Buff Bagwell Says He's In Talks With TNA
- Thread starter It's Damn Real!
- Start date
This is precisely TNA's problem nowadays. They would rather bring in a washed up has been[or in Buff's case, a never was]. I didn't mind Bagwell so much in the beginning of WCW or even during the NWO. He was mostly a background player, so it was fine. He helped round out the lower to mid card divisions. He was somewhat passable as a character and even decent in-ring. This is 2012 and the sooner that Hogan/Bischoff realize that, the sooner they can stop using has beens and start using the young talent and TNA originals they aren't using to current full potential. Storm, Roode, AJ, Daniels, Samoa Joe. Hell, even a breakout by Magnus would be unexpectedly different and interesting to watch unfold. Seeing Buff Bagwell again isn't exactly high on my list of expectations for TNA. I don't think many others would want to see that either. Buff is not the stuff. Just another waste of space and tv time.
It really depends on what they attend to do with Buff.. Could he be an addition to Aces and Eights? He could be a solid reason behind the Aces and Eights Group. It would mean a lot more if Hogan ran down Aces & Eights about trying to destroy the business.
Then one of the Aces and Eights members... Says something like "This is exactly what you tried to do with the NWO Hogan. You wanted to Destroy WCW and you did."
Hogan tries to state a reason why its different and it didn't go down like that. Then the Aces and Eights members says thats BS.... "I was right beside you the whole time and you're move cost me my lucrative contract and killed the business. The he reveals himself as Bagwell.
If they're trying to make the NWO connection who could they really bring in to make that connection?
Hogan, Sting, Jarrett wouldnt make sense
Nash, Hall, and Steiner are done....
Its the only reason to me to bring Buff back

Well Devon did say this last week on impact that the guy he was going to reach out to can be quite arrogent and if you want arrogent in this buissness then you need look no further then Buff Bagwell. The only thing I don't understand is that if Bagwell is coming to TNA then what can he offer them now that he could not offer them 10 years ago. Sure Buff is not a bad wrestler, but he is in his 40's now and there is a lot of guys on the roster that are just as good as him who are a lot young, it just don't make sence.

Buff Bagwell is in talks with TNA?
Well, in that case it'll be an exciting year for wrestling. I heard Max Moon is in talks with the WWE.
The new era has truly begun!
C'mon, TNA called up the Nasty Boys and Disco Inferno before they called up Buff Bagwell and that was during a time of extreme desperation.
Dude's just trying to make a couple of dirt sheet headlines so potential bookers notice he's still active and possibly set him up with a couple of gigs. Nothing wrong with that either. Bischoff got to Tweet about it (thus get a stiffy), Bagwell got some attention and the dirt sheets got some clicks. Hope he makes a buck out of it.

I don't think even TNA is stupid enough to waste money on Buff. I liked him, he was entertaining, but there's no point in bringing in more guys like him to dirty up the locker room. Never-was's like him won't do anything for a company like TNA...having Double J around is bad enough

I thought Bagwell was in a serious motorcycle accident and was nearly dead? Glad he is ok anyway, hopefully that was all a crap rumour.
I dont see him turning up in TNA any time soon, maybe as a 1 off appearance but half the audience would have no clue who he is. Fair play to him and Bisch if this is just a way of getting Buff's name out there, but there are 100 indie talents or ex WWE wrestlers out there who would be better signings for TNA than "The Stuff"
