Hard to pick who'd win NXT. Have to be loyal first to our countryman Wade Barrett. But a few guys stand out and could have futures; Daniel Bryan, David Otunga, Heath Slater and Justin Gabriel.

I think Daniel Bryan is gonna have an awful record and still win it. His first feud will then be with The Miz.

I agree that a few of them could have futures though.

I knew all this would happen as soon as Hogan took over. Bring all his mates in Hall, Waltman, Nasty Boys (now left), I keep expecting Brutus Beefcake back anytime soon.

The thing is though a lot of younger TNA talent are actually getting better pushes now in recent months

The Pope - World Title Contender at Lockdown
AJ Styles - World Champ
Desmond Wolfe - Has impressed ever since he joined, especially against Angle, is in Lethal Lockdown match
Abyss - Was built up to be world title contender at Destination X
Beer Money - Had a tag team title shot at Destination X and are in Lethal Lockdown. Face or Heel they are great.
Jay Lethal - Was off for a while but is now back and getting a bit of a push
Doug Williams - X Division Champ
Kazarian - Now he doesn't have to be the Suicide character anymore he's a contender for the X Division Championship
Rob Terry (Global Champ)
MCMG - Have been number 1 contenders for the tag team championship recently
Amazing Red - Always putting on great X Division matches, was X Division Champion a few months back
Eric Young - Teamed with Hardy and RVD in a tag cage match a few weeks ago, is against Kevin Nash at Lockdown
Beautiful People (Knockouts Tag Team Champs)
Angelina Love (Knockouts Champ)

And I can see Samoa Joe getting a good push when he comes back.

TNA has also successfully been able to add Jeff Hardy, Mr Anderson, RVD, Shannon Moore, Brian Kendrick and Generation Me.

The Miz has been really impressive lately with his mic work. Good quality performances shine out from the WWE at the moment due to the sea of average amongst the rest.

Whats happened to Awesome Kong since she left TNA ? has she got the 60 day no compete clause ? would be good to see her in the WWE sometime in the future.

Re: The Wrestling Thread : Tue Apr 13, 2010 9:28 pm  

TNA is such a cringe worthy horrible bad excuse for a Wrestling promotion. Jeff Hardy & Shannon Moore are horrible in ring workers who probably botch more moves then they can land well, Anderson is as dull as dishwater and the storylines well....WCW 2000-end bad. The management are a joke, the 8 reasons to watch iMPACT videos were embarrassing and Dixie Carter laying into a reviewer for giving a TNA PPV a bad rep was unprofessional and uncalled for.

Kong requested and got an early release from her contract so she's able to compete. She's currently wrestling in the independants and wrestling for ROH in May.
