Imagine all the burying that would go on with another Invasion storyline. It'd never happen. WCW was killing the WWF for two years, and wrestling was insanely hot during the Monday Night Wars. WWF vs WCW was a dream scenario. TNA has never been more than a small blip on WWE's radar, certainly nowhere near big enough to do an invasion storyline with. Although on the plus side, the current TNA roster are all on contracts that are feasible for WWE to pick up, so at least it'd be able to include the main event guys this time. Eric Young and Magnus.

Well that's a given. I never said there was even a realm of possibility this could happen, but have tried it out in my figure feds time and again.

So am I the only one that wants Dixie to beat EY for the title? It'd get them some publicity. SHE is more credible than EY

Or CM Punk... Or R-Truth.. Or Hulk Hogan.. Or Road Dogg, Billy Gunn, Booker T, Kevin Nash, Mick Foley, Ric Flair, Christian, Rob Van Dam.. Or What if Sting has signed? They might like to have his old TNA footage for the many DVDs they'll make of him.. And I'm sure once Kurt Angle and Jeff Hardy inevitably come back to WWE they'd like to have footage for their future DVDs aswell. Hell maybe Bully Ray comes back. Or DVon. Or Matt Hardy. Or Ken Anderson. Maybe Scott Steiner signs a Legends deal. Maybe Raven signs a Legends deal.. The only person that the TNA footage would be worthwhile for is Bully Ray, if he ever goes back to WWE and is a big player. They could show the TNA stuff as him finding his way as a singles wrestler. For Sting, Road Dogg, Nash, Booker, Hardy, Angle, Flair, Foley etc, TNA is just an embarrassing place where they slummed it while not under WWE contract. Essentially, the only time TNA footage would be productive to WWE would be when they're doing a Self-Destruction of DVD on someone. "Jeff was so strung out on meth, he was reduced to this" with a few clips of TNA shows. WWE already has hundreds of thousands of hours of footage, and they produce about seven or eight hours more every week, so they're not desperately in need of network content. If they can ever pick up the TNA library in the five figures range, it'd be worth it. But any more than that, and it just would be a bad investment. It was still a part of their career. My point was that Consequences Creed isn't the only person to have success and footage in TNA. And I definitely don't think Sting considers TNA a place "where he slummed it" while not under WWE contract. He probably enjoyed his time there.

Consequences Creed doesn't have any footage worth owning. Again, hence the sarcasm. Everything else between guys like Angle, Hardy, Sting, Christian, etc... there's nothing from their careers in TNA that are "must have" for any documentary.

His best run ever was his TNA run. By far.

His best run ever was his TNA run. By far. I do agree that some of Christian's best work was when he was in TNA. However, if WWE ever put out a Christian documentary and let's just say they owned TNA's library, they're still not gonna mention that he won his first World Title in TNA. In his documentary, all they'll mention is how he scratched and clawed for so long, he left to hone his craft somewhere else and when he came back to WWE, he won the ECW Title, but they'll have Christian mention how even though he won the main title of the ECW brand, he still never felt as if he ever won the World Title, then they'll mention Christian's WWE World Title reign. If they ever make a Christian documentary, that's how I see things going down, with or without TNA's tape library. I'll admit I was someone who could see WWE owning TNA's tape library if they ever went out of business, but now that I think about it, I don't think WWE ever felt TNA was competition, even when Hogan came in, so I changed my view and now I don't really see WWE ever wanting TNA's tape library.

They might grab some of that Chris Harris footage for that inevitable Braden Walker documentary.
Knock knock...
