If the Ross Report were still around, I have to wonder how JR would try to spin this...

Agreed. Plus, I'm all for anything that makes his family life easier. I can only imagine what it must be like to travel that much a year and barely get to see your wife and/or kids.

I don't recall anyone saying that. I see people saying that they hope he ends up in TNA, and that Christian looking out for himself and his own interests was a great career move. I guess wishful thinking on a message board is out of line around here now?

Oh no! Someone call the no-speculation-allowed police!

Did his contract not end, and he went on record to say that he'd only re-sign with WWE in the future? Or am I just remembering that wrong?

Agreed. Too many people are discounting him as an in-ring performer based solely on his most recently WWE work. I quite enjoyed his old stuff vs the Hardys, and a lot of his indy stuff pre-WWF was pretty good, IMO, as well.

News to me, lol. Shows how much I follow his career. Well, either way.

Deja vu...

The Un-Americans were Regal, Storm, Christian & Test. http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/profi...-americans.html Regal is still with the company and Storm "retired" and now trains guys down in OVW. The only other Un-American that was released was Test.

Regal and Storm were members as well..

Don't you mean Kris Chen? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That would be a golden way to stick it to the WWE. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Or, couldn't they technically spell it Xian and just pronounce it "Christian" ?

You mean upper-midcard-jobber-to-the-stars? Maybe Greg Helms will get the trade.

There's already a Chris Cage in OVW - WWE probably owns that too. http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/profi...chris-cage.html

It's no doubt a WWE trademark.. well, it's a good opportunitiy to break away from the lame gimmick of being Edge's "brother" and to be able to use his real name.

2 Hour Special = Thursday. Smackdown = Friday.

Feh, whatever. I think TNA is a great alternative to the crap we're presented with. Christian is hardly a throwaway, seeing as he quit himself. ...and they hardly pick up every WWE throwaway, that's just blatant exaggeration.

Yeah, right, like Taboo Tuesday voting isn't a fixed outcome already... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> By all accounts last year's vote was totally legit. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How so?

Guess that means there is no no-compete clause bullshit for him to worry about.

The initial happenings of Lita/Matt/Edge was not a work. He was released.

Seconded. If true: good for him! I'd rather see him in TNA where he'd at least be recognized for his talent.

I'm hopin' for the Muscle Bustah, myself! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's been in the past 3 (I believe... at least since HCTP) so I see no reason for it not to be here. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Really? I didn't notice it in HCTP..

Not yet - but I hope its fully outdoors and not an indoor rendering.

I don't think so. This is the impression I took away from the twist after thinking about it for a bit, post-viewing:
