Related, WWE has officially signed Devitt.
AJ Styles has been out of TNA for awhile now and is doing his thing in Japan. Austin Aries, Roode, and some nostalgia factor with the Dudleys/Hardyz would be fantastic though.

Yup, because Big Show, Jericho, Dudleyz, and countless others never got pushed after coming over from WCW/ECW.

Those all moved over before WCW folded. Anyway, WCW was on a different level. WWE isn't interested in old wrestlers from a washed out D level company. They already passed on AJ Styles.

Could easily see them resigning some of the ex-roster (Angle, Dudleys, Hardys), if for nothing else then a quick run to get merchandise sales going.
Assuming Vince/Trips trusted them enough to stay clean Angle or Jeff could easily be brought back straight at the top of the card.

Bye bye TNA. Guess I'll just be watching ROH now (along with the only WWE shows worth watching Vintage and NXT).

The rumor is theres 3 big announcements this week of August.
1. TNA possibly gone for good.
2. Devitt just signed to WWE.

3. Possibly Jeff Jarrett confirming something with his new promotion GFW.

I could see Bully Ray easily going back to WWE as a full time performer. Kurt Angle & the Hardy Boyz could be too big a liability as wrestlers, but they could be good for one last nostalgia run and then just go do promotional appearances and Indy shows for the rest of their careers.

Is Matt even wrestling anymore? Kurt has all but said he wants one last run in WWE before he hangs it up for good. D-Von I think is done, but Bully could be a good upper midcard heel who can add some needed depth for the roster. Aeries, Roode and Storm would also be good pickups. Samoa Joe is pretty much damaged goods thanks to shitty booking from TNA. Also the Beautiful People would be a huge gain for the women's division. Sorry, hate the term Diva......

Matt has been in ROH and just came back to TNA (taped but his return was just last week). Devon is back too and honestly looks pretty good. The current set of tapings from NY are quite good, TNA is worth a watch atm.

Yup. Raw ended with the crowd doing a "Jamie Noble" chant. Originally Posted by Xno Kappa

Yeah, I only caught the end. Left me thinking the rest of the night must've been pretty lame given the lack of thread traffic. Originally Posted by Tyrath

The opening between Cena/Cesaro/Heyman was great, and the Trips/Steph segment with Jericho was a great throwback to some of their old feuds. Otherwise it was fairly standard outside of Bo losing.
