Vince Russo and Kurt Angle have been spending a lot of time together
because Angle is being given control over his own character. Angle
has also been very interested in what's going on with other people's
storylines, and most backstage in TNA enjoy getting suggestions and
feedback from him.
Although there aren't many details yet, TNA is looking to make
Chicago their next major PPV market.
Konnan's hip is in really bad shape right now. He has tried
everything possible to avoid hip replacement surgery, but nothing
has worked out. He's said to barely even be able to take a few steps
without being clearly in incredible pain. The feeling is that if he
doesn't get the surgery soon he may need a wheelchair, and one
source says that he was almost in need of one at the last show.
Several backstage are saying that Konnan is more intense and
passionate than he has been in years with the LAX storyline, and
would love to be able to wrestle right now.
