TNA Removes the Profile of a Former World Champion

[Slyfox696]

^^^You mean like everybody said would happen to Jericho when he came back?

Are you really trying to say that Christian Cage is ANYWHERE near Jericho's level...in anything?

Jericho was a multi-time former World Champion, one of the most respected in-ring workers in the business, and far more over than Cage ever has been when Jericho left.

There is no comparison to Christian and Jericho. A MUCH better comparison would be Jeff Hardy's return. Do a little research on Jeff Hardy spent his comeback work.


And before you say it, yes, I know that Hardy is now World Champion, but that is because of what he did during his return, not before it. And I don't think Christian will have the following Jeff did.

(Btw, Your arrogant, self-assured attitude is rather repellent, if you don't mind me saying.)

If I actually gave a fuck, I might care.

How can he get tossed out of the Main Event on SmackDown! when they barely have one imo.

 

[Seventh Reason]

The doesn't mean he is gone. I still feel TNA is messing with us, playing up the WWE hype, and then having him return as a heel maybe to help the MEM.

All of the WWE and the various wrestling journals across the globe are working in tandem with the TNA to create this angle?

Don't think TNA would try to "mess with us" in order to bear fruit on this particular angle. It sounds too intricate and delicately configured to be from the TNA "masterminds".

No, I'm saying don't be so damn sure of yourself... You're just a fan like the rest of us and you don't KNOW what WWE have planned for Cage SHOULD they bring him back.

Jericho was a multi-time former World Champion, one of the most respected in-ring workers in the business, and far more over than Cage ever has been when Jericho left.

Funny you say that because at around the time Cage left they were both occupying almost EXACTLY the same spot on the roster - Main even 'bothering' upper mid-carders.

There is no comparison to Christian and Jericho.

You're the only one doing that.

A MUCH better comparison would be Jeff Hardy's return. Do a little research on Jeff Hardy spent his comeback work.

Sorry... Research what?

And before you say it, yes, I know that Hardy is now World Champion, but that is because of what he did during his return, not before it. And I don't think Christian will have the following Jeff did.

I wasn't going to, but regardless, nothing you've said there suggests that Cage can't make a go of it if he does return.

(Btw, Your arrogant, self-assured attitude is rather repellent, if you don't mind me saying.)

If I actually gave a fuck, I might care.

Woah! ....Did everyone else catch that? ...What a bad-bwoy!!!

:sarcastic round of applause:


....Why do I get the impression that the real world is a rather lonely place for you.? :roll:

Like 'em or loath them, you're saying that HHH, Edge, Taker, Big Show & Hardy (with Koslov, Umaga, Kennedy and MVP all pushable at any time) don't equate to a main event for SD?

 

[THE Brian Kendrick's Biceps]

Christian Cage comes back to the WWE, debuts in a major angle, works a couple PPVs in a major role...

...then finds himself mired in the midcard, working with guys with less talent than brains, and completely lacking in both.

He may work in the midcard for WWE, but it's still better than being the trainwreck that is TNA. Assuring himself and his family the best possible future would have to be a priority, correct?

lol @ your intelligence call, btw. I'd love to know how you'd personally know their intellectual capabilities.

Raise your hand if you want to disagree with me. After all, it's good for the unintelligent to identify themselves.

Your head smells the same as your asshole. Neither smell too good, tbf.

Triple H, Edge, 'Taker and Hardy. If 'Taker's supposably retiring at WM25 then that leaves just the three. I don't count Kozlov as a Main Eventer, Umaga isn't there and will not be used correctly, Kennedy is as stale as year-old bread and MVP is on a jobbing streak. Cage at least has momentum in WWE now as he had held a World Title.

 

[Airfixx]

^^^Just because YOU don't like certain people (Big Show pressumably... Koslov, Kennedy), it in no way effects their 'status' on the card.


As for Cage having previously held a world title... I doubt that makes any difference to WWE...Benoit & Booker were both former WCW champs and look how long it took them to get world title gold in WWE (not counting the shitty title merry-go-round that went down during the invasion)?

....4 or 5 years each.

 

[Slyfox696]

No, I'm saying don't be so damn sure of yourself... You're just a fan like the rest of us and you don't KNOW what WWE have planned for Cage SHOULD they bring him back.

Well, just wait and see what happens. And when I'm right, I fully expect you to come to me and tell me so.

Funny you say that because at around the time Cage left they were both occupying almost EXACTLY the same spot on the roster - Main even 'bothering' upper mid-carders.

Again, I ask you...

Are you really trying to compare Christian and Jericho?

You're the only one doing that.

You're the one who brought it up, not me.

Sorry... Research what?

Sorry, I forgot "how". Do some research on how Hardy spent his comeback. See how he debuted, then what he did after.

I wasn't going to, but regardless, nothing you've said there suggests that Cage can't make a go of it if he does return.

Sure he can. But after he gets put in the midcard, working with talentless workers...which is what I said.

....Why do I get the impression that the real world is a rather lonely place for you.? :roll:

Because you're a social outcast yourself, who thinks that anyone who posts on the Internet must be lonely?

I assure you, I have no lack of friends or female companionship. But thank you for such an interest into my personal life.

He may work in the midcard for WWE, but it's still better than being the trainwreck that is TNA. Assuring himself and his family the best possible future would have to be a priority, correct?

What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

lol @ your intelligence call, btw. I'd love to know how you'd personally know their intellectual capabilities.

Watch what the WWE does with Christian, and then we'll talk.

Your head smells the same as your asshole. Neither smell too good, tbf.

Wow...I hope you stay out of the flaming section of these boards. Because you would be awful at it.

 

[THE Brian Kendrick's Biceps]

What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

le sigh.

It has to do with the fact that going to WWE is much better than staying in TNA. It doesn't really matter where he is on the card. Surely you could work that out.

Watch what the WWE does with Christian, and then we'll talk.

Good to know you couldn't answer what I asked. But you're not talking out of your ass at all, now are you?

Wow...I hope you stay out of the flaming section of these boards. Because you would be awful at it.
You could cut the hypocricy with a knife.

For someone who's arrogant as fuck, you really don't have anything to back up your opinions.

The problem I'm having is finding where the fuck I said ANYTHING about TNA.

You didn't ask a question here, Einstein.

You could cut the hypocricy with a knife.

For someone who's arrogant as fuck, you really don't have anything to back up your opinions.

You mean aside from history and facts?

 

[Airfixx]

^^^Your "facts" consist of....

*WWE midcarders are all untallented and DUMB.
*Jericho has a bigger amount of respect than Cage thus WWE can't/won't push him to the same degree or more.


Please feel free to point out any other "facts" that I have missed...

Well, just wait and see what happens. And when I'm right, I fully expect you to come to me and tell me so.

If it means that much to you, I will IF you are right.

Again, I ask you...

Are you really trying to compare Christian and Jericho?

....You're the one who brought it up, not me.

I wasn't directly comparing the merits of each guy... I merely refered to the 'smark' predictions relating to Jericho's return (a guy who ever since his undisputed title reign has been widely considered as upper-midcard for life)... The 'smart' fans were wrong then and they could be wrong again.

You're the one who started bringing up the 'pros and cons' of each guy - i.e. Workrate, respect amongts certain parties etc.

The only direct refence between the two I have made was my refering to his 'status' at the time he left and like it or not, him and Jericho were occupying almost identicle spots on the roster.

Sorry, I forgot "how". Do some research on how Hardy spent his comeback. See how he debuted, then what he did after.

I will, but do you mean 2006 or the return from suspention earlier this year?

While I'm waiting for an answer though, I see a distinct difference in that Jeff, relatively speaking, still had it all to prove as a singles guy when he came back in 06... My memory is sketchy at this point (will look back), but didn't they even re-debut him with a tag team run?

Sure he can. But after he gets put in the midcard, working with talentless workers...which is what I said.

The emphasis of your initial statement was that he'll drop down to midcard. You certainly didn't suggest you beleive he would or even COULD then climb back UP the card.

But, refering back to your earlier statement....

So there's no talent in the WWE mid-card now too?

...I'm still baffled by your assesment of their lack of intelligence (then again I guess when you're as conceted as you are, everyone comes accross as a little interllectually challenged). :roll:

Because you're a social outcast yourself, who thinks that anyone who posts on the Internet must be lonely?

No, because if your conduct on here is anything to go by you're conceted, arrogant, believe yourself to be intellectually superior to everyone you have interacted with or even written about, and, when previously active, proved yourself to have had some sort of sense of humour bypass... I can't say I've met anyone that deems these to be appealing qualities in a person, but as I more honestly suspect, you're trying to just be a bit of a bad-ass... Excuse me if I'm anything but impressed.

 

[Kizza]

Jeff came back in 06 tagging with Matt, i'm fairly sure.

 

[Airfixx]

Further thoughts...

....IMO, the biggest obstical in Cage's way is that i could NEVER see WWE putting him over Edge cleanly, therefore they need to be more creative with him that merely alligning him with Edge again (i.e The Hardy's attacker angle) only for him to turn on him somewhere down the line, go face and challenge him for the title.

 

[CenaMark54]

Christian Cage comes back to the WWE, debuts in a major angle, works a couple PPVs in a major role...

...then finds himself mired in the midcard, working with guys with less talent than brains, and completely lacking in both.


Raise your hand if you want to disagree with me. After all, it's good for the unintelligent to identify themselves.

I think you are underestimating the pull that Edge has backstage now. Edge will likely have many more title reigns. You don't think Edge will push to have a prolonged title program with Christian?

And the midcard isn't that bad of a place to be. Most main event talent goes in and out of the midcard periodically. You can't always be at the top of the card.
