The WWE creative team remains without any worry that TNA will make a major statement during the wrestling companies’ head-to-head battle Monday night, according to a Sunday report by F4WOnline.com.
That is not to say WWE creative team members and other employees are not interested in seeing what TNA offers Monday–it is simply a sign that WWE is not currently afraid of the potential impact the Hulk Hogan debut could have on its dominance.
Within WWE, there has also been some mocking of the fact that the only matches TNA is definitively hyping are Knockouts bouts (the “Steel Asylum” match does not have the competitors hyped). Some this weekend were joking that WWE should put Maryse on television every time a Knockouts match airs to show that one woman could dominate the other company’s entire division in the ratings.
