Whatever happened to TNA wrestler Anarquia?
Anarquia (Matt Barela) has reportedly been sent back to Ohio Valley Wrestling by TNA in December. Ohio Valley Wrestling has recently become TNA's new developmental territory according to several reports on various website. It'll be to hopefully improve the guy overall as a wrestler. His gimmick/character was stale. From what TNA showed you of his in ring wrestling ability on television he is a horrible performer. He was only holding Hernandez, Sarita and Rosita all back.

Why wrestlers leave WWE for tna?
Assuming it’s an intentional move, and not just the next best place they can find work after WWE releases them? Usually it comes down to two things. One is the schedule: WWE has an INSANE road schedule, and a lot of guys get really burnt out by all the travel and special appearances on top of actually appearing on the shows themselves. Even before they stopped running house shows and reduced the number of TV tapings over the last few years, TNA’s house show schedule was very, very light, and since many of the wrestlers live in Florida (no state income tax), it was much easier getting to where TNA taped TV at Universal Studios in Orlando than having to drag themselves all over the country.Though this is far less common, some people ask for their release from WWE for creative freedom purposes. There have been people who have not been happy with the way WWE used them, and the paycheck wasn’t enough to keep them happy, so they request their release so they can try to go to TNA (or ROH, or Japan, or wherever) and get the chance to have more of a hand in the creation and development of their own characters.
What ever happened to the wrestler known as "Konan" ?
Konnan is working in AAA wrestling in Mexico. He got cancer while he was still with TNA and instead of supporting him they gave him the boot. So don't let it be said Vince is the only dirty dealer in the business. At least he supports his wrestlers who get sick and injured, doubt me? Ask the Droz.
Why do WWE/TNA wrestlers wear such fancy constumes?
WWE stand for World Wrestling Entertainment. Notice the word Entertainment. It is about wrestling. But it's also about entertainment. If it was about wrestling alone, WWE would have looked like this:It's a great sport. But is it as widely viewed or routinely telecasted like the WWE? You need the element of WOW. The 'Wow Factor' there. Something that attrracts the audienced and keeps them glued. Despite WWE being about wrestling, the wreslters do a lot of dangerous high flying mvoes as well. Why?Can't they just stick to mat wrestling? The answer is to make it more entertaining to the viewers. Plus, Taker looks much better and imposing this way don't he???
Soo is TNA Wrestling Scripted?
Yes, it is scripted, but from most accounts, Bischoff runs a sloppy ship. In TNA you have all the big egos that ran the show a decade ago, and some two or three decades ago. These are guys who like to have things like "creative control over the character" and all sorts of other little loop holes in their contracts. That is what began to damage WWF, eventually crumbled WCW, and what Vince no longer tolerates, if he can help it. Hogan, for example, used the control of his character clause to make sure he kept winning, even when the managment would have prefered to put other guys over by beating him. He asserted that winning was part of his character, and having certain characters able to beat him would go against the creative base of his character, which he had full control of. Therefore, if Hogan was threatened by your possible success, he would not allow you to beat the Hulkster. Lots of wrestlers followed suit, and many of them are now filling the ranks of TNA. Bischoff tends to run a show that is friendly to this sort of politics, while Vince tries to keep control in the hands of the managment. So yes, TNA is scripted, but if certain top guys want to do something, they will probably be able to without much trouble. Of course this occasionally happens on WWE as well, but Vince and the management tolerate it much less than the TNA people have a reputation for.
