Introduction
2006 came the ratings are dropping, the big names are dropping WWE have hit a dry spell they needed to turn the company around, it would have been easy to pick up the phone and say "You're the new head booker" but WWE didn't go this route, instead they looked internally for their new bookers, went down to Jeffersonville, Indiana and saw the changes thatOhio Valley Wrestling had started to make. Zach Gould and Tobie Chapman had started their booking careers there working with the development talent, head booker, after head booker had come and gone from there.
Zach Gould was signed as major WWE writer, but given an order (don't hire Russo!!) all hirings must meet their standards, and his new assistant and sometimes talent scout Tobie Chapman have creative control over the 'E (but not over the 'H)
With WWE finally looking ahead to the future, TNA had grown tired of recycled angles, talent, and writers, Russo was fired after another match that involved a pole, TNA had finally lost patience, their search brought them to Jersey All Pro Wrestling, where a former CZW booker Dave Harding was working with the talent there. After unsuccessfully working with CZW he had returned to the small time and was working his way back up. WWE came calling a few weeks earlier, but found his style to be not what they were looking for, TNA however needed that something that Russo didn't have (talent perhaps?) and that is how TNA came to sign Dave Harding.
TNA has given him 6 months to work some magic with their roster, and with talent that comes his way, and soon we will see WWE vs TNA for the best wrestling company to date, will the Monday Night wars return? Will Russo pop up giving someone advice on how to murder a company?
So now we are entering a new age, young bookers, bringing new ideas, it's the WWE battling the small time TNA, can we finally see a WWE challenger, or will WWE kill off another challenger to thier empire?
