mike bibby Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Going to TNA only brings you stock down. Avoid that place at all costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sturginho Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 He did own and run his own wrestling promotion briefly so he does have some experience, limited as it may beI knew he was a wrestling fan but didn't realise he was so involved in the business, apparently he has a lot of contacts in the indy scene and he used to own and run Resistance Pro Wrestling, it will be interesting to see what he adds to the product.Also I wonder which wrestler is going to bagsie Bullet with Butterfly Wings?
