We've all seen the "such and such a performer should go to this company" thread so many times that I think many of us are about to vomit if we see another one along those lines. So let's change it up and play a little game here. The following scenario is entirely unrealistic, but let's pretend it isn't for the sake of the discussion.
Vince and Dixie get together and realize that each one has performers under contract that the other one desires. They decide to trade performers like baseball players (the really unrealistic part, which would be like UPS selling their drivers to FedEx.) You get to play God of the Mind with both Vince and Dixie; which performers switch companies?
This isn't 'Nam; there are rules.
1) Trades have to be considered even- to both sides. You could send Santino Marella to TNA/IW for James Storm, but you're going to look like an ass and defeat the entire purpose of the thread. If you feel you have made an uneven trade, and can't resolve the difference, you may choose to add "cash consideration". If you go this route, you should say if it's minor or significant.
1a) Trades do not have to be one-for-one. You could send a multitude of prospects to TNA/IW in exchange for Bobby Roode, provided that you feel that TNA/IW would get enough from those prospects to offset the loss of Roode.
2) Current contract status is not to be considered. Asking people to take into consideration when a performer is coming out of contract is way too much work to ask. Assume that all performers are signed on their current deals to terms that make waiting for expiration unrealistic.
3) Performers do not have the option to refuse a trade. It doesn't matter if someone thinks that TNA/IW is a better spot for them to perform; if they're traded, they're moving.
4) If you know enough about ROH to work out a 3-way trade, more power to you.
5) Explain your choices! I can't make you do this, but it always makes a post look better when you explain your thought process, rather then spit a bunch of information at people.
For the purposes of discussion, Alex Shelley shall be considered a WWE performer. Matt Morgan shall be considered a TNA/IW performer. This decision is somewhat arbitrary, but it's been made now, so it's that much easier.
Let's make some deals.
