Now that I've had a some time to ponder the events of the Rumble, an interesting thought occurs to me. Over on TNA, the big story line is that a new "they" is coming. In other words, a face faction is forming to go against the bloated behemoth that is Immortal. Rumor has it that this face faction is none other then the Main Event Mafia. For the unaware, the Main Event Mafia was a stable that form backed in 2008. The group consisted of Kurt Angle, Booker T, Kevin Nash, Scott Steiner, Sting, and Samoa Joe. Around February of 2010, the group disbanded.
With Steiner's return on last week's impact, the Main Event Mafia theory seems all but a given. But getting back to my original point, two of the founding members of the Main Event Mafia just walked down the aisle at a WWE show. Where does that leave TNA's "they" storyline? At present, the new face faction consists of three men: Crimson, Kurt Angle, and Scott Steiner. These men are a against Immortal, a faction with at least a dozen members. With Booker and Kevin off the possible list, the only remaining original members of Main Event Mafia are Samoa Joe and Sting.
Joe is currently tied up in a feud with Pope. Sting "walked away" from the company a couple months ago. Is it possible that TNA will bring Sting back in? Yeah, I guess. If they get the right money figure, then Stinger just may count himself ranks of the new Main Event Mafia. Even so, that will set the stable at 4 guys. 4 versus 14. Those are still abysmal odds. If TNA truly wants to make this Immortal storyline interesting. Then they have to get all the faces on the same page. Otherwise, where is the drama?
