The only thing I could possibly see for Shannon Moore is a Tattoo show on the Network, thats a huuuuuuge stretch though. He's marginal in talent and has been pretty much exposed by CM Punk. It's hard to come back from that, IMO. Everybody else would be a good choice.

The only people I'd really like to see are Pope and James Storm... I don't think Bobby Roode would be used well. I do think that Storm could be a serious player in the midcard (his accent could be a hindrance) and Pope could be all sorts of gold in a multitude of roles.

So essentially, they're interested in bring back talent they had, but mess up with?

I thought Shannon Moore only got hired by a company that Jeff Hardy already worked for. Sort of a new generation Ed Leslie, if you will.

I think Joe ends up in the WWE at some point, but it will probably be too late by that point. Basically, Tazz all over again.

i really wanna see AJ Styles in the 'E, but he'd definitely need to bulk up. Plus it'd be a nice lil F U to TNA for constantly puttin him to the back burner anytime an ex-WWE got signed, while he had the company on his shoulders.

Hey WWE, you HAD Morgan and Pope. If you knew how to book them they might not have got to TNA.
Silly WWE.

- Recent online reports have suggested that WWE is interested in signing several talents from TNA once their contracts with the company expire. Courtesy of PWTorch, here is a breakdown of the rumored names and if WWE is interested:
* Samoa Joe - There is no interest from WWE.
huh? if the WWE is uninterested then why would he be on a list of people WWE is interested in? This makes 0 sense and as much as I hate the term I gotta call NEWZ |

Ok, long rant here, but I think a lot of the guys the WWE sign, then release, then look to re-sign a few years later (like Morgan and Pope) they do intentionally so they could get more experience and be more well rounded. 10-20 years ago most of the wrestlers the WWF would sign would have already worked in several territories or indies, some experience in Japan or Mexico, etc. and you usually knew from the moment you signed someone whether they were gonna be a main eventer, a mid-carder or a jobber. You knew their skills and limitations, what could change and what couldn't, and they were basically ready to go out of the gates.
Nowadays a lot of the guys the WWE signs are signed straight from the pro wrestling camps after their trainer puts in a good word for them, or straight off the street (as near as I can tell Matt Morgan and The Pope had no indie experience before showing up in WWE developmental). They're sent to developmental where they spend about a year, developing a very basic character and learning a very basic wrestling style. Then they get called up to the WWE where they might show some moments of brilliance, but for the most part there lack of experience immediately shines through and they fall apart outside their comfort zone. If the WWE thinks they have genuine potential but are still way too green to be on the big show, they either have two choices -
1. Keep them in a background/support role on the WWE as they improve and give them a real push a few years down the line. This can backfire though, as usually when they are fully ready for the push, their credibility can be seen as shot by fans and are not taken seriously (for the longest time this was Mark Henry's problem).
2. Let them go and hope they have the desire to keep going in the business and find new places to work, improve and figure themselves out. Of course this can lead to hard feelings and guys who might've been worth something burning out before they can prove it.

The top 3 guys I think could make it in WWE from TNA are Matt Morgan, Magnus, and Elijah Burke.
I'd really like to see the 'E snatch them up.

While I still think Morgan is a clumsy lug, it'd be interesting to follow what they'd do with Magnus. Elijah Burke would even better be if they have him continue to be a foil to CM Punk. Too bad they wouldn't do that, so... |

This makes no sense to me, why would they not be interested in a person based on how they were pushed. Because the only reason they'd want him is to keep him from being a big star in TNA. Not saying it's true, just saying it doesn't not make sense. |

The list seems made-up. Since when is WWE interested in bringing in people as tag teams???

I find the Samoa Joe thing doubtful honestly, if only because of the success they've had with people like Punk. Plus the guy has plenty of TV experience and they could bring him straight to the roster as a result. Not to mention his buddies are the top two guys in the company. Have you seen Samoa Joe recently? It's like he completely stopped caring. I could see losing interest in him based on that. Gee, I wonder why.... Oh, here it is: |

Jesse Neal as developmental prospect in FCW...makes no money, gets hurt and nobody does anything more than give him aspirin...doubtful but I'd laugh for a week.

Would like to see Burke/Dinero get a shot. He was pushed for a while in TNA then they backed-off. Dude is money, WWE really dropped the ball here the first time.
Roode is really impressing me, could be a big star in the E. Beer Money is a great old-school tagteam. Don't know if the E is committed enough to tag-wrestling to bring them in together.
Wouldn't be surprised to see the Dudley's get a last run. They are in great shape.

I've always wanted the WWE to sign Alex Shelly and basically have him be Kevin Nash's star struck lackey, EXACTLY like what TNA did years ago. It will never happen in a million years but that's one angle rehash I could totally get behind.
