In all seriousness, I mean all of the legends it as The Steiners, Sting, Kurt Angle, Voodoo Kin Mafia, Team 3D(by me always known for being The Dudleyz), Christian, Raven,Rino, and now it has Rikishi(now as Junior Fatu). Just last Thursday I was telling and showing my Dad what TNA was, He said its been years since he's seen these guys. So the question really goes like this...With all these legends how can TNA not be as big as WWE?

Does TNA have the capability to be as big as the WWE? Absolutely.
TNA has the financial backing of a billion dollar company, has a mix of well known stars and up and comers, 2 hours of primetime televsion etc. Only time will tell. If you would have had the internet in 1993 it would be like it is today. Almost everyone would be wondering if WCW could ever compete with WWF, and most would not have given them a chance. So in the world of professional wrestling never count your chickens before they hatch and never say never.

Atm WWE has the bigger resources, Facilities & the money.It is always on the road & touring overseas whereas TNA is based in Orlando.As a bigger company with bigger backing WWE is the bigger outfit.
However with seriously bad ratings - Raw hit a 10year low on Monday there's a real danger of The US Network pulling the plug on the tv deal.TNA has gone up to 2hrs with Impact & the ratings are on the rise.
I would say give it 3/5 years maybe & TNA will be the dominant force in wrestling.Dixie Carter deserves it for sure.

I don't know. They could if they played their cards right. The problem is that they went to two hours and their ratings still didn't go up any. They need to work on their program and their roster. I think that a lot of people see TNA as a rip off of the WWE because they employ a lot of the wrestlers that WWE let go.

definite while the day comes while TNA Leaves Their Studio in Orlando, Fl and has 2 or 3 stay television exhibits weekly on a super community, so it relatively is seen international. the only element authentic now retaining TNA to be getting greater scores than WWE, and to make greater funds is the television exhibits TNA has could desire to be stay, and that they desire 2 exhibits on a super community, and to have their exhibits in arenas no longer studios, and to make a super good like DX or the nWo, and to have a stay television instruct on on the comparable time on television as uncooked or SmackDown. while that day comes TNA would be prevailing scores over WWE like while WCW Nitro as prevailing scores over WWF uncooked is conflict. Then WWE will could desire to do what they did returned to suceed over WCW.......the suggestions-set era.

Its just wcw all over again. TNA will have a good run for maybe another 3-5 years, before it goes bankrupt. Vince will make a deal with Jim Cornett and Jeff Jarett, and buy TNA. He will take the wrestlers that he likes and hire them. The rest he will let go. Most will quit on their own, because they refuse to work with vince and the WWE. But vince would take Styles and Joe and make them stars.

Of course it is only my opinion, but I think TNA has similar shows. Those PPV events sound like WWE shows, the backstage drama stories are alike. TNA has tremendous wrestlers, WWE has incredible wrestlers too and they are legends.
If I were Vince, I would hire those talented guys like AJ (he was in WWE once), Dutt, Killings, Samoa Joe and others in stead of buying the whole concept of TNA.

No.
And your right they have lgends. Legends dominating their title seen and being put over homegrown talent. That will be their downfall because one day they will need to use a homegrown talent as a champion to seem legit.
Plus these legends are guys the WWE already squezzed for most of their worth

TNA will have their run for a while. But sooner or later Vince will buy them too. Then all those people Vince once employeed, he will fire (or release) once again.
