Honestly, who's left at this point?
WWE has recently had a purge of the indies and Japan with their signings of Drake Younger, Sami Callihan, KENTA, Steen, Devitt, etc. All of them being talents that most would have thought they'd never pick up.
TNA signed The Wolves, and have done quite well with them overall, but what other big name on the indies or in Japan could they realistically do something with?
Ricochet seems happy where he is; Adam Cole signed a ROH contract fairly recently and won't be going anywhere for awhile. And when he does, I say WWE is the likely option for him; Elgin is working everywhere these days, except for Japan, and his goal seems to be to make it there being heading anywhere else.
I can't think of any other "Big names" that they could sign.

Please, TNA's going much bigger than those stars. Someone who people will instantly fall in love with that'll bring TNA to the stratosphere. {Spoiler}It's Tatanka.

A few people I think could work well in TNA:
1. Facade - would fit very well in X-division
2. MASADA
3. AR Fox
4. Chuck Taylor

A few people I think could work well in TNA: 1. Facade - would fit very well in X-division 2. MASADA 3. AR Fox 4. Chuck Taylor Facade is strange. He's got a unique character and a exciting style, but I can't remember a single good match he's actually had. He tries too much and it often fails -- much like Sabu. Way too botchy I think, but if TNA wanted a version of Sin Cara they should have put him under a mask and watched the magic happen I like Masada a lot, he's definitely one of my favourite "hybrid" wrestlers but I am really not sure how he'd do in a company like TNA -- unless they had a hardcore division of sorts, I see him being out of place and not being used much. Fox is a great option though. Probably the best fit for the X-division who's currently not in the division. Taylor is another great option. He's easily the funniest wrestler today in my opinion and he can also wrestle a great match! I am not sure how his comedy would come across to larger crowds though because a lot of it is crowd-based interactions, which is much harder to get across to a larger and TV audience.

I also found that his work with Chance Prophet was good. I do agree that at times he tries too much, but I can also see him becoming a huge face in the X division. He would definitely be different than anyone WWE has, which is a good thing. I really want to see TNA push the X division more, hence my choices of Facade and AR Fox.

All those guys are good but they need to pick up Chris Masters and John Morrison/Hennigan.

Luther Reigns, who immediately is given a push that directly mimics his brother Roman's push in WWE (TNA try to sell him as Roman's legit brother).

Signing the rights over to WWE. Might even pocket more than tree-fiddy if they're lucky. I hope I'm wrong.

I'd like to see Masters or Morrison, but I got a bad feeling the next signing is the contract that sells the company.
Although that could be for the better if somebody with a damn clue buys it.

Whatever it is, it won't be a new deal with Spike.
