Flair will retire when he expires, and not until then. Wooo! Let me put it in this perspective: When Bret Favre kept coming out of retirement, it was great, but it took a major tool on his legacy. The only reason I say that, is because he didn't know when to quit. That's what Flair is going through. The 1st time he retired was in 2000, then came out of retirement in 2001. He retired again in 2008, then came out of retirement again in 2009-2010. He's the greatest wrestler of all-time! It's time for him to step aside and have more of a manager position. Putting him as a manager would be great for this stage of his career. |

As long as he wants to go and he can, I say let him wrestle.

Dragonmike, let me ask you this: if you were in a live audience or watching a wrestling program on TV, would you rather want to see guys in their 60's who are WAY past their prime main event, or wrestlers who are in their 20's and IN their prime main event a show? |

Did you forget about how much money it would realistically cost for TNA to hire all of those guys? And also, what if they're not available, much like how they aren't now. One of TNA's biggest problems right now is that they're flooded with ex-WWE talent, so what would the point be of releasing all that washed up talent just to bring in more WWE talent? Also, I disagree with bringing back the 6-sided ring. Makes TNA look like an Indy Wrestling fed.

Also, I disagree with bringing back the 6-sided ring. Makes TNA look like an Indy Wrestling fed. Are you serious (about the six-sided-ring)? It is the things like that that make TNA unique and different from WWE, ROH, and other companies. When it comes to ex-WWE stars, there is a big difference between washed-up has been WWE stars like Flair, The Dudleys, Mickie James, Hogan, Steiner, etc. And wrestlers who have worked for WWE who are still young and can draw cash! I don't intend on filling the roster with tons of ex-WWE wrestlers. I just would want to show that TNA has the best talent that the wrestling world has to offer. |

Dude. The ex-WWE guys aren't the only reason to watch TNA. However, with all Hogan and Bischoff have done to screw it all up, it's sad to see what all TNA has become.

I mean, TNA was great from 2002-2009. It was unique in it's own form. It set itself apart from WWE. Edge, I ask you to take a look at TNA around that time. Moments like:
Abyss vs. Sabu (Barbed Wired Massacre at Turning Point 2005): to this day that is one of the best wrestling matches that I have ever seen.
Tony Schivoane's promo in 2003.
Kurt Angle's Debut Announcement and the off-screen reaction.
Beer Money vs. The Motor City Machine Guns Best-Of-5 Series
Jeff Jarrett goes after Hulk Hogan in NJPW 2003.
Those are just some of the moments that you should check out.
Like I said about the ex-WWE guys, it's not about where they're from, it's about showing that TNA has the best talent that the wrestling world has to offer.

What you would have to do is build the match up trmendosly. Make it like a revenge match or something. That was the final match between Abyss and Sabu's Rivalry from 2005. It would be the culminating match of a rivalry. If you had like a Storm or a Roode or even a Styles, or even a Rhino for that matter, it would have still gone down as a great match. It would be all about buildup, and the quality and the excitement of the match itself. |

The triple threat match between Styles, Joe and Daniels back in 05 is proof enough that TNA was better back then.

True. If only Hogan and Bischoff realized that.
