Who Would Go Into a TNA Hall of Fame
 
Apparently Dixie has teased the idea of TNA having it's own HOF. Let's assume that WWE requires wrestlers to be exclusive to it's Hall only similar to how they restrict them with the Legends Contracts they sign relating to name, image and likeness.

Who would that allow TNA to add? Who would be actually worthy or have kissed Jarrett/Dixie's ass enough to get in when their career is done?

So far, I've got Dixie herself

Jarrett

Sting (If he doesn't go WWE)

Gail Kim (she started the Knockouts division and has pretty much been misused by the WWE)

AJ Styles

Abyss

Samoa Joe

Any more?

whiteyford 02-09-2011 05:48 AM

Ken Shamrock, sure he was the 1st NWA-TNA champion.

Rammsteinmad 02-09-2011 06:34 AM

I'd like to think Chris Daniels, but I have no idea how long he was actually in TNA.

TNA isn't really old enough yet to have a HOF. Besides a few exceptions such as Jarrett, Sting and Shamrock, most of these guys were unknown until appearing in TNA. People like AJ, Abyss and Daniels could all go in there if TNA makes it to the year 2020, but right now a lot of them have only really been getting mainstream exposure for about ten years, and it doesn't really qualify as a 'hall of fame career'.

But if this was legit and Dixie did make a HOF in the very near future, then I'd think the obvious two should be Jarrett and Shamrock. Anymore than that and half the roster will be in the hall by the end of next year.

Jerry Lynn
Sting
Jeff Jarrett
A.J. Styles
Mike Tenay
Don West

only ones that I see applicable

I think it is a little early for a company less than a decade old to be establishing a Hall of Fame.

.

he still wrestles for them ok it is under a mask which is cool he can still work for roh. i would say raven too.

SlickyTrickyDamon 02-09-2011 08:27 AM

What are you talking about? He's not Curry Man anymore. He was let go by TNA in 2009 after they didn't like his title feud with AJ and changed his name to Daniels.

Hogan
Hall

Out of all seriousness, I think TNA needs to last 10 more years before they think about inducting anyone in a hall of fame. Raise up their own legends who stick around.

El Fangel 02-09-2011 09:45 AM

Christopher Daniels?

tjmidnight420 02-09-2011 09:53 AM

WWE hall of famers.

Maybe TNA should make some stars before they open a hall of fame.

SlickyTrickyDamon 02-09-2011 10:40 AM

The fans of the impact zone who have gone for 8 years and never paid a dime.

JimmyMess 02-09-2011 11:03 AM

Yeah I totally think that this is a terrible idea.

Before you focus on who deserves to be in ANY hall of fame, make sure you are running a successful company.

Barely scraping by doesn't equate to honoring former stars.

Baby Steps, Baby Steps.

Biggz 02-09-2011 11:15 AM

There are a few names that come to mind that have been TNA since it first started, but they aren't really worth mentioning because a TNA HOF is a terrible idea at the moment. The company hasn't even been around a full decade yet, and even so in the beginning they had the NWA backing them. If they are serious they need to wait another 5-10 years before making their own HOF.

Surprised Angle hasn't been mentioned.

whiteyford 02-09-2011 11:52 AM

If they actually go ahead with it i can see it being like the WCW hof where they induct guys from previous generations, like WWE did with Gorgeous George etc., to try and give it some credability. And obviously Hogan will get in maybe Jerry Jarrett too.

TNA does not deserve a Hall Of Fame. It has not contributed any thing meaningful to the wrestling world as of yet.

BizarroKing 02-09-2011 05:59 PM

I think that a hall of fame is a silly idea for TNA, at least at the time being...

Now a Hall of SHAME...well...

IF they did do a Hall of Fame...It sure as hell better include Cheex.

Xero 02-09-2011 06:27 PM

I bet Russo will be in the first class.

Xero 02-09-2011 06:28 PM

I can almost guarantee they'll start putting in random WWE and WCW guys who have never worked for them.

SlickyTrickyDamon 02-09-2011 06:33 PM

Mike O'Malley cause he rocked that arena years ago and it's still awesome because of him and only him.

DO YOU HAVE IT?!!!!!!

Xero 02-09-2011 06:34 PM

TNA needs a wrestler called Stug.

That's "Guts" backwards.

RiX1024 02-09-2011 07:56 PM

AJ hands down, obviously Jeff Jarrett, Mike Tenay, Abyss, Beer Money, MCMG, Maybe Sting, Maybe Kurt Angle.
