It was recently reported that TNA made an offer to Moose and he’s expected to make his decision soon. It’s worth noting that NOVA Pro Wrestling has announced Moose will no longer be appearing at their event on August 12th due to a “contractual obligation” which could be an indication that he has signed a deal with TNA or another wrestling promotion.
JBL posted his a lengthy statement containing his thoughts on all the recent shootings on his Facebook page. You can check it out here along with an excerpt below.
The shootings in Dallas were despicable. Any killing of innocent people is despicable. My college room mate just retired from the Texas DPS after a distinguished career, he’s one of the finest men I know-he could have been killed because of an idiot with a gun, who claims to have a cause. For what, why could he have been killed? Because he is white, a police officer?-he is one of most unbiased kind people in the world who just wants to watch his son play baseball-these are the lives that are impacted or could be impacted. It’s time we think about what is going on, and stop it.
