I didn't either. Especially after the fact that they already DID pay for his hip replacement surgery and that this kidney problem could have been brought on by years of steroid abuse.
I personally feel it would have been a good act for the company to help out a guy how needed a kidney replacement. They obliviously have the money to keep guys like Kevin Nash on the payroll but can't stump up the cash for a guy with kidney trouble. What kind of message does that send out about TNA?
Frankly TNA just come across as a really shitty company to work for. This latest incident with Austin Starr is just another in the long line of them were guys in TNA complain and are totally ignored. Meanwhile, Vince Russo continues to write utter garbage that the fans turn against and they try to deflect blame away from him. Perhaps TNA should be listening to the talent rather than ignoring it.
