Billy Corgan Formally Requests Repayment from TNA, More Twitter Comments

As previously reported, Billy Corgan had words with Anthem Sports via Twitter Thursday afternoon, following the public announcement that Corgan is no longer affiliated with TNA, and Anthem will be taking over in a credit-based relationship with Dixie Carter. Carter will remain chairwoman of the promotion, whereas Anthem’s Ed Nordholm will essentially be running things. While Corgan is out, he’s still owed money by TNA and his lawsuit is still open.

Corgan fired back Twitter again today and doesn’t seem to be holding back any longer. He corrected one fan meme and said he’s owed $2.7 million, not the reported $1.8 million. Corgan noted that he formally requested repayment of the loan by TNA today and threatened to take what he’s owed to court and convert it to company stock or sell the options to the highest bidder, teasing a “pro wrestling titan,” which could be a WWE mention. Below are Corgan’s new tweets with what was said yesterday for context:

FACT: TNA was supposed to pay me to 2 days ago, which they swore to in front of a judge. Yesterday they asked for a day to 'get $ together'

Upon which, (yesterday or today) they'd 'reach out directly' to settle ALL claims. So they lied again and have used the time as a weapon

FACT: I have still not been paid, and I'm exploring all remedies including new filings with court and converting to 36 pct. equity

We reject Mr. Corgan's social media comments today re:@IMPACTWRESTLING. The matter is before courts/public discourse is inappropriate. (1/2)

— Fight Network (@fightnet) November 3, 2016

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

@fightnet Terrible way to start our future relationship! What w/ the lying through counsel + propensity for press releases claiming victory

— WPC (@Billy) November 3, 2016

@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!

— WPC (@Billy) November 3, 2016

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

— WPC (@Billy) November 3, 2016

YEP: just-published NY Post article asserts that judge in case ruled against my receiving 2.7 in Anthem swap deal. This is FALSE. Case OPEN

— WPC (@Billy) November 4, 2016

Today, I'm FORMALLY requesting repayment of my 'so-called' loan by TNA, which I'm told stalled because they didn't know where to FIND ME

— WPC (@Billy) November 4, 2016

Laughs aside I'd put up 1.8mil for express purpose of becoming equity stakeholder and helping talented roster. Any other assertion is FALSE

— WPC (@Billy) November 4, 2016

So if I'm not repaid today in full and without conditions attached, I'll be forced to once more pursue remedy by taking TNA stock via court

— WPC (@Billy) November 4, 2016

Remember it was Anthem and not I who stood in open court and told judge they were prepared to PAY and in turn FUND good 'ol, solvent TNA

— WPC (@Billy) November 4, 2016

A company which they claim they have no business deal for behind-the-scenes yet have released 2 press releases saying they are TAKING OVER

— WPC (@Billy) November 4, 2016

So far be it from me to accuse someone I don't know of bending truth to win a case. That just wouldn't be nice, and I believe in being nice

— WPC (@Billy) November 4, 2016

Last thing: despite being called a lender by every arm of TNA propaganda I can still convert to 36pct stock or sell option to highest bidder

— WPC (@Billy) November 4, 2016

And that 'option' if you will to convert my boo-hoo-hoo loan to 36pct stock or auction it off to a PW titan doesn't require a court order
