Wasn't Angle partly responsible in convincing McMahon to sign Sylvester Terkay last year? I could have sworn that Angle was a big fan of Terkay and wanted to have him brought in to do a program with him in the future. Ever since then WWE released Angle, who went to TNA, and now WWE has released Terkay. Think TNA will bother with Terkay? Seeing as how Angle really wants to bring back shoot wrestling to the American wreslting mainstream, I think he could have some good matches with Terkay.

I cant see TNA hiring him or any of these people. They have too many as it is for a 1 hr show.

He's not that bad of a worker, at all. But he should only show up in TNA if he's dressed like his character from the mega-hit Slammed. The bookworm look looked really swell on him.

He just wasn't over in WWE at all. I don't see anything in him really.
Maybe if he went back to being the Predator.

I think Terkay's size is a nice set-up for an "Unstoppable Monster" who is also well trained in how to hurt people. His problem in WWE was being surround by people like Khali who fill (and boy do I mean FILL) the requirement for "big man."
I wouldn't mind seeing him on TNA. I just wonder if I cursed him since I made a CAW of him for my Smackdown Vs Raw 07....wait...I made a CAW of Tatanka, too! Dang it!

He looked awesome as Brody version 2.0
I'd love to see him with a sort of crazy man who can wrestle gimmick.

Terkay was a NCAA Wrestling champion, and didn't Kurt beat him in competition in '96?
If he goes back to the Predator gimmick, he'll do fine in TNA. They'll play up his MMA background too.

I was thinking last night during the show that it would be a good swerve to have Cage's mystery help be Terkay instead of Joe, like they were hinting at.

Joe wasn't hinted at by Cage/Tomko, only by the announcers. And we all know announcers never see any kind of "secret" coming. As for Terkay, I'm not sure the rules as far as having him appear on TNA television within weeks of his release, but I'm not sure it's allowed. I know he wouldn't be able to actually WRESTLE for TNA for 3 months, so that would kind of be hard to book a feud. Unless he got some kind of unconditional release with no strings attached like Angle got, but that seems unlikely.

So, they're really not doing the most subtle job at them suggesting it'll be a swerve, or Cage just playing mind games with Angle.

I like Terkay, the manbear has an aura of legitamacy...
Ahwell maybe he'll keep the swank jacket, and just be another Big man that makes abyss look small

That sounds like a great idea, althogh I think it's gonna turn out to be Scott Steiner. Even though Terkay was released, I bet he'll still be hit by the horrendous WWE 90-Day No-Compete Clause.

Not only does Angle like Terkay, but so does Joe. They trained together, and Terkay invented the musclebuster, and "loaned" it to Joe, if i recall correctly.

Terkey can't be there since the 90 days thing that most wrestlers have. Very few men that left the WWE didn't when released. AKA Raven, but I think Raven was the reason that the WWE does it now. Since Raven appeared the next TNA show after it happened.

The Kinnikuman version is more of a neckbreakerm than what Joe uses, plus joe doesen't leap into the sky when he uses it.
