Please be joking about AnimalComment

No way.
They did a big angle where a guy dressed all in black including a mask attacked people (forgot who). It was revealed to be fatty Animal.
:headbang:
From Wiki:
The main event was between Sid Vicious, Jeff Jarrett, WCW World Champion Scott Steiner, and a "mystery opponent" for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship in a Four Corners match.[10][12][13]
The match begins with only three competitors, without the mystery opponent.[10][13] Vicious gains the advantage over Jarrett and Steiner in the start of the match, but was then double-teamed by Jarrett and Steiner. As Vicious is making a come back into the match, he attempts an aerial maneuver, which is unsuccessfully performed as he slips on the turnbuckle legitimately fracturing his leg.[18]
Towards the end of the match, then-WCW CEO Flair announces the arrival of the "mystery opponent", who comes out wearing a mask, hiding his identity.[12]
He enters the ring delivering an axe handle on Vicious knocking him down, due to the leg injury, where Steiner takes advantage and covers Vicious for the victory, thus successfully retaining the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.[10][12][13]
After the match ended, the "mystery man" unmasked and revealed himself to be Road Warrior Animal, making his return to WCW after leaving with his longtime tag team partner Road Warrior Hawk in 1996.[14]

For a minute in couldn't figure out if this was something old you were talking about, or something brand new that TNA was doing.
Think about that...my mind had no issues wrapping itself around the fact that TNA was giving a monster push to ROAD WARRIOR ANIMAL in 2010. I wasn't shocked one bit, and found it completely acceptable.Comment

WCW wasn't going to last any longer no matter what happened to it/who bought it.
TNT pulled the plug on showing wrestling, it was over.
I do see your point though.Comment

The question is, do the top TNA guys have guaranteed deals? Hell no I presume.
If TNA were to go under in the next 5 years, very few would catch on in WWE.
For the better of the business, TNA has to stay alive.

The guys that matter would just catch on in the indies and one of the guys who already made money would go and start a new fed to bring the old guys to.
ROH would benefit from Styles, Joe, the Guns, etc back in the fold meanwhile, maybe the Hulkamania tour would become a full fledged American promotion to the delight of all, as we'd be able to see a main event grudge match between Hulk Hogan and Kevin Nash with an undercard of Sean Morley / Orlando Jordan v. The Nasty Boyz.Comment

I just caught myself up with Albert Del Rio's since he came to Smackdown and he's awesome. He's so damn smug.

Meltzer said in this week's Observer that if Heyman had ended up in charge of TNA, he would have fired everyone in creative and hired Gabe Sapolsky and Dave Lagana as his assistants.
Lagana booked that pretty good period of WWECW after Heyman left (Punk, Morrison, Elijah Burke era) and currently works with ROH laying out tv & ppv. Sapolsky is obviously Heyman light, the protoge who has the Heyman fingerprints all over his booking.
When Heyman was flirting with the job, I suggested Gabe & Scott D'Amore as right hand men. This would have been awesome, too. Fuck TNA.Comment
