    Threadjack:


    So now that Sabin is gone, TNA has gone from the "Future Who's Who of Wrestling" to the "'Who? Who?' of Wrestling"


    Styles, Sabin, Danielson, Shelley, the Bucks, Homicide, Pope... and those are just the ones who are gone. HOW incompetent do you have to be not to be able to build a Fed around this talent? Add in Joe, Aries, Roode, Kazarian, Angle, and Ray who are all still there (and likely waiting to leave), and it's mind-boggling.

    By Danielson do you mean Christopher Daniels? They never had Bryan Danielson.

    But will Jarrett's league be smart enough to capitalize?

    Yeah, sorry. The hazard of typing while you're working.

    I think he'll get AJ, but who knows now that AJ's NJPW champ.


    I have no idea regarding Daniels and the rest. I think we can safely assume that Aries and Kazarian (and maybe Joe) will leave whenever their contracts are up. But whether Jarrett will pick them up or not, I have zero idea.


    My only hope is that Jarrett learned the lessons that he should have from TNA. If he did, GFW could be something. If not, no sleep lost. (At very least, he seems to have learned to avoid idiotic "double entendre" names, so there's hope)

    GFW is a sucky name too. Doesn't "chant" well.


    I almost wanna send them a resume and see if I can "Eric Bischoff" my way into something.

    Doesn't chant any worse than "ECW" or anything with W (like PWG). People will just shorten it to "G-F-Dub" anyway


    And it's miles better than "T-N-A"

    You know what makes a really terrible chant? "DUB DUB E! DUB DUB E!"
