In my opinion, the only thing that would really give TNA the major boost that they need is if a WWE veteran and top star of today who is seen as WWE loyal was to just ship.
Some may say Kurt Angle, but i don't think he is someone who was 'synonymous' with the WWE... i'm saying if HBK, HHH or Taker were to just ship.
That isn't going to happen any time soon tho

Oh dear god, no! Save that money and get better talent, like the Young Bucks. - Triple S Alright. Let's get the Young Bucks. A team most wrestling fans have probably never even heard of, and if they have heard of them, have never seen them wrestle. So, TNA signs the Young Bucks, and doesn't sign Hulk Hogan. Big mistake. Young Bucks will do nothing for the ratings, while Hogan=ratings. That was just a stupid statement on your part. |

What the  will the Young Bucks do? I think they'll certainly be better wrestlers than Hulk Hogan. Now, how about you answer my question? Who are the Young Bucks gonna draw?? PWG Tard Boy?? |

Yeah, and Hogan will draw a 2.0 rating... ...for one week. Just like Angle did. Just like Christian did. Then, it'll be back to the same. At least with the Young Guns, you get consistently good wrestling, not some washed up old man, trying to relive his glory days. |

They should've signed Jericho when they had the chance.

Dear Hulk Hogan, You are not that big name to shift the momentum. No one would care if you went to TNA, and you'd just drag the quality down. Stay away from TNA. Love, The Rest of the TNA Roster This my friend is like Rhodes & DiBiase...PRICELESS!!!!  |

Young Guns might be better wrestlers, but you can't honestly tell me that they would be a better pick up than Hulk Hogan.. Hogan's one or two times he draws a huge rating will be a lot better for business than the Jackson's ohh and ahh wrestling.. |

Why would they bring in the Young Bucks when Alex Shelley and Sabin arent doing much themselves.  Plus remember WCW made it big when Hogan "Crossed the Line" |

I dont know, maybe even 5 years ago it could help but Hogan isn't going to be able to do anything anymore in the ring I don't think. Just doesn't seem like it'd be worth the money he's asking.

I dont care how old Hogan is; he still draws fans everywhere he goes. Some nobody tag team isn't going to do that. Hell; TNA's own (AJ, Joe, Daniels, Shelley, Sabin...etc) can't get it done. What makes you think another nobody will get it done?? People don't watch wrestling for the actual wrestling anymore. They watch for the storyline, who's gonna do what, and/or who's gonna show up next.

My point of bringing in guys like the Young Bucks is very simple. Take AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels and Samoa Joe as an example:
These guys were borderline nobodies. I remember seeing Daniels at an independant show several years ago and me only knowing of him because the guys I went with worked security for the show and met him before it. Fast forward a few years later, he's busting his ass for NWA-TNA. Busting your ass on the independant circuit gets you a small shot at the big times, this is a known fact. From there, you need to do what Daniels and Joe did... make a name for yourself. Showcase your talent and stay loyal.
Joe was barely known outside of the ROH fans. People had heard the name "Samoa Joe", but just knew him as the "fat guy" in ROH. Made his TNA debut, about a year later... one of TNA's biggest marketable talents.
TNA has the names they need: AJ Styles, Kurt Angle, Sting and Samoa Joe. Those 4 right there will open people's eyes. What they need to do now, is be the place to see the best wrestling the world/United States has to offer. If I ( and many others ) wanna watch "big names that are familiar", thats what the WWE is there for. The Young Bucks are a fairly large buzz on the independant scene right now and aren't signed, like a majority of them are. This is something ROH is doing partially right, giving the younger guys like Aries ( not so much "younger" ), Black, Jacobs, etc. the chance to shine.
Again, it's simple... give them a shot, garuntee they won't disappoint. Fans will like their high flying moves and interesting/exciting moveset. From there, let the guys build themselves. Something TNA should've done with the Guns 2 years ago... let the fans decide how over they are, not backstage politics.
Just like Bateman said: People were saying "who is CM Punk?" a few years ago. ROH fans knew of him and old school TNA fans KINDA remembered him. However, for mainstream fans... he was a nobody. WWE heard the buzz from ROH fans and looked into him. Signed him and he did the OVW thing. Next thing we knew, he was debuting on ECW. From there... he just kept busting his ass, putting on great matches. The ones from ECW that you'd actually remember. The rest is history. Now, CM Punk is a mainstream name. Why? Because he is talented and not just "a big name". WWE gave him a shot and a chance to showcase his talents. He did and his popularity took over.

The name TNA needs is Goldberg. I concur, nice sig and av by the way. I'm forever a Hulk Hogan fan but at this point, he'd be a dis-service to TNA. Goldberg, on the other hand, has that big-time feel to him. Bring him into TNA for some appearences and watch some momentum shift. Who the f*ck are the Young Bucks?.. A few years ago, people were asking "who the f*ck is C.M Punk?" |

Goldberg, on the other hand, has that big-time feel to him. Bring him into TNA for some appearences and watch some momentum shift. No. Goldberg is one of those guys who believes he still has to go over, that's not what TNA at all. They need older guys who realize their time is ending and they need to get other guys over for wrestling to continue. Hulk Hogan is the exact same way, he can draw and get people's attention, but he would want to be made to look like a million dollars. TNA shouldn't be wasting money on guys who are only in it for themselves and not helping the company as a whole. Hulk will put TNA over but only after they made him look like he's still Hulk of years ago. I don't watch the Young Bucks much but I'm aware of what they can do. The difference between those two and guy's like Hogan and Goldberg, I WANT to watch the Young Bucks. They're very entertaining and would essentially be TNA's Sydal/Bourne. Again, another talent people had no clue of but now love. Just because you have no idea who they are doesn't mean they can't draw once their names are out there. |

I know it would never happen in a million years.....but what if Lesnar debuted in TNA.....what would you do?
--But on a serious note, I think Hogan should just stay put. He'd want WAY to much money and that is not what TNA needs write now as well as him being WAY past his prime. If Jarrett & Carter were smart they would invest their money in a name they should've made TNA champ years ago..."The Alpha Male" Monty Brown
