Questions Being Asked About TNA's Future, More On AJ Styles' Contract Status, Tonight's Impact

- Tonight's episode of TNA Impact Wrestling will feature Sting vs. Bully Ray in the main event, a Last Chance Gauntlet match with all 12 Bound For Glory Series competitors, Chris Sabin's return, a special performance by Mickie James and more.

- As noted, AJ Styles has signed a three-month contract extension with TNA. AJ's original contract with TNA called for raises each year. The new contract they were trying to get him to sign called for no raises and locked him in at his current salary. TNA did not give him a contract cutting his money. Both sides essentially agreed to at least work together until the end of this year, then they will see how or if the landscape has changed.

- Internally, there all kinds of questions being asked about the state of TNA. According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the situation is described as feeling similar to the end of the original ECW. A lot of people are still behind on pay, or at least were as of the last set of Impact tapings, particularly on the production side. Those issues, combined with Dixie Carter skipping last week's tapings to attend a college football game, led to all kinds of questions being asked about their future.
