10 Years of TNA Impact Wrestling

10 Years of TNA Impact Wrestling

2002 - NWA-TNA

2012 - TNA Impact Wrestling



Hello Everybody as we are at the day of TNA slammiversary 2012 Celebrating the 10th Anniversary of TNA Impact Wrestling. 

Alot of Fans did not think TNA would have got this far and had Jeff Jarrett not taken the chance to create a wrestling company in 2002 Impact Wrestling would not exist as we see it today.

Of Course there have been Many Ups and Downs in the history of TNA For the last 10 years TNA has been learning.

The Impact Wrestling that we see today is improving week on week and being Live on Thursdays will certainly help increase Impact Wrestling profile. 

I want to concentrate on the positives so here I'm going to give you in My Opinion 5 of TNA Wrestling Greatest  Moments. These are just in my opinion and of course yours may differ these are some that came to mind writing this so please click on the videos below to view some of the moments I have chosen.

Kurt Angle's Debut in TNA going Head to Head with Samoa Joe


For Me this was a huge moment for TNA Wrestling I had not seen as much TNA wrestling up to this point and I can remember the shock and disbelief I had when Kurt Angle showed up in TNA. The Kurt vs Joe series was extremely entertaining and I think this was by far the biggest transition of an active "in Their Prime Wrestler" from WWE to TNA in the history of the company.

Jeff Jarrett Starts TNA Impact Wrestling 



As I said above Without Jeff Jarrett Starting TNA in 2002 It would not be here today.This video is Jeff Jarrett from 2011 talking about the evolution of TNA and also the early years of TNA what at that point they had achieved and also what he thinks needed to change to bring more success to TNA and the TNA Product as a whole.

Hulk Hogan Debuts with Impact Wrestling


Something I think alot of fans thought we would not see but you can never say never in wrestling. The Hulkster coming to TNA had alot of people wondering what affect he would have on the company and what strides the company would take. Its fair to say that the direction with Hulk has changed a few times since his debut but in addition I think its fair to say that now in a GM Role of Impact Wrestling he is doing a great job and it is a perfect role for him in TNA.

TNA Wrestling Debut's On Challenge TV in The UK


For Me being a fan in the UK this was a huge moment for me! In The UK we have not had Wrestling on free to air British TV since WCW went of the air in 2001. In 2011 Impact Debuted on Challenge TV. TNA before this was on Bravo until Bravo was brought out by Sky TV. TNA had to find a new home and thankfully they found Challenge. It has been great having TNA on free to Air TV and it has given them so much exposure in the UK. This was a great business move by TNA and I hope this long continues. They have no competition on Free to Air TV in the UK and also PPV's are shown for free in the UK every Wednesday after it airs live on Sunday in America. 


TNA's Awesome in Ring Moments



A video I found on Youtube of some of the great moments in TNA wrestling history! This is what TNA is about the Action, The x Division Matches the courage and the ability of the wrestlers to give 110% whenever they go out to the ring. Thought this would be a great way to finish off a top  5 of TNA. Sit back and watch some awesome moments from the early years of TNA.

Thanks for Reading

WWE Royal Rumble 2013 Ziggler is Lucky Number 1...or 2

WWE Royal Rumble 2013 Ziggler is Lucky Number 1 (or 2) Dolph Ziggler This Sunday 27th January 2013 WWE Royal Rumble will air. Generally One of the best WWE PPV's of the year. This year 30 Man Royal Rumble match has alot of intrigue built into it most people are of the opinion that John Cena will be winning this years event and then go on to face The Rock at Wrestlemania. However after seeing this past Monday's WWE raw WWE might have something else in mind.,.,,  Royal Rumble 2013 A Beat the clock challenge took place on WWE Raw and the winner of this we were originally told could pick their number for the Royal Rumble Match. Dolph Ziggler Ends up winning the Beat The Clock challenge then when he is bragging about this Vicki Guerreo informs Ziggler that it is not a free choice of Royal Rumble Entry number instead it is a number chosen within a certain range Number one to Number two. Here's what WWE could do This I feel is the ideal opportunity fo

AEW All Elite Wrestling to Sky Sports in The UK?

AEW  All Elite Wrestling to Sky Sports in The UK?  All Elite Wrestling airs in the UK on ITV 4 on a Friday night and ITV Hub (Itv on demand service should be uploaded on a Thursday) ITV don't air AEW Dynamite live and a separate subscription has to be purchased via Fite.TV if fans wish to do this.  Initially things started off OK although @itvwrestling had difficulties getting Dynamite on ITV Hub on time (they promised Thursdays at 7pm) usually this was up on a Friday morning. However as the weeks went on the uploading to ITV hub did not get any better and as of this writing its as worse as it has ever been they don't upload the episodes consistently which is leaving many fans frustrated and ITV Wrestling haven't been communicating with fans. @ITV Wrestling haven't tweeted about AEW since Dec 5th - they haven't updated any of their graphics since Full Gear and ITV wrestling now seem totally disconnected from the fans and from my perspective th

Strike Wrestling Results Bournemouth May 20th 2018

Strike Wrestling Results Bournemouth May 20th 2018   Hello Wrestling fans! Welcome to the first ever Strike Wrestling Results blog!  I went to Bournemouth and took x2 trains and a bus to get there and it was well worth the effort. Before I get to the wrestling a bit about Bournemouth Bournemouth is a beautiful town it was a sunny hot day. I managed to go to the beach and see the pier and get a great view from Bournemouth on top of the cliffs, where there were also many of great restaurants and places to eat. Check out my on the road video on Strike Wrestling by clicking the video below! This was my first show at Strike Wrestling and Strike is an over 18’s show so I was expecting a different vibe, feel and presentation to family orientated wrestling that I have attended in the past. Strike wrestling is high paced, hard hitting, fast action but with a huge streak of entertainment, fun and having a great time.   From where I was
