For the love of God, would someone pitch that WWE sign James Storm, put him back together with Bobby Roode as a tag-team and have them run roughshod over either NXT, Raw or SmackDown as the fun-loving Beer Money? That'd help both guys out and give them one more run their TNA success deserves.

2019 is the time to make this happen.

Recently, Storm has become NWA National Champion in between excursions across the Atlantic to wrestle for UK promotions like ICW and IPW:UK. The aura he gives off is decidedly old-school, and the guy can promo his t*ts off better than most. It's a crying shame that his WWE experience to date has boiled down to a two-month NXT run in 2015.

Beer Money would help revitalise Roode's fading fortunes on the roster, give Storm that positive WWE memory to look back on when he retires and reward fans who loved their antics in Impact. The 'Tennessee Cowboy' is waaaaay better than some living firmly inside the WWE bubble give him credit for.
