Two of WWE’s biggest stars have been urged to go back to TNA Wrestling.
Several years ago, World Wrestling Entertainment released Drew McIntyre following a lacklustre run. However, instead of complaining, McIntyre spent time honing his craft. He made a name for himself in the indies and TNA/Impact Wrestling before heading back to the Stamford-based company. Similarly, former two-time WWE Champion AJ Styles also hailed from Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, although he wasn’t someone with a brief stint in the promotion. He was one of their original stars. Now, the Nashville-based promotion’s former World Champion Steve Maclin wants these two major WWE Superstars back in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling.
Speaking to SportsKeeda’s WrestleBinge, Maclin opened up on the names he wants to lock up against amidst the ongoing WWE-TNA collaboration.
There’s a lot of talent there. Not so much in NXT but there are a lot of former TNA talent that I would love to mix it up, on RAW and SmackDown. Like, Drew McIntyre and AJ Styles would be somebody I would love to cross that line and see back in a TNA ring. I think the whole world would love to see that.”
He further stated,
I think that’s the right and the right moment kind of thing, if it ever does happen. And if it doesn’t, it doesn’t. It’s okay, but it is something of one of those what-ifs. It’s kind of like The Undertaker-Sting match, you always wanted. It’s one of those moments but if you don’t get it, you always think of, what if? So, its just its own creativity in it’s own mind.”
