Ultimate Warrior to TNA???

-- Officials are indeed trying to get the Ultimate Warrior to come to TNA. If he comes in, he would likely tag team with Sting. The two haven't teamed up in 22 or 23 years after breaking into professional wrestling together. Should Warrior end up coming to TNA, it won't be happening at Slammiversary because no deal is done. In a trivia note, WCW's original plan for Warrior was to have him debut at the record setting July 7, 1998 Monday Nitro show at the Georgia Dome, which ended up featuring the memorable Goldberg title win over Hollywood Hogan. WCW's plan was to have Sting & Warrior team up to take on Hogan & The Giant. However, WCW couldn't seal the deal with Warrior in time and the match was called off. Warrior and Sting never teamed together in WCW

That would've been cool to see in 98, but would be sad to see today. This would damage Sting's legacy and only look bad for TNA in the end.

The final nail in the coffin.

Once, TNA had the potential to be a viable option to the WWE (we so need 2 major companies), but they shit it all away and will never get it back.

The guys who can work are on the undercard, and the guys who suck - but made a name for themselves while wrestling for the competition - are the main eventers.

Sounds like the WCW formula to me.

Any promotion that books Robert Roode to win over a giant like Matt Morgan can't be taken seriously.

I agree with everything you said up until this point. Matt Morgan made himself a name through WWE. Robert Roode is one of the better heels that didn't make a name for himself in WWE. Having Christopher Daniels get "fired" just so he could be the Curryman and tag with Shark Boy would be a much better example of why TNA cannot be taken seriously. (although signing the Ultimate warrior would take the cake)
