Paul London & Brian Kendrick for me, definitely. Londrick vs. The Guns vs. Generation Me (apparently The Young Bucks are going to be using this name in TNA) in a Three-Way Ladder Match for the TNA World Tag Team Titles? I...would...jizz.
Ken Anderson is another guy. He can wrestle, he can talk...I'd bring him in as an asshole heel -- the role he does best. Bring him in with Rob Van Dam and Tommy Dreamer, and have Paul Heyman serve as their manager. Not saying that they would wear team colours, or even have a stable name, or anything, but I would like to see Heyman revive the role of the old-school manager in TNA. He could would the like between egomaniacal, self-praising genius and cult-hero so effectively in TNA, with the way they do things. Heyman taking Foley's side against Bischoff and Hogan would be...interesting.
Sara Del Ray and Lizzy Valentine for the Knockouts Division, and The Minnesota Homewrecking Crew and Team Blondage for the Knockouts Tag Team Division. I wouldn't bring in too many ladies, because I find that they are actually mis-using a lot of the ones they currently have. Alissa Flash, for example. Valentine is someone I've always had a soft-spot for, though. She was Homicide-trained, so maybe they could actually put her on-screen with him, and have her join World Elite? I'm not sure if Krissy Vaine would be up for working with TNA, but Amber O'Neal worked a tryout match recently. Team Blondage would make a great "rival clique" for The Beautiful People, in my opinion.
Giant Bernard to team with Tomko. I could see Tomko being used as a singles guy, but I think that he and Bernard would just be more useful in the tag team division.
I'd bring in Nick Dinsmore under the ring name "Nick Bischoff." Keep the angle of him being Eric Bischoff's nephew, but drop the retard shtick. He's Eric's brother's kid now. I'd like to see the heel with someone in the offices angle done right, and Dinsmore has got some great technical wrestling skills. Kurt Angle vs. Nick Bischoff would make me jizz in my pants. But I'm probably alone there.
I could also throw a bunch of ROH guys at you. Davey Richards has got a lot going on, so I don't know if he would sign. I'd maybe give him a few more years on the indy scene. Colt Cabana is one that TNA has had interest in. He would be fantastic. Kevin Steen & El Generico as a tag team? The Briscoes? The Kings of Wrestling? All fucking good, but it might be oversaturating things. You'd bring them in at different times, or perhaps even bring in Steen and Generico as singles guys.
One ROH guy I would definitely sign is Kenny King. The man won me over the first time I saw him. He's got ring skills, a marketable athleticism and a personality. He's like a louder Shelton Benjamin. King in the X-Division would be tremendous.
