TNA re-signs tag team champions Eddie Edwards & Davey Richards

TNA announced today that tag team champions Eddie Edwards & Davey Richards have signed new deals with the promotion.

Each man’s contract was set to expire on 4/30.

Edwards & Richards were two of the wrestlers referred to in recent Observer stories with names not listed of TNA talent that WWE was pursuing, but that TNA was offering more than WWE.

Their new deals will allow them to continue to work independent shows, however because they are getting guaranteed contracts, promotions will have to go through TNA to book them as opposed to directly going through them as in the past.
