On the off chance, does anyone have any idea whether the Louis Theroux/Power Plant incident was a work?

No it wasnt.
What actually happened?
On one of his Weird Weekends, Louis visited a WCW Nitro show and spoke to a trainer, "Sarge". After seemingly making friends with one another, Louis was up for going for a try out at the Powerplant training facility. However, later after the show, Louis annoyed the Sarge by asking about the pre-determined nature of matches. This annoyed the trainer who held a grudge until Louis turned up at the Powerplant. Louis didn't do too badly at cutting a first time promo, but then is forced to exercise and run until he "pukes" and is laughed/heckled at by all the other wrestlers after lying on the floor claiming to be a "dying cockroach".It just seemed like a work due to the seed planted at the beginning of the show at Nitro and then Louis admitting how tough the wrestlers worked. It put over the wrestlers but also provided entertainment.

And don't forget, also made Sarge look like a complete prick.On a question note, not seen Micheal Shane in TNA for a while. Is he injured or just not needed at moment? Edited by bwo

This was also interesting if you watch it now just to see what wrestlers were training at the Power Plant at the time. Off the top of my head I remember seeing Elix Skipper, Ron Reis, Alan Funk, Hardbody Harrison, Chuck Palumbo and I think Johnny the Bull.

If you read CW Anderson's MySpace he talks about his time in the WCW PowerPlant and Louie actually got a pretty easy time of it in regards to most people training with Sarge.
