Kevin Nash had some interesting parting advice for his former employer, Dixie Carter, that he posted on his official Twitter page.
"When wcw took over the WWE for the short time we did, it's bc Ted Turner paid HUGE $ for talent. Wanna put tna on the map, Mrs. Carter? Set aside $50m. Start with Cena and work backwards. Don't walk into a Mercedes showroom and ask what new AMG S-63 I can buy for $25K."

He would say that, but it kinda makes sense what he's saying. Not a lot of people even know that Jeff frikken Hardy is in TNA, I think they've got their starting point... just some smart marketing might fix some things as far as awareness

There aren't any superstar wrestlers right now.
Would John Cena really turn TNA around? No.

Sting, Flair and Hogan are bigger than Cena.
One could argue that Angle and Jeff Hardy are bigger than Cena.
NONE of them helped TNA out at all.

Yes, brilliant idea Kevin Nash... he'll boost those ratings like yourself, Kurt Angle, Sting, Ric Flair and Jeff Hardy.  It's sad when wrestlers like Nash can't see the problem isn't "big names" or talent, it's the lack of marketing by TNA. The people that TNA have on their marketing team are use to promoting country music... which is a different animal than pro-wrestling. |

I know I'd watch WWE even more if Cena wasn't there.

Pretty much, if you're name is Kevin...you're not always going to have the nicest (or smartest) things to say about TNA  |

Watch TNA swoop up Cena and WWE's ratings increase because he's not there.

actually TNA would improve vastly, with compitent writers.
Fortune or immortals would get over more, if they would go and do something that hasnt been done before
WE NEED SHOCK
ECW got over on SHOCK VALUE
WCW errr NWO got over on SHOCK VALUE
WWF (Attitude) got over on SHOCK VALUE

Dont take what he says too literal about Cena, but the idea of what hes saying is right. You need the biggest star in the industry especially if you are the lacking company.
