Does anyone actually think there might be just a tiny glimmer of hope for this federation? Does anyone think it can compete against the mighty (but crap) WWE?

I mean, it doesn't look too bad for them. It's run by the legend himself Jeff Jarrett, and he has a whole host of great talent to choose from (for their wrestling skills or their draw value). This now includes (the names in brackets are their current names in NWA:TNA):

Jeff Jarrett
Ken Shamrock
Grandmaster Sexay (Brian Lawler)
K-Kwik (Ron "The Truth" Killings)
Ron Harris
Jerry Lynn
AJ Styles
Lo-Ki
Disco Inferno
Road-Dogg
Buff Bagwell (not too sure though, as his name is Marcus Bagwell. Is that a relation?)
Kid Kash
SAT
The Flying Elvis' (cruisers I think)
X-Pac (Syxx-Pac)
Scott Hall

Also, they make sure that their Cruiserweights (who partake in the famous X-Division) are almost always in the main event, so in a way they have their priorities right.

Problem is, they apparently fill their midcard with crap like pointless guy vs girl matches and midget vs big guy matches, and there was an utterly awful women's battle royal at some point too.

They seem to have a reasonable budget, they have a couple of PPV shows every month and are soon to get a TV show, so what do you think of their chances?

They travel here once a year, and put on about 10 shows across the whole of Britain. Not that bad really. Will you be able to go to any this year, Ant?

If the company signs up Austin and the Steiners, I think they might have a chance of competing with the WWE just because of the past popularity of these wrestlers...

Hmm guy Vs Girl matches...Jeff Jarrett always did seem to be into that stuff. Remember the whole him vs woman thing he went through?

And yup that's a good line up...I'm hoping Austin never joins up...

From what I've read on the net, NWA:TNA has a good chance of making it big, mainly due to the X Division catching on and some good wrestling (plus Sabu's made a few appearences).

In terms of them competing with WWE, chances are slim. I mean K-Kwik as champ? Not to mention a lack of a TV deal. That said, some more signings of free agents (Steiners, a certain Rattlesnake perhaps?) could really elevate them and give them some much needed credibility.

Watch this space.

True, although I think WWA's just a company that travels around the world and does shows, without any continuing storylines. And the WWA's shows are pretty rare.

I tell you now, Ken Shamrock looks like a seventy's porn star, he has the most awful sideburns and hair cut ever.
