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?

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.

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.

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).

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

Same as 5 years ago.

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.

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.
