Latest On Ultimate Warrior Joining TNA, Hebner Never Going Back To WWE, More

-- Officials are indeed trying to get the Ultimate Warrior to come to TNA. If he comes in, he would likely tag team with Sting. Should Warrior end up coming to TNA, it won't be happening at Slammiversary because no deal is done. In a trivia note, WCW's original plan for Warrior was to have him debut at the record setting July 7, 1998 Monday Nitro show at the Georgia Dome, which ended up featuring the memorable Goldberg title win over Hollywood Hogan. WCW's plan was to have Sting & Warrior team up to take on Hogan & The Giant. However, WCW couldn't seal the deal with Warrior in time and the match was called off. Warrior and Sting did team up at one point though. The two wrestled Hulk Hogan & Bret Hart on October 11, 1998 on Monday Nitro.

-- The Miami Herald has an article on TNA referee Earl Hebner, Hebner said he has no desire to return to World Wrestling Entertainment, but is okay with his son Brian returning. "I would never go back to WWE, but if that's what he wants. The reason I wouldn't go back to WWE is because I wouldn't be happy there. Even though it is more money than TNA pays me, TNA makes me happier. It's not a money factor for me now. It's being happy doing what you're doing and enjoying it."

-- TNA will be holding a house show at the ALLTEL Arena in North Little Rock, Arkansas on Sunday, July 20. Tickets go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m on TicketMaster.com.

TNA and Sting, the old Blade Runners, and when I say old, I mean old....a combined age of nearly a century. What a waste of money.

LOL, good point, back in the early 90's it would be a dream to see this team again, but nowdays both are way past their prime and should be sitting on the sidelines.

Lol i can picture this from here "Sting tags in the Ultra Slow Warrior! Oh my God! these 2 are awesome even if they are realy Slow." Im not against a possible return of the Warrior as long as it is not a full time gig. Other than that, they would be waisting their money.

I agree with Flair3.

I dont think TNA should let warrior come back full time. I dont think I could sit through impact with him on it every week.
