Brian in Austin
Getting Noticed By Management
Yeah you are. From what I understand it was only for that time and was paid by per-showing so it may have seemed stupid but honestly, it wasn't a bad move. The reaction she got on the first night she showed up proves that point.
The comments from Bischoff speak volumes about his thoughts on her in-ring ability and what she brought to the table. Clearly, she was out of shape, didn't get the reaction he had hoped for (even though he doubted it because he was against bringing her in for the event in the first place) and then she was sent packing because of her involvement in this latest movie. From what I've read, TNA was considering more appearances for her, but it seems that this movie deal nixed any chance of that happening.
In the end, it's TNA bringing in yet another out of work, out of shape former wrestler in hopes of getting a cheap and temporary pop. It didn't work as it had no lasting impact on their programming.
So no, I wasn't wrong.
