Savio has really doing all he can to get TNA over in PR. Recently he has got to tv stations and other media outlets to promote TNA. Savio also is trying to convince TNA to tour the island. At the last IWA show both LAX and Booker were apart of the show. LAX was very popular on the show and recieved a huge ovation. Savio also is trying to get some IWA workers jobs in the company.
Namely a wrestler by the named The Sheik. He was actually given the name by the original Sheik do to his style. He was discovered on the US indy circuit in the Southeast. Savio thinks a feud with him and Abyss could draw in alot of hardcore fans. Simliar to the Brody and Abby feud of the old days.
I must tell you I have seen The New Sheik before and man. This guy is a cross between Abby, Sheik(naturally),Brody,and Kevin Sullivan. He worked an indy show in Memphis and a fan called 911 on him. He was so violent that night he nearly got arrested.

You know if this "new" Shiek is as cool as he sounds I hope he comes to TNA. One thing that did make TNA stand out was that it felt like old school southern wrestling meets northeast hardcore wrestling and honestly making TNA more about this make me care about it again, oh and making the X-Division good again, and not a Cruiserweight division.

Hmm, he might be worth a look.

Savio is a PR wrestling legend and why guys like Hall, Vis, and others still work PR from time to time.
I really want to see TNA expanded beyond Florida
Puerto Rico's always been a wrestling hotbed, and have LAX main event against the MEM and you'll do some real good business
This New Shiek intrigues me.
now book him, Abyss, and Sylvester Terkay and i'll be happy

I remember hearing about that new Sheik being signed by TNA ages ago, but nothing ever came of it.

All TNA needs is one appearance from Hulk Hogan and a banner on the Ringside of the next CW.

TNA doing some PR shows could be a good idea, but it can be a really rough place. Watch out for fans with yellow liquid....

The funny thing about PR is that they support foregin talent big time. The Naturals was the hottest team on the island for 6months. When they had the IWA tag titles Savio has been a plus. TNA could use LAX in Mexico and PR to get a larger fan following in those countries. If they would've kept Ricky Banderas he could help get them over as well.

It's funny that LAX worked IWA the same time Team 3D worked WWC with Carlito and Primo.

Thunder and Lighting from WWC claims to have TNA contracts. I don't know how true it is if so Good for TNA!!! They're the best team in PR and have been since 1999. They could work any style a masked version of LOD. They have had some really good to great matches. I know they sell more merchandise then any team in PR.
