Impact Wrestling World Champion Austin Aries participated in a conference call this week and responded to Kurt Angle's "TNA" reference on Raw, when Kurt told Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn that he "heard that TNA is hiring":

“I think every wrestling company is hiring. They’ve obviously done quite a bit of hiring themselves over the last six months. Someone should probably give them a memo and update them that TNA no longer exists, so they’re writing team was a little outdated on their joke. It’s cool man. We are hiring. If you come here we won’t test you, or take money out of your pocket for smoking marijuana. There’s a lot of perks to coming here. It’s all about what you want for your career and out of your life. We’re trying to provide something that’s an alternative.”
