I haven't listened to the interview yet (it will probably be available soon on
www.angle-online.com). I don't really know how to judge (I'm a big Angle's fan so it would be quite subjective), it depends on the context and I will first listen to the show before really making a complete judgment but just three things I want to talk over now...
First of all, as far as Hulk Hogan is concerned, in my view, his arrival in TNA wrestling would be both positive and negative.. I'm personally against it because of Hogan's ego and strict demands, and let's be honest, TNA needs a new blood, they have to 'create' their own stars. Of course I'm not against the arrival of a few big names in the company, because some of them could help the young talents but let's face it, Hogan has always had a reputation of a "career killer" (I'm sure you know why Ricky Steamboat, for example, never won the big one.. And this is just one example among many others). On the other hand, it could be great for the ratings and for TNA's worldwide influence thanks to the Hulkster's fame in the wrestling business, but even financially, Hulk is too demanding and I'm sure he shows his "interest" for TNA just to put pressure on Vince (money, money and... money).
Secondly, I agree with the fact that Big Show is a great guy and a talented performer but unfortunately he is badly hurt and I don't know if he will be able to make an in-ring comeback one day. Furthermore we have to admit that Vince Macmahon has "killed" the Giant's credibility. Paul deserved to be undefeated when he made his debut in WWE, it was the right time to set up an interesting "nobody can beat him" storyline. Kurt Angle pointed that out in the interview he made with Bubba last October, Big Show could have made more money and a bigger name for himself in Japan where wrestling giants are highly respected.
Finally, Chris Jericho in TNA?? Yes, definitely a great idea! Y2J is still young and could help the company. He has never been hurt, he has always been regular and above all else, this guy can do it all: he is charismatic, talented in the ring and has a solid connection with the wrestling fans. Chris Jericho would be a great addition to the TNA roster, there is no doubt about it.
I'm looking forward to listening to the interview!
