As we previously reported, late paychecks and diminished dates have caused recent backstage frustration in TNA.

According to both PWInsider.com and F4WOnline.com, TNA talents have finally started receiving their paychecks, and they began to arrive on Saturday of last week and yesterday. To try and make up for previous delays, a source noted to PWInsider that TNA talents would be receiving their March checks earlier than scheduled.

As noted, Taz missed the last set of Impact Wrestling tapings, and the reason is not yet known. Dave Meltzer notes repercussions could be coming for Taz’s absence.

Meltzer is describing things in TNA as a lot worse than the end of the run they had on SpikeTV, as there seems to be a lot of unhappiness across the board with company momentum and a feeling of stagnation.

Before I get attacked for running another “negative” TNA report, I’d like to add that nothing above is an indication of how good or bad the current Impact Wrestling product might be, as personally I feel it to be as strong as ever. The report is meant to be an indication of how talents are feeling right now, and how late paychecks and reduced dates have impacted their company outlook.
