Why Claire Lynch Is Leaving TNA

We reported several days ago that the current Claire Lynch/AJ Styles story line is expected to conclude on Impact Wrestling this week, as a paternity test segment is set for the show.

According to F4WOnline.com, Lynch’s departure from the company stems from the character’s real identity surfacing online. As we previously reported, Lynch is played by Julia Reilly, an Orlando based actress who also plays the Olive Oyl character in the Popeye ride at Universal Studios.
