Would You Rather Have Nigel

[Orange]

in NXT, and Danielson in TNA? I was thinking about this today, and seeing as they were arguably the two biggest ROH stars when they left to pursue TNA and WWE, would you rather have Danielson in TNA and Nigel on NXT? I really like what they are doing with Danielson now, but I don't know if he would really be a big deal in TNA or not.

Who are these Nigel and Danielson people?

Remind me of Desmond Wolfe and Daniel Bryan, but with worse names.

[BxB]

When they were both supposedly heading to WWE, I thought Nigel would be more successful because he was a lot more comfortable on the mic. But no, I wouldn't want to change anything. Wolfe seems to be doing alright in TNA, and Dragon has a whole show built around him.

[Unknown Thought]

No.

I like Danielson much more than Nigel...and I don't watch TNA. So even if it means a year from now AmDrag will be teaming with Yoshi Tatsu on Superstars, I'd prefer him in the E

[Above Average]

Not sure. Wolfe got a good start and is now floundering. Bryan has had a good start but may have the same happen to him.

[American Dragon]

I'd just rather have both in WWE, to be honest. I never really liked the idea of having Nigel in TNA, I had to get used to it over time, and even now I'm not fully comfortable with him in TNA, but he is doing fine there. To me it just seemed like he settled for TNA because he couldn't get through with the WWE, and that will bother me for as long as he's in TNA. Dragon just doesn't seem like a fit in TNA, I just can't picture Dragon working in TNA. I'd kill to have Nigel in WWE, while he is great in the ring, his mic skills would probably take him to the top quickly.

And if you think about it, it should be the other way around, Dragon in TNA for the wrestling, and Nigel in WWE for his amazing mic work.

Could not have said it better myself.

Meh, they're both in okay (not HUGE...just okay) shape now and seem like they'll have decent careers.

[Clash, Never a Meter Maid]

I'm happy with both of their progress so far, so I'm not bemoaning anything- but in theory, I would have switched them.

The average size of the TNA worker is smaller than WWE's, so Bryan could believably get a "Flair to WWF in 1991" monster push there. In WWE, despite his massive notoriety he's still up against a lot of established star power, so he's in the right role with NXT.

Wolfe's not in the doghouse, but he could have gotten a quicker push in WWE. I feel he's more of a "total package" than Bryan and has the sort of persona that could appeal to someone that hasn't watched wrestling before.

I once dreamt that Danielson was TNA champ and he had a weird braided ponytail haircut. I think this is his destiny.

for those who remember Kirk Angel....just for the hell of it. some MS Paint fun:

Wolfe is easily the better overall performer. Danielson, for as (allegedly) skilled in the ring as he is, just isn't a superstar prospect. He's too small, too goofy looking, and doesn't have the charisma to make up for it. He's Dean Malenko 2000.

Wolfe could be a WWE main eventer without question. He's on par with C.M. Punk in terms of overall skill (in-ring, on the mic).

Dude...I would mark like crazy for that teamup! Anyhow, I think both guys made the right choice for themselves, although I am worried that Nigel may be getting lost in the mix in TNHulk.

I was thinking that they told Nigel about the concept of NXT and how he was going to be a rookie and he told them to screw off because he had a guaranteed job with TNA working the main show. Daniels just went with the flow.

Nigel failed a physical though.

unfortunately nigel didn't pass the health screening due to his previous concussions. so he did the next best thing for himself and went to tna. i was very excited for nigel with his debut and build - and now hes just "on an off phase" time i guess, there will become a time where dragon is too and everyone will bitch about that lol. i felt bad for nigel when he didnt get into wwe - for whatever reasons,. i'm a huge fan of his so it was a blow (huge fan of both guys i should say). i wish they could have went to wwe together but i'll take them both where i can right now and where they're most happy at.

Oh I didn't know what. So we will never see him in the WWE?

You never know. He was in OVW for something like two weeks for a bit, so it almost happened before.

they say never say never when it comes to the wrestling business.
