As noted earlier on the site, it was reported by Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer that former TNA Knockouts Champions Taryn Terrell and Awesome Kong will be finishing up with TNA following tonight’s Slammiversary pay-per-view event.
Bob Ryder of TNA tweeted the following to Meltzer to shoot down the report:
.@davemeltzerWON The story on your site is totally wrong and an example of irresponsible reporting. An apology and correction should follow.
— Bob Ryder (@brydertna) June 28, 2015
Then Meltzer wrote the following on the Wrestling Observer:
Bob Ryder of TNA on Twitter stated that Awesome Kong and Taryn Terrell are still under contract, until December and March, contrary to what was reported her earlier today.
We noted earlier on the site that the reason that they are leaving is because their contracts are expiring and TNA did not offer them a new contract.
It should be noted that Ryder was getting a ton of heat from fans for tweeting that to Meltzer and not addressing some of the issues that TNA has reportedly been dealing with lately with talents contracts.
