| 4 | 09.09.2024 | Saladbagel | 8.0 | TNA has been consistently entertaining within its niche for the past few years. While some people were worried that the company would flounder without Scott D'Amore, Anthem has done an excellent job getting TNA to even higher heights than before. Its partnership with WWE is great thus far, although you're bound to get some fans who disagree on that matter. Nonetheless, TNA has had several memorable eras that most wrestling companies would wish they had, especially with the amazing roster that has graced the company throughout the years like AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Awesome Kong, Josh Alexander, Joe Hendry, and Jordynne Grace. Too many people focus on TNA's bad years and are obsessed with "LOLTNA" to see how great this show is. Of course, such a boring era dampens the overall score, so I think 8/10 is fair. |

| 7 | 30.08.2024 | Tnawrestling numbers | 8.0 | 8/10 rating overall (Potential 9/10) TNA Wrestling has a long history and went through many historical changes. As WCW/ECW closed down new companies emerged in 2002 such as NWA-TNA, MLW , RoH and more. The Asylum included tons of Indy wrestlers from NWA Wild side , Former USWA wrestlers , IWA wrestling , AAA Lucha and more. Jeff Jarrett's weekly ppv system was cumbersome , but looking back at the matches on TNA+/Impact + the matches are still classics.In 2005 -2006 , former WWE superstars joined the company , and the biggest name at that time was Kurt Angle. 2005 marked the year that TNA was aired on former relaunched TNN channel Spike Tv. 2005 -2009 were the years of Kurt Angle , Booker T , Samoa Joe , The HArdys , Christian Cage , Aj Styles , Mick Foley , and more. TNA Wrestling was able to continue Tv-14 Wrestling after the Chris Benoit incident , WWE's 15+ year TV-pg /NXT era , and the fall of the failed Ecw. 2010- 2013 were the TNA-WCW years of Bischoff , Hogan , and Dixie Carter. The quality of WWE was becoming more boring as Barack/Michelle Obama were strict on pro wrestling . UFC's Ultimate Fighter also helped with the ratings of TNA Wrestling. 2012 was one of the flashiest years of TNA Wrestling , and they were a stronger rival than AEW of today. Disagreements , greed , lies , deaths , or evil led to Tna being pulled off of Spike Tv , but Spike Tv eventually was removed off of air for good. 2015 -2019 TNA Wrestling bounced between different stations , but the show still pulled strong numbers in 2016. In 2016 , several Indy wrestling companies took over , and the unprofessionalism of Indy Wrestling took a toll on TNA Wrestling. Chikara , Evolve , ROH , JAPW , Defiant , WWN, DragonGate USA , and more all worked against TNA Wrestling. The mid 2010s were questionable for pro wrestling , and many of their actions countered against the industry. Most of the Indy companies of the mid 2010s were closed down , but the Mid 2010 era led to the #SpeakOut Allegations of 2019-2020. In 2017 Jeff Jarrett left Tna Wrestling as the company was brought out . Jeff Jarrett's Global Force Wrestling failed because of Local southern attitudes towards foreign countries. If Jeff Jarrett was in another country then the Global Force Wrestling would have succeeded. The opening Intro to Impact Wrestling in 2018 featured names of other countries. The bitterness of Jeff Jarett/no longer controlling led to attacks against the company. The ONO ppvs from 2016 -2018 worsened in quality. Impact Wrestling also continued to work with enemy hostile company Ring Of Honor. From 2018-2020 Impact Wrestling experimented with their own Indy Wrestling shows . Impact Wrestling held cross platform Indy Shows named Twitch Specials. Impact Wrestling gave Ring Of Honor the opportunity to air their pay per views for money? ! ? Gone were the consistency of monthly shows. Impact Wrestling wasn't affected by the #Speakout Sexual Allegations unlike WWE , Chikara , and especially Ring of Honor. Cov-19, sexual harassment , black lives matters , terrorism , piracy , sports declined Impact Wrestling in 2019. 2020 Impact Wrestling were to start a new year on Axs TV$ . Impact Wrestling lost some viewers because of the stupidity of Sami Callihan V. Tessa Blanchard . Tessa Blanchard became the first woman to hold the Impact Wrestling World Championship. There was still some comeback in Impact Wrestling , but the Industry already turned on TNA/Impact for All Elite Wrestling. 2021 was an off year as D'Lo Brown entered impact wrestling , and Christian Cage/Kenny Omega brought All Elite Wrestling into TNA Wrestling . Stupid IMpact/TNA Wrestlers grinned as they gave up their rivalry to drop down to an NXT Level. 2022 brought in classic wrestlers back to Impact , but the biggest story was RING OF HONOR's :HONOR NO MORE. Ring Of Honor Wrestling was sold to Chicago Pakistani-American Tony Khan of Jacksonville , FL. 2023 started off with action from ATL , GA , North Carolina , Florida and more. The whole first half of the year up to Emergence was wasted. Jonathon Gresham (ROH)of ATL, GA does not fit in with Impact/TNA Wrestling. Who could forget the Bound for GLory 2023 stunt where Impact Wrestling was rebranded back to TNA Wrestling? RIng Of Honor/ECW Wrestling caused the most damage to the company. Ring Of Honor stole most of TNA Wrestling's show , roster , Talent , and bad-mouthed them in the sports industry. TNA Wrestling fell off because they are evil. New Japan Pro Wrestling/MLW have no business double crossing TNA Wrestling . TNA Wrestling has a clean look , but Ring of Honor is infested with sexual Allegations. ALL Elite Wrestling started as an incident infested , police involved , and biased company. TNA Wrestling can't make a return even if they remove the free ppvs of YouTube , free HDTv channels , and Free content . It's saddening the condition of TNA Wrestling , and one day even Maple Leaf Wrestling (Owned by Scott D'amore) will surpass TNA Wrestling. |
| 8 | 30.08.2024 | Masterblaster424 | 8.0 | When I started watching the product in 2006 I thought it was good beginning in 07-09 though too much of the spotlight was put on the old guard and then came Hogan and Bischoff who nearly killed the product in 2010-2013 however thankfully the company has recovered in the years since it's still needs to get back to what I remember namely bring back the 6 sided ring, bring back Lockdown |
| 9 | 27.08.2024 | Pigeon Scratch | 8.0 | I can't help but have respect and love for TNA due to their inability to collapse, even when all hopes seemed lost. It's history is seriously all over the place, but that is never because of a lack of talent. They've always been in contention for having the best roster for a long time, holding some of the best workers and absolute legends for most of it's history. It's just a shame a lot of the misfortunes of this company and it's history is almost entirely because of management and the difficulties of trying to run a wrestling promotion right after the death of any real competition for WWE. Jeff Jarrett and his father did something really admirable trying to start TNA, and honestly did better than you'd assume considering everything. Things began going downhill the more Jeff Jarrett stepped away from the company, and Dixie Carter began running it on her own. She seriously had no idea what she was doing, and she depended on people she shouldn't have. Vince Russo, Hulk Hogan, Eric Bischoff, Billy Corgan, so on and so forth. The first three in that list especially tanked the company for most of it's life. Things only began improving with Anthem becoming involved, and Scott D'Amore stepping in and turning this ship around, only to be unceremoniously let go by Anthem right when TNA came back. Still, TNA is finally at a full sail upswing, with a great roster full of dependable and even great workers, a working relationship with WWE (didn't see that one coming! ), and some of the best outlooks this company has had in years. It's good to see TNA thrive again. |

| 12 | 20.08.2024 | AttitudeAggression | 9.0 | TNA is a weird promotion in the sense of they have gone through so much, but are still around. Nowadays, they are the 3rd biggest promotion and feel like ECW. WWE is themselves and AEW which is in the WCW spot. Impact however is the strongest they have been awhile. Pretty much 2018 to as of writing this they have been really solid. They continue to get rid of all the damage from the dark years that they had, and are putting on an amazing product. The storylines are great and so are the matches. The show has so much life now and has tons of amazing talent. I only wish they kept Scott D'Amore, but they continue to put on a great show. |
| 13 | 17.08.2024 | Enchantium | 8.0 | I used to be an avid watcher of TNA in 2010-2013, as it seemed like a really enjoyable product when I was a kid, and I will always remember the fun times during those years watching AJ Styles, as his young self was a joy to watch. Not even just those names, but the former greats around with Sting, Kurt Angle, and Jeff Hardy, and the TNA names with Abyss, Beer Money, and the upcoming likes of Samoa Joe. What a time to be a kid, but I haven't really watched much of the recent products besides glimpses of Joe Hendry. Besides that, my rating was during the period of 2010-2013 than anything current. |
| 14 | 14.08.2024 | Willie 19200 | 9.0 | It's had many ups, and some downs, but overall TNA has always been one of my favorite wrestling promotions. The early days of TNA were so much fun and was the biggest rival to the WWE since WCW. In the later years it kinda slowed down with Impact but it was still a really fun promotion for fans to watch. It's AEW collaboration was really good with them having one of the best wrestlers in the world in Kenny Omega as your World Champion was a good decision. Earlier in 2024 they made the switch back to TNA and is now doing better with a great line-up of champions and their most recent collaboration with WWE and NXT. Their collaboration with NXT has been so much fun with wrestlers feuding between brands and I hope they do so much more down the road. Moral of the story is that I think TNA is awesome. |

| 16 | 12.08.2024 | ScoobyStu82 | 9.0 | TNA was the first wrestling promotion I got into after finding out that there were promotions other than WWE in 2018. I caught every show from March 2018 up to Bound For Glory where I watched Austin Aries no-sell the finish after losing the title to John Morrison and fell out of love with the promotion, watching a champion I'd actually started liking after a while just up and leave, showing blatant unprofessionalism that soured me on Impact overall. When Joe Hendry made his return in 2022, I started tuning in a little bit more - and I've started really liking TNA again to the point where it might be my 2nd favourite promotion to watch right now. The only downside to me is that with the recent WWE collaborations, a lot of NXT guys are getting more shots than hard-working TNA guys. Personally I think this stands out the most in the most recent episode of TNA, where Speedball Mike Bailey practically defending the X-Division title didn't come close to main eventing, but Hendry vs Wolfgang, a match that only furthers an NXT storyline, even if it involves the most popular TNA wrestler right now, main evented instead. TNA is slowly becoming a feeder system to WWE (especially with NXT getting Hendry & Grace while the biggest star TNA has got was Wes Lee, who to be fair is a big star but isn't one of NXT's top stars right now), and like ROH with AEW, it feels insulting to such an influential promotion with two decades worth of history to just fall to the wayside all for the sake of a larger company. Hopefully, TNA doesn't end up like ROH, and can continue on the roll it has been on recently |
| 17 | 08.08.2024 | AmirTheEnforcer | 7.0 | This promotion has a rich history and has contributed a lot to the formation of modern wrestling as we know it and a lot of our favorite talents come from TNA. However, a combination of bad decision and bad luck led to their fall from glory somewhere in late 2000s and early 2010s. Fortunately, now they are getting a grip on the promotion and they have started to revitalize a few things and I'm looking forward to more good things happening to them. |

If we look at the history, tna can evaluate it well, the 6-corner ring and x-division title matches were really good. Factors such as the Impact transformation, the change of hands of the promotion have always worn down tna. |

| 34 | 28.06.2024 | Chris777 | 8.0 | TNA slander is one of the funniest phenomena that has been so consistent throughout history where people don't watch or only hear them from the observer or wrestling media constantly trash on it, which will be correct but for very wrong reasons. 05 TNA was the best promotion on the planet, the X divison was hot, the main event is over, people are jumping ships and crossing lines, some of the most legendary moments were created, but they never got the recognition they deserve only years later. When hogan era sucked and IMPACT sucked, there are still plenty hidden gems and positive that gets broad brushed. now that TNA is on the upswing again, wrestling fans still fall to recognize what TNA is doing great at, whether it's the knockouts or the eye of talent for great new indie talents. You got your constistently solid matches, you got your decently pace somewhat interesting storyline, it's nowhere near a 5. |
| 35 | 22.06.2024 | CoRdel | 7.0 | |
| 36 | 20.06.2024 | YellowJournalism | 4.0 | TNA is a mixed bag promotion, but the way it currently exists it has plenty of the indie stink on it. A lot of out of shape 50 year old indie / ecw wrestlers getting booked into matches & storylines for no reason. The current stories aren't all that compelling, and most of the matches aren't anything special. I usually finish watching a TNA show with the feeling that my time would've been better spent on most anything else. |

| 40 | 16.06.2024 | twinkerton | 6.0 | One of the most hit-or-miss promotions in modern wrestling history. The same company that gave us AJ/Joe/Daniels is also the company that gave us some of the worst matches in the history of wrestling. Kurt Angle, AJ Styles, Rhino, Samoa Joe, and many other wrestlers did some of their best work in TNA. The company also had plenty of russo-riffic and hogan-riffic storylines that made all of the stars they made themselves like Joe and AJ look like complete jokes. Over the years the quality has gone up and down, but I've enjoyed plenty that TNA/iMPACT has had to offer over the years. |

The 2010s were a harsh time for them, however by the end Scott D'Amore managed to turn them completely 180. That's why I'm afraid of what the future holds for them. Scott clearly knew what he was doing and I'm not sure if "the suits" from Anthem will continue to lead this federation as well as he used to do. |

| 48 | 17.05.2024 | Jordan Impact | 8.0 | A very good solid promotion these days and offer a lot of variety for most wrestling fans. They have one the most underrated women? s divisions in my opinion plus my favourite wrestler is here (that? s Rosemary by the way) |
| 49 | 16.05.2024 | Open The Vault | 6.0 | TNA is in a very weird area from what I've seen so far. It never really excells to anything to great but it stays around mediocre to decent at shows but they have some good events. They have the balls to try new things and storylines and are willing to give chances but theirs some kinks that need to be worked out. 6/10 |
| 50 | 15.05.2024 | gilmoregirls | 9.0 | I have a lot of fond memories watching TNA over the years. Tons of incredible talent in and out of the doors. Obviously there were a lot of problems and criticisms, but I have to give the total history of TNA an 9.0 It's a shame that they were the pariah of the IWC during their hottest eras. Wrestling fans missed out on some good matches if they were caught in the tribalism. |
| 51 | 12.05.2024 | LMC | 6.0 | TNA has always been a bit of a revolving door for talent. But despite that obstacle its lasted 20+ years. Its had some rough periods (such as the GFW rebrand and early days of so called Hogan era in early 2010) but for me has always been a fun promotion to come back to from time to time like an old friend. |

| 56 | 27.04.2024 | mxkami | 7.0 | I love TNA. No satire here. I *adore* TNA, and have converted my partner to the same mindset during their 6 years of watching pro wrestling as a whole. The best booked North American women's division (and it is NOT close, coming from someone who watches Japanese wrestling more than anything else), a stacked roster, some of the most beautiful Championship belts in the business as a whole, fun promotion-exclusive match stipulations, and a stroke of genius in rebranding back to TNA and going all in on themselves and their former identity. Yet, I only rate them a 7 as of today. I am not sure that there is a wrestling company today that has continued to have success (whether you like it or not) on the scale that they do, while simultaneously almost always shooting themselves in the foot... then the d***... then breaking all of their own fingers. When it's good, you go "wow... people should put some respect on TNA... look at these matches, look at this roster"... Then the inevitable happens and we all once again just collectively sigh and go "oh... there it is." Top this with today's climate of them forcing Scott D'Amore out of the company because he felt that there needed to be a shift in procedure to maintain their momentum, and you have a cocktail of everything TNA embodies, thus making those of us who stick around feel unseen, sad, and unfulfilled. |

| 60 | 20.04.2024 | BruceMarcos524 | 6.0 | TNA has some ups and downs, but mostly downs because a lot of questionable booking has done in the wrestling promotion over the past decade. TNA in 2002-2009 was a blast, TNA brought the likes of AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Bobby Roode, Eric Young, etc. The way they used the legends in that era is great and very helpful to put over the next breed of talents then. One of the most exciting things TNA has done is the X-Division, in which broke barriers on bringing the exciting element of indy wrestling to television. Every X-Division match is amazing and somewhat refreshing to the eyes of pro-wrestling fans back then. Upon the era of Dixie Carter and Hulk Hogan in 2010, it somehow turned into WCW 2000. The bookings are very dirty, legends putting themselves over and crappy matches. North American wrestling has suffered its dark days in early 2010's and neither TNA nor WWE was bearable to watch. This is the reason why fans stopped watching pro-wrestling until AEW came to rise in 2019, bringing lapsed fans back. TNA had some worst moments, and these moments are the only things that TNA is memorable of. Like the drugged Jeff Hardy incident in Victory Road 2011, Sharmell vs Jenna Morasca, and the worst part is when TNA trying to compete the WWE on Monday nights, in which is embarrassing. Good to see TNA has somehow improved in terms of wrestling quality in late 2010's. Nowadays, TNA is lowkey decent, unfortunately getting overshadowed by two wrestling giants in North America. |
| 61 | 19.04.2024 | NathanMac | 6.0 | At the end of 2023 I was hyped for this brand, when they announced the rebranding I was cautiously optimistic. However since the rebrand it has been just mediocre for me nothing has really changed and if anything it has got slightly worse. |

| 65 | 10.04.2024 | TripleCrown | 5.0 | Man, how the mighty have fallen. Once considered a rival to WWE, now are considered a big "what if" story. Had Dixie Carter not brought in Hogan & Bischoff, I think TNA would've been the place for wrestling fans late 2000s and early-mid 2010s. It went downhill so bad that their absolute ace, somebody who everybody thought would be a TNA for life guy, ended up leaving (AJ Styles.) You know you've messed up when AJ Styles has had enough and leaves. It's a damn shame because TNA was so good, like any promotion it had a fair share of ups and downs, but they really did professional wrestling right for a short period of time. It was a breath of fresh air, the six sided ring and the overall production was just so drastically different to WWE that it really made you want to tune in and see what would happen. They did a lot of good things like having the NJPW guys come over, and the incredible X-Division at the time, it was just going in the right place and then Hogan & Bischoff waltzed in and killed it. They can try and rebrand the company time and time again but it just isn't going to work, TNA unfortunately failed and is a shell of its former self. |

What was great was their innovative style mixing strong style and high flying moves with great TV production, they had great teams, the X Division, innovative gimmick matches like the Ultimate X, the King of the mountain match, hardcore matches, and at one point they introduced the women's division which for the American wrestling standards at that time, has been innovative too, they even introduced the women tag team's titles.Jeff Jarrett is the founder, their best products over the years have been AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Abyss, Awesome Kong, Daniels, Gail Kim, Monty Brown, Hernandez, James Storm, Bobby Roode, Chris Sabin, Alex Shelley, Low Ki, Austin Aries, Petey Williams, Kazarian, Sonjay Dutt and their best acquisitions over the years have been Sting, Jeff Hardy, Jerry Lynn, Kurt Angle, Christian, Team 3d, Scott Levy, Sabu , Rhyno, Scott Steiner, Elix Skipper, Kevin Nash, Booker T, Mick Foley (he should have been in there as manager for other years) RVD(It would have been awesome if he would have been hired even before 2010, like in 2006 2007), Shane Douglas (very good as interviewer), Tomko, Flair.Thanks to Jeff Jarrett, Dixie Carter, Vince Russo, Dutch Mantell, Jim Cornette, Scott D'Amore, Rhodes, Jeremy Borash, Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan.In 2017 they had a good momentum again with the GFW, they had deals with other promotions.Other great acquisitions over the years Lashley, The Wolves, Matt Sydal, Moose.At one point they had a title based on points |

| 72 | 10.03.2024 | Zak22 | 7.0 | I was a TNA mark growing up, between 2011-2014, TNA was my weekly dose of Wrestling, but it's also TNA that turned me off wrestling for almost a decade because, boy it got ugly after they left Spike TV. I have fond memories of attending two TNA TV tapings in London and seeing my wrestling crush Velvet Sky win the knockouts title. I loved Aces and Eights. I loved Bully Ray. I loved Aries and Roode. But looking back, it wasn't actually that good, I was just a 10-12 year old kid. Look, early, pre-Hogan TNA was inconsistent but delivered some absolute gold, like AJ-Daniels-Joe at Unbreakable 2005 or Perc Angle but as I said it was never consistent. After 2014 I've never kept up with TNA much but was glad to see they survived and have some good talent on the roster. The biggest disappointment with TNA is that they didn't learn any of the lessons of WCW, they repeated the stupid gimmick matches, they bought in Russo and Bischoff, and they had so many screwy finishes. But I credit TNA for giving us the X divison and the Knockouts. |

| 74 | 05.03.2024 | sarahlicity | 6.0 | Oh, TNA, what can one say about you? If one were to look up "identity crisis" in the dictionary, then the promotion out of Nashville will appear as an example. For the past twenty years, it's never quite known what it wants to be: does it want to be WWE or be an alternative? And what it should have done is be the alternative. The strong points of its existence, such as the mid-2000s and the late-2010s, were when it was doing just that, providing people a more grounded take on pro wrestling than WWE's glitz and glamour. It provided a home for people who Vince McMahon just couldn't use right; people like Sting and Christian Cage lit the house on fire, it was the place that made AJ Styles look an absolute star, and it proved that Kurt Angle wasn't just a one-trick pony. And even as soon as the early 2020s, it truly had one of the best women's divisions in the West; Slamovich, James, Grace, Purrazzo and Trinity are a strong core to build a division around, even if two of them have left for different pastures. But we have to talk about the downsides too. The early 2010s were truly a nadir for TNA, with Hogan and company tanking the glory days by trying, and failing, to fight the Monday Night Wars again, and the less said about the 2013-15 "we have WWE at home" era, the better. Matt Hardy really does deserve his flowers for dragging a dying almost-corpse of a promotion back into relevance enough to get proverbial medical attention, because the industry would be for the worse without TNA. |

| 80 | 20.02.2024 | fourlegclover | | Started watching them in 2008 but it's been on and off for a few years now. I don't really know why but I continue to have a soft spot for this company. I was a straight up a mark for them during what's considered one of their worst periods - the Hogan and Bischoff era. Of course, I can look back and see how bad a time that was from the onscreen product and definitely the backstage crap that was going on. Defended them way more than I should've. They're a solid promotion who has had better days. Hope they will improve and become a viable option for many wrestlers because they're currently in a position where it feels like a "this is where wrestlers go when they have no other big options" type of promotion. |

| 91 | 10.01.2024 | GriffinX | 6.0 | This actually kind of hard for me to write. Because for so long TNA was my personal favorite company and I defended it long and hard. But now as I look back at the long history and see over and over and over again they have put on a unappealing producing missing out on chance after chance. Yes they have lasted 20 plus years but they sure as hell haven't thrived. |
| 92 | 07.01.2024 | MooGati | 9.0 | Call me nostalgic, but Impact really seems to be having fun with their twenty year anniversary, and I love that they're fooling around with the good and the bad. Beyond that, every performer has a character, purpose, or TV time, something I can't say about the bloated rosters of WWE, AEW, and NJPW. Talent is exploding in every promotion, for sure, but Impact really seems the best at maximizing everyone's potential (with one point off for the awful ECW memorial acts like Dreamer, Bully Ray, and Rhino). |

| 95 | 24.12.2023 | Stanislav | 10.0 | One of the best promotions in wrestling. The best alternative to WWE and AEW. The roster is not crowded, and everything is in its place. Even despite financial problems, they make a quality product. |

| 100 | 12.12.2023 | Jambo | 6.0 | I think Impact does a solid job with their weekly TV. They offer good wrestling and have the second best womens division behind WWE. But the problem I see is that it's neither must-see TV nor do they feel unique in any way. Say what you will about the six sided Ring, but that needs to return. Just rebranding Impact to TNA won't help much. No disrespect to some of the oldtimers, but seeing some of them in 2023 doesn't feel right. |
