– “The Pope” D’Angelo Dinero is a GFW star no more. The TNA and GFW mainstay announced on Instagram that he is leaving the company, as you can see below.

Dinero, who worked in WWE as Elijah Burke, joined TNA in 2009 and worked for the company through 2013, after which he left and went to Ohio Valley Wrestling. He re-signed with TNA in 2015 as a color commentator under the name of “Da Pope.” He has worked a few matches since, most recently on the April 5th episode of Impact when he lost to Lashley in a street fight.

"The clock is ticking, never standing still, yet memories will come, in floods they will. This was no surprise as things began to click, when negotiations stalled because of arithmetics. In arriving hello is easy to say, in departing it's different as some will sway. But no not me as I look towards the sky, for there's a reason I've always walked with my head held high. Although the past will come trickling around and through, the future is bright with much things for me to do. So thanks to my friends and staff who showed me goodwill, because those memories are the only moments that makes the clock stand still." ~PHS #GoodBye #ThankYou #Pray4Flair #WWE #Wrestling #Sports #Entertainment #Impact #Boxing #HOF #Smile #Nothing #But #Love
