IF they do this right, and that's a big IF Burke could be huge, but I'm already thinking they will screw the thing up by giving him a really lame name. Of the guys WWE recently let go I feel him and Ken Anderson have the most upside and could be made into big stars. Again TNA has to show us they actually know how to do this. I might be dead wrong but, I thought Elijah Burke was his real name. If it is his real name, I see no reason to give him a new one. As for the signing, i'm liking it a lot. I still to this day cannot figure why in the hell WWE released him. I thought the guy was a good worker in the ring and he had strong charisma. Personally I think if TNA lets Burke do his thing, he is going to be a breath of fresh for the roster. The same goes for Ken Kennedy err.. Anderson. What is really intriguing to me, is how large the roster is getting period. TNA is either going to get a second show or they are planning for a bunch of departures and or retirements. They have way too many men and women for just one two hour weekly show. |

Sweet! Another wrestler added to a roster filled with plenty of people that have talent and still never get pushed! Pretty much. While Burke is a nice pick up, what are you doing with the MCMG's or Jay Lethal, Or Kaz(drop the suicide crap), or Creed? What exactly are you doing with anyone that hasn't been a former WWE star before coming to TNA...TNA? |

Good: Elijah Burke is in TNA and will be good, not the best money investment... but will make for entertaining television.
Bad: More money spent on hiring new talent, when they don't even properly use the talent they have.

All we need now is Umaga and Kennedy for the invasion  Invasion? Yes an angle where TNA is under the threat of an invasion of former WWE midcarders sounds excellent. I like Burke and hope he suceeds. But seriously TNA does not need to keep signing all these guys WWE lets go |

That's what WCW's invasion of the WWF was. I can picture it now: TNA InVasion. Inaugural Brawl Kurt Angle, Sting, AJ Styles, Samoa Joe & Kevin Nash vs Mr. Kennedy, Umaga, Bobby Lashley, Elijah Burke & Jethro Holliday Then Kurt Angle turns on Team TNA and joins The Alliance WWE. Then Vince McMahon Dixie Carter brings The Rock Jeff Jarrett back from his suspension for Team TNA. |

YES!!, now all they need is Kennedy and Lance Cade and I'm set. Exactly what TNA needs two more known drug users. All they need is Raven and they can do The Flock with ex-wwe stars who have certain drug issues. Angle, Cade, Kennedy. Put them in with Raven and we got a great addict flock.  |

For once, TNA's signing of a WWE reject is a good thing. Burke is a good worker and TNA will benefit from his acquisition.

Talented performer in the ring and on the mic. Hope they give him a good push. I've always enjoyed his work.

Everyone is going to say aother ex-WWE star... yawn. Atleast TNA uses them right. Burke is great material ande should never be wasted on ECW.
