The fact that anyone has to go bankrupt for health care is mad
Will never understand Americans
It's not AMERICANS it's the American Healthcare System, we are Screwed without Overpriced Insurance @@28hipster
That's the American health care system for ya. If someone says they can't afford to get sick, it literally means that.
@@28hipster can confirm nothing makes sense here
It generally works in my country too, to the extent that there is a saying that, you can die, but not fall sick! @@Alreezy
It's the year 3127, the earth is a wasteland, mutant cockroaches have taken over and STILL TNA have somehow NOT gone out of buisness.
Neither has AEW. And they've still had the same shitty booking all that time...
@@FrogtheSamurai_007I'm surprised his daddy's money is helping him despite losing viewers 😂 but still though your not wrong
Dishonorable mention to the whole Tessa Blanchard saga where she got the TNA World Title after being exposed as a racist/bully, then she held the belt hostage and wound up getting fired.
That should've been no.1
@@unholyperiodza5442hell yea
Are you black???
She tarnished the name her father made famous. Now you can’t bring up Blanchard without thinking about tessa instead of Tully
wow now I like her more
I think this list left out the most important controversy; TNA's treatment of Daffney, who sued after career ending brain injuries resulting from a dangerous spot on a PPV she was convinced to due by management at the time. Sadly, these injuries are what lead to her death. RIP Shannon Spruill.
If I remember correctly so was also in WCW. Can't remember what she went bi
Dude stop lying. Her injury in TNA was not why she dead. Committed suicide . Don't blame TNA for that.
SIMP!
@extremedee7320 the timeline is: fought an untrained lady who was supposedly trained by Bully Ray, Bully shouted at her for her getting injured, injury was career ending, TNA wiped their hands off Daffney.
Yes, you can blame TNA for the way her mental state ended up in.
@@vcom741 that's bs. Stop it dude.
The problem with TNA is that so many people have come and gone, Creative team wise it's hard to blame any one person because they've come and gone
Even talent wise, who can we consider TNA lifers at this point? Abyss and Rosemary, I think?
@@wanderlustwarrior Maybe Chris Sabin?
@@monarched I'm trying to think about what wrestlers are at the heart of what TNA seems to be. I'm not a long term fan of the promotion, so I could easily be wrong. Like, I wouldn't say Gail Kim and Awesome Kong have "come and gone," even though it's objectively true, as they still feel like TNA to me. They and the ones we mentioned just feel like the closest to a rock of stability when you think of TNA/Impact, if you don't count Scott D'Amore or other non-wrestlers.
Granted, I say this as an outsider looking in: For a while it seemed like the anchor wrestlers could've been AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Jay Lethal, or EC3, but they've all gone, and at least the former 3 have actively chosen not to come back.
@@wanderlustwarrior Abyss is working in WWE now though under his real name of Joseph Park as a producer.
@@wanderlustwarrior Valid points
Two notes:
Sting came off as a complete professional next to the troubled Hardy.
The footnote to the Angle/Jarrett love triangle is that it also marked the final televised match of Chyna's in-ring career. Sadly, it looked like the ring rust was never knocked off of her, being her sloppiest match that I have ever seen.
facts💯 from that moment she should have left for wwe in 2011 but he kept signing with them till 2013😭
@@vampirascoffin870 Sadly, in her lifetime, it wasn't gonna happen. Her death is what lifted her stigma in the company.
And Jeff is still allowed to be a fuck up
Man gets constant chances.
@@parsath_2584 very different situation, by all accounts, everyone loves Jeff and wants the best for him, politicking is what led to Chyna's situation
What gets me to this day. Nobody knew until Hardy came to the ring how messed up he was.
Dishonorable Mention:
How Dixie Carter because she chose to keep Vince Russo as a head writer, lost TNA's partnership with Spike TV.
The story of how Russo was still employed with TNA, and thus cost them the spike deal, got out is hilarious
@nicksoapdish157. That’s not what happened.
Russo left as head of creative in 2012, but stayed for one more year as a consultant.
Spike TV didn’t like that Russo was still consulting so they ended their relationship with TNA.
Knowing how sneaky Dixie can be.. she might have kept him as "consultant" but still making him do creative work @@NuMetalfan1996
The burns on Austin Aries were hilarious and when that little laugh happened after I lost it 😂
*A wild slapnuts appears*
10:28 *Fan:* That was BS.
*Sting:* I agree!
But why no Dixie Carter threatening to fire someone other than Russo if fans called for his termination? Whether a shoot or a work this was inexcusable.
I'll never understand why so many companies were willing to stick up for Russo so hard after what he did to WCW and the fact that it quickly became evident that even his "good" ideas weren't really his but were made good after far more competent people intensively rewrote them.
😂noppe you lie@@metsandjetsfan5174
I remember hearing the news with Austin Aries giving Zelina a promise ring 😂😂 I never knew it was those two.
I’m by no means a big dude, but I’m confident that I could punt the tiny man handing out promise rings.
Pissing off Awesome Kong is an interesting choice…
He wasn’t trying to piss her off
Steiner Math > Pipebomb
not true but i love the enthusiasm
The pipe bomb was a work and honestly wasn't that innovative or eye opening. Steiner math is pure wrestling fun in a nutshell
LMAO that CookieGate segment from TNA turning point 2004 always makes me laugh the visual of abyss carrying balloons is absolutely hilarious can't believe that happened 20-years ago I was just watching that PPV a few days ago that was a great show especially the main event six sides of steel match between AMW and triple X.
This is the reason I hope Chris Park turned up with balloons on his first day as a WWE agent
@@Jam3sALMAO well played 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Adam audibly cracking up whilst talking about Aries is the highlight
I’m so glad you guys are covering companies other than wwe and AEW lately lol
I would like to see top 10 best ECW Matches and maybe for a lol/challenge.....Top 10 Best WCW Matches in WCW Dying Year 2000?
Christi Hemme was in her PRIME in TNA 😍😍
I bet working with Pac-Man Jonas is what made Ron Killings decide to go back to WWE!
Having flashbacks to the OSW episode were they talk about Pac-Man Jones, might need to rewatch that episode now…
This video was surprising as I didn't know Taylor Swift was Kurt Angle's child. Never had that on my 2024 bingo card 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Aries had his career set with indie bookings for the rest of his life and he threw it all away to be an utter dickcheese on national Pay Per View. Hope the six total matches he had last year were worth it.
Repeatedly being a creep didn't help either. Not sure why anyone would still book him considering how unpopular he is these days and even talent-wise, guys like him are dime a dozen these days.
Picking a fight with Cornette on Twitter made things even worse.
@@outstretchedwings I mean, who hasn't picked a fight with Cornette at this point?
IIRC, he got really into militant veganism and anti-vax propaganda and started spouting that stuff online
@@outstretchedwings Why are you spamming this?
That Adam Jones thing irks me to this day. The dude is a literal criminal and a thug, he never should have been given air time
was hoping adam would mention the promise ring again. haha
I can smell victory road 2011 before even watching the video
11:13 Taylor Swift makes her Cultaholic debut!
That's her right? I'm not seeing things, right?
There’s SOOOO much more to the Raka Khan story. She’s basically clinically insane
The whole VKM thing was just such an embarassment. It was nothing but TNA going "acknowledge me!!" to the WWE and not in the Bloodline way, only for the WWE to not even dignify them with a "no" and TNA declaring that a moral victory, somehow.
The new tna is amazing right now. Matt hardy dolph ziggler and the young guys are killing it
How about the time one of the Harris twins wore a shirt that had a Nazi SS symbol on it during a match, and nobody noticed until after it had aired on PPV?
they have SS tattoos as well
Even everyone in locker room were pissed about it during the show and tried but failed to get any exec to pay attention
Good video and all, but I think Scott D'Amore's firing should've also been on list. There was a lot of outrage of fans and wrestlers when they heard the news.
It basically killed off any good will TNA had gotten back with the rebrand. Especially since Scott was so pivotal in bringing TNA back to its roots.
It’s still BS.
We had 2 good weeks of TNA, only for it to be taken away by the corporate overlords at Anthem
Victory Road 2011 was great until the Jeff Hardy incident. Angle/Jarrett storyline should of never happened
I disagree if all the performers with nothing but professional with each other and okay with it I don't see any issue doing this. And 100% agree about that PPV kinda sad thats what its remembered for
That's the funniest closing line to a Cultaholic video ever 😂
"Softly 'brothering' his wife" is gonna stick with me for awhile.
Joe shouldn't have taken that from Nash. He should have ended Nash's career.
I agree. Hall may have had his problems, but most if not all were his own doing. The likes of him and Nash would never succeed in modern wrestling.
@@cathallynch8269 I think Hall would make it in modern wrestling. I can't stand the majority of modern wrestling, so maybe not. Who knows.
I'm Patiently waiting to see cultaholic's version of the Angle/Jarrett Love Triangle, cause I know there's alot more to it
no 1: Scott steiner not wining the world title
Not that Steiner winning the TNA championship belt would be bad
Drunk Jeff Hardy vs Sting 🍻
Hardy wasn't drunk, he was wasted on muscle relaxants.
Perc angle was a wild boy I ain’t know he had jungle fever tho 😂
Dixie really did Jesse dirty
A Wild Slapnuts Appears
Tessa Blanchard going racist on Twitter should've been no.1
One of my all-time favorite boneheaded controversies by the company came when they aired a segment at a "club," with some background music. The background music in question? A video game rap by RUclipsr Mega Ran, which they'd used without permission.
I think it's safe to say that Ran got paid for that day.
Havent watched yet but Jesse Sorenson should be here
Understandable why these are controversial.
TNA wrestling is just starting to be good again I don't want any of these controversies to come back to this company ever again
Just proof that TNA can survive anything.
Literally everyone in TNA:
Kevin Nash slapped Joe around and made him cry
Marks:
They kissed and made up
good video
To quote another Adam on #04: "TNA had a big pile of money they wanted to set fire to."
the only reason I watch TNA back then was for Jeff Hardy and I never watched a single airing after he showed up high out of his mind like that.
6:15 I didn't get it 😅
If Morrison returns to TNA his name should be Johnny Action now that IMPACT is no more. That being said, Johnny Mundo is the best name.
Johnny Nonstop!
“Picking up the bucks like a dancer in a club!” That’s Mike Tenay making a parody reference to the club shooting involving Pac Man Jones at Bound For Glory 2007 during the Tag Title Match. I’m sure Tenay was told by Russo to say that shit, but seriously how f*cking despicable can you be?
6:17 WHAT?
No mention of Don Callis and his alleged, i repeat ALLEGED, actions towards Scarlett?
Considering the extent of nashes nagging injuries, he’d best be grateful Joe apologized instead of hit him back.
Joe is a straight professional. He's much better than I am, because I would have have fought back against Nash and never apologized.
@@nicksoapdish157 facts! Especially when all Joe did was tell the truth, might be uncomfortable to mention for some bc hall is no longer with us, but his problems caused him to be unprofessional.
The three things that will outlive us
-Cockroaches
-DarkSydePhil
-TNA
I think we're missing Bubba Sponges disgusting racism towards what happened in Haiti and towards Awesome Kong, especially when he challenged her to a fight
The Sting/Hardy situation could’ve been salvaged, if Bischoff would’ve came out to the ring, said Hardy was Attacked backstage and Sting has a new Opponent. Maybe AJ Styles.
Normally the Hogan burns annoy me but that was great
One thing that TNA did right. They didn’t always have bad guys versus good guys.
Bringing Hogan, Bischoff And All Of His WCW/NWO Buddies In TNA In 2010. That Was The Worst The All-Time Worst.
00:35: When you've got a Pay-Per-View called "Hard to Kill", you clearly wear your feelings on your sleeve.
Pacman Jones adopted and raised Chris Henry’s son after he died. Bengals legend and great dude.
Nothing in TNA is cannon to me. It’s like weird bad fan fiction. Aces and Eights was about all I liked. Jarret VS Angle parking lot brawl was pretty nuts. I think I liked it more than I thought. TNA ROCKED!
And that was the last time Jeff Hardy had issues with drugs.
Great video! You could do a part 2. I have an idea for a future video. Top 10 missteps by AEW!
nobody mentioned the Matt Hardy Lita edge love triangle either
Thank For the Top 10 Video And God blessed You 💐🌟🥇🏆😇🙏🏿🕊️✝️💟☮️🤍🌟🥇🏆
Crud...I felt so bad for Sorenson already...
Crazy how you can’t talk about tna history without bringing up victory road ‘11
That Kevin Nash and Samoa Joe story is not a FACT aj styles, Daniels and kaz said they never heard of that story and they don't believe anyone slapping Joe
"MAFFIA" 😂😂
Forgot how Joe used to be in way better shape despite his size
He was always an embarrassment
Jeff Hardy Victory Road 2011. That’s sad.
TNA firing people who they promise a job to after an injury? SMH. Thats 1 thing that even WWE hasn't done since like, the 90s. Look at Droz, got hurt in 99' and they took care of him and made sure he had income for life. Look at Scott Hall, he really left in 1996 as far as his main run goes, even though he came back for a few months in 02, but in an interview he said they'd paid over $100,000 in rehab fees for Scott over the years. yes you need to have the money to do this but, It's 1 thing they get right nowadays. And that will only get better without Vince, and with them making more money than ever.
FED BAD! whoops that was out of habit. TEENA BAD!
*0:32* I guess you could say TNA is... Hard To Kill😉
Maths>Pipebomb
Come to find out Rhaka Khan is crazy as hell.
Let's not forget shawn divari had the most racist theme song just plane crash
What about Joe getting kidnapped by Ninjas we still don't know who it was
Bubba Clem sucks....Manson's the talented one on his show
Hard to kill, isn't just a ppv
Only the hawk can talk about TNA or he’ll hit you with a brick.
11:13 what the hell?
Yea. So controversial 😂🙄
No Tessa Blanchard?
Back from what now?
You messed up Adam it should be
TNA is hard to kill
6:04 ...The ending of Aries vs. Morrison was a work you bellends
TNA Cross The Line 😂
TNA needs to bring back the cage girls.....I said what I said.
It's mahi-mahi gate
I BELIEVE IN JOE HENDRY!!
Wow Christie Hemme was beautiful
A wild Taylor Swift appears.
I check out of TNA when hogan was there and they ruined AJ styles
...and Jeff Jerrett bought, (and lost/made worse), TNA to get back at Dixie
Rhaka khan *Brian last voice*
