Chistian Cage had pushing for TNA to bring in Tomko from just about the time he was released from WWE earlier in the year. The original plans called for Cage to win the title in 2006, turn heel on Sting, and then have a match at the December PPV where Sting would get the title if he was staying in TNA, or he'd put Cage over if he was leaving. Of course, plans greatly changed over the course of the year. Anyways, he pushed for Tomko to be by his side when the time would ultimately come for Cage to turn heel.
Homicide was really upset with Kurt Angle popping his ear in the TV match that aired last week. He was so angry that he wanted to fight him right there, but he managed to keep himself under control.
There are legal reasons as to why TNA keeps using the names Paul Levesque and Michael Hickenbottom instead of Triple H and Shawn Michaels. The James Gang has been told that they can use Vince McMahon's name because that is a real name, but not Triple H's nor Shawn Michaels' name because those are trademarked names.
