Posted February 13, 200619 yr comment_4498467 From SmarksChoice: It is being reported that Shane Douglas has been checked into rehab for an addiction to painkillers by his wife. That's why he wasn't on Impact. It looks like TNA may replace him with Jeremy Borash and bring in Dave Penzer to do ring announcing. I understand they're pissed with Terry Taylor because he wanted to work that MTV show.
February 13, 200619 yr comment_4501443 I'm surprised this didn't happen earlier given all the injuries Shane has worked through since 1997.
February 13, 200619 yr comment_4501639 Meltzer recently reported that the wrestlers had to sneak someone out of a restaurant where Dixie Carter was because he was completely strung out. Do you think this is a case of putting two and two together?
February 13, 200619 yr comment_4501720 Sucks, hope everything works out for him. I loved his interviewer role in TNA, just watch the guy's facial expressions when he's not talking and how he reacts to things. In that respect he's a real pro. Borash sucks balls. He'll make a crap interviewer, just like he's been crap at everything else he's ever done in wrestling.
February 13, 200619 yr comment_4502844 I really like Dave Penzer, so that's good news. More Borash though is pretty much the opposite of that. Hope Douglas comes back.
February 13, 200619 yr Author comment_4502978 Dave Penzer gives TNA a more major league feel, at least to people who remember WCW. Borash always struck me as bush league.
February 13, 200619 yr comment_4503270 Whatever happened to Bob Artiest? Who did the announcing for ECW.
