Listing Of Tag Teams For Next Weeks Tournament +

[BoboBrazil 0]

--On next week's TNA, the show will be built around a tournament for the NWA tag titles with Shane Douglas & Michael Shane, Glenn Gilberti & David Young, 3 Live Kru, Slash & Sinn, The Naturals, Johnny Swinger & Kid Kash, Simon Diamond & Sonny Siaki and a mystery team, which at this point is not planned to be AMW.

 

--Chris Sabin was announced as being injured with ligament damage from last week. He's being checked this week to find out the extent of the damage so right now everything is up in the air. The worst case scenario believed at this point is he'll be getting scoped, so he'd be out maybe two months.

 

--They will be bringing back Team AAA for another X Cup that will be taped over the next two weeks and air on 4/7. The plan right now is for a Team Japan, but with six days left, there is no confirmation of what Team Japan will consist of. There is not even confirmation of the promotion as All Japan, NOAH and Toryumon have all been talked about.

What if the mystery team is Hall and Nash??

 

p.s. PLEASE LET IT BE TORYUMON!!

I'm actually hoping they choose NOAH, if only so Marufuji and KENTA come over. Those two are GREAT.

[Astro101 0]

So are they gonna start callin it the World X Cup now?

[BoboBrazil 0]

Toryumon is the best promotion eeeever, besides those guys would likely come alot cheaper than the noah, new japan, or all japan guys.

Total fucking ownage.....

You got any pics of those 2? What do they wrestle like? If they picked Noah who else would be on the team besides them?

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

KENTA

 

Marafuji

 

These are the best pics I could find. Hope they are helpful anyway......

So what do they wrestle like and what other people could be on the team and do decently if Noah is chosen? I still say Toryumon would be the best choice. Everyone on their roster is entertaining and wrestles an X style.

[Corey_Lazarus 0]

They both wrestle Junior Heavyweight styles. They fly, are a little stiff, and just own. Seriously. They just own. DEFINITELY X-Style.

[Guest Coffey]

I hope Simon Diamond & Sonny Siaki win the tournament.

[The Ghost of bps21 0]

Well...I want Slash and Sinn to win...

 

I think the Naturals will.

[Guest bort]

I dont think they will be flying people all the way from Japan for this, Heres my guess as to who ends up on team Japan

 

Noswa, Kendo Ka Shin, Rocky Romero & Ricky Reyes from the NJ dojo

[The Ghost of bps21 0]

They should just dress up Daniels and call him Curry Man.

[BoboBrazil 0]

I hope Hall and Nash is the mystery team. I think it would be great to have them in TNA as a tag team.

[King Cucaracha 0]

Toryumon is more adapt at the Americanised wrestling style, seeing as Ultimo brought over aspects of WCW with him when setting it up. i.e, it's more storyline based than other Japanese wrestling promotions. That may be a factoring decision.

 

And does anyone else think that saying the mystery team is 'not at this point planned to be AMW' means it really will be AMW?

Yes.

 

But...I can see why it wouldn't be. It's a good idea for them to leave AMW out of the tag division for a while...

[BoboBrazil 0]

Probably will be AMW if they can't get anyone else. It probably won't be Hall and Nash as they cost too much and they would probably hype them up coming in. Maybe XXX reforms on the show and gets a slot(which is actually best now that I think about it).

[The Ghost of bps21 0]

They did mention Low Ki and Daniels "were talking again" on the show last night.

 

Anyone know where they are right now?

[Michrome 0]

If it's NOAH, they have my ten bucks. NOAH's juniors > Tory anyday. GIMME NOAH.

[Michrome 0]

Daniels comes home from Japan this sunday.

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

Let's just hope Rick Steiner isn't teamed with anyone. It's about time for his once every other year appearence.

[Michrome 0]

By the way...if they bring NOAH over to face Elix Skipper, Frankie Kazarian, and other clowns, I will cry many tears. What a waste that would be...put AJ and Chris Daniels on Team TNA and give us some dream matches.

[The Ghost of bps21 0]

Anyone they bring in would be facing Juventud Guerrera and team AAA in the X Cup week.

 

Although they have put guys in the taped matches on the live show too...

My votes got to go to Toryumon, just because they'll have the easiest time getting over with American fans. It'd be freaking great if we could get them over here on a semi-regular basis.

[Guest Salacious Crumb]

I would like to see Triple X reform for the tournament.

 

Daniels and American Dragon could also be potential Team Japan guys since they just won the IWGP Jr. Tag Titles.

[Guest MikeSC]

Actually, of all Japanese wrestlers, I always thought Satoshi Kojima (he's with AJPW, right?) would be the most adept at really getting over with American fans.

[Guest Goodear]

Is Kazarian still bringing someone in with him at some point or was that dropped like the Abyss/Styles tag team angle?

[LucharesuFan619 0]

I'm actually hoping they choose NOAH, if only so Marufuji and KENTA come over. Those two are GREAT.

Total fucking ownage.....

Agreed. That'd be fucking AWESOME if they brought them in.

I've only seen his MLW stuff,. but I'd like to see him in TNA for the Worlds-X Cup.

 

Back to topic, Sonjay Dutt NEEDS to be ditched. He's the worst of the bunch in Team NWA, and he just drags matches down. Daniels = Leagues better than Dutt.

Meltzer says the dreaded mystery team isn't all that dreaded so it must be someone pretty good. I'd say XXX just because they could go all the way through and make a big impact again.
