Update On Plans For TNA Integration With Anthem Entertainment

February has been a month of great change for TNA Wrestling as Scott D'Amore was fired as TNA President and replaced by longtime Anthem executive Anthony Cicione. The public reason given for the change was to bring about greater integration between TNA and Anthem's Entertainment Group, although it has been reported that D'Amore and Anthem Head Len Asper disagreed on the future of TNA and Anthem rejected D'Amore's attempts to buy the promotion outright.

Part of the plans for greater integration is for TNA talents to be incorporated into other programming on AXS TV. Plans for the integration are underway and PWInsider has reported that Eric Young will host AXS TV's second season of Vinyl Obsession. The series sees "Rockers search for vinyl treasures while reminiscing about their favorite bands and albums."

Frankie Kazarian, Josh Alexander, and Eric Young will also be featured on AXS TV's Top 10 Revealed and The Very Best of the 80s programmes. This is just the first stage of the integration, though, and other talents will pop up in future AXS TV programming.

The aim of the integration is to maximise money for both TNA and Anthem.
