Note On Rich Swann’s TNA Contract Status

Rich Swann made his return to TNA a couple of months ago, and a new report has an update on his contract status. Swann returned on the August 7th episode of Impact, replacing KC Navarro in First Class. Swann and and AJ Francis attacked the injured Navarro after Francis told the latter star he had been replaced by the returning Swann.
