Opinion question...

[The One]

Who currently from TNA, who has NOT been in WWE previously (in a meaningful way, dark matches don't count) would benefit from "moving up" to McMahon's company?

Conversely, is there anyone currently signed to WWE who would be wise to head down to Dixieland? And remember, WWE is signing bigger paychecks than TNA is.

From TNA to WWE- James Storm.
I love this guy. If he can keep his gimmick and is given a decent chance he could be a solid upper-midcard guy.

From WWE to TNA- some fans.

[Theo Dious]

Okay, I just looked over TNA's roster and I'm floored by how much of their roster has been in WWE.

That being said, probably Shark Boy. Funny too, as the first time I ever heard of him was at a WWE dark match.

[Lock Jaw]

Probably nobody. There are multiple guys in TNA who have the talent to do well in WWE, but right now WWE doesn't really have a good environment at all for pushing anybody new. They'd just go there and end up BRADEN WALKER'D.

If Low-Ki/Senshi/Kawal ever gets on TV and proves me wrong then I'll change my mind.

[Skippord]

Robert Roode, Eric Young

[TheHart]

Evan Bourne in TNA, working the X-Division makes me smile. It's really where he belongs and would be a lot better utilized.

[Droford]

Awesome Kong

She might look hot minus 150 lbs

[Destor]

Robert Rhoode, Hotstuff Hernandez and Nigel McGuiness all need to go to New York.

Shelton Benjimin needs to head to Florida.

[Storer50]

Awesome Kong She might be headed there anyway after dipshit Hogan's comments today

[VSG]

I would go for Hamada and Kong, too many pretty/fragile women in WWE

[Nicky Fives]

Robert Roode & EY could come in as Team Canada..... could feud with The Hart Dynasty in an "East Coast vs. West Coast" all-canadian feud..... Awesome Kong would be killer in WWE but it will never happen IMO..... Hernandez has the look, but does not have the charisma (which definately hasn't stopped WWE in the past) I still have no idea why they released Matt Morgan to begin with......

[CenaFan]

I know people will be mad I said this but I would love to see AJ Styles move over to the WWE, I know it would never happen. AJ is one of the few reasons I watch TNA, thinking about him taking on HBK and Triple H makes me think he could be the next big star in WWE.

[JeRz]

As a huge Shelton Benjamin fan, I feel he'd be better used in TNA. Also, as stated, Evan Bourne.

[CSL]

Beer Money, especially Roode, and Wolfe would do well for Vince. MCMG might as well take their chances considering how talented they are and that TNA do fuck all with them consistently. Abyss probably has a decent run in him but I don't wanna see him wrestling the likes of Kane and Big Show (which I feel is how he'd wind up being used)

[CSL]

I know people will be mad I said this but I would love to see AJ Styles move over to the WWE, I know it would never happen. AJ is one of the few reasons I watch TNA, thinking about him taking on HBK and Triple H makes me think he could be the next big star in WWE.

Styles would never 'make it' in WWE. He could keep a job long term but he's far too bland for the top spots.

[Fox]

Styles would probably get the Benoit/Booker T treatment in the WWE; recognized as a useful talent who can almost always put on a great match, is given the good old "Employee of the Month" World Title reign, and spends most of their time in pointless feuds in the mid-card.


On topic, however, I would love to see Kurt Angle return to the WWE to end his career. It's really where he belongs, even if there isn't really anybody new for him to wrestle there (aside from CM Punk, which would be a fucking classic).

On the other side, Shelton Benjamin and Evan Bourne would be much better suited jumping to TNA. Bourne is far too talented to be used as cannon fodder for a guy like Sheamus.

[Joesgonnakillyou]

Samoa Joe as Umaga II

[The One]

In terms of guys from TNA going to WWE; Beer Money are the only ones who I think would be better used and/or not just thrown into development limbo and slapped with a couple shit gimmicks before being let go. Though, for James Storm it might be an easy assumption to make that he'd get "Braden Walker'd" I'd like to think that James wouldn't let himself go before he arrived. Plus, his appeal has never been in his physic, it's always been that he's a damn fine worker and can cut a pretty impressive promo. The only downside to Beer Money showing up at McMahon's door would be that both would suffer from appearing much smaller physically in WWE's landscape than in TNA.

In terms of some who might want to think about heading down south (keeping in mind, Christian was a glorified jobber when he left, and after his TNA run he's been allowed to actually win matches upon his return)...Shelton Benjamin. A big big motivation for me wanting to see this is the possibility that Shelton and The Pope could team up. I was always dumbfounded that WWE never made them a team when they had the chance. Their styles, I would think, would mesh so well together. I do NOT think Evan Bourne should go to TNA, simply because they already have AJ Styles, who's better in pretty much every single way. In WWE he can be the high flying good looking guy, in TNA he'd be a poor man's AJ. DH Smith is another guy who I think in WWE is never going to break the glass ceiling, but in TNA he's most likely be given a chance to shine on the upper level, and possibly up his profile enough for WWE to take him back and use him in a more substantial way.

TOVO Fact: Tovo doesn't use any kind of facial product to cleanse his face - just good old fashion soap and water to keep it blemish free.

Braden Walker wasn't let go because of the enviornment. He was let go because he was fat and useless.
