In the history of TNA, who has TNA dropped the ball with the most? I would probably say Monty Brown. He really should have won the belt at that PPV against Double J. He was hot at the time and JJ ended up dropping the belt to AJ, who held it for a few weeks before losing it. Then, at the first BFG, it would have made more sense for Monty to win the belt since he had backstage encounters with JJ. Instead, TNA gives it to Rhino, who had been losing matches all the time, and then Rhino held it for a couple days. Then, TNA promises him the belt, and gives it to Christian instead. Then, instead of trying to make it up to him, they let him walk.
People will say Samoa Joe, but he has gotten a great solid push in his time in TNA. Plus, there are more stars around now than there were when Monty was in Joe's spot.
So who has TNA dropped the ball with the most?

I would say Christoper Daniels, he should be in contention for the TNA title, instead he will be lucky to get a X title run.

The MCMG's. Instead of giving them the tag belts, they give them to Pacman.

Most recently: AJ Styles. They should be building the show around him. Other than that...
Alex Shelley, Rhino, and Ron Killings all come to mind.
On another interesting side note, who do you think TNA has used a lot that you think they shouldn't have? I'd say BG James, he's pathetic.

There's too many to name, seriously.
Samoa Joe- Sure he's had his shots but TNA still could of done so much more with him. He should of had the title by now because he's ya know, only the most over guy TNA has.
AJ Styles- The once poster boy for TNA is now used for nothing more than comedy and to play second to Christian. For months now they keep teasing a pay off but nothing. Now the man who has put on the match of the night for the last two BFG events is stuck in a match involving Pacman Jones.
Christopher Daniels- The man says he's done with the X-Division only to return to it a few months later. How intellectually- disabled does that make him look? Not to mention he had this huge feud with Sting only to job to him within 6 minutes.
Low Ki- He's lucky he can even get on Impact. Triple X was just a way of throwing three guys TNA had nothing to do with together and guess what? They're still doing nothing. At least let them make a run for the tag titles.
LAX- They went from one of the most hated heels in TNA to being lucky to even be on Impact. TNA should rebuild the tag division around LAX, MCMG's & Triple X. Oh the matches that could come about.
MCMG's- Two guys with so much talent jobbing to crap like Billy Gunn & Road Dogg. Again, they should rebuild the tag division around LAX, Triple X & the MCMG's.
Rhino- The guy is so talented and went from main eventing to jobbing to James Storm. TNA really needs to repackage Rhino as a heel and maybe give him a mouth piece.
Petey Williams- The guy is doing next to nothing right now. 'Nuff Said.
Frankie Kazarian- Up until now he was doing jack **** and even now he should be making a run for the X-Division title.
Chris Harris- He went from being the MVP of the King Of The Mountain match and then looking like a star feuding with Christian only to be jobbing to Black Reign a month later.
Robert Roode- I don't really like the guy but you build him up to be this huge future main event player and then make him lucky enough to even get on the PPV. Despite me not really liking him if you're gonna build someone up like that don't throw them on the pre show, even with a stacked card.
Sonjay Dutt- Another X-Division guy that doesn't do ****. The only reason he's getting on the show is because he's Jay Lethal's tag team partner otherwise you would never see him show his face.
Monty Brown- Could of been a huge player for TNA but clearly they dropped the ball. Not much more to really say.

SAMOA JOE, this guy could be as popular as anyone in the history of the company and they've literally made it a point to send him back to ROH and Japan where he'd be making more money in the first place.

I would say Christoper Daniels, he should be in contention for the TNA title, instead he will be lucky to get a X title run. Definitely. I think it's a whose who, TNA is such a joke at times... it's hard to believe the "#2 company" isn't even the second best wrestling company out there. |

Samoa Joe - People love to make excuses about this. When he was in the main event scene he did nothing but job to Kurt Angle, how is that a solid push? The guy should have been world champion a year ago, but he made a harmless comment and it was taken away from him.
A.J. Styles - This is probably the most pathetic on TNA's part. When I used to think TNA, A.J. Styles would be the first guy to come to mind. He went from the face of TNA, to the face up Christian's ass.
MCMG - So much potential, yet TNA doesn't capitalize on it. They'd rather have them job to guess who, WWE has-beens. They'd make great world tag team champions like LAX, but they'd rather put a title on a criminal that can't legally wrestle. And no, Pacman doesn't help the ratings.
Christopher Daniels - Should also be contending for the world title, but I doubt he'll even be the X-division champion.

Id say the same as the rest of you, the trouble with TNA is they have wrestlers who if given there break they could be the future of wrestling, only TNA isnt capitalizing, there just giving the main event to people who made it to main event status in either WWE or WCW, for example the main event at next PPV is Sting and Kurt Angle, dont get me wrong I am a fan of both of those wrestlers and I really enjoy watching them, but if TNA capitalized when they should have then the main event for the world title should rightfully be Samoa Joe VS AJ Styles, by now those 2 should be the main event of TNA but the creative team is too lazy to think of a way to push them. TNA is becoming WCW more and more ie nobody is getting a break apart from people who have been main event elsewhere.

AJ Styles by far. He was the face of TNA, he is an incredible wrestler, and you knew you was going to get something special when he was on pay per view, and even on the weekly shows. And back in the weekly Wednesday shows he helped make TNA look good. Pepole became fans becuse of him.
TNA repays him by making him look like a joke, and making him look like the weak one in a group where he's out shined by two former WWE wrestlers.

Styles, Joe, Monty Brown, MCMG, Daniels, Rhino, LAX, Petey Williams.
Pretty much all their homegrown talent is, was, or being wasted.

It's got to be a 3-way tie between Daniels, Joe and Styles.
AJ Styles - He WAS the most over guy on the roster bar none. He's a former NWA Champ. They were doing well with him, until his heel turn. Now he's taking on Pacman Jones and is Christian's bitch.
Samoa Joe - This guy, ALSO was the most over guy on the roster bar none. Of course, Styles and Joe were different times when they were the most over. Joe has had so many chances, and has been in TNA for nearly 3 years. Punk was in WWE for 1 year, and won the title. Why not Joe in TNA ?
Chris Daniels - Just an awesome wrestler and character, who they have done nothing with. I thought they were getting somewhere earlier this year with his feud with Sting, but no. They dropped the storyline, and Daniels' push.

Alex Shelley. He could be the next Chris Jericho, if given the chance.
