As previously reported, former TNA Wrestling World Champion Eric Young has come to terms with TNA Wrestling regarding his release. TNA has now issued a statement on his release, wishing the former champion well in his future endeavors (h/t PWInsider).

It reads: “TNA Wrestling has come to terms on the release of Eric Young, effective immediately. EY has had a legendary TNA career, including twice as TNA World Champion. We wish him the best in his future endeavors.
