Five Years From Now....
 
When HHH retires as 35 time champion and decides to take the title with him and HBK, Taker, Edge, Christian, Jericho and Tommy Dreamer (of course) are all gone and Angle, Foley, Jarrett, Nash, Booker, Sting, and Steiner's muscle mass have all retired, which promotion will be in a better position for viewership and overall entertainment value because of its young guys?

IMO, outside of Orton, Cena, and maybe Swagger, I think TNA has a brighter future. Any thoughts?

well if things keep going the way they are tna will be out of business and wwe will have become the 'super smile time variety comedy hour'

The Jayman 07-24-2009 12:35 PM

I think the wwe will still hold the top spot. with the likes of evan bourne, kofi, ziggler,morrison, etc they are fun to watch and will only get better. I can see Morrison being the next HHH but that title will go to Orton. Jericho will retire as a 62 time IC champ

TNA doesn't have a bright looking future. The good talent will end up in WWE, and the old guy talent in WWE will go to TNA. Not a good swap.

not unless the wwe stop this PG crap.
i say a good fair few will go (back) to ROH

WWE still has the brighter future. TNA in 5 years will have gone nowhere. I hope I'm wrong but there's just no end to the awfulness in sight.

And WWE's young guys are miles ahead of TNA's anyway.

WWE will still be the WWE, and TNA will still be a 2nd rate promotion with has been stars.

Same as 5 years ago.

Orton, Cena, Swagger, DiBiase, Kofi, Bourne

Let's not forget John Effing Morrison

And CM Punk of course.

Yeah, it's really not even close.

I see this actually happening unless they get new people to run the bookings or even change the mentality of how TNA is run. It would be bad for TNA since its possible a decent amount of their good and homegrown wrestlers move to WWE (ex. Daniels, AJ Styles).

TNA is scorched earth, everyone besides for the Mafia have gotten their ass kicked. They all look like the job squad

Skippord 07-24-2009 02:52 PM

Hernandez seems to be fairly over and not had his ass kicked recently

It's still early on.

USAUSA1 07-24-2009 05:48 PM

WWE and TNA will still be boring

How the hell could anyone leave those two out?

Chavo Classic 07-25-2009 06:33 AM

WWE has a talent for making their own stars. TNA does not.

It won't even be a close competition.

WWE will raid TNA when they get to this situation.

I think it's hilarious that you think these people will be retired by then.

The only reason they'll stop wrestling is if they get seriously hurt or die. Wrestlers don't give up main event spots.

He was also trained by Shawn Michaels, and after he's found some success in TNA, I can very easily see him taking the next exit to RAW.
