"TNA Is Not Going Out Of Business!" - 10 Questions With Matt Hardy

7. Previously, WWE wouldn€™t touch ex-TNA stars, but with the likes of Samoa Joe and James Storm wrestling in NXT, has it changed people€™s ambitions around TNA? What I think is happening is this: WWE, from Vince McMahon down, or maybe this is a Triple H call, I don€™t know, I€™m not privy to that information because I haven€™t been there for years, but what they€™ve realised now is that they€™ve been through this period of trying other professional athletes or bodybulders or models or fitness people or whatever. They€™ve tried to train all these people to be professional wrestling athletes, and I think they€™ve realised that the guys who are going to be the best to invest in are the guys who have been around and have worked for a long time, and actually love this business and are passionate about it. I tell you, this TNA locker room is a talented-ass locker room. If we can get all our stars in a line, and have everything go right, we have one of the greatest locker rooms that has been put together in a long time, not only from a talent aspect, but from an attitude aspect. The attitude there is great. The morale there is great. have looked at Ring of Honor, they€™ve looked at TNA and they€™ve said that these guys are great, they have TV experience, they know what they€™re doing, so we should go after these guys. So in some ways, it€™s a threat to some of the smaller promotions that aren€™t going to be the size of the huge corporate machine that is the WWE but I think they€™ve realised that the guys to look out for are the guys who have the passion to do this.
