Seen plenty of people who are thrilled with this Magnus push, thinking this guy is a top star. He's got a movie star look, he's fantastic on the mic, improving in the ring and he's charismatic... but it seems like there's more excitement about "Yay, new guy!" instead of Magnus specifically.

What can Magnus do to make people more excited about him? How much potential do you think he has?

I don't follow TNA on the regular, so I wouldn't know much of his current work. I think he's very generic currently as in his character and his move-set. But since he has the look and his mic skills are above average, I think he can make it as a top star.

I watch TNA Impact! Wrestling every week and think that with a better moveset and experience, he'll be one of the best in the company in the years to come.

Magnus:

- looks like a star in the making
- charismatic
- can work very good as both babyface or heel
. solid in ring work
- very solid and constant on microphone

Must watch from him:

I think he can cut good promos, has a very good look and is a good worker, I like the guy, he can be a top star. But I think they could give him something a bit more interesting as far as a character goes, I don't know.

Wolfe should be in his place, but Magnus is great too.

Sad what happened to Nigel.

I think my issue is they have to point out he could become the first British TNA champ over, and over, and over again. The week (3 weeks ago max) he was still point leader in the BFG series, and when MEM came out to talk about destroying Aces and 8s, they didnt even mention him, or why he was gone.

It's that kind of shit that gets to me, he has been at 39 for quite a while now, and they never pointed out that he could be the man to dethrone Bully.

I hthink hes awesome on the mic, he has all the looks, but i just think he is back with Kaz and Daniels as far as roster quality goes. Im going to keep the title between bully/roode/aj/aries/and unfortunately Hardy (merchandise) and unfortunately that leaves the other guys out. I really would not be against adding a mid-card belt now that the knockouts tag and TV titles are gone. Have a WHC and a TNA champ, why not? The roster is big enough. First, build a fucking x-division story. THEN, new belt.
