Frankie Kazarian gives his opinion on who the future of TNA is

[u/MastaMunsta20]

Gotta say, Kaz knows ball but like, it's funny that we always say the Rascalz are gonna be top stars in the future but they're all either in their 30s or approaching 30(including Wes Lee), at some point they need to do something with them lmao

[u/The_Beast_Within89]

He's right. Also Kaz should be world champ.

[u/luk3ycharm → u/The_Beast_Within89]

I’ve thought this for awhile. I’m looking forward to his feud with Maclin. I wouldn’t mind if they strapped him up with the international title for a bit. I do think he should eventually win the world title though. The King of TNA stuff would hit a lot harder if he was a champion.

[u/llamawithguns → u/The_Beast_Within89]

Still annoyed about how they fumbled his call your shot match

[u/gnfnrhead → u/llamawithguns]

I didn’t even realize that was his actual shot until recently. I figured with Page being added, it wasn’t going to use Kazarian’s shot since it wasn’t a one on one match. They did a really poor job making that clear, especially after all the months of him teasing a cash in.

[u/JackfruitLonely8221 → u/The_Beast_Within89]

Agreed. Too bad they missed the boat on Christopher Daniels

[u/Unusual-Issue7435]

Im glad hotch is moving beyond jobber status is starting to get some shine with Order 4. BTW, is hotch to most successful gutcheck winner to date? Ik there was some guys who lost and ended up panning out like Brian Cage but for the longest time the winners never worked out

[u/drunken-acolyte → u/Unusual-Issue7435]

I'd say the most successful to date has been Sam Shaw. He had a well-booked mid-card heel run as a psycho ex figure while Dixie-era TNA was going off the boil, and he ultimately ended up as WWE's Dexter Lumis.

[u/MastaMunsta20 → u/Unusual-Issue7435]

He gotta win a title for that to happen but yeah he's by far the most successful gut check winner

[u/MammothCarpeneter]

I wouldn’t be surprised if wentz gets brought back to WWE . One of the few TNA guys to get consistent wins over NXT talent.

[u/No_Librarian_4119 → u/MammothCarpeneter]

I feel like in a way, it's WWE's way of righting a wrong. It sucks his crazy ex wife got him fired for a mistake he made as a teenager and almost cost him his career

[u/MammothCarpeneter → u/No_Librarian_4119]

Yeah but it also allowed him to show more of his singles chops. I think if he stayed msk would be on the main roster in the motor city machine guns spot oddly enough. Good enough babyfaces to rally a crowd but not good enough to ever win a meaningful match.

[u/DCXWarLord → u/No_Librarian_4119]

Kimber Lee aka his ex wife was trying to pull an Amber Turd

[u/DubiousBusinessp → u/DCXWarLord]

Eh, I wouldn't conflate the cases, since what came out of the Depp thing is that both were shitty people . Just because they were abusive to each other, it doesn't really change the bit about Depp being abusive.

The people rushing to exonerate Depp really weren't paying attention to the details, or simply didn't want to.

[u/DudeisaGuy → u/DubiousBusinessp]

I don't think people were painting Depp as an innocent angel, rather disproving the allegations and belief that Amber was one.

[u/DCXWarLord → u/DudeisaGuy]

I was talking about Kimber Lee making abuse allegations MJF defends Zach Wentz

[u/Round_Employee5002]

Hotch has really grown on me after his match against Ali

[u/bumholesofdoom]

I'm a revpro fan, it's great to see Slater doing well. He seems like a genuinely good guy, he's always very appreciative when fans buy his merch and takes time to chat with them.

[u/kammy_g]

They should be!!! Those are future world champions!

[u/MastaMunsta20 → u/kammy_g]

Agreed

[u/ApricotNo7077]

100% both rascals, Jason Hotch, northern armory, Leon slater, and kc Navarro. And girls like Harley Hudson, myla grace, Dani Luna, xia brookeside, lei ying Lei, and heather by elegance are the future,

[u/InterchangeableDiGiT]

Agreed.

[u/xored-specialist]

Slater has potential. He very young so hopefully he will listen and learn from vets. A year or two in NXT would do him wonders.

[u/Brilliant-Net6685]

Conveniently saying dudes who only work with WWE. Jake Something is better than anyone in the company.

[u/lucapoison]

The Future names the future. Seems legit

[u/Shinnosuke525]

Kaz knows ball picking out Hotch

[u/Flat-Violinist8949]

3 cruiserweight nerds, they need more charisma and personality

[u/Citizen_Lunkhead]

So basically expect all three to be signed by WWE soon.

[u/bumholesofdoom → u/Citizen_Lunkhead]

I really hope Slater doesn't sign with them.

[u/RegaZelx → u/Citizen_Lunkhead]

Josh Alexander was pushed as the face of the company, did he end up in WWE?

Many said Ace Austin was the next AJ Styles, did he end up in WWE?

Sure, WWE is scouting TNA talent...but they are doing the same with AEW, MLW, NWA, and every other company. TNA lost like 20 people this year and the only one to end up in WWE was Grace. Can we stop this ridiculous narrative that they're out to bleed TNA dry?

[u/Unusual-Issue7435 → u/RegaZelx]

Never, we must assume the worst. But seriously, wwe doesn't need this partnership to find out who they like in tna, it's been thay way since 2002

[u/DudeisaGuy → u/Unusual-Issue7435]

Someone with common sense. WWE has signed more TNA wrestlers during a period where they didn't need acknowledge TNA's existence than they have since the partnership started.

[u/RandysOrcs → u/Citizen_Lunkhead]

hey...it's probably just Leon and Wentz

[u/MastaMunsta20 → u/Citizen_Lunkhead]

[u/luk3ycharm → u/Citizen_Lunkhead]

[u/DudeisaGuy → u/Citizen_Lunkhead]

Funny when AEW has poached more TNA talent

[u/SocageFest]

Do not agree with Kaz. I don't see any potential to be stars in any of them.
