According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, IMPACT staff was informed on Friday that Dreamer would not be present at this weekend’s television tapings in Nashville. PWInsider.com later confirmed that Dreamer had been suspended indefinitely by IMPACT Wrestling due to his comments on Dark Side Of The Ring and he was asked to leave Nashville “effectively immediately.”
“The Plane Ride from Hell” aired on Vice TV on Thursday night, and the episode saw Tommy Dreamer share some controversial responses to claims regarding the actions of Ric Flair on the infamous flight in 2002. Among the allegations made, Heidi Doyle, one of the flight attendants on the plane, claimed Flair assaulted her by forcing her to grab his penis in the galley area of the plane after he’d disrobed and exposed himself.
