    Out of the above list, who in your mind is TNA's greatest asset?

    If WWE could take one star or group from TNA, who should they take? Losing which star/stars would inflict the most damage on TNA?

    Let's hear your views.

    (Jeff Jarrett wasn't included as he is highly unlikely to leave for the WWE.)

    Christian, mainly because of the larger wrestling audience are mostly aware of him, his potential, the fact that he was an upper midcarder at wwe, on the verge of breaking properly into the main event. If he went back to wwe it would be a big coup for the E, and chances are he could walk right into the main event there. Apart from Sting, he's the only person on that list who could properly compete in the wwe main event right now.

    The Dudley's were stale on wwe, not overly impressed with them on tna either. Stlyes, Daniels, Abyss, etc ... if they went to wwe they'd be lost in the midcard.

    I think theres a good chance that WWE would screw alot of them up if they went there. But my vote go's to Joe.

    Well A.j styles would have a chance,but wouldnt really pass upper mid card and if they could get christian cage 2 come back "with" the nwa championship that would cause some damage.
    Really though,wwe doesnt need to sweat TNA just yet,they have no where near the money the E does and really only have a few good wrestlers the work each PPV,a couple of injurys and they are screwed...

    And think about it,Abyss for example would only be average size in the WWE,HE'S ONLY 380 POUNDS,CHRIST ...

    I think TNAs greatest asset at the moment is peoples attitude toward WWE. I think slowly but surely people are getting tired of Vince and his antics, of the awful storylines, of the god awful talent drain from OVW and of the 'sameyness' of it all.

    TNA seems to be offering a very good alternative, where those who are deserving get pushed to a level where they can compete. I must admit it is odd seeing fellas who supposedly couldnt hack it at WWE doing so well in TNA. Prime example being Monty Brown.

    Also, the fact that Spike TV are getting very high on them, giving them more exposure, and possibly another TV slot proves that TNAs biggest asset is doing what it does well.

    I was going to say someting similar to gimmick but I cant better that with regards to being an alternative and such to WWE poor form as late.

    At the moment, I'd say Joe. I'm still not that big on the guy, but he can certainly pull off classic matches. He's proven that in the X-Division, and he's a big guy who'd easily fit into the World title picture. The fans are totally behind him aswell. Which kinda makes it hard for him to be a heel sometimes, but he's amazing to watch at times

    I wouldn't be of the opinion that Christian would get the majority of WWE fans interested in TNA, because I would say that to most, what they see is a tag-team specialist who never got to the main event in WWE suddenly holding the TNA title. Of course, he does deserve it, but I'm sure a lot of people see it as TNA being a step below WWE
    and really only have a few good wrestlers the work each PPV,a couple of injurys and they are screwed...

    Have you watched the last 4 or 5 TNA ppv's? They've got enough talent to cover ppv's, and guys have been getting injured recently, hasn't adversely affected any shows yet. They suspended Roderick Strong and Austin Aries last week for 2 months, two of their best wrestlers, which they didn't need to do, so they obviously have faith in the rest of the guys to cover their spots

    It was just reported on the Torch hotline that Samoe Joe has signed a deal with TNA for a duration of 5 years. Very good move by TNA.

    Not sure if the deal was 5 years, I heard it was closer to 2 or 3 but I voted Joe, simply the best U.S wrestler today.
