They wouldn't have paid for Heyman if it was real.

I know that's the nature of the business, but I can't blame him for not being a fan of that schedule. GRUELING. It's what largely led to Kurt Angle leaving the WWE, which is a real shame. I wish they could have found a compromise of some kind. Now Angle--one of the best all around pro wrestlers/entertainers of all time--is wasting away whatever decent years he has left in craptastic TNA.
Naturally all the TNA talent do not like this idea one bit.
Speaking of TNA. Did you hear about Hogan's idea that he claimed was going to be huge and change the face of wrestling like the NWO and Attitude Era? Well after being so secretive for so long he finally revealed it was to have fans film TNA wrestlers on they're off time and then send the videos in. Think of TMZ paparazzi style crap.
Some of the wrestlers most people won't know, and the other wrestlers most people think have already retired.
I don't know that it is too late. TNA has survived for years with mediocre ratings and a crap product. So, there's opportunity to take "risks" such as, I dunno, hiring good writers and a decent booker, using their talent in ways that make sense, and minimizing the influence of the jokers that ran WCW into the ground. But I just don't think they have that much sense, and/or are too afraid of not giving Hogan whatever he wants.
They need to kick Hogan and Bischoff out of there before it's too late, in fact I think it is too late.
That would be really lame, since everyone knows Lesnar is coming back anyway, and it wouldn't really move his character forward in any way. But, I can see it. Funny enough, I was listening to the Figure Four weekly podcast last night and they came to the two possible conclusions we brought up here--either someone not currently on the roster coming to interfere, or Big Show turning in order to keep his job.
