To put the speculation to rest, Frankie "Kaz" Kazarian's apparent departure from TNA is indeed a storyline/angle. He's really not leaving TNA, despite the announcement they put up on the company website. To play up the storyline, his profile has been removed from the website.

TOTAL NONSTOP ACTION WRESTLING TO PART WAYS WITH KAZ

TNAwrestling.com has learned that at the end of this month, Kaz will leave Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. Kaz requested his release on Monday morning.

Before departing TNA, Kaz has agreed to fulfill his obligations of competing at this weekend's live events in North and South Carolina.

Kaz will appear on the premiere episode of the new "Karen's Angle" interview segment this Thursday night on "iMPACT!" to comment on his departure and his reasons for doing so.

TNA Wrestling wishes Kaz all the best in his future endeavors.
