TNA gains a Barber...

[Trent Valentine]

– Former WWE talent Ed Leslie (Brutus Beefcake) said on the Miami sports talk radio show The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz Friday that he’s joining Hulk Hogan in TNA Wrestling. He noted they’re going to be “starting from scratch and going nWo style.”

....ugh

THEY: The Heavy Egomaniacs (of) Yesteryear

Wow....it took him this long to join? I wonder if the nasty boy are making a comeback too along with hall and x pac.

[A Platypus Rave]

my first reaxtion was Ed Leslie says a lot of things...

but I could see this happening sadly.

[Deleted]

YES!!!!!!!!!

Surprisingly from what I've seen of him over the last year hes still in great shape

[Spankymac is sick of the swiss]

........I'd laugh, but damn, this one is so stupid on TNA's part that it isn't even funny.

[cakewalker]

Beefcake is still ripped!

[Fiddleford H. McGucket]

The Man with No Name and the Fed with No Clue........It's perfect

[ani]

Forget Beefcake, sign Dan Le Batard!

BAM!

[Brian Suntan]

I'd laugh if not only Ed Leslie just spoiled TNA's earth changing 'THEY' mystery, but also if he played an active part in it.

But still, there's more than a bit of 'Honky Tonk to TNA' about this as well.

He better win the Global Legends TV Title or I riot

[Evilution E5150]

BROTHER BRUTI IS THEY!!!!!!!!

[ThatIndyMark]

What's next, they going to sign David Flair too?

[Paul]

I don't care what anyone says, I'll mark for this if it happens.

[Andrew is Good]

I remember Hogan did RVD radio, and said the reason he didn't get Brutus Beefcake signed was because he didn't just want to bring his friends in to bring them in. And he claimed that he brought the Nasty Boys in because he felt they would have good matches with Team 3D. I consider 3D one of the best teams ever, and they couldn't carry the Nastys.

And to be honest, I would have preferred if he was brought in, if Hogan had to choose between the Nasties and him because, he's actually got himself back in shape and isn't just hoping that, he did stuff in the past, maybe he could be brought in again.

I'm not on the fence on this, like, he shouldn't be brought in. But, on the bright side, at least he's trying to up his game. That's admirable. But again, they're bringing in people that may not have the longest shelf life. Especially since he's going to be someone pushed on television, where as Robby G/Rob Echos of the Shore is a young, up and coming talent, with no national tv experience, and he may be pushed to the side, because he's a talent that hasn't had previous experience. Or Amazing Red, who doesn't get much tv time. Or anybody. They're not looking to the future, and that's incredibly bad.

*If* this is true, then it's retarded.

Brutus Beefcake hasnt been on TV in roughly 10-11 years, and hasnt been relevant in about 17 years

EDIT: Who's next? Greg Valentine? Volkoff?

[forgottensinpwf]

Because the Nastys was such a wise decision, that this will be so much better.

Facepalms suck.

I'm actually surprised at that, too.

So will Beefcake have his bag of coke?
