    Is there a reason that Daniels and Kazarian never got a chance with WWE?

    No clue, I believe they were older than AJ at the end of TNA's big run and instead of going to NJPW they either went to ROH or stayed in TNA


    Although Bruce Prichard swears Christopher Daniels was originally going to be the higher power in 1999....which makes no sense

    Yeah, makes zero sense. Gangrel said The Brood was going to originally consist of himself, Edge, and Christopher Daniels.

    I did some research and Ed Ferrara told Bruce Prichard who then told Vince about him.

    Still though Chris Daniels in 1999? As the fallen angel? Is there any footage of him even wrestling back then

    Only stuff I can find of him in 99 was a match vs Rhyno on ECW tv and a tryout match for the WWF vs Taka Michinoku on Shotgun Saturday.

    The story is he was supposed to face The Undertaker until Vince saw him in person.

    I think WWE will throw ridiculous amounts of money at Omega, Cody, and YB. I think HHH sees their value.

    Letting them have free reign with the E3 thing and then uploading a Kenny match to the network was a public rub, they know and have wanted them for a long time. With things like them stopping ROH from running MSG and starting a UK show, you just know they're worried about All In selling out.

    They could feasibly pay every wrestler a million dollar contract with the new deal. I'd give Kenny and The Bucks whatever they wanted. I think Cody definitely stays for now though, his stock just gets higher on the indies if the other guys leave.

    Yea I'd hate to see them being crippled in WWE....if, God forbid, Kenny does go to WWE, I would only be interested if they strapped a rocket to him and went all in on him being the main guy.

    Which they wouldn't do because he's 34 and I still would never prefer that over him staying in NJPW.
