Impact Wrestling fucking up (again, but really when aren't they?)

Dave Meltzer noted in The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that some Impact Wrestling talent are upset about the company paying them six weeks after an appearance, which includes indie dates booked by the company. Because Impact is booking them for their independent dates, they are forced to drop their bookings where they're paid the night of the appearance and are instead paid six weeks later.

(SIX WEEKS!? They can't do better than that? Anyone with the I.Q. higher than a door knob I'm sure can get it done in a more simpler way. More proof that Anthem Sports maybe shouldn't have gotten into the wrestling business in the first place).

There was a media call today with new Impact World Champion Austin Aries. During the teleconference, Aries confirmed that he is not under a long-term contract with Impact Wrestling. He said that his deal is for a certain number of dates, and that there "aren't really any restrictions" regarding working for other companies. He said that he hopes that the relationship is beneficial so that continue to work together for years to come, but it's important for him to be able to be flexible with his schedule. He referred to his relationship with Impact as a partnership.
