Previously I had NWA - Gone Global and to be honest it just spun out of control, and got stupid. So here I am back with a new one.

Same basic idea, but this time instead of starting up a new company Mukesh Ambani has purchased TNA, and wants to go head on with Vince.

The time period is October 2009. The TNA locker room is filled with chaos with the news that they have been bought out. A meeting has been called, and all the talent that's available has come in. The first thing a lot of the wrestlers soon find out are some people are missing.

Behind The Scenes
Mukesh meets with the TNA Roster

Mukesh Ambani enters the room, and the locker room becomes silent. He starts out by thanking everyone for coming, and jumps right into business. The first thing everyone is told is that there have been some releases already. Mukesh continues with saying that there will be some major changes right away with TNA. First of all TNA is no more. Mukesh states that not only has he purchased TNA, but he also purchased NWA's name brand. He wanted to have a recognizable name that has a long history of success. He doesn't
want anything to do with the name of TNA, and wants to start over. At this point the locker room is filled with mixed emotions. Everyone is confused, but trying to keep an open mind. Mukesh said the name change is the first thing, but there's much more.

Mukesh: We are stationed in Orlando right now, we do all our shows here, soon that will not be the case. We will be traveling, we will be expanding. Our product will be seen, our product will be known. Some of you guys may not be able to handle life on the road anymore. Some of you guys won't make it. My hope is though that some of you see the big picture, and want to create something special. That you guy's want to have an alternative to WWE. I'm not scared of WWE, I have the resources, and I have the heart to
not only compete with WWE, but to bury WWE. I will be bringing in guys who know the business. I know there are a lot of veterans in this locker room. I need you guys for the growth of this company. I will depend on you guys. I respect your careers, I respect what you've done.

Mukesh continues

Mukesh: Now the taping is already done for tonight. We have a PPV the 18th of October. That will take place here. Tapings for now on will take place every single Tuesday. We are no longer an amateur company. We will not do bulk tapings, we will be doing them weekly. The Thursday show will continue to run as is for 2 hours. The big news is we do have another show lined up. It will be starting in December. I've already had an in depth discussion with Spike TV, and they have agreed to give us 2 hours additionally on Monday nights. It will be live, and we will be head to head with Monday Night Raw.

The locker room at this point is in shock.

Mukesh: Again I'm not worried, we will go through growing pains, but we will succeed. Further information will come out as we go. Next Tuesday for the Impact taping we will still be known as TNA. As far as your current storyline, titles, etc that will be looked into. Changes are coming obviously, but nothing will be shook up too quickly. Okay that is all for now, I want you all here
Tuesday, for those who couldn't make it for this meeting they will be mailed notice to be there Tuesday. Now over the next few days I will have meetings with some of you, everyone else I'll see you Tuesday.

Mukesh leaves the locker room, and everyone is pretty worried, & in shock with the set of events that just happened.

Mukesh: Kurt thanks for meeting with me it means a lot.

Kurt: Certainly.

Mukesh: Good, good. Now Kurt I've watched your storied career, and I'm a very big fan of yours. I know you are close to your family. I respect that, and I've known your bodies been through a lot. With that said I'm looking at you as being a cornerstone of this company. You are a very important piece of the puzzle. Now I want you to go in this with an open mind. The last thing I want is for you to be overwhelmed.

Kurt: First of all thank you for the compliments it means a lot, now I have to say a big part of me being with this company is the

great schedule I have. I can see my family, everything is centered in one place. It's just really easy for me. I don't know if I can handle the workload of a traveling company again.

Mukesh: I realize it's difficult, but I promise I will make it easier on the top level guys. You will have a padded schedule. We will be doing a lot of tour dates I admit that, but I will have in a place a schedule that will be beneficial to you in many ways.

You of course will have to travel but some weeks I will only use it you on the Live Monday Night Show, and the taping on Tuesdays.

Then after that you can be off until the next week. Sometimes I will be needing you for some house shows. But those will not heavily involve you. If you do decide you want more house shows that will be taken care of. We will be making a lot of money I promise you that.

Kurt: That all sounds great, I will need some time to just think things over. I want to see this company grow, I want to see another company compete with WWE. That's been the goal this whole time. I am a wrestler, this is what I do.

Mukesh: Good, good. Look things wont start drastically changing until January. We will start touring then. The next three or so months it will be pretty easy going. I look forward to working with you.

Kurt: Thanks a lot Mr. Ambani

Mukesh: Just one more thing. How is everything going with your legal issues. Do you have those all squared away?

Kurt: Yes things are getting sorted out, and won't be a problem

Mukesh: If you do have any problems don't hesitate to speak up to me.

Kurt: It means a lot really. Thank you.

Mukesh: Thanks for meeting with me Steve.

Sting: Not a problem.

Mukesh: Is it alright if I call you Steve?

Sting: yes that is fine.

Mukesh: Okay good. firstly I'd like to tell you I admire your career, and i am a huge fan. Now I don't want to be too straight forward, but I'd like to get down to some business.

Sting: okay.

Mukesh: Well I know you are winding down your career, and there have been talks about you retiring within the year. Now if that's your plan that is something that is understandable.

Sting: Well to be perfectly honest I'm getting up there in age, and I'm getting to the point where I want to settle down, and hang them up. I don't want to be one of those guys who stays way too long.

Mukesh: Let me throw this out there. What if we set you up with a really limited schedule.

Sting: How limited are we talking?

Mukesh: 3 months off a year. Once a week Mondays you will have to work. And nine ppvs a year.

Sting: I don't know that's still pretty much what I'm doing now.

Mukesh: You will be getting a big bump in salary. We will take care of you.

Sting: It's not totally about money. It's business sure, but there are lot of factors that I will have to weigh out.

Mukesh: And I totally respect that.

Sting: Another huge factor is the product itself, and what direction it goes in. There is no way I will stand for any WWE type crap going on. I pride myself on working with a respectable company.

Mukesh: Don't worry Steve I feel the same way, and would never dip down that low. I promise you that.

Sting: Well I certainly have a lot to think about, but so far it sounds pretty good.

Mukesh: Thank you for meeting with me, think it over, and we will discuss it further soon.

Sting: Thanks.

Mukesh: Mick pleasure to meet you

Mick Foley: You too sir.

Mukesh: I've enjoyed your work everything from WCW to WWE to Japan.

Mick Foley: Haha thank you

Mukesh: Now what are your current feeling about this company.

Mick Foley: Well I dont know if I could describe it all in one sentence. I think the company has always attempted to move in the right direction, but there certainly have been a lot of road blocks.

Mukesh: I agree with you on that, but things certainly have already begun to change. We are under a new direction now, and need the proper leadership to continue you in that direction. Now I see you have several months left on your contract, but I certainly would like you to continue with us.

Mick Foley: Lets not get ahead of ourselves, I do want to continue. I also want to let me current contract play out, and figure things out when it runs out.

Mukesh: That's not a problem. What do you see as a role for yourself within this company?

Mick Foley: They've were really pushing me the last several months, my body is in tough shape. I'm up for new suggestions on how to utilize me.

Mukesh: We will look into giving you a much lighter in ring schedule, and figure out some things for you.

Mick Foley: Sounds great Mr. Ambani.

Mukesh: Now not being too forward, may I inquire about someone?

Mick Foley: Shoot

Mukesh: Paul Heyman

Mick Foley: Wooah I don't know where you are going with that. But Paulie said numerous times he's not interested in the business anymore.

Mukesh: Yes I've heard that, but I'm sure when I have a talk with him he will change his mind.

Mick Foley: Well I'll be damned, good luck with that.

Mukesh: He's someone though you still feel can help us get us to where we want to be?

Mick Foley: If you get him you will be ahead of the game.

Mukesh: Thanks for meeting with me Mick. We will talk further soon.

Mick Foley: Yes, thank you Mr. Ambani.

Mukesh: Booker thanks for coming in for this meeting.

Booker T: Yeah no problem

Mukesh: How do you feel about your experience with TNA so far?

Booker T: It's been alright, There's been some stuff that I agree with, and other stuff that I dont.

Mukesh: What do you think about this company going in a new direction?

Booker T: I think it's time for a change, I'm actually pretty interested in this move.

Mukesh: Good I'll be straight forward with you. As long as you want to be in this company you will be. Sharmell is welcome just as much as you are.

Booker T: Well that's comforting.

Mukesh: I still think you have a lot to contribute to this business. You are in incredible shape, and I want to see you take an active role in helping out the younger guys coming up as well.

Booker T: I have no problem giving back to this business, and helping out the youngins. That is fine with me.

Mukesh: Good so I will see you and Sharmell Tuesday. Also, I'd like to talk to you about possibly associating your PWA with NWA.

Booker T: Really?

Mukesh: We want to open up two facilities. One near Mexico, and another somewhere in the northeast. Houston would be a perfect location for us. Does your brother still run that mostly?

Booker T: Yes he plays a large part in the running of it.

Mukesh: Well I will have talk to him and you soon. Of course we'd probably be do some major restructuring, but he'll be guarenteed a job over there.

Booker T: I really appreciate it. Thank you.

Mukesh: No problem Booker I will see you Tuesday

Mukesh: Kevin thanks for coming to this meeting.

Kevin: Nothing I'd like better to do

Mukesh: Good. So how did you like the direction TNA was going before this big shake up?

Kevin: Well I wouldn't say things were going perfectly. But it was more good than bad.

Mukesh: What are your feelings on us going Global, and going head to head with WWE?

Kevin: Well I'd say you are either nuts, or have some serious balls. By the way you conducted yourself in that meeting earlier. I'm going with you having balls.

Mukesh: Well Kevin I'm a real serious man, and I also do not get into situations without researching. Looking at the current model of TNA I didn't see it going much further.

Kevin: Well we were slowly growing.

Mukesh: TNA is in rough shape, but we will recover.

Kevin: Well you certainly talk a good game, and until you prove otherwise I'm sure you will walk the walk.

Mukesh: Yes. Well strictly in confidence you will have a job with us as long as you want.

Kevin: That's certainly something you don't hear everyday

Mukesh: Now have you been in contact with Scott Hall?

Kevin: He's been doing a bit better, but he's burnt a lot of bridges. He'll always be a friend to me.

Mukesh: Well I'd like to see how cleaned up he is at this point. If he's sticking to a program, I really think he can contribute.

Kevin: I like Scott as much as anyone, it's just a risky proposition

Mukesh: Sometimes risks are worth taking, and trust me I have enough resources to take those risks.

Kevin: Hey you want to take a chance on Scotty I'm all for it.

Mukesh: I will get in contact with him. Thanks for meeting with me Kevin, I look forward to working with you.

Kevin: Thanks boss.

Scott: Comes along with the territory.

Mukesh: So what are your future plans as far as wrestling goes.

Scott: Well I'm still in top shape, I still got what it takes. So I have no plans of changing that.

Mukesh: Good I see you as a top talent with our company. Your charisma is incredible, your body looks great. I'm glad to hear your excited about wrestling still with all that you've accomplished.

Scott: It's what I know.

Mukesh: Let me be honest I didn't really know what to expect meeting with you. I'm surprised how proper you are.

Mukesh: Well you are outspoken a bit on tv.

Scott: I can't argue you with you there haha.

Mukesh: Okay well good I think we are on the same page then. Great to meet you Scott.

Kevin: Booker hows it going man? Lot of crap going down.

Booker T: Man shit's crazy right now huh? Shitt.

Kevin: What do you think about whats going on?

Booker T: I got no clue man just trying to weight stuff out, and figure out what I'm going to end up doing. What you gona do?

Kevin: I'm getting old, and if a billionaire wants to rent me out for a few years I aint argueing. Might as well make as much money as we can while we can.

Booker T: Ya I hear that's pretty much what I'm thinking. What do you think about him though?

Kevin: Not sure yet, seems like he's a foreign businessman who wants to fufill some childhood dreams. One thing is for certain he's worth 20 billion dollars. Vince without a doubt has his work cut out for him.

Kevin: You know whats weird though?

Booker T: What?

Kevin: He brought up Scotty. Asked me how he was doing, and if he was straight now.

Booker T: Damn man he brought up my brother too. Said something about the school we have down in Texas.

Kevin: Wow really weird man. I gotta get runnin though. I'll get at you this weekend.

Booker T: Alright brother.

Mukesh: Okay Jon we are off to a good start talked to the main talent, and they all seem on the same page. We also are having some good leads with signing some guys, I need you to do me a favor though.

Jon: Yup no problem.

Mukesh: I've been looking over Ring Of Honor's roster, I've already got a few people scouting right now. I'll give you a list in the next few days. I want them signed as soon as possible. There are upwards of 16 wrestlers working for that federation I want signed to either development deals, or to the main roster.

Jon: Yup you give me the list, and we'll get them over here.

Mukesh: Good figures also will be included I just need you to deliver these guys.

Jon: Yup no problem.

Mukesh: Another thing we are going back to the regular ring, I hate that gimmick crap. I want a traditional set up. So I need you to get some of the guys to order several rings. I know this isn't your area, but the guy we hired isn't here until next week so I need someone to get things squared away by Tuesday. And we are having that battle royal for Tuesday so we need that ring.

Jon: Yup got it.

Mukesh: Also, that project we've been working on, make sure you are keeping it under wraps. The two guys on that list I want here by next week's taping no matter what it takes. This will show Vince exactly who's competing against him.

Jon: You got it boss.

Mukesh: We are hearing a lot of outcry from the roster as far as Eric Young is concerned. Call him up, get him back here. Also, have you spoken to Scott Hall?

Jon: Yes according to Scott he's been clean for several months now, and he's been getting back into shape. He sounded pretty with it on the phone.

Mukesh: Fly him down here, I want to have a face to face meeting.

Jon: Okay I'll have him here in the next few days.

Mukesh: Your plate is pretty full, but make sure you get someone to sign the other list of guys as well I'm interested in.

Jon: Got it, and Terry Funk is on board, he's coming down here next Monday to start consulting for us.

Mukesh: Great you are on your A game keep this up. If everything goes right we'll be in great shape next week.

Jon: I'll be sure to update you on everything as soon as I get things finished.

Mukesh: Great.

Mukesh: Terry hows it going?

Terry: Not bad, not bad.

Mukesh: Good, so I need you to help me out here. You've been here awhile. I need your opinion on some people. There are a few with recent legal trouble. Kurt Angle, and Christopher Daniels.

Terry: Well this is off the record right?

Mukesh: Of course

Terry: With Kurt he is worrying a lot of people, he seems to be a bad spot right now.

Mukesh: Well just watch him closely and make sure to let me know if anything weird happens. now what about Christopher Daniels?

Terry: I think that was more of a case of a bad decision. Chris has been here for years, and always helpful.

Mukesh: Okay good. Any other guys with issues right now?

Terry: Overall we are doing pretty good.

Mukesh: Well don't get use to it. We are getting a few big time names in here soon, so I'll need you to keep the balance in the locker room.

Terry: That's not a problem I'll keep an eye out.

Mukesh: We'll also be hiring a few more road agents. So if you have anyone in mind let me know.

Terry: Certainly will.

Mukesh: Ok thanks Terry.

hey man Glad your looking at Roh people like Aries Danielson and Nigel will be good editions to your roster as will Scott Hall and Terry Funk Hope your first show is good will review when up

Necro

Thanks for the feedback. For Terry Funk it's strictly consulting. For Scott Hall I think Mukesh has a soft spot for people in bad situations. And just wants to get him back on his feet. He wont be wrestling much if at all. At this point Mukesh is trying to get some star power in there to get people interested initially. But dont worry Mukesh is about new talent, not the old timers.
