Former TNA champ says WWE buyout wouldn't be so bad:

Magnus has shared his view on the current state of TNA...

"It would be sad (but) if it's not going to be in a good place, then it may be a better thing. If they get acquired by WWE, it won't be the worst thing in the world. If they are going to cease operating at least they could live forever on the Network and have a good legacy. I hope everyone there is having fun and continuing to make money."

TNA star starts working for WWE:

Cody Rhodes talks possible WWE return:

"I don't know, I don't think the door to WWE ever closes. I'm always been told that the revolving door – you know, it's a tricky question because there were a lot of genuinely large issues for me personally that it would be hypocritical for me to just go back, they would need to be fixed. We don't have to get into all of those but that's something I've wrestled with, whenever somebody, anybody says would you ever go back – the fans dictate what we do to begin with so if the fans wanted me back, that's not something I would not consider but I made all my decisions and they were really tough decisions for the reasons given so the last thing you want to do is be a huge hypocrite and show back up unless there was a damn good reason. With that said, there's plenty of good reasons. They do a really good job of honouring my father and it is strange, kind of like how we began the conversation, it is strange to be on the outside of that. It's not just strange for me, it's strange for them. Believe me, there's various texts back and forth about it, that's why there's no reason to say anything negative right now about my name because this month, I look at it like this is about my dad, the tag tournament and these youngsters, they're not youngsters, some of them might be older than me. These NXT talent, these stars going for the Dusty Classic and that's what needs to take the focus. That's kind of why I have been hush-hush about the name."

He did though say he would struggle to refuse to present the Dusty Rhodes trophy, if WWE asked him to do the job, as he did last year.

TNA sued again:
