    I actually wish Chris had been given more of a singles run, his splitting with James Storm meant we got beer money, what would have been cool would have been Chris in a singles run and then James Storm and Booby Roode as the tag team he teams with occasionally, like ric flair and the andersons.

    Its a shame that such a talent was buried right off the get go when he signed with "New York" . It seems that every TNA alumni in the beginning that went over to "da E" would get buried asap. Same thing happened to Monty Brown. Im glad that AJ Styles was able to break that curse and become a huge player in WWE and even becoming a multi time champion for them.

    I understand WWE not wanting to use his old gimmick and name but Braden Walker is the best they had? They could have let him keep the name Harris and maybe use James as his first name as like a nod to his past and that name sounds a lot better, James Harris. As for a gimmick you could have had him be an old school style wrestler, he mentioned paying homage to Mr Perfect, so why not something like The Wrestling Machine James Harris
