Saturday night it was announced that Bobby Roode and Eric Young have parted ways with TNA wrestling after they requested to be released from their contracts earlier in the week. Roode and Young were top stars with TNA and both of them are former TNA World Champions.
It’s been 12 years since Bobby Roode and Eric Young first started working with TNA and now they’re free agents. They’ve both made a career changing move, and shortly after word got out about their departures both guys took to Twitter to thank everyone for their support. You can see what they had to say below.
