ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2006 Teddy Hart wrestled for TNA already, didn't he? Harry Smith in TNA could be interesting. Put Hart and Smith together, you get TNA's version of the Hart Foundation! [Yeah, I'm probably exaggurating big time. ] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Coffey Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Kevin Steen has never impressed me. He's too bland. If they're bringing in El Generico, they should bring in the Human Tornado too. Might as well get another tag team around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 They might as well get Evans in just to have the true Generation Next stable in TNA. Sydal has worked a couple TNA shows in the past hasn't he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sideburnious 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Is Sydal even that good? I think I saw him once and I wasn't really impressed. Hart, Smith and Evans battling for the rights to the real Team Canada would kick ass. Get Bret as their manager or the person who brought them in would kick even more ass.

Sydal makes Styles look like Mark Henry in terms of athletic ability and mind-boggling acrobatic skills, but Jack Evans trumps Sydal in that department anyways. Sydal is a great baby. and NEW HART FOUNDATION would be great to see as they are all legitimately in the hart family. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mecha Mummy 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 I would honestly consider Matt Sydal to be the best underdog babyface working the indies today. His work has always really, really impressed me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

death_by_burrito 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Why is Bryan Danielson never considered being signed by either TNA or WWE? Does he not want to go to either one since he is the ROH Champ (I think) or is it something else? Personally, Danielson would be awesome in TNA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 (edited) I've been calling for Jack for months and I'm a big mark for Sydal, so I'd love to see those two. Some people aren't too hot on him but I'd be happy if they got Steen, because they could do with some different sized guys on the roster. And Generico would be huge. I dread to think what the "Olé" rip-off would sound like though. Edited January 16, 2006 by King Cucaracha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slingshot Suplex 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Sydal worked quite a few Xplosion tapings back in 2003 and early 04 and a couple of the weekly ppvs so they are familiar with him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Decemberists 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Why is Bryan Danielson never considered being signed by either TNA or WWE? Does he not want to go to either one since he is the ROH Champ (I think) or is it something else? Personally, Danielson would be awesome in TNA. My understanding was that both have offered him deals in the past, but he'd rather be wrestling 20/30/40 minute matches with people who he wants to wrestle, rather than have a little more money and be put into 4/5/6 minute TV matches so he turned them both down.

Cuban Linx 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Is Teddy still crazy? Not to the same batshit insane levels of the past, but yes. Out of that list Matt Sydal i'm most pleased to see getting another shot in TNA. I just hope they bring in Delirious with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Amy Ace Report post Posted January 16, 2006 They need to bring in Jack Evans and hook him up with the Strong/Aries/Shelly stable and just have them been Gen Next. They should also definately scope up Harry before the E does. Maybe form "The New Hart Foundation" with Teddy, eh? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

razazteca 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 I'm probably the only one here who remembers Raven breaking Mike Foxx's fingers on an episode of WWE Heat.

Harry, Teddy and Jack would make an excellent Hart Foundation stable especially if Bret actually does sign with TNA. Hart Foundation 3.0(Jack/Teddy/Harry and maybe someone else who can play the Pillman role as the family "friend")W/Bret Vs Generation Next (Aries/Strong/Shelley/Sydal) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 I'm not sure, but I remember Cody Steele, Eric Young, Derek Wylde and Lazarus having some great matches. Its too bad "Suicide" Shaun Ball had a horrible leg injury a few years back because he would do well in TNA (these wrestlers were all at one point working for NSPW and FSPW in the ealy 2000's in the Niagara region).

And that my friends is called intelligence. Danielson should just continue to develop as a wrestler. He is great and should be even better in a few years. I believe Harry Smith also turned down the big E (maybe TNA as well) to get more experience wrestling different styles of wrestling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest karlitoapple Report post Posted January 18, 2006 Meltzer never reported this in his newsletter or any of his recent website updates. I know that Harry Smith hinted that he would be with WWE sooner than later at the fanfest for the recent 1PW shows. He has had a developmetnal offer for a long time. Watch, maybe people in WWE will buy intothese reports and go after anyone on this list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
