I'm glad they didn't get Alpha Female. I much prefer seeing her in Stardom where her size works even more for her.I don't even think it's her size that makes her effective as a heel. While she's about the same size as ODS & Tapa, she just carries herself completely differently like how Rhyno did. You know, she just comes across as such a nasty tempered person in the ring that you believe that she wants to beat the shit out of people.

Tapa doesn't even have to be much bigger. Being about ODB's size is fine. She can still be intimidating. Brock Lesnar isn't the biggest guy around, but with the way he carries himself he might as well be 12 feet tall.

They seem to think she'll become the next Awesome Kong, but to me she feels much more like the second coming of Rhaka Khan.
She's awful in every way. How many submission wins has she got anyway? Lei'D Tapa my ass.

correct me if I am wrong, but wasnt Katie Lea/Winter one of the tallest girls on TNA? She was like 5'9? So if they didnt let go of her, wouldnt she be towering over Lei'd at this moment?

But guys, she wears an ass cape over another ass cape. That's double the ass cape. And she's so tall. Look at how tall she is. Taller than any of the Knockouts tall.
I can only imagine how much Tenay would cream his pants selling how tall Isis the Giantess if she wasn't pure shit in the ring and got signed by TNA a couple years ago.

It's just a really glaring flaw. Also because she's green as goose shit but that's another problem. Alpha Female had a tryout match, is a pretty good wrestler and is much more intimidating in the ring so why couldn't they sign her? I've heard (from here in fact) that TNA really liked Alpha Female and actually wanted to build the KO Division around her as a monster heel. Unfortunately, Alpha seemed to understand what that meant and asked for a contract with good pay. Turns out TNA didn't want her that badly and decided to kinda use Tapa. I'm sure the money they saved on that signing was well worth it. I heard the exact same rumor, though I heard it from Meltzer on the LAW and from the guys on WNL.

IT'S VINCE RUSSO!"? Seems like a tall order.

At this point, it seems like an albatross to even be in TNA, unless your name is Kurt Angle, Jeff Hardy, or Sting. Even guys like Joe, Aries, and Styles are getting pushed out, likely because they can make a lot elsewhere and can command a bigger contract as a result. That does not sound like a company that can last. Sadly, I totally agree with your post.
