So I read that WWE released Maria, Paul burchill and Shane Helms. I would want Shane in TNA but I know squat about Burchill. Can someone seel him to me and do you think he'd fit in if they signed him?

I'm more interested in seeing Katie in TNA than Paul, however she didn't get released.

I really like Shane Helms, but I hated the Hurricane gimmick.

I can see Burchill in the British Invasion. Helms will probably be with Moore or something.

Yay on all three... Burchill had a lot of talent, I hope TNA picks up him they like the British over there. Hurricane, the gimmick probably made him one of my 10 ten favorite wrestlers ever. But with out it he's bland as hell. Funny didnt Hurricane get Burchill retired? Maybe we can see this team now. As for Maria she was one of WWE's hottest divas, but being a non wrestling diva, she probably wasnt worth what they were paying her.

Add Scott Armstrong - think of what he could contribute to TNA.
Well... Better on the mic than the World Champion. There's that.

Burchill could carry a broom to a watchable match. He'd be a great addition to TNA. Not sure if Helms has it anymore, but he'll likely show up.

I think if given the right opportunity, Burchill could become a main event star in TNA. Helms will probably team with Shannon Moore or something. I don't know if Maria's interested in going there, but it sucks WWE released her...

If they sign Shane Helms, they would just need to find Evan Karagias so that they can reform 3 Count.

If they sign Shane Helms, they would just need to find Evan Karagias so that they can reform 3 Count. And Tank Abbott. Burchill - Hell yes. Is TNA's roster too crowded? Yes, but they also have a lot of dead weight. Just imagine Burchill vs. Wolfe vs Williams. I know TNA hates wrestling now, but that would be a dream for any UK fan. Helms - Bring back the Vertebreaker!. But is he any better than Kendrick who they already have? But if Hardy is going to form his little group, then Helms will be part of it. Maria - I am shocked they released her, but it sounds like she wanted out. She can;t wrestle, but she was one of the few Divas that were over. Katie Lea - Whoops, she wasn't released. But I can't really see her there much longer with Paul gone. Daffney vs. Katie please.

All three of the main roster releases would be good pick ups. Helms is solid in the ring and has the Hardy Crew behind him which is a plus, Burchill is a beast in the ring and would be a great mid card, x or tag guy and, Maria is decent on the mic, in the ring and has more name value than Christy Hemme.

How big of a roster do we think TNA needs to fill 2 hours a week?

As I said in the WWE thread concerning this I really really hope Helms is picked up. When he was in WCW he was one of my favorites. I was a huge Sugar Shane Helms fan and have always wanted to see a return to that character. Nothing Helms did in the E ever interested me as much as his Sugar Shane run so I really hope he goes to TNA withthat gimmick.
Or anywhere really. Just bring back Sugar Shane

Let's kick it up a notch...if you want one of these WWE guys, who do you propose TNA fires to make room? I too will take all three. Since I now have to fire 2 men and a woman I am sacking Bubba the Love Sponge (can't take a promotion seriously if they allow someone w/ that name to work for them), Jesse Neal and Christy Hemme.

Paul and SHane, yes... Maria brings nothing to the table, except eye candy.

Burchill yes, the others, no. I can imagine Paul making more of an impact as his Ski Mask wearing ripper character than he has when wrestling as himself in much the same way Elijah Burke has when allowwed to us his Pope persona. He's unlikely to make as big a splash as Elijah, but I'd say he'd be a darn sight better for TNA in the long term than people like Val Venis have been.

I can give ya two for each: Burchill = Creed and Lethal Helms = Red and Kioshi/Suicide Maria = Val and Traci Brooks
