio Salinas, is listed as the Director of Merchandising Purchasing for TNA.

There will be a TNA Knockouts title rematch at next month's Genesis pay-per-view on 1/11 as Christy Hemme will be challenging Awesome Kong once again.

TNA has plans for The Beautiful People and Sarah Palin skits to continue.
