2018 and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling is still in business. I know, it's called Impact Wrestling now, but who would have figured that a company that seems to do everything wrong would still be in business?
Yes, a bit snarky to rag on a wrestling company, but I counter by showing what I'd do if the Jarretts hired me back in 2002.

Ideas that didn't quite take off: WWE-the Comic
Unearthing an old one here, but for a while I was quite the fan of professional wrestling. I still catch the occasional match, but there's just something about the old days.
So naturally I wanted to do a comic about it.
Now, I wasn't the first. Boom! Studios is actually doing a pretty good job (feel free to pick them at your local comic shop today!), but they weren't the first. In fact it seems that anyone who does a licensed WWE book seems to come to a bad end. Chaos Comics went under, as did Valiant, plus the utter madness that was Warrior. I was going to be different.
I wasn't. In fact anything that could go wrong did. My artist messed up his arm, the discs that had all my scripts got demagnetized and the hard drive bombed.
I posted the ideas on a wrestling message board, but it was shut down some time later.
So why not haul them out again?
