Yuki Mashiro of Ice Ribbon acknowledges the workers have not been getting paid and the President seems to be AWOL.

::: spoiler Spoiler technically included for today's show >Yuki Mashiro tearfully talked about unpaid wages and no communication from Ice Ribbon President Kazuhito Goshima after winning the ICE×∞ Championship: >"Well... I can't go into details, but we haven't been able to get in touch with him since a month ago, or since last month, or maybe late last month, and all of our calls and contacts have been cut off, and he hasn't responded to anything. No matter how many times we contact him or call him, he doesn't respond. Even though we all contacted President Goshima, he never responded, so we were all really anxious going into today. What should we do? What should we do? How? Everyone is naturally really anxious about the president being gone, and yes, we're putting our bodies on the line, risking our lives to do this, so the fact that the person who is in charge of the money and other aspects is gone, I'm sorry, I can't really explain it well, I'm sorry." >If wrestlers' salaries are not being paid: >"I can't say it myself, but that's the situation. Yes. That's why I was in a very anxious state heading into today." :::

[RJ City on Toni Storm] I honestly haven't seen anyone so wrapped up in a whole thing that is unique to themselves since, I don't know, The Undertaker? And she's not doing half-ass horrible podcast."

[Nitter](https://nitter.poast.org/DrainBamager/status/1847337963455410468) Full quote: >“She makes any piece of shit work, because she's so talented and so committed. I honestly haven't seen anyone so wrapped up in a whole thing that is unique to themselves since, I don't know, The Undertaker? And *she's* not doing half-ass horrible podcast now, know what I mean?. She's not wearing weird problematic shirts and being like, 'wrestling is not telling stories.' >Thanks, Mark. I really appreciate it. His show is weird. The guy is weird. He's a weird man. 'Back in my day it was a lot better.' I'm sorry, were you always dead? Did you start off dead? Would you like to explain that?”

Matt Hardy: TNA Wanted To Put Monty Brown Into The Hall Of Fame, They Had A Hard Time Getting Ahold Of Him

www.fightful.com

>“I know there was a big push from a lot of the boys, and I’m down with this too, Monty Brown was someone that was up for consideration but it seemed like they were having a hard time getting ahold of Monty Brown, he’s off the grid it seems like. He would’ve been a really killer candidate too considering it was in Detroit.”

Scott D'Amore Originally Had A No-Compete Clause Through January 2025, Was Able To Work Things Out With TNA

www.fightful.com

>"I can give you an exclusive. I had a no-compete through January of next year, and I worked it out with TNA on friendly terms. That’s officially over. The Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling stuff started while my no-compete was in place, but as we had discussions, we worked it out and I’m in a good spot where I get all the upsides, for the most part, that were there with the no-compete, and I’m free to move on and do what I want. A clean break is a good break and I’m happy to still be able to feature TNA talent on these shows along with people from AEW and New Japan and Tokyo Joshi Pro. We have a great roster on camera and behind the scenes. I’m super excited."

Scott D'Amore On Booking TNA Talent For Maple Leaf Pro: I Don’t See A Downside To Talent Appearing On This Platform

www.fightful.com

While speaking to Fightful for a new interview, D'Amore talked about booking TNA talent on the shows and how he was able to work things out with TNA. >"I talked about it with the talent, which is often the first step. We talked through a lot of stuff with talent and eventually it came to we had to deal with it company to company, which we did. Gratefully, we were able to work it out and have the talent appear. It’s good for their talent as well. We have a great mix of talent for a lot of different companies, and I don’t see a downside to talent appearing on this platform. If I were still sitting in the chair as the President of TNA Wrestling, this is the type of event, similar to when we would send people to a New Japan event, it’s an event that has some prestige and buzz, so why not have your talent front and center on that?"
