Buff Bagwell appeared on 4th & Pain where he cleared up rumors that Eric Bischoff spoke with him about returning to TNA Wrestling. The multi-time WCW Tag Team Champion says the conversation never took place, but he did speak with Sting about returning to the promotion.

Bagwell also weighs in on whether TNA’s decision to take Impact on the road will help grow the brand or prove to be the undoing of the company.

Most sensationally, Bagwell also reveals he essentially forfeited a $120,000 payday to join WWE immediately after Vince McMahon purchased World Championship Wrestling.

Bagwell also talks in depth about the seizure and car accident that nearly took his life. 4th & Pain is hosted by Washington Redskins defensive end Adam Carriker (@AdamCarriker94) and former wrestling announcer and weight loss champion Chuck Carroll (@TheChuckCarroll). Follow the show on Twitter: @4thAndPain.

I actually wouldn’t mind seeing Buff Bagwell (as close to the NWO as we’ll get for now) return, preferably to WWE, to bring some edge to a dull line up.

    I obviously watched Buff Bagwell to believe he is a change to the PG junk WWE is churning out that you obviously enjoy. Not that there is anything wrong that.

    The NWO grew from 3 guys to 20 or so and 2-3 similar groups, how is that holding anyone down?

      Haha wat a horrible arguement…dude those 20 guys were in the now but it doesn’t mean they were pushed….I mean dude hogan and Nash and Russo destroyed wcw…who was held down..everyone ..like r u shittin me. Ask hogan on twitter how many stars he buried. My last comment cause u clearly don’t know wcwmhistory at all. Andmtna had bagwell,they didnt use hi, cause he’s lame,and the fact that you put him over punk
