TNA Talent Not Paid?, Sting's BFG Screw-Up, iMPACT Rating

– The PWTorch Newsletter reports that TNA only pays their mid-card and under-card wrestlers if they work, and it doesn't cost them anything if they don't use them at the tapings opposed to the main eventers who get paid whether they work or just sit around backstage. TNA has a lot of talent under contract right now, and the creative team is said to be under pressure to book as many wrestlers as possible per taping because they know they aren't getting paid unless they work.

– TNA iMPACT on Thursday did a 0.9 rating. While the details aren't available yet, keep in mind that it was a three hour show and the third hour likely dragged down the number.

– At the end of TNA's Bound For Glory PPV last night, the stage manager was going ballistic because Sting wasn't facing the hard camera when he did his promo. They kept motioning for him to turn around.
