Big Update: TNA Reportedly Wants Alberto Del Rio for Impact on Wednesday, Big Money Offers to Del Rio from TNA & Bellator

January 5, 2015

According to F4WOnline.com, TNA wants to secure Alberto Del Rio for an appearance on Wednesday’s live Impact Wrestling debut on Destination America.

TNA reportedly wants Impact to debut with a fresh look, and the company feels a Del Rio appearance would be a great way to present a re-boot of the product to the fans.

If TNA does get Del Rio for an appearance on Wednesday, it would have to be a non-exclusive deal, as Del Rio is already signed to appear on ROH TV through March of this year.

Furthermore, it’s being said big money deals are being offered to Del Rio from Bellator and Lucha Underground, in addition to TNA. As of this writing, Del Rio has yet to make a decision regarding the MMA offer.

With regards to Del Rio fighting, he can certainly make big money if he accepts an offer from Bellator, however at 38 years old, and given he hasn’t competed in many years, it seems more likely Del Rio will stick to pro wrestling.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.
