Why would he want to go back to TNA??
Christian is a midcard talent, who also issn't the youngest anymore. His role as uppermidcarder is fine.
Maybe in TNA he can win a ''world title'', but that roster is such a clusterfuck that even he, as a former WWE talent, will get lost in the shuffle like Kennedy, RVD and Burke.
Christian should stay with the WWE. He still has a place, great work rate, and I believe he will have some great upper mid card-main Smackdown event card feuds soon...or at least I hope.
stay in WWE obviously
if some of the reports I have read are true, which they very well could be false
christian doesnt even want to go to tna for their hof/bfg stuff, seems happy in wwe to me then
also i read that since wwe didnt have anythign for him at the time or want ot keep him off camera he is using the time to heal up to rest his ankle.
he is fine in wwe and there is no need to return to tna
He would have done well there a few years ago, but their roster is extremely stacked right now in the ME, so he wouldn't be doing much more there than in WWE except be in better storylines and have more mic freedom, but that's not remotely enough to warrant a promotion switch.
I'd actually prefer to see Christian in TNA at the moment. They're doing a fantastic job in regards to booking, and there's a ton of interesting feuds for him. Storm, Roode, Aries, Joe, Bully, Hardy, Angle, Daniels, and Styles would all be more than likely opponents.

In WWE, there's very little left for Christian to do. He'll probably spend the rest of his career putting over young talent in meaningless matches and poorly booked feuds. Honestly, I think the best that Christian can expect is stop-gap feuds with up'n'comers like Cesaro and Sandow.

As a fan, I want to see Christian at his best, and WWE are seemingly against allowing that to happen. Don't get me wrong, Christian should be putting over young talent - but as a veteran main eventer, not a throw-away midcarder.

His "treatment" of not being on tv at the moment is solely based on his TNA HoF deal, the Ric Christian HoF exchange. Christian is a guy who can build talent in WWE, and especially SD needs a guy like him, he WILL be back. If he switched to TNA right now, what could he do there? Main event is stuffed with talent over as shit, midcard/upper midcard is basically rebuilding of tag team division (sounds familiar? :D) and the X-division is dead atm because BFG and An8s. He would stand no chance in Main Event, he would have nothing to do in midcard/lower division, why would he want to switch?

Unless he would be the leader of Aces, that would give him something, but come on, Christian, Mister Super-bitchslap, the bad ass bike gang leader? :lmao
It depends on his financial situation. If he's one of those guys who is smart and saved his money and doesn't need WWE to live, I'd say go to TNA and try to help them compete with WWE.

Also, he'll get treated better than what he is right now. Or he can stay and put younger guys over while still making great money.
He should stay his not the youngest but he still hasnt accomplished EVERYTHING in the WWE. his yet to step out of edges shadow, probably cause of vinces unknown issue with him but his busted his ass to become a better worker he should atleast get another title run of any singles championship an this is probably wishful thinking on my part a rumble victory even though they dont mean main event wrestlemania anymore it will still be a nice feather in the cap. but i can understand his gate-keeper/jobber to the stars role, his injury prone the WWE probably doesnt want to risk putting him at the top an making him their marquee star.
He's not young, has no place in TNA, Smackdown needs him.
Obviously stay with WWE. He makes for more money there and Christian isn't treated bad at all. He's a multiple time tag team and IC champ and also a two WHC. And there's no doubt he'll get some new reigns later in his career.
I'm a Christian fan, but i'd rather he retire tbh. I just don't see Christian doing anything spectacular in WWE in the future. He's basically become a talent enhancement guy who works with the mid-carders now. But that's my opinion anyway.
leaving for tna again? what the fuck are u talking about. after wwe gave him the world title hes gonna run again in tna?
Nobody should EVER choose TNA. Ever. The top guy in TNA is lower than the bottom guy on NXT.
In 4 years he's won the ECW championship, the WHC twice, and the IC champ. He's good money, he's staying in the 'E.
WWE is the best place for him to be I would imagine (at least, I would think financially). However, in WWE he comes across as a small fish in a very big pond. Whereas in TNA, he walks in and feels like a big fucking deal. Personally, I like the way he can be used in TNA better, so that's my pick
TNAs roster is stacked. I doubt he'll do anymore there. And he needs his retirement cash.
TNA is a dump. At one point during Christian's run with them it was decent but now you couldn't pay me to watch their product. Christian has a job for life with WWE even after he is retired from the ring. He's not being treated "bad", not everyone can be Vince's golden boy.
