Well, although neither is really answerable, I would assume yes and yes.
TNA is a decent alternative at the moment, and has a good palatte of talent, and has the best of two divisions right now (tag and cruiserweight wrestling), and while there are loyal people who watch it, and a general rise rather than decrease in fanbase, TNA will likely stay afloat for some time. A person like Lesnar could really help the company, though.
The problem is that no one really
draws anymore. The chances of TNA finding that breakout star as about as high as the WWE at this point, and they have a high amount of wrestling prodigies among their ranks. If TNA could get mainstream attention, and could get Lesnar to work for them long-term, I think TNA could become viable competition for the WWE. They certainly won't get the WWE to the ropes, but if they land a blow, it's on, IMO, especially if general WWE fans see that TNA has a better cruiserweight division (which fans really just eat up), and a more competetive atmosphere. A lot of people won't agree with this, but I think TNA is stronger than the WWE in some points, and those points are much more obvious to general fans than we realise. If they can break away from their independant feel, then I believe we may see big things from TNA, and why not, they're trying in some areas than the WWE is, and it really wouldn't surprise me if this payed off.
Would Lesnar be interested? For now it is less travelling and a return to the wrestling business. I don't know how much TNA can offer Lesnar, but with a fringe benefits, and most of their shows being located in Orlando, I really think Lesnar would feel more comfortable working for them, even if there is less finacial security involved.
Of course Lesnar may just come back to wrestling for the dough, which could potentially rule out TNA, but if Lesnar was more into it for the wrestling, TNA could appear a likely candidate for Brock, as would Japan, which is why I'm sure there is a conflict as to whether or not Lesnar should be brought back. Will he? In my mind yes, and in my mind he'll take it, but out of the corner of his eye, I believe TNA does hold some potential merit, and it wouldn't
surprise me to see Lesnar there, although I don't think it is too likely. The WWE has a much better chance at this stage, which is a no brainer due to Lesnar contacting them about returning, and the fact they are better set finacially.
