Much respect to the locker room at @IMPACTWRESTLING, very talented crew. You all deserve so much more. Even you @RobbieEImpact 😁👍🏻

Though he is not the only backstage personality who has left TNA. Pwinsider is reporting that along with Gregory, producers Al Snow and Pat Kenney have also said goodbye to the company.
The reason behind their move is said to be financial as Impact Wrestling had seven producers at the same time.
It’s worth noting here that Shane was also working on-screen for Impact as the leader of The Helms Dynasty tag team which consisted Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett and Helms himself.
He has worked for WWE from 2001 to 2010 as well where he won a number of championships including both the Cruiserweight Championship and Tag Team Championship twice.
