Chavo Guerrero joins TNA
http://www.impactwrestling.com/news/...PACT-WRESTLING
NEWS: Chavo Guerrero Jr. Joins TNA IMPACT WRESTLING ![]() LEGENDARY GUERRERO WRESTLING FAMILY’S CHAVO GUERRERO, JR INKS DEAL WITH TNA IMPACT WRESTLING Third generation wrestling standout to debut in the ring Thursday, July 26, live on SPIKE TV! TNA IMPACT WRESTLING’s President Dixie Carter announced the signing of Chavo Guerrero, Jr. via twitter. He will make his IMPACT WRESLTING debut on Thursday, July 26 on SPIKE TV. This signing means that two members of the legendary Guerrero family are part of the TNA family; as Chavo is the nephew of TNA commentator Hector Guerrero. Tune in Thursdays at 8:00pm ET to catch IMPACT WRESTLING live on Spike TV. Hailing from one of the more storied and successful families in the pro wrestling arena, the Guerrero family has racked up more championship titles and accolades than anyone. He is the son of Chavo, Sr. and his grandfather and patriarch of the Guerrero family, the late Gory Guerrero, is still one of the most famous wrestlers in Mexico. Having competed all over the world for various promotions, Chavo has won a number of championship gold, including a tag-team gold with his late uncle Eddie Guerrero. Prior to signing with TNA, he appeared on the highly successful ratings giant Ring Ka King in India. Bill Savage went over to the (Stu Hart) house and one of the Hart kids was running around with his hair wet. Savage asked why his hair was wet. Stu said, "the little bast--d broke a vase this morning, so I stuck his head in the toilet. Want me to show you again?" |

Very pleased for him, Ive always liked chavo and with TNA being on a bit of a upswing of late it should be cool.
Should he be in the x division or not though? |

I agree... Hey now they have another wrestling legend (yeah I said it) to help some of the TNA roster with their mic skills... Other than Bully Ray, who has really good mic skills in TNA? I can't think of one right now... Anyone?

Chavo Guerrero is going to debut and destroy Austin Aries in less than 18 seconds and win the coveted TNA World title.

Nothing against Chavo, but I can't see what benefit TNA can get from him on screen. Backstage is a different story, but his character has pretty much remained unchanged for the longest time.

speculating, unless they have something "special" in mind or he's added something dramatically new to his game/shows something he's never shown before, I'd guess he'll have some good matches, do the rounds with most of the X Division guys, make a bit of money and then head behind the scenes as an agent/producer

I think Chavo would be a good leader for the Aces and Eights stable. Chavo is a very underrated talker in my opinion

He's never given any airtime in WWE at all these past 2-3 years. This is like a mexican middle finger to that company.

From Chavo's Twitter: "There's more than one Frogsplash in TNA now!"
It sounds like he'll do a program with RVD. |

Good for Chavo.
Is he really a draw, at all? Even in the Latino markets? Else, i guess logic dictates that he'll be used as an enhancement talent. Like Finlay's role in WWE. But this is TNA. |

What Chavo brings to the table: * Experience in pretty much every big promotion. * Ring skills to help polish some of the younger guys. * He's part of a well-respected wrestling family. Sounds like a good signing to me. I doubt he'll be given the World Title, despite all the jokes, but I do think he'll be given the chance to really impress and be given that chance to be a stand-out presence on Impact Wrestling. When he was doing time on NXT Redemption, Chavo was actually a pretty interesting personality. He made some humourous remarks from the stage (ala Dolph Ziggler) and revealed himself to be quite the scheming heel (no surprise in that one, really). I would love to see what Chavo can do with Zema Ion. |

And for the record, I think Chavo is a good talker. Not great, but definitely more comfortable on the mic than people give him credit for. He's certainly capable of taking a mic, going out to the ring and cutting a two-minute promo audibly and clearly to set-up a PPV match, or something.
I think what is truly underrated about Chavo Guerrero was his ability to connect as a personality. He was often compared to Eddie Guerrero -- one of the most charismatic performers we've ever seen in professional wrestling -- but when you look at Chavo's career, he was always over, and he was always entertaining on some sort of level. A lot of that came from his personality, and how he managed to project himself. He was perfectly likeable when he needed to get cheers, and he was appropriately wormy when he needed to be booed. There is a lot to be taken from Chavo -- especially when it comes to what JR calls "maximizing minutes." |
