    GERWECK.NET has learned that TNA mainstay “Wildcat” Chris Harris, a member of the multiple time tag team champions America’s Most Wanted, has signed with World Wrestling Entertainment. Apparently Harris’ contract with TNA expired last week, and despite the company wanting him to stay, Harris agreed to terms with WWE.

    For his sake I hope he doesnt go the way of Monty Brown :D

    That's a bit of a surprise. I was expecting to read about Ron Killings when I opened this thread. Harris has got a much better chance of success in WWE than Killings or Monty I think. I also like him more than the other two, although it was a lot easier to like him a couple of years ago before TNA killed my interest in him. Good luck to him

    I wasn't expecting to see his name pop up either.I really liked his work a couple of years ago.Then,with the combination of being involved in crap storylines,I dont think that he gave a **** anymore and he became a fairly average wrestler.I definitley think that he has talent and wish him the best of luck in WWE

    Good news for wWE and Smackdown! Where I assume he'll debut. Hopefully he won't be put onto ECW.

    Seems he has not signed just yet, wouldn't mind seeing him in WWE though!

    PWInsider.com:

    - Despite rumors online, TNA wrestler Chris Harris has not yet signed with World Wrestling Entertainment. It is possible that Harris is leaving but he is still under contract with TNA for at least another week, therefore he cannot legally sign a new deal until his contract officially expires.

    Ah well, i think Harris could do alright he seems to have something about him from what i've seen of him.

    I like Harris from what I have seen of him (haven't watched TNA in about 18 months).
    I'd like to see him do well with the WWE, but they'll probably just bury him on ECW.

    Maybe, just MAYBE, as a result of this, TNA might push James Storm as a serious contender. He is incredible. But again, TNA are too thick to realise this.

    I think Harris could so well in WWE. He'll need a gimmick though. That whole Wildcat thing is a bit generic.

    A bit on Wrestling Observer about what Harris a month ago:
    -- This hasn't gotten any attention, but a month ago, Chris Harris wrote a really interesting pseudo-shoot blog on his official website. Basically, he complains about TNA holding him down, although he appears to be "in character" in the piece.

    For instance, he wrote: "That glass ceiling that I was suppose to break through suddenly had a trap door that fell right on top of me. Dustin Rhodes returned to TNA and cost me to lose the match with Christian. Within days I found myself locked in a feud with a re-creation of Golddust with a sick...evil twist. Nothing against Dustin...because I like him and he has had a great career, but how does this help me? In a matter of weeks I went from the main events to the bottom of the card in matches that were barely talked about. My TV time was cut in half. I was told when we went to 2 hours things would change. The next two months my matches with Dustin at the PPVs were not even mentioned when building for the show. Somehow I managed to get the task of making sure Black Reign made a huge impact in TNA...at Chris Harris' expense!"

    He also complains about all the TV time Kurt Angle has been getting: "I will first say that Kurt has earned his spot in wrestling. He is one of the greatest performers I have ever seen...but how much Kurt Angle do we need. It wasn't that he wasn't good in his role because he is very entertaining. We just don't need 11 segments of Kurt in one show. (I counted one night while watching Impact)"

    He then complains about being left off of their November PPV and how he is losing his passion for wrestling.

    They took it down, for some reason.
