WWE/TNA: The Real Reason TNA’s Plane Did Not Fly At WrestleMania

Over the weekend the story broke that TNA Wrestling was planning on flying a plane over the Citrus Bowl during WrestleMania to promote TNA iMPACT! The stunt never happened and word has come out that it was World Wrestling Entertaiment that prevented it from happening.

WWE officials reportedly heard the news, tracked down the company TNA hired to fly the plane and somehow convinced them not to take off. The company in question is said to have told TNA they couldn’t take off due to the weather. Of course, several other planes promoted businesses overhead during Mania, including a local realtor and a "gentleman’s club". TNA management was said to be very angry over the foiled plan.

Last night at the Amway Arena (the site of WWE RAW), TNA Wrestling had a truck with large TV screens showing TNA footage. WWE had them thrown out – the driver was given a refund of his parking fee and was ejected from the parking lot.
