Kazarian Comments On TNA Departure; Shane Update



The following statement was issued by Frankie Kazarian over at his official website located at www.thefuturefrankiekazarian.com in regards to his recent departure from TNA earlier this week:

“OK. Here it goes. The fact of the matter is that I am in fact no longer with TNA wrestling. I had been wrestling without a contract since last year, and I made the decision to end my partnership with the company, and pursue other opportunities in the world of professional wrestling. I cannot stress enough that this was MY decision, and no ones fault. Sometimes we reach points in our personal and professional lives that we must make decisions that hurt a great deal, and this has been one of them.

I want to thank everyone involved in TNA. From day one I was always treated with respect and class. I have had the most fun in my career these past Two years with TNA. I want to also thank Dixie Carter, a truly classy woman, and someone I consider a good friend and an even better person. Jerry and Jeff Jarrett gave me a platform to do what it is I love on a national level, and for that, I will be forever grateful. I thank them for having the confidence in me to represent their company as a champion on Two different occasion. Everyone in the office, Bob Ryder, Tim Welch, Bill Banks, Scott Hudson, Jeremy Borash, the amazing announcing duo of Mike Tenay and Don West, I consider terrific people, and very good friends. Dave Sahadi in production, an old pal of mine, is one of the most talented people I have met, and I will miss you a lot. The agents, Jerry Lynn, Terry Taylor, Scott D’amore, Shane Douglas, and Dutch Mantel are the most knowledgeable , and helpful people I have been around in wrestling, and what I have learned from all of them has be invaluable. I thank them all and will miss them a great deal.

All of the boys, and girls in the locker room. What can I say? You are ALL my family, and I love each an every one of you from the bottom of my heart. You are such an incredibly talented group of professionals, and have given me memories I will cherish for the rest of my life. You are not co-workers, you are all my friends. I thank you for all the matches, the good times and the bad. We are all in this together, living out the same dream we all had as young children. It really is an honor for me to say I got to be in a company with you all. I am a better person for knowing all of you. The friendships I have forged in TNA mean more to me then anything. It is with a heavy heart, that I say goodbye.

I cannot thank you, the fans enough for your outpouring of support. I thank each and every one of you. This has been overwhelming to me, and the last 36 hours have been difficult. I ask that you all please continue to support TNA wrestling, and all of Pro wrestling in general. You are the reason we as professional wrestlers are here. Thank you, thank you, thank you, and God bless.

Frankie Kazarian”

TNA star Michael Shane recently commented on the departure of Frankie Kazarian from TNA this past week on his official website www.Michael-Shane.com. Here is a tidbit of what Shane had to say on the matter:

“One of the biggest loses to the TNA locker room in my opinion is the loss of Frankie and the end to our tag team. Some of my best times in TNA has always been tagging with him and he will truly be missed by both me and the whole locker room. Now what is going to happen with me? Now I can tell you that, that was one of Frankie’s biggest concerns. But as I told him, that fate is not going to lie in his hands or anybody else’s. The only one who can determine what happens to me is me. So to Frankie don’t worry about me, I will get the job done, just as well as I know you will in wherever you end up. Somewhere down the road we will meet again!!!”
