As noted earlier, Billy Corgan responded via Twitter to today’s news that Anthem Sports & Entertainment was entering a working relationship with Impact Ventures, and Corgan was no longer with TNA Wrestling as President.
Corgan said he was still not paid back for his loans to TNA, and might explore options in how to legally pursue the ongoing matter. Fight Network, who is owned by Anthem, posted the following comments in response to Corgan’s posts, saying he was acting inappropriately:
We reject Mr. Corgan’s social media comments today re:@IMPACTWRESTLING. The matter is before courts/public discourse is inappropriate. (1/2)

There is a solid financial plan for @IMPACTWRESTLING & Mr. Corgan’s loan will be dealt with appropriately. (2/2)

Corgan then fired back at Fight Network and call their actions against him into question, saying the following:
@fightnet Terrible way to start our future relationship! What w/ the lying through counsel + propensity for press releases claiming victory

@fightnet So when you sent out the press release today and one during lawsuit (which is still pending FYI) that’s not public discourse? Tsk!

@fightnet And the use of ‘reject’ in your tweet! Such strong language from network of fights
