Josh Alexander talks TNA contract, rebrand

We at Real Rasslin can confirm that

Josh Alexander will remain with TNA for at least the next year, and spoke with Sean Ross Sapp and Fightful about it. 

Alexander confirmed Fightful's report that he was hopeful he could explore his contractual possibilities and asked Anthem to pass on the option to do that. However, Anthem had decided to exercise that option by that point, and Alexander said he signed the contract two years ago and he knew what he was doing and that it was a possibility.

He has no issues with Anthem exercising that right, as it was in the contract, and the ball was in their court. He says that he's happy in TNA. He said that they've discussed other contract options and it's possible that he negotiates another long-term extension before he hits free agency next February.

He also confirmed that no injury time was added to his deal as a result of him working as a producer. He started immediately after giving up the title due to injury, and it's something that he wants to do when his career is over, so wanted to learn how to do it while he had the time to do so. 

Alexander had to sign an NDA when filming for the TNA rebrand. He actually had to postpone getting his Japan visa for NJPW bookings, but happily did so when he found out what it was for. He's very happy that TNA is back. 

We spoke about his wife Jade Chung taking over as TNA ring announcer. He said that she was nervous and hated the sound of her own voice, but he knew she was going to do well. He said that she takes it very seriously and has been studying other great ring announcers.
