ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2004 OK, I posted these two thoughts and questions into other threads, but since I got no reply to them there, I'm going to post them both here now. First: Since only Elix Skipper and Christopher Daniels were in that cage match at Turning Point, is it feasible enough for a Triple X to still exist with either a combination of Skipper and Lo-Ki or Daniels and Lo-Ki? Second: With the rumors about WWE about to sue TNA...if they are successful and TNA is forced to fold, what would happen to the titles of TNA? I'm sure that the NWA World and World Tag titles would be fine, as they lasted since they were first made. But what about the TNA X-Division title? Would it be unified with the other X Titles that are floating around in the other sects of the NWA? Thanks in advance for your answers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted December 7, 2004 First: Since only Elix Skipper and Christopher Daniels were in that cage match at Turning Point, is it feasible enough for a Triple X to still exist with either a combination of Skipper and Lo-Ki or Daniels and Lo-Ki? I'd imagine it'd be very possible since I think the stips only applied to Daniels and Skipper. I think the most likely team to come out of that would be Skipper and Ki since Daniels can be a good upper mid-card guy. Second: With the rumors about WWE about to sue TNA...if they are successful and TNA is forced to fold, what would happen to the titles of TNA? They'd probably go back to just floating between the various NWA affliates like they were before TNA hit the scene. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted December 7, 2004 Low-Ki still wrestles for TNA? I don't remember hearing about him since the Tag Title Tournament earlier this year...of course, I haven't watched from May-July, so maybe he wrestled in that span too.

Would that be unified with the other X-Division titles out there in NWA? For the record there's the following other "X-Titles" out there in NWA: - NWA Florida X Championship - NWA Mid-American X Championship - NWA Mid-West X Championship - NWA New England X Championship - NWA Oklahoma X Championship - NWA Tri-State X Championship SOURCE: http://nwawrestling.com/superstars/rollcall/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted December 7, 2004 I'd be more inclined to think it would just disappear or appear in Ring of Honor depending on who was wearing it at the time TNA folds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Styles 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2004 Lo Ki is not under contract to TNA. TNA only uses contracted wrestlers (even the job guys have short term deals) and Lo Ki has refused because he wants the freedom to work in Japan. I suppose if he were to return, they could team him with either one but I doubt that's in the plans. Lo Ki has really not been mentioned much. When TNA was created, in exchange for giving the NWA a national outlet, the NWA board which still controls the titles gave TNA complete control over the booking of the NWA World Title and NWA Tag Team Titles. If TNA folded, the board would retain booking rights over those titkes. The X Title was created by TNA and I don't know its status as recognised by the NWA board, but I'd imagine they would gain control of that too. They don't have the woman's title because there are no women to wrestle and women's wrestling by and large sucks anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2004 Bumping for another question: Is there a chance that they'll try to have Jarrett (or, if it ever happens, another heel holding the NWA Title) revive the old "No Masks" rule for winning the NWA World Heavyweight Title if Abyss beats that person? If you don't know what I'm talking about, look up "The Midnight Rider"...if you weeel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose if he were to return, they could team him with either one but I doubt that's in the plans. Lo Ki has really not been mentioned much. From what I've seen recently, all the significant TNA talent have been doing indy shows, with AJ Styles even quipping "They pay my bills" when a "Fuck TNA" chant was heard. As well as mocking Double J. Something tells me Low Ki doesn't want to work TNA for other legit reasons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's different, Styles is under contract and any other shows he works is with TNA's blessing, Lo Ki has not signed because he makes more money in Japan and TNA doesn't want to invest storylines in wrestlers who they can't gaurentee will be there every week. Styles working an indy show on the weekend does not stop him from being at Orlando every Tuesday (or every other now as it is), a several week tour of Japan can mess up those plans...

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2004 The deal with Low Ki is that, as stated, he isn't willing to agree to TNA's desired written terms as he prefers to work a schedule of his own design in Japan, and also works for ROH, a promotion that TNA has, depending on who you listen to, forced it's workers (Styles, Daniels, Raven) to sever ties with. It's the same reason why CM Punk isn't in TNA anymore. It's possible that Low Ki could work a one shot like Spanky, but don't expect him involved in any TNA programs any time soon. The one wrestler who seems to be immune to this is Alex Shelley, who's worked for both TNA and ROH recently, but when it comes to the bigger "marketable" names TNA seems unwilling to compromise.

Yeah the whole TNA-ROH thing is contradictory due to how they are treating one wrestler over another with it. I think TNA needs to seriously consider letting any sort of previous disillusion over things subside now that the Feinstein thing is basically over and done with. In fact I think they should embrace each other's product more and co-promote each other to take it a step further, maybe even run promotion v. promotion in due time.

razazteca 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2004 What are the other big NWA affialates and is there any chance for a North American X Cup featuring the big NWA groups? There has to be more talent out there besides Florida and Wildside jobbers on Impact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBigSwigg 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2004 NWA affilliates It's actually more than you think, to be honest. It's a great group to pull talent from, really. I wish TNA stayed more along those lines. As a matter of fact, if TNA just toured those areas, and ran shows with those affiliates they could possibly get some attention.
