Remember when we wanted new stars?

[El Cokehead del Knife Fight]

Well f*** you, Gunner has a world championship title shot this year. Take your new star and enjoy it.

Look, its not like Gunner is going to win. He is just someone for Magnus to beat. After Magnus beats him, he will be right back at the bottom again, happily riding James Storms coat tails.

This gives TNA time to set up a real opponent for him down the line. Daniels isn't really doing anything, Kaz could take over the feud with Abyss easily.

[Clawley Race]

New stars...not just Gunner in a title match...

[Non Banjoble Tokens]

[Kayfabe FAN don't want none]

f***ing Gunner.

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

And guess what, his opposition could be Magnus!

Magnus vs. Gunner. MAIN EVENT TNA TITLE MATCH.

[Malcolm]

I didn't want new stars. I just wanted good stars.

[TK The Friendly Robot]

Meh, Gunner's growing on me. I enjoyed him with Storm and after tuning in last night and seeing his performance as grizzled moment ruiner I took a shine to Gunner.

[evilone]

Its kind of obvious they gonna eventually setup hardcore redneck vs aristocratic snob fued between James Storm and Magnus

uggggggggggggghhh

I hate when people do this.

If I'm hungry and I complain I want a meal, I'm not going to eat a dead rat on a plate just because it's the first thing someone hands me.

^nor should you. But pause to consider for a moment that they have run out of ex WWE guys to push. Angle is a TNA guy now and is doing place holder tag matches with no world title implications, Hardy is gone, Hogan gone, Foley gone for yrs, no nasty's, no fat hardy, no Val veins, no hall no Nash no Waltman. They have another homegrown TNA star as world champion. Bobby Roode and James Storm got more camera time last night than angle. gunner...I'm sort of with you. He never moved the needle for me really but this is an angle that will be over soon and it will either help him or hurt him. If it hurts him they will be justified to at least try one more thing with a guy they spent time and money on. After that if he doesn't pop, he likely will turn into an Eric Young(not comedy face, but just a place holder with little TV footprint). Daniels and Kazariana, Abyss, Spud etc etc. all thee above are TNA homegrown guys. So we have what we have asked for. As for the quality? Time and experience makes talent better. Magnus started out all he had was potential. Time and experience made him ready. Not saying gunner will be world champion one day, but given time and experience to see what works and develop something, he could be a star someday.

[chazraps]

Could this mean that Gunner's on his way out of the company?

[toodarkmark]

It feels like the ECW revival and Bobby Lashley getting a title shot. It's like, I dont care, this is stupid, this is not what I want.

[Hurbster]

I would hardly call Gunner new anymore.

[Instant Classic]

Good thing it's just TNA.

[tenshi]

Well, he got a push before and it was teased that he would have feuded with Crimson. We know how that ended for "f***ING Gunner".

Or a star.

[ZombieElvis]

As other have said Gunner's title shot is just going to set up a James Storm/Magnus feud.

I'd like to see Storm come out to stop EC III or Spud from costing Gunner the match with Magnus, but in the end Gunner still loses. Storm gets a title shot a couple of week later and the same thing goes down, but rather than trying to help Storm we see Gunner turn on him and side with Magnus.

The TNA roster is thin right now and they will have to use what they got. Thanks to Punk, Daniel Bryan and The Shield making it big in WWE the top indy guys are going to stay away from TNA because being a "TNA guy" hurts their shot at getting a WWE contract.

[Straight Edge Scrotum]

Let's just wait and see where this goes.

So, does anyone else see blonde Keanu Reeves every time that scene plays?
