- Former ECW & TNA star Joe Dorgan, aka Johnny Swinger, signed a contract with World Wrestling Entertainment this past week.

This comes just a few weeks after Dorgan was officially granted his release from TNA a few weeks back after requesting it for quite some time. More on this as it develops.

Any thoughts on WWE's newest acquisition and how they might use him?

Maybe it was him driving the limo...

I don't think Johnny Swinger is very good... however atleast now I can say i've had some training by a current WWE star.

Maybe they could debut him as the WWE's answer to Jerry Springer. I can just see Johnny holding a segment called "The Johnny Swinger Show". :shifty:

That would mean he would have to go to Smackdown. Cause Raw already has The Highlight Reel. ;)

They could actually play up the tight UPN censor thing and have the divas' ankles blurred. :shifty:

Can someone tell me what exactly this guy brings to the table. Any time I have watched TNA this guy has done nothing for me.

I don't even remember Swinger in ECW. I remember him jobbing to high hell in WCW, though.

I am surprised Simon Diamond hasn't been signed with WWE. I mean, he is involved with Dawn Marie.

I see Swinger heading to OVW for a while (like with Simon Dean) and then being brought up to help hype the ECW show.

Simon Diamond's not doing much at the moment, so maybe the WWE will bring him in to team with Swinger. :y:

I remember that. They were jobbing him so much, he could only afford the sleeves of a jacket and not the whole thing. :(

Swinger is alright, there's nothing wrong with him, he has a good look to him and his wrestling skills are alright and in the WWE looks come above skill, so he'll be in the mid card area for a while.

Simond Diamond Def needs to get signed, as Simon Diamond though, not *shudders* The Empire Saint
