Eric young...Do you think he is tna world champion material

Ok i wanted your guys thought on eric young and his future.Basically things like is he world title material and stuff anywho here are my thoughts...

Recently i have been shocked at what TNA have been doing with eric young.Stuff like eric being sharkboy's sidekick type of guy and stuff it really bothers me.When he first hit TNA he had a full on shy gimmick which i thought was a great way to push young when tna feels the right time.But it is as if they have changed there mind.he won a battle royal at BFG 07 and where is his shot.

Eric young is also a very safe athelete i mean he knows how to execute everythign correctly and isnt a risk in the ring.he is very old school also with his movset which would be brilliant for a push but TNA dont get it.they give the title to two guys christian cage and kurt angle.Sure they are a great talent but they are making the same mistakes WCW did in the early 2000's with booker t and jeff jarrett.

TNA have a great talent of top notch atheletes here is a few:

AJ styles
Tomko
Eric Young
Chris Parkes
Booker T
Rhyno
james storm
kevin nash (maybe Not)
Judus mesias
Matt morgan
Scott steiner
samoa Joe


So seriosuly what the hell is happening.the have all these guys and there doing a damn thing about it except putting them in sad gimmicks were there either fighting over a belt for a beer drinking contest or a mouse.Also even on a sadder not TNA has bought in 2 new faces Curryman and raisha saeed.First with curryman,One of the worst gimmicks ever Like is he suppose to be mr Fuji or soemthing cause it is way to sad to even be on TV.The next person this raisha lady look i aint rasict but come on a muslim in wrestling what is wrestling turning into.Sure she is muslim but that aint the point its the gimmick it is just sad and useless and cant get anywhere using it anyway but to eric.


I Think eric could carry the title quite well a bit like what i said with tomko.he has an amazing charisma and in ring talent and Tna really need to open there eyes before WWE discovers him.

What i think eric should do with tomko and maybe AJ is build a Kliq backstage it would be a very smart move in my opinion and could work well for their carrers.

Any what is your opinion on eric young and his ability in tna

To me this is like asking whether Santino is World Heavyweight Champion material. Nothing Young has ever done in the ring has interested me, and he is simply a comedy character who would never be credible enough to hold the title without making it look like a joke.

Looking at Eric Young right now, I could never see him as World Champion material. They made a joke of him, even though it's entertaining, I could never take him seriously. He is in a stable with other "super heroes". Thats enough for me to believe that he won't be a main eventer. But hey, things could change, but I find it unlikely.

Definitely Not. The TNA world champ is Eric young and the WWE champ is Punk? Young needs to get TNA to drop the gimmick and grow up! His current gimmick is funny, but its tired and old and needs to stop. Him jumping at the Pyro is getting as boring as the fans chanting 'WHAT?'. I think its fair to say he wont be winning any championships with this gimmick, and if he does he wont have them for long.

Looking at Eric Young for the last three years, I could never see him holding a single title period. It'd be a joke. Just like with Santino.

Eric Young did have that run back in the beer drinking days with James Storm where he was extremely interesting as an underdog face. I figured that he could at least reach levels or Rhino, but never TNA Championship levels. Kinda weird seeing him fill in for Scott Hall in the main event of a ppv, and now being Super Eric.

If Eric Young becomes World Champ....TNA can start digging it's grave. (Will Eric surprise us and become the next Stone Cold?) LOL not likely.

You're kidding me? If he wins a title, I'm boycotting TNA and never, ever watching it again. It would be a terrible decision. They have much better wrestlers to choose from, why choose a complete joke of a character.

How is Curry Man supposed to be like Mr Fuji?

Curry Man is a comedic face while Mr Fuji was a devious heel. There's nothing similar between the two.

Raisha Saeed isn't even really Muslim. She's Cheerleader Melissa and she was born in L.A.

Anyways, what's wrong with being a "Muslim" wrestler? You may not think you're racist, but having a problem with a wrestler portraying a Muslim-like wrestler is pretty racist.

As for Eric Young, I can easily see him being a future TNA World Champion. All they need to do is drop the comedy gimmick and build him up. He's been one of the more talented wrestlers that has stepped in TNA. He has an old school feel mixed with some newer moves. I thought he looked great in the 6 Man Tag last year at Turning Point. Had TNA kept pushing him as a serious face, he could of been a real contender to being in the King of the Mountain this year.

lol trust you to have the opposte opinion of everyone else. >_>

Dropping the comedy gimmick is easier said than done. First of all, I can't see TNA dropping it because all he is is comedy. Aside from that, he really doesn't interest me at all in terms of his ring skills. He has now been a joke character for too long to ever be credible in my opinion, whether they tried to push him as a serious face or not.
