4. Magnus Says TNA Were Hurt By Talent Attitude

The most recent talent to depart TNA, UK star Magnus thanked the organisation via social media, as well as the fans for their support over the years. Making his debut in the company back in 2009, Magnus grew from an incredibly limited performer into a deserved World Title contender, but it's difficult to envision where he will end up next. WWE is of course a possible destination, but it remains to be seen whether or not the promotion would be interested in signing him. Magnus has a good look, and is a solid worker, but is there really any space for him on the roster at the moment? ROH and Japan offer alternatives, as well as the independent scene in the UK, where the man would surely be able to command larger-than-average appearances fees. Upon leaving TNA, Magnus said this week that it felt like a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders, but also had interesting words to say about the promotion's signing policy. Waxing lyrical about the fact that many talents entered the company willing to work for less than others, Magnus says this has hurt TNA's standing in the wrestling world, making them seem a little smaller than they are.
