TNA literally has only around 10 superstar's under 30 that's just bad for a growing company.
Sonjay Dutt age 25
Jay Lathal age 22
Jimmy Rave age 25
Chris Sabin age 25
Samoa Joe age 28
Alex Shelley age 24
AJ Styles age 29
Petey Williams age 26
Eric Young age 28
Austin Creed age 21
WWE i'm pretty sure has over 40.

That's about proportionate to WWE when considering the difference in roster size... they just need to push the young guys they have and maybe sign a few more unknowns to build...

You know pisses me off? The fact that you said "under 30" like being 30 is old as hell. They have FOUR guys over the age of 40 & everyone else is under 40. And they are old? Our oldest guy that is currently on TV is Kevin Nash who is under 50. And you didn't even say anything about the guys like Robert Roode, Homicide, Kaz & so on that are only a few years older than 30. Seriously, this by far has to be the dumbest thing TNA has been bashed for. Why? Everyone gets older & we're all going to be "older than 30" one. AJ is going to be 30 in June of this year but is still one of the best wrestlers going, same thing goes with Joe. Kaz is 30 now but is still the future. What you don't understand is that some guys aren't in the business from the 20th birthday & you don't make it to the top in 2-3 years like Austin Creed & others did.

I tried to refrain from saying anything in TNA...just stop thread, but here we go again. It's every other thread..days after the fact, bitching and complain about anything..it's fkn annoying as hell and that's what makes me mad. It's one thing to make a thread to discuss something, like Does TNA have an older roster than WWE, then to blatantly just post to bash the company, which seems to be the trend...If this want the origianl posters intention then I apologize. But seriously, how hard is it for someone to post something they like about tna-Like the ONE post on here. |

Well, when a Hockey player gets to 32-34 ish, that's when they start considering retirement... in sports, 30's is pushing the age. it's normally better to retire in your 40's than to be like Flair... By the way, here is the full list of WWE Superstars below the age of 30 (Kofi Kingston and Lena Yada are Question Marks because of the fact Wikipedia did not have their age readily available) Ashley- 28 Beth Phoenix- 27 Brian Kendrick- 28 Candice- 29 Carlito- 29 Cody Rhodes- 22 DH Smith- 22 Drew McIntyre- 22 Jillian- 27 Katie Lea Burchill- 27 Lance Cade- 27 Maria- 25 Melina- 28 Mickie James- 28 Paul Burchill- 28 Paul London- 27 Randy Orton- 27 Trevor Murdoch- 27 Curt Hawkins- 23 Domino- 28 Eve Torres- 23 Festus- 24 Hornswoggle- 21 Jesse Dalton- 28 Jimmy Wang Yang- 26 Justin Roberts- 28 Kenny Dykstra- 21 Michelle McCool- 28 Shannon Moore- 28 Zack Ryder- 23 Armando Estrada- 29 CM Punk- 29 Elijah Burke- 29 John Morrison- 28 Kelly Kelly- 21 Layla- 29 Mike Knox- 29 The Miz- 27 Kofi Kingston-  Lena Yada- |

Compared to WWE's roster of 106 people with 40 people under the age of 30 which equivilates to 38% of their roster so WWE has a statistically younger talent roster  BTW (To continue with my statistic knowledge) the average age in TNA is 33.5 Years Old... I'd do the WWE's but there is too many friggen people on their roster and I'm starting to get lazy... |

But seriously, how hard is it for someone to post something they like about tna-Like the ONE post on here. Actually there have been several TNA threads that deal with things other than negativity. There are several that have dealt with pics, news, angle ideas, etc. I know there are a fair share of negative ones also, but there are far more than the one you mentioned. Not trying to start nothing, just saying. You know pisses me off? The fact that you said "under 30" like being 30 is old as hell. They have FOUR guys over the age of 40 & everyone else is under 40.

Do you work for TNA or something? Once again, not trying to start anything but I've never seen anyone refer to TNA as "our" wrestlers or "our" show. |

So what TNA has and old roster. Hey, if you have some veterans then they could teach the young guns. Im sick of the horrible TNA rants on this board. |

Did u just list the freakin SD ring announcer? wow Well, considering the fact that he listed Austin Creed (Whoever the  that is, he isn't even on their roster page) and Justin Roberts is on the WWE roster page, I figured it only fair. I can understand the whole "Veterans are a good thing to teach the younger guys thing" except for the fact that no one seems to be learning much of anything considering the fact the Main Event scene is smothered with veterans and isn't giving any of TNA's younger talent a chance to develop into the Main Event Superstars of the future... WWE on the other hand has 2 of their younger stars as their centerpieces, they're world champions. I am, of course, talking about CM Punk and Randy Orton... meanwhile, Kurt Angle is their current champion (He's 39), Jay Lethal is the X Champ (22), Awesome Kong is Womens Champ (She's 30) and AJ Styles and Tomko are Tag Champs (29 and 31 respectively)... |
