<p>Only see him thrown into the whole Abyss, Raven, Foley, Stevie stuff on screen. But that has gone on way way way to long imho. Off screen he could make a good RA but not better then other potential ones and the ones they have. We shall see though.</p><p> </p><p>

PS if it helps getting RVD on board signing Dreamer do it! lolz.</p>

Raven proved in ECW and in early TNA that he can Main Event and get good heat and also wrestle a good match. Why is he losing a bunch of matches? Same with Dr. Stevie, minus the Main Eventing part.</p>

Well Raven can't really go as good as those days anymore and rumor has it he likes the bottle to much. I don't see Raven getting a Main Event run anymore but a new flock or other midcard/uppermidcard feuds could work. Plus he has only recently returned no telling what they are going to do with him. As for Stevie yeah they really need to put an end to him vs Abyss for a while.

I think it is funny watching stevie and raven now. The roles are completly reversed from EVERYTHING else the two have always done together. Raven is the lacky now it seams like. Stevie pulls the strings and raven is the backup. Not that there is anything wrong with stevie being the focal point because he has a long time left in the ring and raven is getting near the end i think. It is just odd.

I was thinking the same thing as well. It is weird seeing Rave in the lacky positon and Stevie in the boss role.

 

I would like to see the return to his Scott Anthony/Scotty the Body role as it is such a huge departure from the Raven character. In fact, the first time I saw him in ECW I did not even realize that it was the same guy. And I had watched him going back to his days in Global!

I personally hate Raven being in the lackey position. Raven is one of my favorite wrestlers and the thing that made him cool is that he played the best mind games around. If the wrestlers thought they had the solution (kayfabe, of course) Raven would always have a trick up his sleeve. I was excited when Raven came back, but now he is getting misused IMO.

Well it was glaringly obvious he would be in the whole Abyss feud given his involvement at Slammiversary we don't know how he will be used moving forward and the hardcore match at final resolution was good for what it was. I wouldn't say he has been misused yet and I am seeing Richards and Raven as being more on an equal footing then leader/lackey.

I didn't say that it wasn't obvious, I just thought that the story was over long before Raven appeared, but alas, it wasn't. I thought that Abyss and Stevie were just going to have a small rivalry pop up every now and then due to their previous issues just like how The Rock and Stone Cold did their rivalry.

PWI have confirmed that Deaner is indeed gone from TNA. From what I have seen from him on TNA I won't miss him, I have heard he was quite talented etc but getting some more experience and then possibly coming back under a new guise would be an option. More room and money for "real" talent and marketing yay!

Apart from the whole Jarret-Foley-Hogan-Dixie stuff which is meant to be vague and thus hopefully interesting to follow what will actually happen/ is happening what do you mean?

 

As covered before they try to cram 4 hours into 2 but for me nothing isn't really making sense atm. Or maybe that is just my weird brain in that I can follow Russo booking lolz.

I got a question... This Jan 4th iMPACT is a one off special right? Because they keep talking about the start of the monday night wars....

 

I'm not sure I read a Interveiw with Hogan and he said he was intrested to see were the second Monday Night Wars would take TNA but I read something from Spike that said if the show pulled good ratings they would see about moving slots
