NJPW still has a handful of matches with their existing roster I want to see and the indies could use another body for big matches with all the new talent. I guess if I wanted to see samoa joe in a bunch of meaningless tag matches?? I mean he could easily do both if he wanted

Ideally I'd like to see him with an AJ schedule, where he appears at big shows for both companies. I wonder what kind of money he's asking for. ROH isn't using Del Rio anymore since he's too pricey for their budget.

AJ schedule would be great, provided his body can hold up - and I've got no loving clue if it could. Joe has still shown he's one hell of a wrestler when he's put in a big match situation. Naturally, though, I just want him to have a bunch of PWG matches. Wonder who else is gonna be on their way out in the coming days. Would Love Crazzy Steve to get that New Japan run he's always deserved.

skaboomizzy posted:Any other promoter in TNA's current position would be trying to snap up any hot indie talent that isn't being pursued by WWE/NXT, maybe find some way to work out a talent-share agreement with some of the ROH undercard. Since this is Dixie Carter, she'll just bring in any fossils she recognizes that are still ambulatory. They wanted to get some top indie guys last year, but part of the problem is anyone with WWE aspirations is loathe to go there.

Yeah I am pretty much of the position that a split ROH/NJPW schedule would be the ideal workload for any wrestler that I want to see. Between ROH TV and NJPW World you can pretty much get as much AJ Styles as you could if he were a top guy in WWE only with good wrestling. And you can see him live at ROH once or twice a year if you live somewhere.

Joe's gone, Storm sounds like he might be next. I think we're at like 2004-5 for longest run in the roster with Eric Young. Or is he gone too? I don't what this dumb show.

I'm not sure how much to make of Storm's tweet - I was under the impression that he was one of very few people that signed a longer-term deal. (even though this article says 'more to be announced' I don't think anyone else besides the guys listed is on a multi-year contract)

Grado is probably the most mainstream wrestler in TNA, at least in the UK that is.

It sure is too bad that TNA isn't a UK promotion, though at this point they might as well be.

Well a dude came out to Shawn Michaels' music on Take Me Out on ITV on the weekend so it's only fair one of our greatest assets gets to use one of Madonna's songs.

It wouldn't be the first time Grado's amazing ability at self promotion has carried a company. Bring back the tiny TNA house show ring and he'll feel right at home.

Hopefully while establishing a new kind of feudalism where the wrestler is allowed to farm the land around the castle in exchange for working dates on Impact.
