Apart of me sides with the Main Event Mafia. I've watched Kevin Nash, Sting, Booker T, and Scott Steiner since 1993. Kurt Angle since 1999. A lot of time has been spent over the years of them entertaining big crowds of people, even before I started watching them. I like all 5 in this group, however...if it gets any bigger, it will start to look like the nWo that was in WCW. One thing I have a problem with, they wanna talk about not getting respected. They already got their respect a long time ago. To me, I don't think they care too much about getting respected by the younger talent, so much that they just want to dominate them.
Then the other part sides with the TNA Originals. They been there since day one making TNA what it is. This group is the future of wrestling. I can't say too much about the Originals, because I haven't been watching them for that very long. I can say. I heard what Jeff Jarrett had to say to the reason why he, and his father founded TNA. I have this feeling in me, that he is not to be trusted. I see him backstabbing the Originals. Why else has he been ducking down Kurt Angle, and got Mick Foley as a share holder to TNA? Something is fishy!

I followed TNA since it formed in 2002, and I say the most consistent name is AJ Styles. I first heard of him through the old NCW/NWA Wildside/NWA Anarchy promotion in Cornelia, GA. He has since became a amazing superstar in TNA.
On a side note, I honestly don't see Jeff Jarrett and Mick Foley get involved in the middle of this, unless Kurt Angle pushes the wrong buttons that would make them snap. Jarrett wants to take care of the business end of TNA, and I can understand that wholeheartedly.

We'll have to see how the whole christian joining the MEM pans out as his contract expires soon and he is leaning towards the WWE

I think it's stupid for Christian to be involved with Main Event Mafia at all. TNA didn't need to go that route to write him out of storylines. All they had to do, was make up an injury angle from Turning Point to keep him off TV. It's leaning toward Christian leaving TNA for WWE. Well good! I really didn't care for him any way. By him leaving TNA would actually do me a favor of not having to watch him anymore. I am glad it aint Kurt Angle who's going.
If he stays in TNA, then that will mean I will have to deal with watching him. If he thinks grass is greener in WWE, then my final words relating to him will be....Christian better not let TNA's door hit him on the you know what on his way out!
I am so glad that it looks like I wont have to watch him anymore, nor will I have to come on here to write posts about someone who I don't care for!

I tend to side with the mafia because my boy Steiner but also because these guys are a cornerstone for the wrestling industry as a whole. I like the angle because the older talent is getting good air time and the younger guys get to show some talent of their own against some of wrestlings biggest stars.

I really don't have a side in all of this. MEM is kinda like the nWo, and the Frontline is kinda like WCW, but I see MEM being like every other faction. Pretty soon it will fold just like Evolution. Only difference is, Evolution was about 2 Icons such as Kurt Angle, Sting, Kevin Nash, Booker T, and Scott Steiner. Both Triple H, and Ric Flair gave the New Blood a chance. MEM has 5 big egos in which is just a matter of time of flairing up at one another. It is how the nWo folded in WCW.
I like Kurt Angle the most in the group, and always have liked Kevin Nash. Sting is only in it for the ride, but pretty soon he'll be the first to drop out. Has anyone else noticed Sting is not really been that involved in MEM? I noticed it when the rest of MEM was attacking the Frontline, or was it Christian? he was outside of the ring in the entrance way watching. Booker T, I liked more in WCW when he didn't have a mop on his head. Scott Steiner, I liked more when he wasn't so jacked up, and before he dyed his hair, and goatie white.
I don't have a side, because at the end of each show they do with MEM, and the Frontline beating up on one another what matters is, they all work for one pro wrestling company which is better than the one up North!

I for one like the main event mafia and think it was a good idea to create the group as well. Makes TNA more interesting having this dominant stable in it. I pretty much like everybody in it as well. "Soon, you'll be sleeping with the fishes!" lol.
When are they gonna bring Scott Hall in this stable? Lol.

The MEM has 3 of the 5 members who was involved in with the nWo/Wolfpac in the WCW days. If they would include Scott Hall that will mean atleast one thing. TNA would need to hire him back, and the talk a year ago when he no showed last year's Turning Point sounded like he was done in TNA.
I for one, don't think MEM is gonna be around long enough for Scott Hall to even get that oppertunity, but if I be wrong on this, then the addition to Hall will open more eyes to what I already see about MEM being like nWo. I think TNA don't want people to see that image. This is probably why it hasn't got any bigger than 5 members. If it would get any bigger, then people will see that nWo image that way also, but like I said, I already have seen it!

Yeah, it's cool how 3 of the members are from NWO/Wolfpac. Did you see when Steiner was introduced, and when he met Kevin Nash, they did their Wolfpac hand sign. That was pretty cool, lol. Yeah, I know, true about Hall, but, that was a year ago. Anything can happen! And this would be right up Hall's alley!
True, but almost anything good is gonna be close or compared to NWO. I think it is great how they are keeping it small, like the original NWO. We'll see in time what happens, but it's a nice addition I think.

I wanna talk about one man that now I can't stand. Sting. I liked him in WCW, but not when he was going head to head with the nWo. Now he's in MEM, and why am I sick of him? last Sunday was the final straw, when he walked out on MEM after the match was over. He stormed out of the ring, and walked off to the backstage area with Nash, Steiner, and Booker T yelling at him.
Nash saved Sting's TNA Championship run, and he walks out on MEM. Sting wouldn't even beat Samoa Joe at Bound For Glory if it wasn't for Nash. I just hope MEM sees the light, and kicks him out, if he don't like how MEM opperates!
