Would you sign with WWE?
Let's say WWE offered you a 4 year contract. With a
World Title Shot!!. But Let's say you sign with them. and you win the royal rumble, after being with the company for 3 years, and are now headlining Wrestlemania (you know you'll win at mania). But you over hear talking backstage about how Vince is attempting to screw you. (reasons unknown). But you also get an offer from TNA. Earnings from WWE: $5300,00 per month Earnings from TNA (if you sign with tna): $5800.00 per month What do you????. Last edited by Swish; 07-04-2012 at 05:44 PM. |

If I signed for WWE with those guarantees for that money, Vince wouldn't be screwing me, I'd be screwing myself.

In saying that, I'd still sign with WWE.

WWE: guaranteed contract, title shot and a lot of publicity
TNA: decent cash, better schedules.....a better chance to be myself. the question is....how can I survive earning $300.00 a year???? |

That's better. WWE. TNA has about maybe 2% of WWE's mainstream appeal.

Also if you sign for WWE, win the title and headline Wrestlemania, but then get screwed at some point to the extent where you quit or are released from WWE, TNA would still be snapping at your heels just for the chance to sign a former WWE champion anyway.
Also in your scenario, if they both offered you the contracts at the same time then you wouldn't know about the Vince screwing you thing yet, so definitely WWE. |

No way could TNA ever pay more than a Wrestlemania-Main-Event-Calibre wrestler.
And if I overheard of a pending screwjob, it'd make more sense to just walk in on them and ask what's going on. |

These clauses would never be in any contract Vince draws up.
TNA, on the other hand... |

Which is why I'm sure TNA contracts come written in crayon with a big smily face at the end

I would use the "screwing" information to publicly re-negotiate (read: blackball) my contract, and add in this stip:
![]() STARRING TOM GUYCOTT ![]() Worked for Brock Lesnar, it'll work for me. |

Probably Head to TNA to build Character more since it worked for Christian. I think a promotion jump would put me in the spotlight of TNA probably gain me a few championship mark up my worth and put me in a better situation with the WWE in the future. WWE is very unpredictable with talent. Better to go with the surer move. My ultimate goal would be
the WWE though. |

WWE. No question. A Royal Rumble win and a World Title victory at Mania? That makes you "the man" these days.
If you went to TNA first, Vince would always and forevermore look at you as "a TNA guy" and put you through a world of shit when you did eventually come to his company. You would have to do the whole job to the stars for a year thing before ever getting a spot near the top, and even then, you would never be one of "Vince's boys" like Cena, Orton, Undertaker, Triple H and Michaels. You would always be a Booker T or a Tazz or a RVD to him - a main event player, but never "the man." And if things didn't work out and you did get "screwed", you go to TNA and make good money for a smaller schedule. Then one day you go back to WWE to finish off your career. |

Not sure where your 'logic' comes in here though, 3 years with a main event slot at 'Mania then screwed over. Or TNA, who would give their right nut to sign a WWE main eventer & 'Mania headliner and would no doubt pay ypu a ricockulous amount of money for the priviledge of working 3/4 dates a month....yeah pretty simple stuff here.

Would not sign with WWE.
Would debate signing with TNA. Money thing isn't an issue really - and the 'dream' of WWE is not the same place it was when I was a little kid, so for me it'd be more about work rate, enjoying my position, traveling and flexibility, etc. than about money / 'so-called WWE fame' or titles or anything like that. |

You'd make WAY more money in WWE, merchandise if you had a title shot would be fucking ridiculous.
What you propsoed is similar to what was in Jericho's book, WCW offered him like $750k a year, WWE only $300k a year but with merchandise options. Nash and Hall both said they looked forward to that ( merchandise ) check more than anything else. |

To be honest, I don't think I could handle the load. The chronic pain I'm in to begin with when I stand on my feet for long periods of time would cause a painkiller addiction, not to mention all the abuse.
If I were a manager, possibly. But managers have no place in WWE. |

I'd say not until I have a good few years of experience under my belt (at least 4-5), paying my dues, touring the world (i.e. Canada, Mexico, Japan, Europe, Puerto Rico, etc.), learning different styles of pro wrestling (i.e. shoot, catch, lucha, hardcore, etc.).
And when I feel I am ready, that's when I'd go for it. |
