TNA News: New LAX Member, Senshi Problems

[hbk]

A new member is expected be added to the Latin American Exchange. Puerto Rican wrestler Ricky Banderas is expected to join LAX. Banderas was the original choice for the group, not Hernandez. However, due to politics in Puerto Rico involving Dutch Mantel (who was aligned in a war with WWC), and Banderas being under contract to IWA, that kept him from joining the group a few months ago.

Problems between TNA management and Senshi seemed to have soothed over in the past two weeks. He hasn't signed a new contract with TNA, but he seems receptive to it. Should Senshi sign a new contract with TNA, that would leave Monty Brown as the only major star whose contract is coming up shortly.

There has been some talk amongst wrestlers that TNA might begin house show touring during the week of the Bound For Glory PPV in October.

Ricky Banderas is one of the top stars in the IWA in Puerto Rico and he will probably have some good matches in TNA. I think Homicide and Low Ki should be a tag team or Homicide should wrestle for the X Division title. If anyone has seen some of Homicide's matches in Ring of Honor they know that Homicide can be more then just a member of LAX. I think that if TNA were going to use Homicide to his full potential they would have Low Ki/Homicide v.s. Styles/Daniels for the tag team titles or Low Ki v.s. Homicide for the X Division title but it seems like TNA would rather have old WCW stars wrestle on PPV then have the stars of the future main event a PPV.

Homicide is an amazing wrestler and does deserve a bigger push but then again we all have to start somewhere

LAX won the NWA Tag Team titles at the Impact tapings.
