Angle. Sting, then Booker. Booker is a bigger star then RVD imo.. And although i love Cage, i'm doing my best not letting bias get in the way, Cage wasn't near the level of name value of the 4 i previously mentioned when he went to TNA. Maybe, but he was on the brink. |

Maybe, but he was on the brink. Also, Christian is more of a long term investment. While Angle, Booker and Sting are shorter term investments. Angle probably should have retired years ago due to his battered body, Booker T, if he does sign, probably won't go more than a year seeing as he's got other things going on as well and Sting will probably be gone within the next year due to his age. Christian on the other hand will very likely be around for another good 5 years or so if he plans to stay with TNA. |

Both very valid points and i'd agree, especially Cage being a long term investment.
But if you look at it in a casual viewers sense (as i'm trying to do), he really wasn't that big of a deal to the others. While Angle, Sting, Booker were all multi-time world champions, Cage is a guy that in WWE never surpassed the IC Title (unfairly or not).
I would however, much rather have Cage stay in TNA then Sting and Angle.

I would however, much rather have Cage stay in TNA then Sting and Angle. Christian got up to main event status with his feud with Cena. (Though it didn't last long) He also got beat a few times by Batista. Booker is right below Angle. I would say: Angle, Booker, Christian They all came almost directly from WWE while Sting is an old hack who does come in 4th place. Book also came off from beating the shit out of Cena which is good |

Can Booker T even use that name in TNA? I really hope he doesn't go there but I know he will.

Sting might be an "old hack"... but he represents WCW. During the monday night wars, at its peak, Nitro was drawing 4/5's and Raw was drawing 3/4's consistently... considering over half that audience no longer watches "mainstream wrestling".. It's a lot of fans that only remember Sting as one of the best wrestlers in the U.S. (popularity wise).
I'd guess that Sting probably has the biggest legion of fans that soley started watching TNA because he turned up.

I don't know how anyone could consider Joe as a "bign sign" when he signed with TNA. He was virtually unknown to the world except by the ROH, PWG, FIP and various other indy fans.
