• TNA Bans Common Moves & Threatens $100 Fines
TNA Wrestling is tightening up its rules backstage, according to a new report from Fightful Select.
Following a new rule for talent to reduce the use of blood during matches, more in-ring guidelines have now been put in place.
A memo from the talent relations department stated that slaps are no longer allowed without agent approval. Additionally, performers have been banned from doing the throat-slashing gesture, with a $100 fine issued for each violation.
Sources told Fightful Select that a backstage meeting took place on Saturday to go over these changes. Leadership also addressed frustration over the memo being leaked to the public—though, ironically, the meeting’s details were leaked as well.
