Lance Storm Comments on TNA's Big Signing

Lance Storm is starting to change his mind.

In the past, the former WCW United States Heavyweight Champion has been highly critical of TNA and their product. He's always praised the wrestlers, calling them some of the best performers in the entire business. However, he's always had issues with the creative department, especially Vince Russo.

His frustration with the product has actually led him to turning away from TNA. He claims that he has not watched the program in quite some time.

However, with the recent news that Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff had signed on with TNA, Storm has stated that he's going to give the product another chance.

The following are excerpts from his official blog about the issue.

Hulk Hogan has as much name value as anyone in this business so his presence should draw more attention to the company and get more people checking out TNA. TNA needs more viewers and Hogan’s name might get them some much needed exposure. Add to that the probable reduction in Vince Russo’s creative control and the product will almost certainly improve. As long as TNA maintains and features their talented young stars like, AJ, Daniels, MCMG, Beer Money, etc. (you know all the guys and girls I mean) and we don’t see The Nasty Boys as TNA Tag Champs, Brutus Beefcake as the Legends Champ and Hulk Hogan as TNA Champ, this can only be a positive move.

Only time will tell whether this will be the case or not but at least for now Hogan and Bischoff have created enough buzz to get me interested in checking out TNA once again, something I haven’t done in several months.

Closing Thoughts

Lance Storm has always been a great guy to listen to. He complains about stuff, but he also provides ideas or possible solutions. That's the sign of a mature individual who can remain logical.

Since Russo has taken control from Cornette, we have seen AJ as champ, Beer Money & British Invasion as tag champs & EY as legends champ.

Russo didn't take any control from Cornette??? Cornette HAD NO control. And besides that, Cornette was the one pushing for young guys to be something. It was Jarrett, if anyone, that was making it difficult for new guys. And I like Jarrett, but it's just the truth.

I agree completely.

Storm's site is one of the wrestling sites I check on fairly frequently, to read his blogs.
