AL Snow doesn't fit into the MEM mould, he'll be like the paul roma of the horsemen. I'm still lukewarm of Scott steiner being there too. I like them just nash,sting, angle and booker. I kinda agree about Steiner - but I think it works for the "hitman" role. It might not be the best choice but it could've worse lol. |

I'd rather see Alex Shelley in the MEM... we need some more talent on the heel side besides Angle. In TNA, Alex Shelley and anything involving the main event do not go together. I say to keep the MEM as is. While they aren't the best group of actual wrestlers, the name recognition is what makes the group. I can see that happening. Although Shelley has never been a main event guy they could have that be one of the motivations for him to join MEM. "How sweet it was to hold the X Division gold...just imagine how much sweeter it would feel to have the TNA World Heavyweight Championship around that waist, Shelley." That sucks that they're not going to keep Al Snow around. It doesn't make since to have a one time run-in! TNA always does this...where's the continuety? Although I've always been a fan of Snow, I do agree that he isn't the right fit for MEM. However, he could have at least been some part of the storyline. A Snow/Foley feud in TNA would be awesome! |

Dear Jeff Jarrett,
Thank You!
- Sean
Seriously though, the only good thing that could come from Al Snow being in TNA is all the Al Snow jokes Mick Foley could make.

Nash just flat out can't really do much at this point. And with Booker, he gets annoying (in a bad way) and repetitive when talking. Plus, he seems to be getting EXTREMELY lazy in his matches. At least Steiner looks like he is trying. Plus, I think he is entertaining when talking. |

I say to keep the MEM as is. While they aren't the best group of actual wrestlers, the name recognition is what makes the group. Why can't they go together? Shelley has all the tools to be a main eventer in WWE, let alone TNA. Kurt Angle and the MEM could take Shelley under their wing because unlike the Frontline, Shelley respects those who paved the way for him. They'd then do everything in their power to make sure Shelley gets the belt... motive? By getting the belt on a young guy who respects them, they carry their influence into the next generation and can rest easy knowing the business is in "good hands." Shelley can later turn on them because he no longer believes in their cause... it pretty much writes itself. |

I know this isn't helpful, but I just feel like he is missing something. But if the group is just going to be comprised of world champions, then Shelley obviously doesn't belong. But if they're going to break that, then adding Shelley would be okay I guess. I mean they may as well considering the TNA Originals group turned into the Mid-Card Mafia. |

Thank god this idea didn't go through.. I've always liked Snow, and would love to see him back. But not as part of the MEM. He just wouldn't fit in.

To be honest, the mystique of elite champions TNA was going for with MEM was already ruined with the additon of Scott Steiner... a quick stint as WCW Champion in 2000 doesn't justify being associated with guys on the level of an Angle, Booker, Nash, or Sting. |

This group is about more than just Heavyweight Champions...its Champions in anything i.e. Tag team, European, U.S., etc! But a one-time champion is still a champion! |

There isn't a problem with Snow being in TNA, but him being apart of the Main Event Mafia would ruin it, because they are suppost to be an all-World Champion stable.

Al Snow is a multiple time heavyweight champion. He would fit in great.

I think a Snow/ Cactus feud would make sense with their obvious history & have no problems with that.
However I agree with keeping Snow out of the MEM, keep it small & exclusive to stars or you end up like the NWO. I remember how that started & look how it ended, a ring full & only a few genuine stars the rest a bunch of jobbers diluting the group

i think a glorified jobber would damage the reputation of the MEM badly. thank god they didn't follow through on that.
