An Open Letter To Dixie Carter
Dear Mrs. Carter,
I'm writing this in the hopes that you'll consider making a change in your creative department by removing Bruce Pritchard and replacing him with me.
Yes, I'm offering you my services as head of TNA Creative. You see, your program is, well to be blunt, horrible. And I feel that I can make a positive difference in your programming by making several necessary changes.
1.) I'd remove Hulk Hogan from television. He contributes nothing and does nothing to elevate the talent. He's just there to collect a paycheck. He doesn't care about the company, the product, or the talent. And you're paying him way too much to do nothing for your company.
2.) I'd push your homegrown talents. First and foremost, James Storm. He is pretty much a blue collar talent. And I'd use him as my top babyface.
3.) I would do away with the frequent heel/face turns and frequent swerves. The only major turn I'd make is turning Bully Ray heel. I see a lot of money in a James Storm/Bully Ray feud for the TNA Title.
4.) I'd sign people that I feel can contribute to the product and elevate the talent.
5.) I would avoid signing the "WWE Rejects." Sure they have name recognition but if they weren't successful there, what makes you think they'll contribute to your product? The only exceptions have been Jeff Hardy and Kurt Angle.
I don't come with a high price. I'd be happy with just a $2,500 a month salary. I don't come with a lot of experience either. But one thing I do come with is a passion for Professional Wrestling and a work ethic. And I'm someone who is easy to work with.
Look at where you are now. Your story lines are awful.
Aces and 8's were supposed to be this top heel stable and your creative team has them jobbing to Garrett Bischoff and Wes Brisco? Wes Brisco has talent, yes. But Garrett Bischoff? As a matter of fact, Aces and 8's are jobbing to everyone. Yes, a group of bad ass jobbers. I could salvage the act and make them the brutal destructive force they need to be. But it might be too little too late.
You've got another awful story with Bully Ray. Turning him face was a mistake. One that, as the head of Creative, I will correct.
Where is your tag team division? Chavo and Hernandez and Bad Influence? Put me in charge of Creative and I'll give you a competitive tag team division. I'll even make a request to Danny Davis over at OVW to produce some solid tag teams while searching the independents for a few established teams. I've got my eye on a couple of tag teams in the NWA.
As head of Creative, I'll bring back the X Division. It is a staple in TNA. And there needs to be a focus on it. Zema Ion can be the guy I can build the X Division around. Rob Van Dam? No.
Your company does have the talent to be competitive. You've got solid homegrown talent. You've got a great developmental program in OVW. You've got some solid veterans who can still contribute to the product. But your Creative team is killing your product.
I can do better. I will do better. I don't cost a lot of money but I will do everything in my power to MAKE the company LOTS of money. I have experience in Professional Wrestling. I have family that have been or are currently active performers. I have in-ring training and while I may not have the size to be an in-ring performer, I have worked as a referee, a manager, and as a backstage interviewer back in the 90's in Hawaii along with being part of the ring crew, cleanup crew, and gopher boy for the boys in the dressing room. I never had the size but I do have the mind for this business.
The question, Dixie, is do you want someone there who's just looking for the paycheck and the relaxed work schedule? Or do you want someone who truly cares about the product, the talent, and most importantly, the fans?
If it's the latter, then here I am.
