We're definitely in some alternate reality wrestling shit these days. I just can't figure out if it's the best timeline or the worst because it seems to switch it up by the month. Yea, this is the weirdest shit
As I mentioned the early foundation of TNA is in WWE with guys like Joe, EY, AJ, Abyss, Dutt, Roode etc. These are guys that you presumed was going to be in TNA for the long haul and be the guys who lead the charge for that brand. They are now in WWE in a wide range of roles and it is sort of surreal as it still crazy sometimes to think AJ is being given a Legends Path in WWE
The crazy thing is the man who sort of started this trend of original TNA people jumping over to WWE in James Storm is not even there

Anybody associated with TNA's creative decisions getting any kind of position of power in WWE is the definition of failing upwards. It's an impressive feat to be so incompetent at your previous job that the biggest company in the world looks at you and goes "We gotta have that guy on the payroll!"

Sojay. Abyss. JJ. 2019 already off to a "things you wouldn't have believed in the beginning of 2018" start. All we need is CM Punk and HHH to hug in the ring and we know the apocalypse is coming Idk about y'all but i'm going to find Dean and Sam Winchester Then again all their friends die

JJ has been one of my guys since he debuted in Memphis. (Crazy old FanGirl here) I told my BFF that it was cool but kinda weird to have all these TNA guys in WWE.

With WWE having a whole second road team coming up next year, this makes sense. Who else produces right now? Michael Hayes, D-Von Dudley, Dean Malenko, Jamie Noble, Tyson Kidd and Jason Jordan? Jordan is a producer? Explain why his deadbeat dad got treated like a jobber at Rumble

I'd rather see if there is any sort of way to end up in Gensokyo. As long as I don't do something so stupid that I get eaten by that cute but not very bright little girl who runs around in her own bubble of darkness I should be fine.

I can see parading Jarrett out in some version of his old character for those “nostalgia” shows, gimmick battle royals, and maybe even a rare match if he is up to it. But as a full time roster member, no way. I still say a segment with Elias writes itself, and I can easily picture some little tongue-in-cheek moment between him and Angle or AJ.

So... Vince overhead Hunter discussing the new strategy of hiring any standout performers on the indie scene before AEW or ROH could lock them in and was all "YEAH WE NEED TO SIGN UP DOUBLE J AND HORNSWOGGLE PAL" and nobody could talk him out of it.

I do love the idea of them thinking "you know what will really bring people back, what kind of shake up people really would love to see, bringing in Jeff Jarret!"

Arn Anderson, Fit Finlay, and Adam Pierce are as well. Matt Hardy was training to be one but don't know what happened with that.

Can't stand his in-ring persona but as far as running the company I'm glad it's him.

Nah, there's plenty of burned bridges still out there for the WWE to help mend. I mean, there's Nailz. And, uhm...Nailz.

Guy is a third generation talent who literally grew up in the business. Good move for all. And it's great that he's gotten himself together enough to get this opportunity.
