At a recent independent event, Mr. Anderson revealed that he is no longer a member of the TNA roster. He’s been working for the promotion off and on since 2010. He’s still on the roster page, but so is Austin Aries even after he appeared on NXT. Pwinsider.com confirms that Anderson departed the company prior to the UK tour.

He said: “I don’t work for TNA anymore, so I agree with you. Fuck TNA!”

UPDATE 2: Ken Anderson’s TNA release was reportedly due to a failed drug test. Pro Wrestling Sheet reports that according to multiple sources backstage at the company, Anderson was given a drug test after he appeared to be under the influence during a match with Eric Young at the Bethlehem, Pennsylvania tapings.

The site reports that Anderson looked so bad that the match was cut from the January 19th show that it was supposed to air during. Anderson was forced to take an immediate drug test after the match and sent home.

TNA officials and Anderson have yet to comment, although the sources in the company say management hopes that Anderson gets treatment for his issues.

UPDATE: Pwinsider.com now reports that Anderson was released from his TNA deal for behavior that took place during the Bethlehem, PA tapings.

Oh so Jeff Hardy ruins a pay per view main event while high but great a break to get help. But Anderson gets fired.

TNA probably needed to get rid of him so they don't lose a much money.

To be fair, it would look bad if they fired him for that without offering help. Anderson was literally doing nothing when he got canned.

Why do all the big TNA guys do so many drugs.

It's the only way to deal with being in TNA.

It's sad when stories of drugging come out. Will there ever be a time when sport is free from it?
I highly doubt it excuse the pun lol

UPDATE 3: WZ has more details on Ken Anderson being fired from TNA for a failed drug test. A source in the company indicated that Anderson tested positive for pills that he didn’t have a prescription for.

The source noted that Anderson’s behavior “seemed odd” during the day before the match and that the match itself was cut short due to the fact that Anderson looked bad in there against Eric Young. Young was said to be livid with TNA management afterward and could he heard yelling at officials to do something about the problem.
