Jack Swagger: Release? TNA?

As noted earlier, the @CrankyVince Twitter account recently suggested that Jack Swagger asked for his release from WWE. The account has leaked sensitive information in the past, which has caused WWE officials to grow concerned that it is administered by someone within the company, or with close ties to Vince McMahon's inner circle.

According to a source, there is some truth to the story. Swagger recently informally spoke with Triple H about either a release, or taking some time off. WWE wants to keep him, and there are those that believe that Swagger does not want to join TNA since TNA pays -- in most cases -- a third of what WWE pays. Also, no one backstage is really talking up TNA as being a great place to work, and Christian has been very vocal to this day about how miserable he was there.
