Paul Heyman: I Have No Interest in TNA

The evil genius behind the legendary ECW promotion has come forward and proclaimed that he has absolutely no interest in joining TNA.

Turned Off By TNA When Paul Heyman says that he has no interest in going to TNA, it's nothing personal. He doesn't hate the company. He doesn't hate the wrestlers. What he doesn't like is the fact that if he were to join TNA, he would just be another piece in the cog as opposed to being able to do what he does best. You see, a lot of uninformed wrestling fans believe that TNA would be "saved" simply by hiring Paul Heyman. As gifted as he is, the solution isn't quite that simple. TNA would have to scrap their entire booking team and allow Paul Heyman to have full control. He also needs the power to be able to change how the entire shows are produced. Without that power, he wouldn't be nearly as effective as everyone thinks that he would be. The problem with that, though, is that a lot of companies that are still in the early years aren't willing to make drastic changes if they're already seeing signs of improvements. Even the most die hard TNA hater would be foolish to say that they don't see improvements in TNA. In recent weeks, the company has been breaking records with their television ratings. TNA will ride with what brought them to the dance.

Genius At Work

A lot of WWE fans are salivating at the mere mention that Paul Heyman has no interest in TNA. Him saying that doesn't mean that he'll be jumping back on board with WWE in the next few days.

The reason why Paul Heyman refuses to return to WWE right now is the exact same reason why he refuses to go to TNA. He needs to have more power than what he's given. Otherwise, he's only slightly above average. He's not a genius when you have handcuffs on him.

For all the criticism that she receives, Stephanie McMahon needs to be praised for her handling of the Paul Heyman situation. She tried to play the peacekeeper between Vince McMahon and Paul Heyman. She even offered Paul Heyman a lucrative deal to return to the company. However, he turned her down because he didn't want to just be another puppet for Vince McMahon.

With WWE failing to produce superstars as of late, they really need to do something with their developmental system. Getting rid of OVW and moving things down to Florida isn't going to make a huge difference. What will make a huge difference is to allow Paul Heyman to take over development.

The man was the best at creating new characters. Sounds like a perfect fit for a company that needs new characters.
