The Husband of TNA Wrestling President Dixie Carter, Serg Salinas, who serves as Vice President of TNA Knockout Music Publishing and TNA Merchandising tweeted the following photo of himself on Thursday night holding a Confederate Flag license plate with the text: "DON'T MESS WITH DIXIE," which the official Impact Wrestling Twitter retweeted.

A fan obviously offended by this move and the negative connotations that the flag represents then tweeted Dixie and said "Do you find it acceptable that Serg, an employee of yours, is promoting storylines on the confederate flag?", Carter responded in a direct message with "No way darlin. Wouldn't allow that."

Serg has since removed the tweet.
