Former TNA Star Makes A Statement

Can You Dig It Booker?

By Phil Allely

Recently released TNA referee/wrestler Shane Sewell has made some interesting comments on his departure from the company and takes a few digs at his former opponent Booker T along the way.

On his social networking Facebook page Sewell not only acknowledges that his leaving TNA was amicable and purely due to both sides being unable to come to terms for a new deal, but he also has nothing but good words for legendary referee Earl Hebner and how much his knowledge and experience helped him in his on screen role.

However after saying that TNA has some great people in the company and that it was a pleasure to work with some of the best talent in the business today. Sewell then goes on to take a pop at a certain member of the Main Event Mafia.

He states ‘So what next? I’m heading back to my adopted homeland of Puerto Rico (the WWC). A Place where I don’t need a knock-off belt to be called a legend. A country where my years of blood, sweat and tears have already earned that legends status for me. A place where I can go toe-to-toe with visiting main-eventers, while they are away from the safety of their network TV script-writers and back room politics… Can you dig that?’

During his stint with TNA Sewell primarily worked as a referee/trainer, before jumping in to the ring and wrestling Sheik Abdul Bashir and Booker T in a couple of short-lived storylines, before being quietly let go last week.

We at Sun Sport had heard the door was left open for Sewell to return to TNA, will these comments see it closed permanently, or will they lead to a renewed feud somewhere down the line?
