Compare his matches in WWE and in TNA when they had better agents to later in his run when he had free reign and they turned into psychology-less finisher spamming. He was still technically great up until his health issues caught up with him, but the matches were poorly put together. The missed moonsault. Stolen finishers. He needed a filter. It's not a negative, that's what agents are there for. Now he's healthy, there's a possibility he'd put things together with more clarity mind. Who were the better agents in WWE? What agents did TNA have around the time? Genuinely curious. When Kurt arrived, WWE had Patterson, Brisco, Garea, Lanza. Later they got Arn, Dean Malenko, Johnny Ace (who's agenting is a lot more popular than his talent relationing). When Kurt first went to TNA, they had Dutch and Jarrett pulling double duty, Savio, Cornette too. Later they got D'lo, Al Snow did a lot. All fine (although Al has a poor reputation in this regard) but a significant step down in terms of experience and track record. What is notable here though is that guys could also go against the way the matches were laid out if the mood took them, with zero consequence. Lance Storm spoke about this when referring to the consultation work he did for them. The Naturals did an exceptionally stupid and nonsensiscal spot. They were told this was stupid and said they knew but decided to do it anyway.

-Page- dude was doing scripted matches when nobody else did that stuff and got bashed for it, but it's the prevalent style now. Plus he is a great lesson at both "never too late to find what clicks, if youre good enough youre young enough" and at health & wellbeing with his yoga.
-Roberts for promos, for psychology and also as a counterpoint/companion to Page as a cautionary tale about how the business can break you, and how to then turn it round.
-Raven for character & creativity, even now his mind buzzes away with ideas, he'd be a brilliant character coach.
-Regal for the complete package coaching, his wrestling knowledge is encylopaedic, his ability to do the little things is second to none, and he can cut any type of promo. There's a reason they have him in NXT, because he is a treasure trove of knowledge.

If he keeps his demons away, Hall would be a good shout.
There have been a few stories over the years of him helping guys with characters, maybe he could have that Dusty like role of seeing what someone would be good at and bringing it out of them which is something that really suffered when he died.

Always thought well of Joey Mercury and was happy to see him as an agent, considering some difficult years. I know he parted ways awhile ago and don't know why. He's still young enough to teach and still be in the ring with them.
