TNA News: Talent Possibly Leaving, Lawsuit Against the Company, More

– TNA has released a “social media” t-shirt, where you can write in your Twitter handle on the back in marker.

– While no names have been confirmed, there is talk of more talent leaving the company soon.

– On March 1st, UNA Mobile Transformation LLC filed a lawsuit against TNA in the United States District Court of Delaware. The lawsuit alleges that the company had violated their patent and trademark on how advertisements are delivered via TNA videos. UNA states that they created and patented how the ads are displayed and delivered and TNA, specifically in a recent video on Sting on the European tour, violated that. UNA is seeking a jury trial. TNA ha snot responded to the charges as of yet, and it should be noted that UNA has filed four other similar lawsuits since the beginning of 2012.

–Mike Johnson had the following to say about Nuclear Cowboyz, which was written by TNA writer Dave Lagana: I had the chance over the weekend to see the touring production “Nuclear Cowboyz”, a BMX stunt show produced by Feld Entertainment. As it turned out, the show was written by TNA writer and former WWE/ROH Producer Dave Lagana. As someone who has no understanding of that realm at all, I was pretty impressed by the production aspect of the show and the sheer insanity of the riders, who are doing insanely dangerous flips and stunts, sometimes in unison in mid-air with no netting underneath them. The precision needed to pull this stuff off was pretty mind-blowing. What was amazing to me is that this show was pretty much a WWE version of monster truck shows, with a pretty easy storyline (in the future, two warring groups of bikers have to unite to defeat a cyborg army), lots of pyro and highspots and of course, tons of merchandise to move. It was a pretty slick and fun two hour spectacle. The actual “story” was told through narration so that had to have been an interesting process to put it together based around the flips and highspots. They actually did a stunt with two riders on fire doing flips, which is probably the closest we’ll ever see to a “Ghost Rider” theatrical experience.
