Yeah, I don't know where the hell people are getting that 7 years today he was hired in 2007.

-Signed to developmental in 2006
-Vignettes aired starting 9/6/2006
-Debuted 10/16/2006
-Fired 9/2/2007
-REturned 3/31/2008

Not a single one of these dates line up with 7 years today. He hasn't even been hired for 7 years since his return, and it's been more than 7 years since his original debut.

Edit: Well that explains it... He has been employed for 7 years today TOTAL

quote:

Actually the number is correct when you consider that JTG debuted in October 16th 2006 and was then released 2 September 2007.
He then rejoined March 31st 2008 and has, as the saying goes, been still employed.
So: 2/Sep/2007 - 16/Oct/2006 = 321 days Plus: 31/Mar/2008 -> 13/May/2014 = 2234 days
321 + 2234 days = 2555/365 = 7

Yeah more companies should desire to follow the TNA model of always getting the heat on the heels, over and over again before attempting to do anything with the babyfaces. I honestly don't see why more don't.

With Payback looking like its gonna be poo poo, I hope MITB goes better. In my ~*~heart of hearts~*~ I want Cesaro to win the case, have it create tensions with Heyman-Cesaro-Brock, have Brock take the title off Bryan at Summerslam (if they keep him with the title), then have Cesaro cash in on him at Summerslam after a hard fought match. Heyman can try to stop him, Cesaro will swing Heyman, instantly turning face, then beat Brock. Brock only loses by virtue of having the poo poo kicked out of him beforehand, Cesaro goes face, instant program for Cesaro, Championship not hindered by a limited appearance holder and everything works out fine forever the end

Slight problem, now we're down another heel. It will also mean that Bryans entire championship run was beating Kane once, getting injured, coming back for a month or two and then losing to Lesnar.

Also I don't see how it would cause tension, Heyman's had other clients before, so far Cesaro has been entirely loyal, unless Brock is the clingy boyfriend I don't really see that causing tension.

I can see there being no tension and Cesaro doing it anyway.

EDIT: Can I also say it's annoying listening to some people say stuff like "Crowds cheering Barrett, turn him face" while I agree that Barrett is an entertaining guy, We are down quite a number of heels, we should really be trying to elevate some guys as heels.

Instead of doing another 6 man tag they should pad out the card for Payback with 3 singles matches between Evolution and Shield. Any permutation you'd get out of that would be an acceptable main event for a B ppv.

Okay I agree BUT

The idea was going to be for the Shield to go over, clearly, so do all 3 members go over? doesn't that mean Triple H has to job, which he was going to do for Reigns at Summerslam supposedly, but I would think if they continue wanting that at SS it wont happen at Payback.

So if not Reigns/Hunter, is it Rollins or Ambrose. Rollins would make the most sense since he's constantly "SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKER"ing Trips whenever he's doing anything. If they want to save to Reigns/Hunter would Rollins go over? I can imagine a best-of-three series essentially where the overall winner is who wins 2/3 matches.

I dunno, it's a little bit more complex to work through than the former "Batista eats the pin because he's going away."
