Re: WWE
All TNA need to do now is to rebrand to ''WWE Has beens'' or ''New WCW'' and that them.

lol I thought that as well when I found out they've also signed Eric Bischoff. Rumour is they're also planning a monday night show to go up against Raw.
By the way, any ideas which other big name is in partnership with Hogan and Bischoff right now? Wooooooooo....
Now he would be a massive signing for TNA.

Re: WWE
Hrmmm I have my doubts about Ric Flair making the jump, his youngest son, Reid, has a development deal with WWE and him going over to the 'competition' may prejudice that.
Doesn't mean it's impossible of course but a consideration in Flair's thoughts perhaps.
Hogan jumping over doesn't surprise in the slightest. I hope it's not to compete, with how slow Hogan was last time I saw him just reeling off a couple of spots would take an hour now. Be seriously hard work for anyone having a match with him trying to put him over too.

Re: WWE
He's never been a good worker, I'd be surprised if he could get his leg high enough for a legdrop now. But there's no denying his name still has huge drawing power.
I just wonder how TNA will cope with both him and Russo onboard.

As opposed to the HHH show? I prefered WCW to WWF and now I prefer TNA to WWE

Re: WWE
TNA's booking is a joke and always will be with Russo as a writer. I watch it on Bravo for a few weeks and it seemed there were more interviews and backstage skits than actual wrestling. I can never get my head around the 6 sided ring and it's true a lot of their top workers had their best days in WWE.
Vince's show isn't perfect but at least the storylines tend to make more sense. The booking is almost always spot-on and character development is actually used. I hear what you say about the HHH show (when Vince goes it'll be him and Stephanie running the whole thing) but he has a good wrestling mind, he knows the business well.
Although it's being said the only reason Sheamus got drafted to Raw was because he's Hunter's gym buddy out on the road...

There are far to many mass factions brawling away at the moment which is Russo's style, I think he and Bischoff spin between genius and madness, they were killing the WWF in the monday night wars, I think the WWF had one ratings night success in three years! Then they went and spoilt it all with the finger poke of doom! I don't think there are that many has beens on the show either, only Scott Steiner and Nash, Stings still got it and Booker who is well past it has quit to go back to the WWE.

Re: WWE
Forgetting Kurt Angle? Mick Foley?
I can't see how Russo will be able to work while Bischoff and Hogan are pulling strings. Dixie Carter obviously fancies making TNA the new WCW but she doesn't realise they only won the monday night ratings for so long is because as a company the continued to deficit-spend year after year. TNA just doesn't have that sort of cash.
Get a major broadcasting giant behind them, put them in the middle of a large Disney studio, get a show on monday night and hire some ex-WWE staff and it might work.
And it looks like they're on their way to acheiving all that.

Oh yeah Foley, I did forget about him and the Dudleys but Angle is hardly past it, Russo and Bisch will be fine, dunno what they are going to do with Hogan though, as for the rest of your post, I pretty much agree with it and can see it happening.

Thanks God I did not like that old HBK (The 1990's one) look the WWE give him when he went to Smackdown last year.
