Does anyone else think that a TNA feud between the TNA originals and the old WWE wrestlers would work? on one side you would have the likes of Styles, Joe and Daniels and on the other you would have Angle, Booker T, Christan etc. The feud would have some realism to it and the tna guys in particular could cut some passionate promos about being held back by the wwe "has beens".

Yeah in terms of the younger guys feeling that they are being held back by the over pushed, over exposed headliners.

Well it would maybe work. One of the problem with the New Blood vs Millionaire's feud was that there was no cooperation. You had basically everybody in WCW divided up within 2 different stables but when someone was getting beat down nobody else from their group would come out and help them. Bischoff was doing his thing. Russo was doing his thing. They rarely even interacted.

I vote no.
It was done in WCW. And WCW folded not long after. I'm not saying one caused the other. But it's still food for thought.

By that logic, no one should make movies about aliens trying to take over the Earth, because Ed Wood already tried that with Plan 9 From Outer Space, and it was a bad movie (though, hilariously so). So there.

The only way I can see this kind of storyline working is that you intially include fairly recent heels (Tomko, Angle, Black Reign, Team 3D, Matt Morgan, Rellik, Christian) against long time TNA wrestlers who are babyfaces (Kaz, Sabin, Abyss, Shelly, Eric Young, Killings, AJ, Petey, AMW).
But then the leader of the Originals starts to become more paranoid and power hungry, rejecting the likes of a Rhino, the Steiners, Gail, and Booker because of where they come from, and that because they can't be trusted. The likes of Joe and Booker get sick of the whole conflict, and the MCMG as well as Christian are thrown out of their groups.
Finally ending the whole story in a three way feud between the heel team led by Angle (with 3D, Tomko, Morgan, VKM, Reign/Rellik) the tweener TNA originals (AJ, XXX, AMW, Killings, Team Canada minus Eric Young) and the babyface mix of old and new guys. (Joe, Booker, MCMG, Nash, Abyss, Christian, Jay Lethal).

To do this they'd basically they'd need to do a restart of the whole company like when WCW did a big restart and kicked off the millionairres vs. New Blood. That was pretty cool except it seemed like the old guys came off as the faces and totally ruined the concept. TNA would probably face a similar problem. The way they book the company not like it would matter anyways since I never know who's suppossed to be the face and heel in half their angles.

They should have done it when Kurt Angle first came in. If they would have had him come in and trash TNA and all the people in the impact zone calling it the minor leagues and stuff like that, it would have been great.

See, with the Joe promo at the PPV, that's what I thought they were going for, but...then Impact aired, and now I'm confused. Joe wants all the TNA "wrestlers" to take out the "superstars", so he teams with Nash and Booker??? But...I thought Booker, and then Nash, but wait...damn it, my head hurts.

Match wise, yeah. As a story, since it's recreating new blood vs M. club w/ vince russo in charge, maybe not. Still, I would like a Rhino vs sabin match. For some rason, that intrigues me.

I thought the same exact thing. It seems like the promo was just something they used in attempt to not look dumb when one of their main eventers no showed. I kind of feared a TNA Originals (vs) TNA Superstars feud since I feel as though that would need careful planning so it wouldn't bomb, but to have Joe cut that promo and then team up with Nash and Booker again doesn't make very much sense.
