» Al Snow, who was backstage at this week's set of iMPACT! tapings, was apparently not used at either show. He did not appear on last Thursday night's show, and it doesn't look like he's appearing on tonight's show either unless he filmed a backstage segment. SLAM! Wrestling talked with Al Snow this past week and the interview will be running tomorrow. SLAM! Wrestling revealed a quote from Snow regarding TNA. "I hope it evolves into something more or I wouldn¹t waste my time by going there," Snow said. "TNA is right on the cusp of making an impact."

» TNA had plans to continue using Al Snow, or rather, writer Vince Russo did, but they've been nixed. Russo was pushing to continue the Mick Foley vs. Al Snow feud at recent TVs, but Jeff Jarrett overruled him. Russo wanted Snow to join the Main Event Mafia, but Jarrett nixed the idea because he likes the exclusiveness of an all-world champion group. Also, TNA had plans for Trigg to join the Main Event Mafia because he has held titles in MMA, so he'd fit into the group, not to mention that he carries himself as a smug heel well. However, Trigg was unable to clear his schedule and missed the Impact tapings he was scheduled to film angles for.

» TNA will be keeping Brother Ray off TV to sell his attack from the Main Event Mafia on iMPACT! two weeks ago. Ray did not appear on TV tapings last week in Orlando set to air over the next three weeks. Ray was still at the tapings helping out backstage reports WrestlingINC.com.
