How Will King Mo Be Booked Once He's on the Active Roster?

[LegendKiller716]

Just a thought here, what if TNA was able to book Kurt Angle vs King Mo in a sanctioned MMA fight?

I think it would be interesting. Kurt has been talking about a potential MMA fight, so why not do it in TNA to make money for his own company? Also there is a possibility that King Mo can bring MMA fans to watch the event. The only downside I see is if King Mo looses to a non-MMA guy he might look weak.

Either way, I think it's worth considering.

It would never work in a million years and it should never happen in Pro-Wrestling....EVER!

If you're talking about a legit MMA bout, King Mo would slaughter Angle cause he has so many nagging injuries, a broken neck and he's 43. If Daniel Puder could embarrass Angle back in the 2004 Tough Enough competition then King Mo could do it in seconds without breaking a sweat. Honestly, all he would need to do is just slap on a quick Rear Naked Choke as soon as the match starts and then it's over, Kurt would have to tap instantly or risk damaging his neck even more. Secondly, they would never let Angle compete in a real MMA fight, he tried to get on The Ultimate Fighter but Dana White said he didn't pass his medicals. Angle talking about getting into MMA is just a pipe-dream, it will never happen for him, he's so battered & broken down.

If you're talking a staged MMA fight, no MMA fans will tune in to see it cause they are fans of real fighting, this would be an insult to them and I don't think Pro-Wrestling fans would be interested in seeing it either. The majority of times Boxing matches, Sumo matches, MMA matches etc. have been booked in wrestling, fans have chanted "BORING" and "WE WANT WRESTLING". And seeing as it's TNA, this would just be a poor mockery - remember AJ Styles vs. Frank Trigg? Jeff Jarrett's MMA fights? - but then again, in any wrestling company it would be a poor mockery.

I don't see him lasting too long in TNA, but while they have him I am sure he will do some high profile feuds. I could see him against Angle for sure, and it looks like he an Bobby Roode will have issue with each other. Will be interesting to see how well he can go in the ring, and while he lasts I am sure they will use him as much as they can.

King Mo, isn't going to do anything major. He's just going to be to TNA what Mike Tyson was to WWE. A major name in combat sports who may get into some storylines with people, referee a match, etc. but probably isn't ever going to be in a big match over a title, or a match at all.

I can see one of King Mo's feuds in the future would be with Samoa Joe. I think the potential on that feud would be awesome if executed correctly.

Just from what I seen of King Mo last week, I hope he doesn't stay in TNA too long. He oversells things and is the stereotypical outside guy coming into pro wrestling just for media coverage. It isn't like he wants to be in wrestling just because he loves it. Another story of an underacheiver coming in to do something meaningful elsewhere to see if it sticks. This is Impact Wrestling's main problem. Instead of going after big name free agents like an MVP or John Morrison, they choose King Mo? To be honest, I am not a big fan of MMA nor do I even know who King Mo is. It's really just a shameful attempt by both TNA & Strikeforce to capatilize on media. People should be on television because of skill and merit and not to pander to the media.
