Would Christian Cage Jump Ship To WWE?

Posted by Donny | Tuesday, September 02, 2008

Christian Cage's current contract with TNA is set to expire before the end of the year and that a return to WWE is not out of the question. The other contracts (in addition to Christian Cage) that are running up over the next few months within TNA also include Team 3D, Kevin Nash and Awesome Kong.

With the way things are on SmackDown right now, there would certainly be a spot open for him to return and possibly feud or reunite with Edge. Christian was said to be burned out from the tough WWE schedule after his first stint with them, but has recently noticed that since he is 35 years old, his career could be winding down and wants to make as much money as he can now. Christian is very good with money though and has saved up over the years.

Christian is said to be happy with his current schedule and pay that TNA gives him, but he has been known to criticize the creative team in the past, and now that one of his good friends, Scott D'Amore just left the TNA creative team that could be enough reason for Christian to make the jump over to WWE.

At this point, it would be hard to trust Christian as well. Upon his departure from WWE in 2005, he told everyone that he wouldn't be switching companies when he had already made the deal with TNA.

While many feel he will probably stay with TNA, even Christian said himself "never say never" about a WWE return in his final interview after Taboo Tuesday.

On Saturday morning, wrestling legend Walter "Killer" Kowalski passed away in Boston, Massachusetts.

During an in-ring career that spanned from the 1940s to the 1970s, Kowalski was one of the most celebrated - and respected - grapplers of our time.

In the golden era of the sport in the 1950s when millions of Americans and Canadians discovered - and fell in love with - televised wrestling, Kowalski was one of the first superstars to become a household name.

Each and every week, fans tuned in to witness Kowalski battling other greats such as Buddy Rogers, Dr. Bill Miller, Whipper Billy Watson and Gorgeous George, regularly using his feared "Iron Claw" to beat opponents.

Kowalski also became famous for an incident in 1954 when he knee-dropped fellow wrestler Yukon Eric, tearing off a piece of his ear in the process. The move made headlines and forever earned Kowalski his "Killer" nickname.

In addition to multiple title reigns and worldwide acclaim, Kowalski was also regarded as one of the greatest teachers the sport has ever known. Following his retirement, Kowalski opened his own wrestling school outside Boston, Massachusetts, that served as the start for dozens of current and former wrestling superstars, including TNA's Frankie Kazarian and Roxxi Laveaux as well as names like Big John Studd, Triple H, Joanie Laurer, Albert/A-Train and many more.

"I am very saddened by Walter's passing," TNA founder Jeff Jarrett told TNAwrestling.com. "He was not only a trailblazer for an entire generation of wrestlers, but he also passed on his knowledge and experience after stepping away from the ring. That's something you don't always see from the veterans of this sport. He will be missed by everyone in our business."

Everyone at TNA Wrestling sends our thoughts and prayers out to the family of Walter "Killer" Kowalski.

Foley Agrees To Sign TNA Contract

Posted by Donny | Sunday, August 31, 2008

According to Pro Wrestling Torch, Mick Foley has in fact agreed to sign with TNA once his WWE contract expires on September 1st. If something major goes wrong, or WWE offers him a billion dollars by the end of the month, he can change his mind, but it's almost certain he will sign.

Rumors have been floating around for the past two weeks about the jump and the reason the specifics have been kept quiet is because he was talking exclusively with TNA President Dixie Carter, with everyone else being kept in the dark. There have already been merchandising ideas discussed, including a T-shirt, according to PWInsider.com.

Foley became disgruntled after Vince McMahon was constantly screaming through the announcer's headset, telling him what to say. He felt he was being held back from becoming a great commentator.

There is no details on whether he will be a regular wrestler, announcer or on the creative side, although all three scenarios offer their own boost to the TNA product.
