SaySo Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I thought about Shane McMahon as well. Maybe Shane O-Mac offered to purchase TNA back then but Dixie Carter said "no thanks." (kayfabe) But things change since Shane O-Mac isn't employed by the Dubya Dubya E. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stennick Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Things change but Shane just took over as the CEO of China Broadband Inc. and I seriously doubt he would all of the sudden just decide to buy TNA or be involved in them. If he did that it would be his way of disowning his father. There is a bigger chance of the entire WWE roster showing up in TNA on the same night than there is of Shane McMahon having something to do with TNA.

Stennick Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I think its believed and who really knows that Stephanie and Paul are the heirs to the WWE throne and with him turning 40 this year and his father well into his 60's its only a time before thats made official. It may be a bit awkward to be hanging around the company you've been a part of since birth, a company that you're the third generation male to have it be your livelihood and then to be 'shoved' out of power so to speak. He's just saving himself some awkwardness/embarrassment and most likely as you said wanting to do something else with his life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moe Hunter Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Can TNA afford to pay Y2J? I DON'T KNOW!?!?! And this shirt is too tight! It might actually be someone like Haas. It would make sese - a few years ago he was out of the company but fairly usable as he's clearly a talent but was getting messed around in storylines with Rico, then forgotten about. I think he has more value now, since Benjamin's also out of a gig, but I can see why they wouldn't want to take on more people at this stage.

sabataged Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Wouldn't it be Carlito she is talkign about? His contract ended a few years ago and every one said he was going to leave, but all of the sudden he-resigned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His contract ended a few years ago and every one said he was going to leave, but all of the sudden he-resigned. Good one and could be. Looking back let's do the ods game again lol. Yeah I wanna keep ahead of the E thread in posts lol. Carlito: 45 Shelton: 40 James : 10 Jericho: 2.5 Other: 2.5 Not that it really matters as TNA where only contacted and where not extremely interested.

Hyde Hill Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Looking back I reread some of the arguments about RVD and Hardy not coming in or in Hardy's case more then a one show as well. That was fun. Although I give Jericho coming in less chance then I did them at that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, RVD didn't come in until weeks after Hogan showed up and TNA popped a few decent TV ratings..it's like he was biding his time I'm still stunned by Hardy's decision. That dude must really love drugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyde Hill Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Plus on Micky Dixie approached her and even talked to her directly. So that can't be the reference. Yeah lito it is congrats saba. Don't care about lito either way so meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stennick Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 It still might be Haas, they guy has been let go several times, worked the indies, worked ROH maybe they wanted to bring him in but he went back to the WWE or something. It would make more sense than Shelton. She said they tried to bring him in before. Well Shelton's been with the WWE the entire time and I doubt anybody in TNA management is trying to bring in WWE guys while their in the WWE because lets face it thats wasted time. Their M.O is more a guy gets released and then they bring him in. So Haas makes more sense than Shelton. Carlito is another possible choice. Its either Carlito or Haas and with her saying she's not interested I'd lean towards Carlito since I think bloated roster and all TWGTT could supply a boost to the tag team division.

Jaysin Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Seriously, everyone needs to experience a TNA Live Event. I met so many people and Pope was perhaps one of the nicest and genuinely kind people I have ever met. The only person that was kind of not nice was Robert Roode who just seemed like a grouch, but everyone else was really nice. Kurt Angle seemed so real too. He actually looked into my eyes and thanked me for coming out. I was in awe of him, and he just wanted me to talk to him like I would a regular person. It was so much fun. A WWE event has never made me feel this excited about wrestling. Oh, Don West is a top notch person. Had a few conversations with him tonight and he just seems really cool.

Stennick Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Don's very awesome, I talked to him several times at Lockdown, I bought my Desmond Wolfe t shirt from him personally. Very cool guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaysin Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 I got the brown bag special with the new RVD shirt. I bought the new Jeff Hardy shirt, The Pro Wrestling is Real Anderson shirt, Pope sunglasses, a program(which was actually really kick ass), and I bought a Jeff Jarrett acoustic guitar. Its nice and has a laser etching of him in it. http://i526.photobucket.com/albums/cc344/The_Purging/P9102477.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepy Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Looking at all the names mentioned I really don't see why TNA think they need them. Matt Morgan could have been and probably could still be the next Goldberg (although his star has fallen badly in the last year). Compare the too and there's really not a great difference between their two skill sets. Or failing that, why not find the next rookie big thing? That's cheaper and if it works you could end up with as a big a star and then make a big deal about him being homegrown. That's what made Goldberg partly so successful. He was a proper WCW guy and became huge for them but when he went to the WWE (there were other mitigating stupid booking reasons) but he was just another guy. And continue pushing Pope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaysin Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Morgan has better mic skills, athleticism, and in ring ability than Goldberg ever did. Saying the two have similar skill sets is just wonky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantabulous Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Goldberg clicked because had that 'it' that few wrestlers have that you just can't teach and without it you're simply not going to get to that Goldberg-level of connecting with the crowd. And that's not a knock on Morgan, who can talk and is a great athlete. The unfortunate reality is that ability and talent can only take you so far; unless you connect with the crowd, there is only so big you can get. Matt Morgan, for all the talent he does have, has never shown that 'it' factor and he probably never will at this stage of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
