TNA star leaves promotion


Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrint

Travis Tomko parted company with TNA after last night's tapings in Orlando.  He had been in the doghouse with management and his push had stifled after he went to Japan for the Inoki Genome Federation instead of attending a TNA Fan Festival.  Tomko had been trying to balance contractual commitments in both Japan and the U.S. at the same time, which led to conflicts on both sides.

Kevin Nash left the tapings after being unhappy with a finish he was involved in, but since he's been groomed for an upcoming PPV main event with Samoa Joe, he had leverage and is expected to remain with the company.
