TNA star Austin Aries recently talked to Philly.com to hype his appearance at the upcoming House of Hardcore event, and the following are some interview highlights:

On Samoa Joe’s TNA departure:

“That’s part of the business, man. People come, people go and at the end of the day, everybody has to do what’s right for them and their family and their situation. I’ve known Joe a long time and the guy is supremely intelligent, supremely talented so I’m sure the decision he made will work out because guys like that always seem to land on their feet.”

If he had any idea that Joe could possibly be on his way out:

“Hey, man. It could possibly happen with any of us at any time. As far as guys contracts and their deals, I don’t try to stick my nose in too much. Obviously, we all kind of have an idea of what’s going on behind the scenes, but I always feel those things are best kept behind the scenes and not out there for general consumption unless that person decides to put it out there.”

What the atmosphere is like in TNA in general:

“Things are good. I think there’s a lot of excitement with our switch over to Destination America. The feeling is that we’re with a station now that is behind us 100 percent. They know that as the TNA brand grows so does their station. They’re relatively new as far as networks go. I think there’s just a lot of excitement and optimism and we’re going to take things as they come, put ourselves in a position to be successful and know that things don’t happen overnight. As long as we’re continuing to make those incremental movements forward, things should be good.

How come? You hardly ever hear about any backstage drama happening in TNA. Most of the wrestlers seem to get along with each other. I think it was EC3 said the same thing. He said it doesn't feel like someone's scheming against you or about to stab you in the back 24/7 as it did with WWE.
Or you could be right and the TNA personnel just know how to keep their drama behind closed doors. Which would somewhat be believable since it's the #2 company so majority of wrestling paparazzi are seeking shit that goes down in WWE behind closed doors.

This is the last news about his status...

In an update on Austin Aries’ status with TNA Wrestling, Aries took to his Twitter account to refute reports on certain websites that he had parted ways with the company.

Aries announced that he will be working the company’s IMPACT Wrestling tapings on January 7th, January 8th and January 9th for the Destination America debut, which would indicate that he has signed a new deal with the company.

Where's the confusing part?
