At the July 20th Impact! tapings in Orlando, FL, a former ECW star returned to TNA and will be in the mix at the upcoming Sacrifice PPV next month. Whether TNA wanted to keep this return a "secret" remains to be seen as they have added this individuals music to the "Roster" section of TNAwrestling.com. On a related note, Rhino's new TNA music has also been added to the section. (Thanks to Mike Siciliano & Lightless for sending word about this)

David Sahadi has added a new "Spirit of Wrestling" column over on TNAwrestling.com this week. In the column, Sahadi recalls his friendship with the late Freddie Blassie during his time with the WWF/WWE.

The following press release was issued by TNA yesterday:
