-Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff were not at the TNA Impact taping in Orlando, Fla. on Monday. As previously noted, Hogan had a book signing in St. Louis on Monday night.

-Kevin Nash was not at the Impact tapings on Monday. He was serving a suspension that was handed down by management after he broke from the script and delivered shoot comments over the mic about the way Chris Sabin's injury was handled at the last taping.

Powell's POV: There's still no indication regarding when Hogan and Bischoff will make their first appearances at the Impact Zone. I've heard speculation that TNA might film something with Hogan outside the Impact Zone so that it's a surprise when it appears on the show, but I've yet to speak with anyone who knows (or is willing to acknowledge) whether that's the case.

I've heard from numerous people within TNA who feel that Dixie Carter made the right call in suspending Nash for the show. The belief is that while his message that the safety of the wrestlers should be the highest priority, he took it too far by breaking from the script and making that statement during an in-ring promo that was edited off last week's show.
