Major Potential Spoiler On TNA's "Huge Announcement"

TNA's huge announcement is...
As reported earlier, TNA is set to make an announcement at the No Surrender PPV that they claim will re-write wrestling history.
It appears that announcement will be the return of Vince Russo who has been hired by TNA in a panic move due to the recent decline in Impact ratings. The move is a surprise since WWE and UFC ratings are also down, not just TNA. The booking team will now be Russo, Jeff Jarrett, and Dutch Mantel. Mike Tenay and Scott D'Amore have been removed from the team.
Interestingly enough, TNA has told Russo that he can't book any sleaze on TNA shows.
Wrestlers will be told about Russo's hiring this weekend.
Russo was the main WWE writer back in the glory days of the Attitude Era, coming up with much of the "Crash TV" aspect of WWE programming back then. Since then, he had a stint in WCW that was a failure and even worked for TNA early in the promotion's life.
