The Wrestling Observer and Pro Wrestling Torch are reporting that both Konnan and Ron Killings quit TNA before tonight’s Impact tapings.
Konnan had been upset for a number of months because TNA wasn’t giving him much financial support for his health problems. He pretty much stayed with the company as long as he did because LAX was a hot act and he didn’t want bail on them. There were some rumblings going into Sunday’s PPV that Konnan was going to quit the company sooner or later. That may have been the reason for LAX jobbing and not being featured much on the fifth anniversary pay-per-view. Ron Killings, who is friends with Konnan, has been unhappy for quite some time with his pay and status in the company. He has been out of action with an injury for several months.
Konnan will just return to Mexico to work for the AAA promotion. Killings also has a deal lined up with AAA, so he’ll resume his wrestling career there. Their friend Sean Waltman is also a regular for AAA. Both he and his girlfriend Alicia ‘Ryan Shamrock’ Webb recently moved down to Mexico.
