Multiple industry insiders are reporting that Brian “Road
Dogg” James has not officially signed with TNA Wrestling yet
and the WWE Hall of Famer was not present at this week’s
television tapings.
James is expected to take over the role that Tommy Dreamer
had in TNA and was at the Slammiversary pay-per-view, but
with no deal reached between the two parties, Road Dogg
stayed off the road.
Road Dogg recently left WWE after nearly four years, first
as Vice President of Live Events and later running creative
for Smackdown. He departed the company in May of this year
after Smackdown was getting panned by fans for its creative
direction. The show did not necessarily improve since his
departure, but it was James who ended up leaving.
After Tommy Dreamer exited TNA last month, James’ name
quickly popped up as a most-likely replacement.
