3 TNA Champions Set to Depart Next

It has been strange times at TNA Impact and it appears that the layoffs and departures are just getting started. With Tommy Dreamer announcing his departure from TNA, a day after Tessa Blanchard requested and was granted her release, only weeks following the exits of Steve Maclin, Myla Grace and Dani Luna, the promotion was dealt another blow as Sami Callihan is also done with TNA and Impact Wrestling.

Now, while Sami Callihan was God awful anyway and Tommy Dreamers best attribute was crying on key, the loss of Tessa Blanchard is a big one.  Their Knockout division is terrible and Blanchard could have realistically been someone who could have serious five star matches, but alas, she is gone from the promotion.

Is Mike Santana next when his contract is up later this summer?  Sure seems that way….

Leon Slater is also on record saying he will be bolting for AEW soon as well.

With Mickie James set to join Nick Aldis on Smackdown sooner then later, it is only a matter of time before these 3 former and or current champions depart next.

  1. On behalf of our residents and businesses owners, I apologize for taking advantage for so many years. We don’t even support our own, we’re not going to support anyone else.
