Ruthless-RKO
F*ck Friends, Rather die wiv ma AK!
Okay, TNA have been around for 8 years now and they have created some amazing matches, and also lets me honest some dull matches. What I want to know is what you think is their greatest invention.
Fans Revenge Lumberjack match - Not the best match created by TNA, fans are equipped with straps and can take their anger out on the wrestlers.
Elevation X match - This is just like a scaffold match, two scaffolds above the ring forming an X and the way to win is throw your opponent off.
3 Degrees of Pain match - Just like three stages of hell, or as wwe call it, two out of three falls. All three falls must be contested with a different match stipulation.
Feast or Fired match - A basic pole match, however the 4 briefcases consist of contracts, the contracts include World title shot, Tag title shot, X division title shot and the other one tells you your fired. The match usually has up to 8 participants and the way to win is to grab the case and leave the ring with both feet touching the floor.
Six Sides of Steel match - This is just a standard steel cage match, but because of the 6-sided ring, TNA built this match to be more brutal. Now it is just a 4-sided cage like normal.
Lethal Lockdown - This is a war games match. Contested in a steel cage annually at Lockdown ppv, sometimes been used on iMPACT. Lethal Lockdown consists of a single ring enclosed by a steel cage with two teams facing off with each other. The staggered entry system is identical, but weapons are permitted and are even provided. When all competitors have entered the ring, a roof is lowered onto the top of the cage, with various weapons hanging from it. Victory can be attained by pinfall or submission.
Xscape match - This match is also held annually at Lockdown. This variation of the Lockdown Match has 4-6 competitors and is a two stage process. The first stage is a standard pin/submission elimination contest, with eliminated wrestlers leaving the cage through the door until there are only two wrestlers left. The last two competitors then face off; the only way to win at this stage is to climb out of the cage all the way to the floor. On some occasions all competitors are in at once trying to get win by escaping the cage.
King of the Mountain match - Also described as a reverse ladder match, instead of retrieving an object hanging above the ring, the winner is the first person to use a ladder to hang a championship belt above the ringafter having scored a pinfall or submission (pinfalls count anywhere) to earn the right to try. A wrestler who has been pinned or forced to submit must spend two minutes in a penalty box. Held annually at Slammiversary.
Barbed Wire Massacre - .TNAs version of No rope barbed wire death match. Regular ring ropes are removed from the ring in this match, and barbed wire is strung up in their place. The first match of this kind was between Sabu and Abyss at TNA Turning Point 2005. It was voted Match of the Year by TNA fans on tnawrestling.com. The second Barbed Wire Massacre Match occurred at TNA's Against All Odds 2008 PPV with Abyss defeating Judas Mesias.
Hard 10 match - This is a tournament match, also known as Dup Cup, created by TNA. It is contested on a points system, where the points are earned for the use of weapons. The first person to earn ten pointsand be up by at least two pointswins. Regular strikes with a weapon are worth one point, while putting an opponent through a table is worth five.
Ultimate X match - The Ultimate X match is a type of professional wrestling match created by Total Non-stop Action Wrestling (TNA), mainly used in their X Division. It is considered the "signature match of the X Division." Ultimate X is usually contested by three wrestlers of the X Division. Two cables, connected to metal structures rising from the four corners of the ring, cross 15 feet above the middle of the ring. Similar to a ladder match, an object (usually a championship belt or a large red "X") is suspended from where the cables cross. The winner is the first person to take possession of the hung object.
Monsters Ball match - The key premise of the match was that all contenders are sequestered alone in a locked room without light, food or water for twenty-four hours before the match. This stipulation is intended to induce extreme feelings of aggression in the competitors. Once released, the wrestlers fight one another in a no disqualification match, with the usage of weapons encouraged. Victory can be achieved by pinfall or submission, with the match ending as soon as one wrestler is pinned or submits (there is no elimination format). The locked away stipulation was simply forgotten about, however, and not mentioned since the 6th one. It is now simply a Street Fight, as the match has to end inside the Ring.
I think I have covered them all, but if you feel I have missed some, please note.
For me it would have to be.. Ultimate X match, thats just got to be the best, no ladders allowed, you have to climb the ropes to retrieve the X or title, unless you try what Team 3D did, having one of them on the others shoulders lol..X division wrestlers have made this match arguably the best on TNA ever. Always look forward to this match, always high spots, high-flyers flying everywhere, its just non-stop action and entertainment.
Now there are some that I think are utter-bullshit, e.g. Monster ball match, seriously expect us to believe the wrestlers are going to spend a night without light, food and water, come on!!
Another would have to be Hard 10, wtf what kind of match is this, its not a game show is it?
The Lethal Lockdown is a good match with some brutal spots, the king of the mountain is good, but it can get confusing, I mean just read the description. The rest I think are pretty decent.
There you go, my opinion on TNA greatest invention would be Ultimate X
