Super Crazy to TNA?

[SpiralHands]

Ok so I just read on the main board that Super Crazy has just been let go by WWE. Poor old Super Crazy, in ECW he had a huge fan base every loved the guy in WWE quite a few fans cheered for him but he was nothing more than a jobber, however now hes free could he have more of a future in TNA? He has got some good wrestling skills, he could easily compete in the X Division and put some great matches on as well as give out a ton of experience. But most of all he could appeal to the Latin market that TNA always try to gain. So my question would be, should Super Crrazy be hired by TNA? and if so what would he be good for?

I'm torn on this subject. While I do like SUper Crazy and feel like he has enough talent to be in the X-Divison he would be just another "reject" in TNA. Davari was able to make the transition and now is a top x-division heel so Crazy maybe able to, and the X-Division seems to be falling apart so maybe Super Crazy could be used to make the division alittle more fuller. I would rather him either team back up with Juvetued or Pscichosis and reform the Mexicools because I feel like they could be good for the tag divison and with their size and quickness they could put on some good matches with MCMG & LAX. But I think it is too early to tell if Super Crazy will be going to TNA or if he will help the division any either.

I really hope he goes to TNA. Super Crazy is such a talent in the ring and i'd hate for him to only work independent bookings. I love watching him wrestle and it will defiantly make me watch TNA more. Super Crazy would be an amazing X Division star, and i'd love it. I hope he goes to TNA because I think it's the perfect place for him, and I love every one of his matches.

 

[Dead Kennedy]

That could be a great move for TNA. He's a good worker and is a perfect fit for X-Division action. Hell, Daivari had some success going to TNA...Crazy should definitely try to talk with TNA. I know I'd watch it. ...Okay, so probably not, but it'd be cool to know that Super Crazy may be getting the due he never got in WWE as an Impact Zone Player. Or don't they refer to it as the Impact Zone anymore? I'm really clueless now x_x

 

[Shock]

Super Crazy. Talented. High flyer. Great wrestler. Underrated. Man, if he went to TNA, he'd finally get a chance. The X Division needs a guy like him. He could definitely climb the metaphorical ladder fast. I'd love to see Super Crazy vs. Sheik Abdul Bashir for the title. He'd win it in one try. Now, if he could find a powerhouse partner, he could even add something to the tag team division. That would be great as well. Super Crazy = great addition to TNA.

I see that this post was written with the mentality that TNA is so hard up and desperate that they sign anybody and everybody let go by the WWE. Sigh. Well let me clear this up a bit for you that actually either assume this or believe this should be so. In many of the other stars that TNA signed that are alleged WWE rejects, there were certain qualities that they sought.

1. BG James- BJ is uncanny on the mic and has a natural style about him that meshed well with other in TNA. He was able to mesh well with the TNA talent and provided some instant locker room leadership with his experience. He was also able to provide first hand accounts of how backstage politics can ruin your career.

2. Kip James- Now come on. You can't tell me that you didn't want to see a NAO reunion. And that is what he was there for.

3. Kurt Angle- How could you NOT sign a man with his resume?

4. Christian Cage- It was a major signing because he left WWE on his own accord, under his own terms and got the chance to shine.

5. Booker T- Same as Angle.

And that leads us to Super Crazy. What does he have to offer TNA? Hispanic market? No. TNA has a deal with federations in Mexico any time they need Mexican wrestlers. High flyer? Well maybe, but Super Crazy is so out of shape that it's not even funny. Notoriety? Hmm. Well it all depends. If Super Crazy can be Super Crazy, then he might do a thing or two on name alone. But if Super Crazy's name is the property of WWE, then it will be a pointless fiasco. So pretty much, signing him could end up getting you a fat, out of shape reject who may have to be called something else. Especially if TNA wants to market him.

To be honest, it's not worth it. Super Crazy is old and looks awful. He's not an on air personality who could work a mic and has been reduced to little more than a comedy act in the WWE. He has nothing that TNA wants or needs at the moment. Therefore I believe that TNA will be taking a pass on this insane luchador. Perhaps, if he got one one of Suzanne Summers's Ab Roller Pluses and put it to good use, then he might be worth looking at. Otherwise, he should be let be to do the indy circuit and internationals.

I agree with Spawn. TNA should NOT sign Super Crazy. There was good reasoning behind many of the other major signings of former WWE superstars to TNA. He forgot Team 3D but the reasoning behind their release was that noone in WWE likes Bubbas attitude and the fact that he works really stiff. But back to Crazy. He is chubby and he'd be useless if they couldn't use his Super Crazy persona. TNA has practically given up on the X-Division so bringing him in for that is a mute point. He can't work the stick so he can't be built into a future star. Instead of bringing in so many free agents build up the talent you have. No TNA shouldn't hire Super Crazy. In fact they should actually be releasing people not signing more "talent".

 

[Buzz]

According to other reports Super Crazy left the WWE on his own free will as he did not feel he was getting the push he deserved and had been told he would get so he wishes to go elsewhere to be able to wrestle to his full ability.

However, not only did he waive his non-compete clause but he also agreed to sign to NOT go to TNA.

Even if he didn't sign the last bit I'm still unsure as to whether I would want him to or not.

On the one hand there is no denying that the talent that he has would do well on TNA (although not to say they don't have their own!) and there is potential for him doing very well there whether a singles or tag team competitor. He would bring his high flying, fast moving moves to the ring and he can still electrify the crowd, imo.
However, there is also a high probability that he may be left to stagnate in a mid card section and still feel as if he is not being used to the best of his wrestling ability. This would cause him to feel as if he ahs gone from being underused in one company to just being under used in another - and considering there have already been rumours that due to the current economic crisis, TNA may have to be relesing people from the company anyway - would they really be hiring someone new at this moment in time - especially if he was hoping for a push over some of the TNA roster they already have that are currently left in the shadows?

Afro is correct. While some things I don't agree with him on (Like Booger T & Billy), he is right about Angle, Cage, & Kip. Those three brought what the up and comers of TNA were lacking. REAL experience & Leadership. Super Crazy will bring nothing worth signing him for. TNA has a 60 man roster, where are the other 35-40 we do NOT see on TV weekly? OBVIOUSLY TNA seen something they liked about them or they wouldn't have signed them! Why not take one of those guys and prep them then PUSH THEM!?

This makes the point in case about TNA walking the WCW Green Mile. Don't worry about the 40 wrestlers wasting away in the back, lets go sign another former WWE talent then when cuts come, lets fire the people that put in their hard work to make TNA as big as it is now! Come on guys, Super Crazy? It's almost like some TNA fans are really WWE fans and they want TNA to be a ECW where the people they have a hard time pushing go to get a push.

BTW, I can't believe that the same day his release was given, you all jumped on the HIRE SUPER CRAZY TNA Thread.

I agree with what has been said about super crazy. He can contribute close to nothing by joining TNA. He is not in shape cant wrestle like he use to and really has close to nothing when it comes to name value here in the states. TNA should not pick up all of the WWE's scraps only the ones that can contribute to the company. Besides he will probably end up going to mexico to wrestle probably has some sort of fan base over there.

I like Super Crazy, but at his age (35), I can't really see what he can really provide that someone else who is younger and a great worker can't. I would much rather see TNA get a great younger worker from the indy's like from ROH or PWG such as a Chris Hero, Austin Aries, Roderick Strong, Human Tornado, etc. I just don't see what Super Crazy can do that a much younger and hungrier wrestler can't. Don't get me wrong because I like Super Crazy, but I feel that TNA is better served getting younger and newer talent.

 

[Rusty]

I can see Super Crazy in TNA within the near future. I'm not implying that TNA will sign anyone they can, but I think Super Crazy could be a great addition to the X Division. I like Crazy and I think he does indeed have talent, he just wasn't utilized very well by the WWE. He was treated like a jobber but I believe TNA could actually use him very well. He can put on a good match with his fast paced style and he can possibly make TNA bigger and more noticeable in Mexico. The WWE is very big in Mexico, so I can't see why TNA wouldn't want to reach out to the Mexican audience.

He has the look and the size to make it in TNA. He can feud with some of the X Division talent such as: Shiek Abdul Bashir, Petey Williams, Jay Lethal, Eric Young, Curry Man and many more. After that, I'd love to see him as a part of LAX so he can feud with some of the tag teams such as Beer Money, Team 3D and The Motor City Machine Guns. I can't see him moving past the tag team division, he just isn't that good to be a main eventer in TNA.

I think TNA should give him a go since the WWE never did. He deserves a mini push in TNA. If he doesn't improve or show much potential, they can always release him. He could be entertaining if booked correctly, but I really want this guy to suceed. With Deuce, Paul London and Chuck Palumbo being released, Crazy realistically doesn't stand much of a chance being hired by TNA. TNA are better off choosing London over Crazy, but I'd love to see Crazy attempt to succeed.

 

[FromTheSouth]

If TNA pushes him after he spent his entire WWE career jobbing, what would it say about TNA?

Kayfabe wise, it would make the talent look second rate. This guy couldn't beat Hornsoggle, but now he's challenging for a title?

Non-kayfabe wise, it would make TNA look desperate. Signing Kurt Angle is a coup for TNA, signing Supercrazy adds to an already clogged roster.

The last two Impacts have been great. The new factioning storyline has me wondering when the Guns are going to turn and when Chrisitian is going to fuck everyone over. The show is organized, it flows well, and everyone is being used appropriately. Don't go trying to add to the roster for the sake of adding to the roster.

I don't think he will go to TNA, I believe he will try to go back to Mexico. If he lost weight there are many more options for him down there I think. The business is changing quite a bit down there and things are happening that may be good for the business but time will tell on that front.

As for his name considering he was called Super Loco before he switched to Super Crazy (which is dumb and I never really understood why promotions do that. Like in AAA they had Abismo Negro and then they brought in Black Abyss. Really really stupid.) I really don't think that matters much as all you have to do is change the language you use.

I had to laugh though when someone suggested Austin Aries go to TNA. He already was in TNA and they called him Austin Starr and look at how far that got him he was so happy with his role he left............
