NWA Ohio's Dave Nelson posted on his website today that his group has pulled out of talks with TNA about buying the company. According to Nelson, TNA has "lost" their TV deal with WGN and that the deal being discussed with Spike TV would not benefit the company overall.

Nelson added that he will be starting his own new wrestling company this fall.

The feeling inside TNA is that nobody ever really took Nelson seriously, especially when he started posting negotiation updates on his website.

It also appears that TNA is still in talks with WGN about a TV deal, although it is taking longer than expected to iron out. Word is that the deal has a lot of negatives for TNA but that the promotion is hoping to finalize it next week anyway.
