Wednesday night, TNA began what may be its last set of “Impact Wrestling” tapings for the foreseeable future in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. While complete spoilers are not in as of this moment, two relatively major moments are confirmed as to having gone down.
First, the tapings saw the TNA debut of former WWE Superstar and current independent circuit wrestler George Murdoch. Murdoch is best known from WWE as “The Funkasaurus” Brodus Clay. Though complete details are not known at this time, Clay debuted on the show on behalf of fellow former WWE Superstar, Ethan Carter III. Both men notably appeared on the “NXT” program together while members of the company.

Alongside, TNA Knockouts Champion Gail Kim lost her title to the recently-debuted Havok. The title is the first for the 28-year-old masked Knockout.
These tapings will air leading up to the “Bound For Glory” pay-per-view in Japan next month.
Editor’s Note
Some interesting things coming out of TNA here. Havok is solid…not sure how much Clay will do. Hopefully he is booked as the monster he should be and not goofy.
