Nashville, TN (May 17, 2005) – TNA Entertainment, LCC is pleased to announce today that “Phenomenal” AJ Styles & “Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels have signed long term contracts with the company through 2008.

“We are thrilled to have two of the brightest young stars in professional wrestling committed to our company for the long term,” said Dixie Carter, President TNA Entertainment. “AJ and Christopher have been an important part of TNA’s success from beginning.”

TNA is in the process of signing all of its talent to long term agreements.

I didn't realise that they are trying to get long term contracts from everyone...this is a "Big Company" step for them. I mean really only the "Big Two" ever signed contracts that lasted 5 or so years...once in a while a wrestler would sign on for one other then WCW or WWF but not many.

I would be interested to know what the contracts look like as far as Pay, Working elsewhere, and breeching contracts.
This has been rumoured to have been the goal for a while now.

Of course, most of that came out of talks with AKI/EA over a video game license, so I took it with a grain of salt.

If they're getting serious, it might be really good news. Or too little, too late.
