Former WWE Superstar Paul London was scheduled to debut at Tuesday's TNA iMPACT! taping with Amazing Red as a tag team, but a deal fell through on London's side. It's being said that London wanted more money than they were willing to offer, although it should also be noted that he pulled out of some scheduled independent bookings this past weekend, citing a back injury. However, TNA officials weren't aware of any injury when he canceled the appearance. Whatever the case may be, they were not happy with how he handled things and he is no longer expected to debut in the organization.There was talk of using several different wrestlers including "The Guru" Sonjay Dutt as Amazing Red's tag team partner, but based on last night's spoilers, they're using a wrestler already on the roster.

TNA owner Jeff Jarrett tells the UK Sun that Bobby Lashley's mixed martial arts training will not prevent the former WWE Superstar from competing at 100% in TNA's six-sided ring. "We've addressed that and it's not a problem," Jarrett said.When asked whether it's important for TNA to keep bringing in new stars, Jarrett said, "Some come in and some go out – but that's what makes a good line-up. As you can tell from the response with Bobby, people have been very receptive. Nobody guessed!"Jarrett also took a shot at WWE, saying that he and TNA Wrestling have actually encouraged Lashley to pursue outside interests while being a part of TNA, such as his MMA career and other business ventures. "We're different from organizations. We want Bobby to be happy in both fields and we feel there is a good marketing aspect to it. MMA will help him - and it will help us," he said.Lashley makes his TNA television debut on this week's edition of iMPACT! and is currently training for his third MMA fight on June 27.

There's a rumor going around that former Playboy and Hooters model Beverly Mullins was released from her WWE developmental deal on April 14. The message was credited to Wikipedia but since has been removed. Furthermore, Beverly posted this heading on her MySpace page which fueled the rumor: "Every STORY has an END, but in LIFE every END is just a new BEGINNING!!!!"There was a report last year of Beverly, also known as Wesley Holiday, had some heat on her for no-showing some training shows and a Florida Championship Wrestling match. It's not confirmed that she has been released so just take it as a rumor until we hear anything else.
