For those of you who pay attention to WWE Smackdown, you might recognize this image:
That's Vladimir Kozlov, standing over WWE Champion Triple H. Vladimir Kozlov has received a huge push in the WWE, and is now working at or near the main-event scene. So what, you ask?
Well, Vladimir Kozlov was given to the WWE by none other than Jerry Jarrett. Maybe that name sounds familiar. You know, he's the one who started TNA, and is father of Jeff Jarrett.
Instead of bringing Oleg Prudius (Kozlov's real name) to TNA to try and get him a contract, Jarrett (partly out of spite, one would have to assume) took this monster of a man, a potential superstar in wrestling over to the WWE, TNA's competition. Kozlov signed with the WWE back in January of 2006.
But, what if TNA had gotten their hands on him first? How would Oleg Prudius have fit in with TNA, and their attempts at becoming a major player in wrestling?
*Note, this is not a WWE vs. TNA thread. Don't care to read about who would use him better. Please just discuss the hypothetical of Prudius in TNA, and how it would have worked.*
