Alex Shelley Posts Story About TNA's Booking Issues & Pay Cuts

By Kellie Haulotte

Alex Shelley shared a story on Twitter tonight about TNA's booking issues that included current IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kazuchika Okada, The Young Bucks, and Brian Kendrick.

Shelley started off by sharing a photo of the group mentioned above with the caption, "So, here we go. None of us were booked for TV that day in Orlando" and explaining how TNA's booking decisions were "moronic."

"A little more context on the photo: TNA sent a runner out to the park to wrangle tourists into the studio," explained Shelley. "You could get your picture taken with the X-Division Title and be ushered into the studio to serve as an audience member. We decided to get our picture with the belt as a total pi– take. The runner didn't recognize us at all. No room for us on the show though, too busy with Nasty Boys and Orlando Jordan pantomiming ejaculation with lotion while watching Rob Terry wrestle. No offense to The Nasty Boys or Orlando Jordan. All the offense to whomever decided to not have us wrestle, cut our pay, and overlook us. Over and over and over again. These things happening for years and seeing how my friends were treated (and they truly loved wrestling) were the catalyst for me going back to school. So I didn't have to put up with such moronic decisions controlling my future, financially or emotionally. Thank God for @njpw1972."

This Friday at ROH's Summer Supercard Alex Shelley will be facing ROH World Champion Matt Taven for the title. Summer Supercard will be at the Mattamy Athletic Centre in Toronto.
