Would THE Brian Kendrick count?

 

I think we definatley need some kind of clarification.

 

Seems like Bourne would run away with a vote and I'm not even sure he qualifies since he's been around since 2004. If it's "debut" or "re-debut" fair enough but a 4 year veteran isn't a newcomer...

But if Matt Sydal's only run in the big two was a couple of one-off shots in TNA, I would think he should still be eligable for this as the 2008 Evan Bourne run was his first time as a full-time wrestler under contract in WWE or TNA.

 

Whereas Brian Kendrick has been on TV as a full-time contracted WWE wrestler for years now and simply had a gimmick change this year - he certainly would not count.

Evan Bourne does not count.

 

Seriously?!? :confused:

 

So with Ted Dibiase Jr wrestling for Pro Wrestling NOAH in 2007, Vladimir Kozlov & Dolph Ziggler appearing on Raw & Smackdown in 2006, Kofi Kingston appearing on ECW throughout December 2007 .... who's left?

Kozlov is fine, he never actually wrestled in 2006. Ziggler isn't.

 

Kingston is fine as he only started with ECW when it was about too late for last years awards.

 

Dibiase will have to be in the same boat as Bourne I suppose.

 

Bourne can't count, he worked for ROH for 3 years. That would be as ridiculous as Samoa Joe being the best newcomer in 2004 or 2005 or whenever it was that he started work for TNA.
