9. Chuck Taylor

The Kentucky Gentleman recently appeared on Impact teaming up with JT Dunn (who would also make a nice signing) in a losing effort against The Hardys. He also took part in one of the company's One Night Only tapings, going over Rockstar Spud. Now it's time to make him a regular member of the roster.

The longtime indy veteran has wrestled all over, competing in top independent promotions like PWG and Dragon Gate, making a name for himself everywhere he goes. He's also a current tag team champion along with Drew Galloway in EVOLVE, but he's yet to make it to one of the major companies in a full-time role.

Taylor is just a great heel. He's entertaining on the mic and comes across as a smug and unlikable jerk, which makes booing him easy. He’s also solid in the ring, and could fit in well as a heavyweight competitor, or placed in a tag team.

While he teased retirement after not securing a spot in NXT, he's still in the game, and at 30 he's young enough to still make a difference in TNA.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
