Problem is that i don't think you can even use TNA for that at this point.

If you can get a contract on Panda's payroll like Storm does, there's no risk of not being paid on time.

@Memphis Mark

It's just Moose. Of course TNA will overpay him for no reason because they think he's the next savior or whatever, but I can't imagine WWE being that interested in the guy because he's an awful promo and pretty limited wrestler, but he's big so they'll try anyway.

I can see WWE being interesed just for him being an ex NFL player alone, if you add that he is way more advanced than he should as a whole taking into consideration the years he is been wrestling then for sure they will have some kind of interest.

No one knows but Roddy I'm guessing. Personally I hope he goes to NXT, not because I want to see ROH hurt but I just want to see him in a new environment he'd be guaranteed to thrive in.

Roddy going to NXT will hurt and help ROH i think, they will lose a great wrestler but it would open a spot for someone to be elevated and new talent to be brought in.

How is this guy "more advanced" exactly ? He really hasn't improved all that much in two years (maybe he can jump a bit higher for his corner dropkick and pump his fist more convincingly, I don't know), which is why he's still stuck doing squashes/multi-man matches and working longer matches with much better workers who can carry his ass towards something decent.

He has improved a lot, if you watch him without the blind hate you will see it.

Maybe he just doesn't really care about money?

Moose is far from good, but he’s become bearable over time.

I think he’ll be fine no matter where he goes.

Quite a bit that hasn't been publicized and I'm leaving it at that unless someone else comes public.

What's amazing is that TNA is offering these "big money deals", yet the company LITERALLY ALMOST DIED this past week.

The thing i don´t know about the TNA situation is, imagine you sign and they have to close, do you still get the money you are owned?

Maybe he thinks that his future potential earnings in WWE will be much higher than anywhere else?

Or they could have just been doing this anyway over the past year or two without Roddy having to leave the company.

With ROH, Roddy still has the time to invest into his other business venture. Going to NXT, his wrestling commitment would outweigh other opportunities from a time investment standpoint.

He stays with ROH, no doubt.

Honestly, I feel like this Roderick Strong/Mark Briscoe match at the PPV screams that Strong is putting Mark over on the way out.
