-- TNA Wrestling officials were understanding of the travel issues that prevented Generation Me from making their scheduled appearance at last week's Against All Odds pay-per-view. However, they were not pleased with the duo relaying their predicament on Twitter. Management feel Max and Jeremy should have allowed them to come up with a replacement plan and announce it at once rather than sharing details of their travel problems online.

The next day, Max took a shot at Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson while watching his WWE return, writing on Twitter: "The Rock would not pass a wellness policy test." The comment was later deleted.
I can see both sides of the coin really, but if they do have heat on them then I think it's pretty harsh.

-- "The Pope" D'Angelo Dinero has heat with wrestlers in the locker room because they feel he's not making an effort be an effective heel. They think he tries to portray himself as a babyface or "cool heel" in his promos.
The guy be a straight up heel and he would still get cheers from sections of the Impact Zone, because well, it's the Impact Zone.

WrestleZone said:
Although it started out as an Internet rumor, there appears to be some legitimate heat on TNA Knockout Mickie James after she raved on Twitter about The Rock's return to "Monday Night Raw."

Mickie tweeted, "Finally getting a chance to catch up on @TheRock's charismatic return... Literally got chills... & remembered why I do... What I do!"

The Rock aka Dwayne Johnson responded, "Thank u MJ..we're blessed to be able to perform..keep kickin ass and being diverse in your career...I dig your music... I always admire diversity..takes guts..especially in country..if u sing jamey johnson for me I'll come get that tooth..

"

While TNA President Dixie Carter is said not to be offended by the tweet, a lot of TNA locker room members felt Mickie, a long time WWE Womens Champion, should be promoting TNA on Twitter, and not glowing about WWE's latest angle.

"We're having a hard enough time keeping anyone's attention during Wrestlemania season," one prominent TNA wrestler told WrestleZone over the weekend, "we have Kurt Angle's entire personal life, including his relationship with his children, playing out on TV to get a .1 boost in the numbers. Mickie should be a locker room leader, and should know better. Instead, she just makes it seem like she's longing to go to back to WWE."

Our source also says TNA management is "obsessed" regarding WWE swiping Kevin Nash and Booker T from right underneath TNA's big "Main Event Mafia Reunion."

The source says things are "as tense as I've ever seen it" in TNA at the moment.
I'm calling bullshit and here's why

-- TNA Knockout Tara put over Trish Stratus' return to WWE on Sunday, writing on Twitter: "I wish I could have watch my girl @trishstratuscom tonight. I'm sure she stole the show."

Stratus wrote in response, "Well... It was no Chicago street fight- now that was stealing the show!"

-- Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's return to WWE garnered a rave review from Tommy Dreamer. He wrote yesterday on Twitter: "I just saw the Rock's return & the 2/21/11 video. AMAZING. If anyone wants 2 know why wrestling is the best. Watch that. Gave me goosebumps!"
Just two recent examples of TNA talent "promoting" WWE talent. This is also the same TNA who uses the WWE name whenever it can, not to mention didn't Dixie also take to her twitter account and praise HBK on the night he retired and destroyed TNA's ratings?

These dirtsheets really need to up their game.

Really? The reasons TNA comes up with for heat if these reports are in fact true, which I have my doubts about, are fuckin ridiculous.

Makes no sense considering how much they try to mention WWE as much as possible on the show let alone on twitter.

As for Pope he is stuck in a baseless feud with a crowd that will cheer anything. He's not in a good position to get heat.

As if I needed to reaffirm what I already put :rolleyes:

On a related note, TNA aired a 3-3-11 video at tonight's tapings, taking a jab at WWE and The Undertaker.
