According to Wrestling Observer, former WWE Star MVP is scheduled to debut for TNA within the next couple weeks. It should be noted that Wrestling News World has reported interest from TNA in signing MVP the past month or so.If a wrestler returns and no one sees it does it really happen?

If a wrestler returns and no one sees it does it really happen?

A profound question, and one for the ages.

While there may currently be no way to establish whether such a return has taken place (i.e. it was on TNA, and nobody watched it) it doesn't mean it doesn't exist or happen. For example, if we are unaware of another human's suffering and they don't tell us or we don't infer it, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Perhaps the more relevant question, rather than does it happen is, does it actually matter?

Call him MOI - most outstanding individual/Miles Oliver (some name with an I)

It'd fit in with a gimmick of a guy stuck up on himself since moi is french for me.

More like mildly over individual

Hmm, I didn't hear anything about MVP getting signed, but I did hear TNA resigning this guy named Antonio Banks that worked for them years ago :shifty:

I thought I remembered him talking about not liking TNA on Colt's podcast a while back.

Translation: He's signed a deal but can't/won't talk about it until he randomly shows up on Impact or they air the first promo for his debut with the company.

I wonder what would have happened if the WWF didn't sign a Reject names Steve Austin?

It was clear that Steve Austin was going to be a star when WCW fired him. With MVP I think we have already seen the best of what he is going to bring to the table.

When he debuts your post will get pos rep. Neg rep if he doesn't show up soon.

It was clear? They brought him in as the ringmaster. He's been quoted as saying they had literally no plans for him what so ever.

He was a huge star in WCW tag team champion, United States Champion. It was clear it was a mistake for them to fire him. The Ringmaster doesn't factor into it at all.

Going from the WWF to WCW or vice versa was a lateral move.

Going from the WWE to TNA is like jumping off a cliff.

Yeah, I have trouble buying that the money is comparable to WWE money. I'm guessing it's just better than "indie circuit" money for Kurt Angle. No way he's getting the same cash as he was making before.

SlickyTrickyDamon
01-23-2014, 02:15 AM
Angle has Spike TV money along with it. He probably does pretty well for himself in TNA. That'll of course stop if Spike drops them. They'll all be totally fucked.

The schedule must play into it as well, they weren't really doing house shows for a while and even when they did it was lucky if they were hitting 100 dates a year including tv/ppv.

JimmyMess

Please elaborate, Jimmy.

Steve Austin going from WCW to WWF was a then-current midcard star (granted injured) going from one equal to another. MVP going to TNA is a former midcard star going from WWE to obscurity (to North Americans, where WWE 'rasslin is the best) then to a company that is failing.

This article is now about the American Wolves and should be re-titled TNA signs more rejects. MVP continues to deny signing.

I wouldn't say "obscurity", he's been in Japan. He wrestled in New Japan, which is one of the biggest wrestling companies overseas so it's not like he's been sitting around watching RAW, waiting for a call.

MVP was awesome. He's in the top few guys that WWE has dropped the ball with over the past decade.

Never into MVP. He was just meh. That got what they could out of him.

That's actually really good and marketable. :y:

Millennials would dig it.

MVP has a broad move set when you allow him. Benoit helped train him! WWE just likes to limit their wrestlers.

MVP is very expressive emotionally. Hope TNA uses him in a lot of skits.

01-25-2014, 09:47 PM
MVP is pretty awesome. His work on the SmackDown brand was really quite good. His move to RAW and face turn kind of left him out to dry. TNA could do far worse than signing this guy. They should bring back Elijah Burke and make them a tag team. TNA needs some good tag teams to mix it up with Bad Influence and The Wolves.

Elijah Burke is the goods. How is he not in a major promotion?

that's why I said to North Americans... I know where has been, but to the mainstream wrestling world ('Murica), he has been gone.
