Jay "Christian" Reso made his debut last night at TNA's Genesis PPV after being hyped all week (and all night) as a "Major Acquisition" by TNA. His ring name is Christian Cage, the ring name he used back from before his WWE days. His TNA music is very similar to his former WWE music and his entrance video is a lot like Chris Jericho's, starting with a 10-second countdown.
There were many 'Christian' signs in the audience. Christian said when he broke onto the national wrestling scene 8 years ago, there were 2 companies: 1 was stale [WCW], 1 was young, hungry cutting edge [WWF]. Now, there are still 2 companies: 1 is stale [WWE] and 1 is young, hungry and cutting edge [TNA].
He denied that he was offered a 'lowball' contract by his former employer, and that he joined TNA for the same reason everybody in the arena is there tonight - because he loves WRESTLING.
He also said he's in TNA to take out Jeff Jarrett and claim the one thing that's alluded him his entire career - the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.
Scott D'Amore tried to recruit Christian to Team Canada, mentioning Adam (Edge), Lance (Storm), Chris Jericho and Bret (Hart) while talking about the great times they'd had together in the past. Team Canada member Bobby Roode referred to him as "Captain Charisma", as Mike Tenay chimed in, "That's his nickname!". Christian was handed a Team Canada shirt and said he would make a decision later tonight.
After the main event, the Dudley Boyz were getting beat down by Team Canada and Jeff Jarrett when Christian came to the ring wearing his hooded jacket. He took the jacket off to reveal a Team Canada shirt. Just as it seemed Christian had sided with the heels, he showsed his true colors by helping Team 3D clean house and put Jeff Jarrett through a table with a 3D.
Overal, a great debut for Christian, who was treated and came off as a major star.
