• It looks like the struggle for power behind the scenes in the NWA-TNA continue to go on. As of right now, NWA-TNA founder Jerry Jarrett has taken himself out of creative direction process, leaving his son Jeff and Vince Russo to write up the shows. Russo has been trying to convince Panda Energy executives that Jerry Jarrett is trying to ruin a lot of his ideas. Jerry believes that Russo will eventually live or die on his own and is just waiting to see what the outcome of it will be.

• Stephanie McMahon continues to make waves backstage, as she informed the creative writers for the WWE to not disagree with any of the ideas that Vince McMahon comes up with. While this has been the unoffical rule for a while, many people believe that it's the reason Paul Heyman was removed from being head of Smackdown's creative staff because he disagreed with too many of Vince's ideas.
