TNA Wrestling files injunction against WWE over contract, trade secrets violations.

The natural business rivalry between Nashville-based Total Nonstop Action Entertainment Inc. and World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. has spilled over to the courtroom.

TNA filed an injunction request Wednesday in Davidson County Chancery Court, claiming that a former TNA employee provided WWE with confidential information and trade secrets.

According to the suit, WWE is now using that information to poach wrestlers from TNA.
