The only thing VKM has done lately is be managers for Roxxi Leveaux and lose to MCMG.
Theyre ruining TNA!

Booker's a good acquisition for them. Granted, he'd be a lot better for them if they dropped Black Reign, VKM and a few others. Why does everyone always throw in VKM when they've had like...one match in four episodes of Impact. Is that five minutes of TV time really that stomach churning? Honestly? Yup. Dudleys too. |

It was when they killed the MCMG in only 2 frickin moves Oh, and it was also kinda annoying when they needed to f***ing announce Roxxi Leveaux |

This kinda sucks to be honest...we really didn't need another major superstar like Booker T in TNA. By the way, is his name even Booker T anymore? Booker's a good acquisition for them. Granted, he'd be a lot better for them if they dropped Black Reign, VKM and a few others. As I've suggested before, TNA needs to release one ex-WWE star every time they hire a new one. |

why does it matter how many guys on the roster worked for the wwe? i personally don't care, if they are doing well in tna i like them. i don't dislike people just because they worked somewhere else. that has very little to do with my taste for the show.

My comment about former WWE guys had nothing to do with the talent of the performers, because there is talent there. No, it doesn't matter, exactly, that they're former WWE guys. What matters is that they have abandoned, it seems, any attempts to put one single homegrown talent at the main event level and keep them there. This was a crucial mistake of WCW, and led to people jumping ship, that's the only connection I'm tryi8ng to make. Those who forget history, as Russo and Mantel have apparently done, are doomed to repeat TNA is NOT doomed by any stretch, but I just want to see somebody, anybody, who's been working in TNA, established themselves as a TNA "guy" get a prolonged spot in the upper card, ya know? |

samoa joe has a prolonged spot on the upper card. he could easily be considered main event. just because he hasn't won the big belt yet doesn't mean he hasn't been elevated.

Yeah, I think they are pushing home grown talent pretty well right now.
Christian, one of their main eventers and a ex-WWE, put over Kaz.
Plus, Joe, another main eventer, is working a solid program with Roode, a home grown capable of making it in the main event.
Plus, that's not considering the fact that MCMG went over Team 3-D in what was an amazing match. They seem to be being pushed hard now, and are crazy over.
Sure, there's room to work, but it's a heck of a lot better than it was not to long ago.
And on the topic of Booker, I'm excited that he's there. He put on a decent match, and looked like he was having fun out there. Work him towards the main event for a while, as most crowds are going to want, and then work him with the up and comers like they are doing with Christian.

I think it's fine that Booker is in TNA. He's someone who has alot of upside to him, and is a big enough name where he can help put people over. Now, had he won the belt I definatly would have had an issue with it, but hopefully they do the right thing and use to establish new main eventers, and not just be booked to dominate. Although, if they bring in Stevie Ray THAT'S when this idea goes to hell, and I definatly wouldn't put it past them

Ha raw. What next? ... A rehash of Christian vs Booker T? Hey, if this leads to a reemergence of the "Peep-a-Roonie", I wouldn't complain.  |

If Booker T isn't going to wrestle for Vince McMahon, I want to see him unemployed, broke, and homeless.

I should have added a sarcasm tag, since I probably mark harder for Booker than any other wrestler.
