Is James Storm jumping back to TNA from NXT the worst career move ever?

Bobby Lashley leaving WWE when he was clearly going to be the cornerstone of the company ALONG SIDE cena going forward.

The money he left on the table is incomporable even with the push he is getting now. I am not questioning his REASONING, however.

Nah, I respect lashley even more for what he did compared to the c00ns who usually stay at WWE kissing Vince's ass.

ehh, he was European Champion in WWE, not really doing anything, just feuding with Ken Shamrock off and on.

He probably got paid well in WCW
He had some big matches for that European title...meanwhile...in WCW he was used sparingly on Thunder where he got to have programs with illustrious superstars like Mongo...Disco Inferno...and Das Wunderkind Alex Wright. Then he ruined his career and ultimately his life by getting injured on The Ultimate Warriors trap door. Fighting paralysis and 6 months in the hospital ending with a FedExed pink slip...WORTH IT!

Storm made the right move. Not only that, he was straight up told to go back to TNA, because he was going to get more money there than NXT. Showing up for two eps of NXT got him a bigger deal than he had previously with TNA, which was a lot more than what he was going to get in NXT.

Breh the future is uncertain in TNA, I would have stayed put for sure.

Would they though? I don't know how it would work.

Because they obviously liked him and were looking out for his career telling him to go back to TNA to get the extra money while he can. Why wouldn't they bring him back? It's not like they fired him.

Only reason Storm left was because TNA was about to get cancelled so he hopped off that sinking ship. Once TNA somehow got that PopTV deal it was business as usual and he hopped back.

He left because his contract was up and they were offering him less money to re-sign, which is the same reason AJ left. Then they offered him more than his original contract to come back, and WWE told him to take the deal.
