Top 5 TNA Moments

TNA has been doing more harm than good in a lot of people eyes recently, so I just wanted to remind myself and anyone who feels TNA still has a chance or anyone who is a TNA fan how good it has been at times.
Now these moments may not of changed TNA for the good or the bad, these moments may not be remembered by many but to me they are great moments for the company.

Hogan is TNA

Number 5 makes it to the list simply because of the significance of the main man involved.  Almost 4 years ago the Immortal Hulk Hogan went and joined TNA, I never heard or read anything about this happening until it actually was announced on October 27th 2009. 
Hogan carrying considerably more good stock back then, going to TNA was either a well grabbed signature in the Impact Zones filing cabinet or desperation from a "money and spotlight grabbing" aging Hulkster.
Either way when I heard about this I was amazed, shocked and had to watch the January 4th 2010 episode of Impact to see Hollywood turn up in the number 2 promotion. In my eyes if anything can get you to watch TNA it's got to be a good thing!

TNA. Try Harder or Stop Trying So Hard.



You know about TNA. It's that wrestling show you hate.
That statement is true for many, however some of us...(well me at least) just want TNA to strive to thrive and move upward and onward. Why? 
Well firstly and probably most importantly, I don't wanna see dozens if not hundreds of people lose their jobs. We need to remember that there are real people behind the facepaint, masks and baby oil and not to mention all the office jobs involved with running a partially global wrestling promotion.
On top of that REAL stuff I would love TNA to become a true number 2 company and give fans more reason to celebrate them rather than constantly bash them. You see for many, especially UK wrestling fans, TNA is actually easier to watch than WWE.
Most digital TV subscriptions in the UK come with Challenge TV as a standard, where as WWE's UK home is on Sky Sports and costs in the region of £20-£30 to add to your subscription. So in the UK TNA should really have more support, but it's hard to support something when everybody is knocking it from left to right.
