- The following is from Jeremy Borash on Twitter: Sources tell me Sheik Abdul Bashir has signed a new multi-year contract with TNA. Everyone put on your turbans!

There had been some rumors that WWE was interested in bringing back Bashir after his previous TNA contract expired.

- Bobby Lashley recently made his return to The Shoot radio show which airs each and every Thursday night at 8 p.m. on the BlogTalkRadio network. When asked about Kimbo Slice joining the Ultimate Fighter show, "I think one thing is, He's stepped up to the plate. I'll give him at least that much credit." He also went on to say that he thinks one of the ways for Kimbo to win and survive the house is to intimidate the other fighters.

Shortly thereafter the conversation switched to talking about TNA. When asked about how it all came about he said, "When she (Dixie Carter) proposed an offer to me, she basically said she wanted me to continue to fight and she wanted me to do some stuff with her program and she would help promote the fights and help build me and my fight career." He said also said now he's got the best of both worlds, he can do both Wrestling and MMA and not have to worry about his bills. Gary then asked him if a TNA return was in the works for the summer. "How do I say it, do I plead the 5th?" He went on to plug his site (FightBobby.com) and encourage everyone to stay tuned to it for all the latest details.

Gary then asked if he was under a contract with TNA at the current time. "Do I plead the 5th again? I'll say this, I have a contract sitting at the table. Has it been signed yet? No."

- This past week's edition of TNA iMPACT on Spike TV scored a 1.1 cable rating.
