Dot Net Exclusive Notes: Awesome Kong incident, Payton Banks, Angle family correction
Apr 18, 2008 - 11:17 AM |
|
-There was an incident involving Awesome Kong on Saturday night in Lowell, Mass. Paramedics were called and police arrived on the scene due to what sources describe as issues relating to a "personal problem." She was taken to a hospital and released a short time later, and managed to appear on the TNA pay-per-view as scheduled. TNA management was initially concerned and later upset about the incident, but she was said to be embarrassed and very apologetic the next day.
-It appears Payton Banks is done for the time being. "She was in over her head," one source stated. However, the same source said the company hasn't ruled out the possibility of bringing her back in the future.
-Eric Angle was not backstage at the pay-per-view or at the bar, as previous reported. Observers mistook Frank Trigg for one of Angle's family members.
Powell's POV: The word on Kong is that she's coping with the loss of a close family member. As one source said, "We've all been there at one time or another." As for Banks (a/k/a Bonnie Maxon), she is working on a nightly deal with TNA and had been working indy dates. She wrestles as "Rain" primarily in the Midwest.
