Lots of TNA/Wrestlemania stories coming out of Orlando, as if it there was a big "wrestling war" going on, which is absurd. Talents were asked not to fraternize, which I think in hindsight was much to do about not much.TNA apparently showing Robbie McAllister at the TNA TV show on Thursday night was not a classy thing to do, as McAllister was sent home as a result of it and his status is unknown to me at this time. Two wrongs do not make a right, McAllister should never have gone to the show and TNA should never have put another wrestler’s job in jeopardy. Not real smart on either’s part, in my view.

he could've been there with kids...But still I wouldn't have gone. If watching TNA is boring on tv, what makes you think it's any better in person

I think wrestlers lives outside of the business is none of WWE's business. If you worked at a supermarket and your boss said you weren't allowed to visit Wal*Mart, Toys R Us, etc. would you listen to them?

If that supermarket was paying me a WWE sized-paycheck and was putting me on TV for millions of people around the world to watch and get some level of enjoyment out of it, than yeah... I'd be saying, "what's a Wal-Mart?"

And still you don't go to the competition and be seen on Live TV, that's like Ronald Macdonald appearing in a Jack in the Box commercial.

WWE is basically the "Wal*Mart" of pro-wrestling while TNA is like the "K-Mart"/Smaller Stores" of pro-wrestling. Wal*Mart works can still go shop at K-Mart when they aren't working why can't wrestlers? They are people not soilders. There was no problem with Robbie going to see Devines match like the reports say.. but why not just go backstage and hang out with him and watch it from the back? Seriously, both Robbie and TNA screwed up in this situation.

If TNA can say WWE on their show then what'sthe problem with them showing their wrestlers. If wwe isnt worried about TNA then what does it matter. MCallister is agrown man and the full blame should be on him not TNA. If we're gonna get technical then WWE needs to quit saying impact

Nah think about it guys. If you were say Ken Kennedy and you were friends with AJ Styles and your boss tried to tell you not to mix with your friends would you obey,not obey or tell them to off knowing you could get a job where your friend works, with less working hours?

But it's one thing to go & see a mate backstage, another to sit in the audience of a Live TV show when you work for the competitor. Being shown in the audience was a stupid thing to do, he knew as soon as he appeared on the big screen that he'd screwed up.

Dumb of him to go, childish of tna to show him. There underhand tactics of showing up the wwe is pointless, better beating them on screen, with good quality entertainment than try advertise their show on the side of a plane. whilst the wwe hav a ppv

Tna are idiots and Robert Mcallister should be able to do anything legal he wants to do in his free time, if he signed a contract saying i will not do certain things in his free time and going to TNA shows to be a spectator was one, then yeah he was in the wrong but this should just be floored at TNAs door. But unless he signed something the worst wwe can do is burial which would just waste time, he could claim against wrongly dismissal if they canned him and he didn't do anything wrong against his contract .

I still don't get it. There were rumors other people were there backstage, so why wasn't he?
Also... it's not like he was on the front row wearing a TNA shirt cheering for Kurt Angle. Why TNA would think it would matter to highlight him in the crowd amongst other actually somewhat known sports figures is beyond me. It's Robbie from the Highlanders looking way less Scottish than he does on Heat... who cares?

All I know is that is WWE fires him, TNA owes it to him to sign him and put him in the main event picture.

McAllister has a every right to go where he please but WWE has every right to do what they want with him and his contract.........I would have worn a WWE shirt and the second I got caught on camera I would have acted like I was "invading" the show.

I am pretty sure he was trying to be low key and not be noticed. And having a WWE shirt would only make him stand out more.
