Coming out of retirement...

Who would you like to see "come out of retirement" and join TNA. By retirement I would mean someone who has notable face value on a national scale with someone like WWF(E), WCW, etc. This could be in any role.


My choice, even though I don't know how much it would work now, is Rick Martel. His push in WCW before his injury really intrigued me and I really got behind him. I'd like to see him in a role of a manager with some limited wrestling.

Re: Coming out of retirement...

Rick Martel huh? I dont know. I think that would kinda make TNA look worse at this point. Most wrestling fans would be like "Are you serious?" and kinda laugh him out the door. Now before you kill me, I am not saying that Martel is a bad choice by any means. Its just that most fans would probably not relate to him and think of him as a B-rated wrestler.

I think the obvious choice would be Bret Hart in a managerial role, but Orlando is too far away from Canada and he is probably making a nice paycheck off WWE royalties at this point. Not to mention really nothing to connect him to the TNA ring and history.

Lesnar would be nice too, but I am also in la-la land if I thought that was feasible.

Shit.........Martel is much more realistic than any of my ideas. Reps Griff.

Re: Coming out of retirement...

The Ultimate Warrior!.... No really. He would definitely get some ratings.

The only other big name I can think of would be Randy Savage.

Lex Luger, Sid & Ultimate Warrior. Granted they would all suck, but even TNA couldn't screw up the build for this.

Re: Coming out of retirement...

I've heard that Sid is actually in decent ring shape and would be good to go. He just wants it to be on a scale that really only the WWE could have offered, but because of the way the industry has been spiraling down, won't happen outside of Mania.

Warrior would get some ratings for sure, and if things go well in Spain, it can't be considered outside the realm of possibilities

He's semi retired. He still works Indy shows but in his spare time he is a WWE trainer.
