Is there a video of someone from TNA saying that Christian is headed back to WWE?
If there is, that'll make me happy in places that seeing grown men in spandex throwing each other around shouldn't make me happy. |

But that video doesn't prove that he is on his way.
As I understand it he has a few weeks remaining on his TNA contract and is still deciding (although more than likely knows where his future lies). In fact this was his idea as a way of 'keeping the door open' should he choose to stay in TNA. What other options do they have? Would you just have Christian disappear from TV althogether without word? Then what happens if he stays with TNA? He just comes back in a month having not been mentioned on TV? At least if he does stay they have a storyline ready and can explain his absence from TV for the last few weeks (and the reason for his return - revenge). TBH Christian himself has put them in this situation by not making a solid decision - which of course is his perogative. A few of you have critised the way they've handled this but how would you have done it? Time to get your 'Noid Hat' on boys? |

It's the kind of logic that used to mess up WCW, even when they were on top.
WWE never mentions any other promotion unless they buy them and incorporate them into storylines. It's free advertising for another comoany, in my opinion they shouldn't do it. |

Alright, just watched the video. I think it's legit for the sole reason that they didn't let Christian talk or do anything appealing at all. He had no say, Angle just berated him then they destroyed him. It appeared to me as if they were tring to make him look weak before he went on to the WWE. Or not so much him being weak, but the TNA guys being superior.

If I were Christian, I'd be going to the WWE. TNA has Russo booking, and it is really too crowded with too many "names" being placed in front of Christian. Then you've got the talent that TNA is trying to elevate as their "own" talent, like Samoa Joe, AJ Styles and Jay Lethal. Christian returning to the WWE would also probably be a larger paycheck. And an Edge & Christian reunion would be glorious. Those two trying to run Vickie Guerrero off SmackDown! would be fantastic.

I don't get why people think that? Even before he proved he could be reliable as a top guy in TNA, Christian was an upper mid-carder in the WWE. He's great on the mic, and a damn good worker. Brian Kendrick recently got a teased main event push. If Kendrick can do it, I think Christian has a very good shot.

I have little faith in WWE anymore. They've pretty much destroyed that themselves.

I think its safe to say that if Christian had stayed, he'd have been a World Champion in the WWE by now.
I think he'd come back and get a decent sized push. Does he own 'Christian Cage', or does TNA? |

I'm fairly certain he owns "Christian Cage." TNA would probably own "The Instant Classic." I like "Captain Charisma" better, anyway. I'd like to see Christian come back as just "Christian," though.

Christian on its own smacks of mid-carder imo.
'Captain Charisma' Christian Cage shouts main event at me. |

"Christian" by itself is sort of weird, I'll agree. If he were important, you'd think he would be given a last name, after all. "Christian Cage" just makes me think of TNA, though. And the WWE doesn't like guys owning their own trademarks. Seeing as he and Edge are meant to be brothers, and the WWE has sort of acknowledged Edge on-screen as "Adam Copeland" during the Matt Hardy thing, perhaps "Captain Charisma" Christian Copeland would suffice as a name?

I will say, Christian Cage vs. Chris Cage could be a future WrestleMania main event, though.

He owned it, which is the only reason he wasn't sued by WWE.
Well, maybe not the only reason, but it's the primary reason they wouldn't have won, and probably the major contributor. These were, after all, the guys who threatened legal action if the Dudl...Team 3-D wrestled in camo. |
