    TSN.CA<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The Sports Network7/30/2007 10:53:27 AMNashville, TN (Sports Network) - Suspended Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones has agreed to sign with the Total Nonstop Action pro wrestling group. According to WTVF in Nashville, the deal will be announced Tuesday. Jones was suspended for the entire 2007 season on April 10 by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell for numerous run-ins with the law in just two NFL seasons, including some type of alleged involvement in a shooting at a Las Vegas strip club during the NBA's All-Star weekend in February. That incident left an employee of the club, ironically a former pro wrestler, paralyzed from the waist down. Since entering the NFL, Jones has been questioned by police 10 times and has been arrested five times. The TNA wrestling promotion is based in Nashville and is owned by Panda Energy but is a distant second in a realm ruled by World Wrestling Entertainment. The company is run by Dixie Carter and longtime pro wrestler Jeff Jarrett. The signing of Jones is an effort to garner publicity for a fringe company in an industry already stained by implications of steroid and other drug use after the highly-publicized Chris Benoit murder-suicide case.</div>

    He can't actually wrestle, it'd be a violation of his contract.But at this point you'd think Pac-Man would hire some sort of PR director who would tell him how bad things like this is for his image. He should be doing Charity work, not Wrestling.

    It's also already confirmed he will not be doing it anyway.

Is he not doing the other stuff now too?

    That's what I saw. I can't find a link, but I'm positive that it said he will not participate in anything related to it.
