I mean he signed the contract, but forcing someone to stay with an option doesn't usually work out for a team in real sports. I'm hoping it's just a bad idea of a shoot storyline that TNA is running and not Anthem being petty to the wrestlers they had already pissed the fuck off. I'm guessing it's just pure petty though.

I just posted another thread: seems to be the petty lol

@JelloBrains @GeekFTW to be honest, I can see why TNA want to keep him if they can. I kind of don't blame them. But from a talent management standpoint it's not a good indicator of how he feels about the state of things. It arguably looks worse if they let Josh leave because it sets a precedent that Anthem will let you leave. But you can't treat people like assets on a spreadsheet.

Real solution is rehiring Scott D'Amore.
