UPDATE ON TNA'S INDIA TV PROJECT

TNA will be taking a troupe of wrestlers over to India to tape the first footage for their planned debut on the Colors Network there. The wrestlers have been booked for seven days, including travel days, the week of 12/15.

I haven't confirmed names but was told it will be a mixture of known names and some independent wrestlers. Many of the performers will have new, original names and characters so there aren't any trademark or copyright issues.

As noted previously, the project will not be utilizing the TNA logo or name. Jeff Jarrett, Dutch Mantel, Rudy Charles and Dave Lagana have been working on the project. I've also confirmed Savio Vega has been signed to work as an agent.

I'll have more details as we confirm them.
