| 1 | 17.03.2024 | GoldLiger | 8.0 | There are some bad booking decisions & genuinely bad reigns mixed into this lineage, but you look at the insane list of names who have held this, and remember some of the more notable reigns (the four longest in AJ's first, Shelley's, Roode's first, and Alexander's second alongside some of what Sting, Lashley, Angle, Galloway, Hardy, etc. did with it), this is still one of the most prestigious World Titles in western wrestling, and that has been held up beautifully in the 2020s despite some serious foibles in the past (even then one of those was more on Tessa than TNA/Impact since the angle that lead her to win the belt was perfectly sound and she just torpedoed her reputation herself). It's a shame that the lowest point in Jeff Hardy's career and one of the most embarrassing moments in TNA's history was in a match for this title, but that's one match. |

| 4 | 29.01.2024 | Moose Nugget | 6.0 | There's been great wrestlers who have held this title, and some with great reigns as well. The problem is the booking in TNA damaged the title, and it felt like Russo was ready to do some wacky stuff right after The NWA took their title back and the restraints around their top title was taken away. |
| 5 | 13.01.2024 | DeLorean9 | 9.0 | Ever since Josh Alexander won World Title from Christian Cage it was booked brilliantly and every new Champion elevated the title bit more and left his mark on its legacy. Josh Alexander and Alex Shelley in last couple of years did especially well to further establish and even elevate what has become one of more respected and important titles in all of wrestling. |

Rarely are Impact title defenses anything but good or better. If Impact can grow it's fanbase this will be a must see title. 2023 edit: Since I first reviewed this title it has seen Josh Alexander's fantastic run and had several MOTYC level defenses. I will bump my rating up to a 7 from a 6. |

| 49 | 25.02.2021 | 5nicoShuffle | 8.0 | Always thought that this was a very well booked title, with most champions fully deserving to hold the biggest prize of the company - minus a few exceptions of course. And while not always being seen as prestigious, it helped the likes of EC3, Nick Aldis, Eric Young & Eli Drake get used to the main event scene. |
| 50 | 13.02.2021 | BUIOOMEGA | 10.0 | One of my faves. The story of this title is fascinating to me, great champions (and a lot of downs anyways) but always great feelings about it. |

| 61 | 25.02.2019 | Klabauter | 8.0 | Der Titel machte das gleiche auf und ab durch, wie seine Mutter-Promotion. Momentan befindet er sich ebenso wie die Liga selbst (vom kreativen Standpunkt her, nicht vom Rating-Standpunkt her) im Aufschwung mit guten Namen als Champions, die den Titel wieder Prestige verlieren. Auch das Re-Design hilft sehr den Titel wieder ernster genommen werden zu können. Alles in Allem bin ich momentan bei 8 Punkten. |
| 62 | 18.02.2019 | Kevin41182 | 7.0 | Though it's been a rough half decade for this belt, the strap still holds quite a bit of its importance it had back in TNA's golden era. Men like Bobby Roode, AJ Styles, Kurt Angle all held the belt at one time or another. I hope we see a resurgence with this belt as it's been one of the more entertaining championships of the 2000s. |

| 64 | 14.01.2019 | TylerWhite | 8.0 | Ein guter Titel der eine lange Historie von sehr guten Wrestlern besitzt. Natürlich wurde er lange Zeit von Ex-WWE Leuten getragen, was nicht unbedingt das beste war und dadurch stand er damals auch im Schatten des X-Division Titels. Mittlerweile ist die Liste der Titelträger aber unglaublich gut geworden und fast nur große und sehr starke Wrestler haben ihn in den letzten Jahren getragen und in starken Matches verteidigt. |

| 70 | 27.07.2018 | TPhoenix25 | 8.0 | I've always felt the importance and prestige of the Impact World Championship through the appearance of the belt, the great matches it has been contested in, how it is featured and always presented in the main event of the card, even before considering the title reigns. I say this especially after Impact severed their alliance with NWA in 2007 and started introducing sleeker versions of the title. Guys like AJ Styles, Kurt Angle, Sting, Jeff Jarrett, Christian Cage, Bobby Roode and Austin Aries established and brought legitimacy, seeing how they are such remarkable talent on the mic and in between the ropes. The down years where the value truly suffered began with the Mick Foley reign in 2009 before Angle and Styles thankfully got their subsequent runs. Things escalated during the Hogan/Bischoff era; however, when title reigns began to be thrown all over and predominantly given to former WWE stars such as RVD (month after debuting and beating the company goldenboy AJ Styles like nothing), then you had the subpar exchanges between Mr. Anderson and Jeff Hardy (that Divas Championship-looking Hardy version belt was so ugly and demeaning), then finally Bobby Roode reigns champion for a glorious 256 days which rejuvenates the value and worth. Ever since, the champions and reigns from what I've seen, have been fine minus a few reigns where I felt some guys shouldn't have been in that spot like Chris Sabin, Drew Galloway, Alberto El Patron and to a lesser extent Eric Young (if only he had his badass gimmick of 2016 in 2014) in retrospect. Greatest match for the TNA/Impact World Championship? That has got to be either AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe vs Christopher Daniels at Turning Point 2009, AJ Styles vs Kurt Angle at Genesis 2010, Sting vs Jeff Jarrett at BFG 2006, Kurt Angle vs Samoa Joe at Lockdown 2007, Bobby Roode vs Austin Aries at Destination X 2012... I can't decide, too many fantastic matches to name and few characters left to name them all. |

| 75 | 22.04.2018 | InactiveGuru | 6.0 | Despite the really low ratings lately I honestly think the title is on the up with Aries winning it and nothing has been god awful, while Eli Drake isn't the best in the ring he can certainly talk which sort of made sense for the title and previously we've had decent matches and good title holders but all the name changes recently, were they really all necessary? |

| 77 | 22.02.2018 | Nikito222 | 2.0 | Once, this was one of the most prestigious titles in the world. There were times when it was thought that it would be the next WWE Championship, being awarded to those wrestlers who had not achieved it in that company. However, they focused too much on that, without taking care of their own talent. Some were not even what they promised, and they began to bequeath the boring and predictable fights. Now look, today serves as an accessory for Austin Aries. It seems that now anyone can win this championship with just ask. People complain about Brock as a Universal Champion, but if we're honest, a freelancer is no better than a part-timer. |

| 83 | 28.01.2017 | steviecw | 8.0 | TNA have made some moves that I'm not crazy about but I think the PWI was just being a bit confrontational 'taking away' their World title status. While improvements could be made and certain reigns could have been longer or more fighting, a lot of very notable and often legendary wrestlers have held this title and none of them have stagnated the title lineage through endless repeat reigns (Cena / Orton / HHH). Some legends have held this title (Sting, Foley, RVD, Kurt Angle), some of the world's current best (AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Bobby Roode, Austin Aries) while in 2016 we had Drew Galloway, EC3, Bobby Lashley, Mike Bennett, Eddie Edwards and James Storm killing themselves to be champion - that's something I'd class as prestigious. |
| 84 | 24.12.2016 | test85 | 4.0 | Für mich kein ernstzunehmender World Championship mehr. Während man stark begann, kam irgendwo dann die Wende. Champions wie Anderson oder auch Sabin entpuppten sich als Flops. Dazu war Sabins Regentschaft auch noch ungünstig gewählt. Es folgten dann auch noch so glorreiche Champions wie Magnus oder Eric Young. Und zu guter Letzt auch noch Lashley, der für mich kein Aushängeschild einer Company ist. Litt auch durch die vielen sinnlosen Wechsel. |
| 85 | 17.12.2016 | Sonny Black | 9.0 | |
| 86 | 08.12.2016 | KASH | 3.0 | Der Titel ist absolut wertlos. Ein Titel, der Monate nicht ausgefochten wird, weil die Company ihre Shows monatelang im voraus taped, kann keinen Wert besitzen. TNA ist mittlerweile so low, dass der Titel bei absolut unwichtigen Indyevents "ausgefochten" wird. 3 Punkte für die ersten paar Jahre, der Rest ist schrott. |
| 87 | 08.10.2016 | GammeLP | 3.0 | Am Anfang war der Titel durchaus zu gebrauchen mit Titelträgern wie AJ Styles oder Kurt Angle, aber in letzter Zeit ging es steil bergab. Gefühlt wird dieser Titel nur rumgereicht. Kein World-Title sollte derartig oft wechseln. Dazu kommen Titelträger die in einer ernst zu nehmenden Promotion einfach keinen World-Title halten sollten. Außerdem gab es in den letzten Jahren kein einziges richtig geiles Match für diesen Titel. |

| 95 | 09.06.2016 | KimboSlice | 10.0 | definitiv ein Titel mit reichlich Prestige! Und seit Drew Galloway auch wieder ein World-Titel. Der Championship wurde fast immer stark vom jeweiligen Champion repräsentiert und seit knapp drei Jahren stimmen auch wieder die Storylines dafür. Lashley, Hardys, EC3, Galloway... all diese Männer lieferten bisher hervorragende Arbeit. Und geebnet wurde der Weg von Stars wie Kurt Angle, Sting, AJ Styles... zweifelsohne einer der wichtigsten Heavyweight Titel. |

| 98 | 07.04.2016 | NoName | 5.0 | Es gibt sicherlich schlechtere Titel, allerdings hat der Titel meiner Meinung nach extrem an Prestige verloren, seitdem er bei gefühlt jedem Taping wechselt, Ich hoffe die Booker sehen bald mal ein, dass man die Titel nicht so oft wechseln sollte, weil sie sonst Wertlos werden! |
| 99 | 25.02.2016 | MAGICIAN | 8.0 | Auch wenn die Company immer weiter den Bach herunter geht, hat der Titel immer noch Prestige (wenn man mal 2011 herausnimmt). So viele große Namen hielten diesen Titel und das Design ist ebenfalls ordentlich. Insgesamt als "gut" zu bewerten. |
