Here is a quote from a news posting on a wrestling site.
"Regarding Ken Anderson (Mr. Kennedy), TNA is still expected to sign the former WWE Superstar, who is contractually free to join the company at anytime.
There are rumblings that he might not start until next year, but others believe the company is is trying to keep his debut a surprise and that he will appear at this Sundays Bound for Glory pay-per-view. Jason Powell of the Pro Wrestling Torch strongly feels he will be making his TNA debut this Sunday. "
What do people think about this? If, and when this happened should TNA keep a big signing like this a secret? or market the hell out of it to try and get more PPV buys?
I can see how a wrestling company would like to add shock value to their signings because of all the jumping around in the 90's but in my opinion it would be smarter to do the vignettes, show the commercials, hype the shit out of a thing like that and not hide it and let it slip under the radar.
Yeah a surprise like that might shock a die hard TNA fan but for the rest of the world the debut would be subpar and there would be no momentum for the character coming in. Thoughts?
