Christopher Daniels has been released by TNA, wrestlingobserver.com confirmed. Daniels appeared on Ring of Honor's Big Bang Internet pay-per-view Saturday night and will now be a regular there.
It was obvious that the Hulk Hogan-Eric Bischoff regime had no role for Daniels. He went from wrestling for the TNA world title in the main event on pay-per-view before Hogan and Bischoff took over to jobbing to Sean Morley (formerly Val Venis) and doing a one-minute job to Kurt Angle.
Daniels had been with TNA since its inception in 2002 and was a favorite of the company's hardcore fans. I though he did some of the best work of his career on the microphone and in the ring during his title program with Styles at the end of 2009.
TNA's loss is definitely ROH's gain. Daniels will help to offset the void in ROH created by the departure of Nigel McGuinness (Desmond Wolfe) and Bryan Danielson (Daniel Bryan) last fall
