Destination America have cancelled TNA iMPACT. The call was made a few days before the move to Wednesdays was announced. Why?

The Mega-Maniacs explode! Beefer outed selling signed Hogan pics. I never cover current Hogan antics (since he’s always working the internet to keep himself relevant) but this was too hilarious.
