The Young Bucks had a try-out match at the last TNA tapings against the MCMGs. It went well enough that they were offered and accepted a contract. Congrats to them. TNA may suck, but they pay indie stars well, and Lord knows the Bucks deserve it. They're also a company that pushes tag teams in general, which means they'll get some exposure. Commiserations to the fans of DGUSA, ROH and PWG, where the Bucks will no longer be wrestling.
How much does TNA pay? If they pay so well, then why do so many of their wrestlers still take indy bookings?
ReplyDeleteThe Young Bucks won't be in DGUSA (PPV) and ROH (TV), but they could still show up in PWG from time to time since TNA doesn't care about PWG. The Motor City Machine Guns were on a handful of PWG shows in 2009.
this makes me INCREDIBLY sad!
ReplyDeletei mean, yes, i agree its always awesome when deserving wrestlers move on to bigger things - but seriously, i LOVED seeing the young bucks live and local. they were one of the only reasons why i still considered going to ROH
@KoppoKick: many of their wrestlers take indy bookings because, unlike many in WWE, they may actually have time to.
ReplyDeleteWWE wrestlers occasionally take indy bookings unless they're a big name like Cena, Orton, or Jericho, in order to get more exposure. The only reason you won't see them often is because with WWE, they're usually either working or in-transit every night. With TNA, that's not always the case.
