The thought of a Sheamus/Joe feud makes me smile.

Bob Sapp - I somehow doubt he could pass a wellness test
Austin Aries - Tried out for Tough Enough but wasn't chosen. WWE's loss, honestly.
I wish they would try and sign Alex Shelley since he apparently can't exist in TNA without Chris Sabin.

Nigel might never wrestle again. hes got some really scary health issues. Not true. He booked for a match in like a couple weeks. If WWE really wanted half the names that was listed they have them. Daniels has had more tryouts in the late 90's earily 00s before TNA started then most guys. Him and Michael Modest. But they never signed them. I think Daniels was his size but then he is bigger then Rey Mysterio but now its his age I think more. Dispite how good he is still. Joe, if they wanted to signed him. He be there. But Joe does seem to care about wrestling like he did. For a guy who had great matches all year not long ago. To having like one I can think of this year. Is quiet the downfall. And it not like he been facing bad talent. It's just that he signed and then realized nothing changed. That he still being jobbed out. Hard to want to be good when they are not doing much with you. Styles never signed because TNA made him a cornerstone star. Which there is no garentee he have that in WWE. After his next contract is up there maybe a better chance only because he not used as a cornerstone talent at this time. But there is that on the road factor and he does have kids.

A Double and AJ seem to be the only ones left right now.

I for one am SHOCKED that they aren't pursuing Matt Hardy.

I'd really like to see Kenny Omega get a shot in the WWE. He's got talent and a marketable look.

Doesn't the E actually WANT Joe, but he keeps resigning with TNA like a jackass? I seem to remember this happening last time his contract came around. I'd love to see Muta come in for something. I haven't watched TNA for awhile, but AJ Styles had really grown into his heel role in Fortune before they turned face. He's got more charisma than previously applied to him, so maybe they'll actually show some interest in him next time. Can't really think of anyone else. Alex Wright was always a favorite, wish they'd have showed some interest in him. I dunno. to be fair to Joe, last time his contract was up he was still a top dog. then he re-signed, and then Bischoff and Hogan came in and booked him into oblivion so they could get Diet-Goldberg AKA Crimson over.

It's advertised as a retirement tour, though, so while he might be able to do a match in a few weeks, it's very likely that the health issues that sunk his WWE deal are ending his career.

Austin Aries, Davey Richards, Kenny King, Rhett Titus, Kevin Steen I did read somewhere they'd tried to sign Davey three times but he isn't interested because he'd have to give up touring the world.

A Double and AJ seem to be the only ones left right now. WWE has tried to sign AJ Styles at least twice. I remember the second time especially because he bragged on-air how he turned them down.

Have they ever at any point tried to sign Jushin Liger? Asked JR on Twitter once if Muta or Liger would ever get a short run and his reply was something to the effect of: "Muta's knees are shot and I have never heard of any interest in Liger."

I think Joe will end up in the WWE eventually. I remember Heyman tweeting something about how the WWE would be crazy to not take him and Joe retweeted him and showed some interesting. So I think it will happen.
I just worry that by the time it does it will be like Tazz in the WWE. It was pretty good at first but it was too late and he wasn't the same.

Christopher Daniels seems like a very marketable guy. WWE needs another fresh "supernatural" talent around now that Undertaker is more than semi-retired. As for Samoa Joe, WWE has been able to successfully push a spiky-haired, pasty-white ginger as a main eventer. I don't see why they should be so timid on a guy like Joe. Yeah, he's different... but in my book, different is a whole lot better than generic. In addition to spiky hair and pasty skin, Sheamus is also built like a beast and actually looks motivated in the ring. They also pushed Umaga, who's not exactly a bodybuilder, but again, actually looked like he gave a s*** during his matches. Joe was one of the most explosive wrestlers period before TNA sucked the life out of him. I hate that people think he would be just as unmotivated if he got a WWE gig.

The Great Power Uti - Despite him being a legitimate legend they have no interest in him for some strange reason, although admittedly he does have to work on his selling. how dare people doubt the great power uti he beat the great power mike goshdarnit ;D

TONS of people wwe never went after. dating back to the 80's is just stupid. luger earlier, sting,vader. the list goes on and on.
also muta and most of japan never got a call either.
bison smith, johnny ace, stan hansen, the funks
they missed the boat big time and only signed them after the glory days were over or only put em in the hall of fame.
