With rumors of TNA being in the red and low morale in the locker room, I doubt that the company will be around in the next 5 years. So in the event that TNA goes belly up, who would you like to see in a WWE ring?

Beer Money and Joe.

That's about it. Anyone else wouldn't really fit in. And even Joe is on the fence in terms of that.

Chris Sabin. I'd like to see him working the midcard but he would also make an excellent Trent Baretta.

By Trent Baretta, you mean someone who has no chance of ever making TV?

Samoa Joe, Robert Roode, Christopher Daniels, Ric Flair (Managing/Announcing), Austin Aries (although I'd prefer he went back to ROH), Eric Young, Chris Sabin, Alex Shelley

Absolutely, Trent Baretta is the best internet exclusive job guy in the business right now.

AJ Styles, Robert Roode and Hernandez.

Angle and AJ can fuck off.

Angle can fuck off and you have that shell of a man Ric Flair in your list? Come on...

St. Jimmy

Flair is still the GOAT. Angle is just a sad drug addict.

Xero

Flair is a sad alcoholic homeless guy.

At least he only gets pulled over for Road Rage, and not driving intoxicated.

Xero
09-18-2011, 05:08 PM
Does Flair even have a car to get pulled over in?

St. Jimmy

Well, he can borrow Matt Hardys. He won't be needing it.

I'd name some people but Xero would probably shit on me for it :(

Xero
09-18-2011, 05:22 PM
I doubt I would shit on you (two guys one cup isn't going to sell). I may tell you that half the guys wouldn't get a fair shot in WWE, and I wouldn't be wrong.

I don't think anyone besides maybe Beer Money would really fit into what Vince looks at as wrestlers. He'd tell guys like AJ, Daniels and Kaz they are too small (so they probibly wouldnt make it to main event status) and he'd tell Joe to come back after he loses 20+ lbs (although a 240/250lb Joe does sound interesting)

Xero
09-18-2011, 05:26 PM
Realistically, the vast majority of the TNA roster wouldn't even get a second look at. Some of the legends (Flair, The Dudleys and the like) would probably get a Legends deal just so WWE could use them in DVDs and figures. But realistically, the TNA roster isn't in WWE's plan, and if they are, it's a very select one or two outside of the obvious like Beer Money.

Golden Shower then?

Mr. C
09-18-2011, 05:35 PM
AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels, Kurt Angle, Matt Morgan, Robert Roode, and The Dudley Boyz

If TNA were to go under, those 7 would be perfect for an invasion/new stable storyline.

Flair is a sad alcoholic homeless guy.

he is also friends with trips so if he don't have a tna paycheck the wwe will have to take care of him.

AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels, Samoa Joe, The Pope for mid-card tier.

Beer Money, MCMG for the tag division if the WWE really plans to reinvent the division for the long term.

A few of the Knockouts to beef up the Divas division for actual wrestlers to prevent too many repeat matches like now.

varying in degrees of how they're used and providing they're all 'motivated', Angle, Jeff Hardy, AJ, MCMG, Joe, Sting, Flair, Pope, Beautiful People, RVD, Beer Money, Aries, TBK, Doug, Robbie E, Tenay and Borash can all play certain roles for Vince

09-18-2011, 07:16 PM
Kurt Angle, AJ Styles, Mr. Anderson, Petey Williams, and Jeff Hardy.

* AJ Styles - Workhorse babyface on SmackDown!
* Alex Shelley - Babyface tag team with Chris Sabin on...let's go SmackDown!?
* Austin Aries - Mid-card heel on RAW
* Brooke Adams - Takes her ass wherever she goes
* Bubba Ray Dudley - I'd like to see him as a singles heel in the WWE, not going to lie
* Chris Sabin - Same as Alex Shelley
* Douglas Williams - Heel tag team on SmackDown! with Magnus
* Hernandez - Shawn Michaels brings him to RAW as their "Mason Ryan" type "let's try and push this guy" babyface
* James Storm - Babyface tag team on RAW with Robert Roode
* Jesse Neal (to developmental) - a "wait and see" type thing
* Madison Rayne - Heel Diva on RAW
* Magnus - Heel tag team on SmackDown!
* Matt Morgan - Main event heel on RAW
* Robbie E. (for a feud with Zack Ryder -- "are you serious, bro?!?") - Mid-card heel on RAW; might not last long
* Robert Roode - Babyface tag team on RAW with James Storm
* Rosita - Babyface Diva on SmackDown!
* Samoa Joe - Babyface on SmackDown!; success depends on how well people connect
* Sarita - Heel Diva on RAW
* Velvet Sky - Babyface Diva on SmackDown!
* Victoria - Heel Diva on SmackDown!
* Winter - Heel Diva on SmackDown!
* Zema Ion - Mid-card babyface on SmackDown!

That's my list of guys that I think the WWE would realistically pick up. Some of the other guys there are very, very talented -- but have been in the WWE before and are notorious for attitude problems (Brian Kendrick, Frankie Kazarian, D'Angelo Dinero, etc.). While those could easily be forgiven, I doubt they'd be amongst the first talents signed.

Revive the Crusierweight Division with the X Division. And I mean WCW's Crusierweight Division, not WWE's watered down version.

Clearly you put effort into that list, but..
AJ will reach Evan Bourne levels at best.
Shelly and Sabin = Tag Team aka WWE death
Austin Aries: This guy is the man atm. 'The greatest man that ever lived'? X-divion = cruiserweight, Non existence in WWE.
Madison is the best heel diva i've seen with actual wrestling skills. God I hope Gail Kim comes back to TNA and sparks a fued to put on great matches matches.

Too drunk to continue but i'm pickin' up what you're putting down.

It's all part of this long term booking thing they're going for. That video package for last years Wrestlemania actually was Sting in the cabin, but Triple H and Undertaker jumped him backstage before he could come out because they didn't want a WCW guy beating the streak.

Robert Roode/James Storm (keep them together for a bit, then let both thrive on their own)
Matt Morgan (10x better than back in the day)
A.J. Styles (make him the new Christian)
The Dudley Boyz (never was a huge fan, but they're in shape now and could be the jolt that the Tag Division needs)
Magnus & Nigel McGuinness (British Invasion tag team 2.0)
Madison Rayne (better than the vast majority of current divas)
Angelina Love (see above)
Mickie James (see above)
Tara (see above)

Jarrett, provided he wasnt treated like a Tyler Reks. He was the best heel around for a long ass time last yr.

Also, Bully Ray.
