TNA is like that one kid in class that copies everyone to fit in
Still is
@@tiyeeryan copying who?
Right Nia Jax isn’t a knockoff version of Havok & WWE didn’t steel the broken gimmick with the Hardy’s & rename it the woken gimmick & they didn’t sign a bunch of Impact’s stars desperately trying to be like Impact & being greedy to try to get rid of competition because they can’t handle any company being better than them & they didn’t also bring in sting who’s a legend in Impact but claimed he’s a legend in wwe when he’s had very few matches there & they didn’t try to make Nikki Cross into a knockoff version of Daffney ok I’m Done because there’s too many to list of what wwe copied from Impact
Now AEW is doing it trying to be WWE
@@andrekefernandez3441 isn't half their roster wwe hasbeens?
Roman reigns signs to TNA
“Introducing our new star, the BIG HOUND , Reigns Roman !!!
K2Live Mid-carders on TNA have more talent than Roman
Lmfao you said the big hound 😂😂 I'm dead
Reyman Roams
They Should Call Him Ramen Rengs For Meme Potential
The name Roman Reigns was created by the WWE I think so they'll probably call him Brother Roman Cage
Lashley = TNA's Lesnar
WWEGalaxy2013v3 except more charismatic
I'd like to see lesnar vs lashley
Lashley > Lesnar
Except Lashley is not lazy and have charisma
Except more appearances than lesner .
I will never forget the x-division triple threat match between Christopher Daniels vs. AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe years ago.
A true match of the year.
So wait... AJ styles was raped in a storyline?
The Everchosen um......yes
Pretty much. First Daniels & Kaz were trying to prove AJ was successful bc he was sleeping with Dixie Carter, then that was teased to be true but the two being seen together out of work was only bc they were sponsors for a recovering addict and then that dragged on to where Daniels & Kaz tried to say AJ & Claire had a thing, which turned into her being a crazy chick that drugged AJ but ultimately it was all something that Daniels & Kaz paid her to do. That is pretty much the whole god awful angle minus a baby doll in an AJ Styles hood
Yup HAHAHAHA Was the funniest lamest shit ever. Remember when wwe try to copy this by having Daniel bryan have a supposed affair with his physical therapist? HAHAHAAH That same chick is in TNA now lol
dudee beard But that lasted only two weeks to build up Brie vs Stephanie
😂
I remember when TNA was legit, they even had a match of the year back in 2011 I think, it was AJ Styles vs. Kurt Angle.
Styles vs Angle would be the match of the year even if it took place in a backyard.
Both are arguably the best to ever do it.
+SHANKY48 I think that was his point though, at one point TNA did have a really good roster and put on several great matches throughout the year.
At one point TNA's roster included
Aj Styles
Samoa Joe
Kurt Angle
Sting
Bobby Roode
Austin Aries
TJ Perkins
Christopher Daniels
Jeff Hardy
Eric Young
You could just hold a raffle to pick out a top quality match with that kind of talent.
Dominik Nowaczyk i mean those are 2 of the best wrestlers of all time of course they gone have match of the year
Every time Dixie Carter tried to be a heel authority figure on television is probably the most obvious authority rip off from wwe.
Daniel Hanson THATS IN EVERY PROMOTION
WWE? Pretty sure WCW did it first...
Bischoff did it a year before Vince McMahon.
A Goalkeeper What a moron? Literally every wrestling company did that. The fact that you actually think WWE is the only company that can have a heel authority figure. Thats such an ignorant thing.
A Goalkeeper L
2006-2008 TNA was actually pretty good. I used to never miss an episode. I remember always picturing abyss vs undertaker
that nearly happened.
Simon = Whatculture
Your kind of right, he's the only reason I'm still subscribed
TimmyTakedownTV have you heard of plumpy?
Mish-al Fredericks we don’t talk about Mr.Aygirlgivemeyournudesimsortafamous guy anymore also he left
Simon is WhatCulture
Simon What?
Recreating the Montreal screw job with Kurt Angle should of been on here
that was lameeeee!!
YES! Right after Bret came back and they buried the hatchet BAM this happens on TNA.
And nothing even came of the TNA version, as Angle was there for 6 more years!
11. They tried to pay their wrestlers
Valentin2000258 but they can't
🤣🤣🤣👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Nice £
Valentin2000258 12.They have wrestlers
Valentin2000258 TNA has wrestlers?
Kurt angle spitting on hogan =Montreal screw job
Hector Carvajal Yes i was waiting for that lol
Simon forgot about when TNA had ECW alumni had their “perfect” ending
Oh god! TNA's ECW tributes were aweful!
Tommy Jackson That’s why I put the quotation marks on Perfect
@@Jerry_Freestyle yeah I know, haha! they were all past their prime. especially considering it was like 4 years since the last WWE ECW tribute.
The old times were the Best
HomeAutomationX in wwe tna or whatculture?
Arctic Jaguar all of them
SA 99
"Better than ECW"
Thats because ECW has been dead for the past 8 years
SA 99
Yet ECWs replacement (NXT)
is still doing better than TNA
HomeAutomationX is
What's a TNA?
Vince McMahon bullshit
you don't remember test n albert
Tiniest Nipple Absolutely
I think it s a venereal disease
Vince McMahon
Trash Not Awesome
8 Times Defiant tried to be WWE
8 times is too little
I haven’t really seen it so how exactly?
Jnw boss only thing I can think is the Adam and Adam thing
8 times defiant tried to be TNA while TNA tried to be WWE
NICE ONE lol. and ALSO COMPLETELY TRUE
Their ECW reunion stable, which also included the HardCore Justice ppv (much like One Night Stand).
You guys forgot the time TNA tried doing the Montreal screw job with Kurt and Hogan that was hilarious
That doesn't really count though as it was intended as a parody.
No it isn't the same thing there is a distinct difference between ripping off an idea and trying to present it as your own idea, and doing something that is intended as a mock up of some other well known work.
no of course not, but there hasn't been an original idea in any art form for years.
The latest blockbuster film won't contain anything that plot wise hasn't been done a hundred times before but doesn't make it a rip off.
But a parody is a different type of non original idea, as it is intentionally, and presented as a take on a previous work.
If you can't see the difference between having a similar gimmick story line and outright intentionally copying a storyline plot for plot then you are an idiot.
At no point am I defending TNA. I'm just pointing out that the screw job reinacting clearly wasn't a rip off, but a parody there is a difference. I'm not saying TNA hasn't ripped off WWE storylines.
This was not a parody they actually took the storyline seriously and when they copied the event it wasn't like they hilariously exaggerated it was almost exactly the same
Well WWE ripped off the Claire Lynch angle with that godawful Daniel Bryan affair with Chelsea Green angle....
Optimus that lasted like 2 weeks and only existed to further the Brie Stephanie feud. The one in Impact I remember lasting at least a month with segments having to involve Daniels, kazarian, the woman, styles, Dixie, and a fucking baby doll lol
0k that was worse ahaha
That baby doll was hilarious
Nope. WWE still did it first with Edge cheating on Vickie with Alicia Fox
So WWE ripped itself off?
So it's a rip off of a rip off of a rip off
Say that three times fast haha
no as it was their idea so they can't rip themselves off, that's just stupid
This brings back a lot of nostalgia. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad yet.
How about the time when Hogan tried to have TNA face off against WWE on monday night
that escalated quickly
That was trying to be WCW.
Nick Hebb that wasnt hogans doing look it up. that was dixie and spike tvs call
It failed quickly
I think you mean, TNA *TRIED* to start a second Monday Night Wars. Now look where they are. AEW and ROH, hell maybe even AJPW, would have a way better chance than TNA and WCW.
He named it Janice not Janeese
Me? I don't have an erection. 1 He mispronounces so many things he should just run witg it and go Broken. Or Woken. One of the two. Or become Megamind!
Me? I don't have an erection. 1 shows how much wrestling he watches. He’s just whatcultures big sweaty man lol
its the accent talking
I have never seen a British person pronounce it that way
Let's be honest in about 2005-2009 tna was the best wrestling company in the world. Unbelievable matches great stables and amazing storylines. Man I miss it
Paul ryan jeff hardy heel run you forgot
Paul ryan 2005-2013 until AJ Styles era!!!!!
Who remembers TNA Video game, the story mode was legit as fuck haha
Dominik Nowaczyk playing as Suicide in army bases hahahahaha g times
Why didn't the company grow from all of this?
Final Deletion airs, shortly thereafter New Day and Wyatt Family have their version. It goes both ways.
Alexander Asher Uh.. more often than not from one side.
You forgot the Montreal Screwjob. This was back when Hogan ran the company and aired TNA at the same time as Monday Night Raw to try and compete with WWE. The first Monday night of TNA, they copied the Montreal Screwjob with Kurt Angle. Hulk Hogan came out, and Kurt spits at Hogan's face. They even showed Earl Hebner running out of the arena. I literally went "Seriously?! SERIOUSLY?!!"
The moment I started watching TNA I saw them stealing gimmicks. You pointed out the Eric Young character. I also remember James Storm being a copy of bray. Lashley copying Lesnar. EC3 copying Seth Rollins. SuicIde being Sin Cara. I gave a pass to Sharkboy as it seemed like a tribute to Austin and not a rip off.
And that's the fishing line, cuz Sharkboy said so!!
As much as I despise TNA, you could easily do a reverse of this with the amount of storylines WWE have taken from TNA.
GameElite facts
Lol
Final Deletion vs Wyatt Compound, AJ Styles Clair Lynch storyline vs Daniel Bryan AJ Lee storyline.
I think they did make that list
I would like to see that list too. If it’s already been done then I’d like to see another list as well
I actually liked that Eric Young was champion and enjoyed his reign. After he went heel and became better
WCPW also tried way too hard to be like WWE.
Dom Fabio How so?
Oscar The Grouch Kurt Angle vs Cody....
just wondering how does that work since its just two guys who worked for wwe or for kurt works there, I don't know if angle even faced cody in wwe at all but right now most promotions will be like wwe as wwe is the biggest one....for now
They copied mitb (magnificent seven briefcase), the rumble (with a variation), taking any former wwe wrestler (el patron, Kurt angle, rey mysterio, Cody Rhodes, aaron stone, stu bennett, broken Matt hardy, bully ray dudley, drew Galloway), an attempt at an invasion angle, the cash in with the magnificent seven briefcase in the middle of a match. Probably more as well. I'm not slating defiant wrestling but the similarities are noticeable. Although defiant has more opportunities to showcase their shared talent
wcpw does nothing but pander to wwe like there aren't any other promotions out there.
Wwe: ok you can copy but don’t make it to obvious
TNA: ok got it
How about the Orlando screwjob with Angle and Styles the only thing Kurt forgot to do is write WWE in the air 😂😂😂😂
The whole eric young being the underdog eventually winning the world title was amazing. When he pulled out the piledriver out of nowhere was so unexpected to pin magnus and win when i dont think anyone thought eric would win :)
Actually in my eyes TNA is a mini version of WWE
That Screwjob spot TNA pulled in 2010 was so fucking tasteless. Mauro Ranallo actually tore TNA a new one when that happened.
SonicHeroXD what screwjob
SonicHeroXD a
Hogan screwing over Kurt Angle,the even used the same referee
Despite all of this I really liked the feast or fired match, one dude getting fired and 3 others guys getting a title shot at a specific title is a great idea and gave way to interesting angles like when James storm waited nearly an entire year and didn’t carry the brief case around with him so it was even more of a surprise and blind side when he “cashed” it in during his awesome heel run and used (abyss I think) as his partner and took the tag titles from the American wolves (one of the best tag teams to ever come out of ROH) it was an amazing angle and just one of the amazing things that came out of that match
You forgot back in 2018 when Braun Strowman destroyed every raw superstar backstage, and shortly after that Brian Cage did the same thing on the back stage during Impact Wrestling on Thursdays night...
Just to add to that last fact: TNA followed EY winning the belt, with a hardcore match with Abyss. Daniel Bryan won the belt, and fought Kane. Knock off Daniel Bryan vs Knock off Kane in a Knock Off Extreme Rules match on free tv
Let's not forget the time they tried to make an Undertaker in Judas Messina.
There was Sin Caras debut, literally right after that tna had a lucha libre masked wrestler named Rubix
Also for the Eric Young/ Daniel Bryan similarities both were tag with monsters and were tag champs before becoming world champ
WWE trying to be TNA ala House of Horrors and Final Deletion. 😂
Dustin Pegalee why would wwe try to be tna when they are superior lol
Lawrence Chavious yeah. True
house of horrors was similar to final deletion but I think the Wyatt compound with the new day was the copy
Thomas Zulli that’s how I saw it. Lol
Dustin Pegalee house of horrors was awesome I want more camp with my wrestling damn it
The OVW and the music guy 'points' are laughable.
saykuku2 how
saykuku2 this vid was crap
saykuku2 Those are a bit of a stretch indeed
justin whitlow TNA is crap.
lol Vinnie Ru in the pic of the old TNA originals hanging out at the ring
Simon's the only WC personality I like hearing narrate a new WC vid since Blampied left.
By existing, they tried to be WWE.
Aaron AJ Knight .......what?
"Know any other times TNA tried to be WWE?"
Uh ... the entire history of the company basically.
Bay at the Moon Productions ??? You do know if wwe did it , another company did it first .
Times TNA tried to be WWE and it doesn’t include when they aired on Monday nights with Hogan, Flair, and Jeff Hardy debuting?
That didn't really happen, did it? I was watching Bret Hart hug Shawn Michaels on RAW.
And now Eric Young is in WWE
& now he’s not
What about the debut of Hogan on TNA being the same time as the first return of Bret Hart? Surely that’s number 1...
That's not really copying anything, is it? Plus I'm pretty sure Hogan's appearance was advertised for 4th January way in advance before Bret on Raw.
That moment where Dixie carter tried to copyright the beard 😂😂😂
There's that time Jeff Hardy challenged Abyss to a "Full Metal Mayhem" match where they could use Tables, Ladders, and Chairs.... There was also that whole Black Machismo gimmick.
simons back in it again with his back carrying this channel
“It’s clear Styles hated this angle”
Styles, Kaz, and Daniels came up with it lol
Smh
Man I can't believe that impact is still going I gave them up to 2015 pushing 2016 but it's already 2018 and they are still going.
Rogelio Torres it's getting better tune in again
Because it’ll never die because it’s too good for dying
@@packedentertainment2866 I believe their pay-per-view Hard To Kill was named for that very reason. They just won't die.
the sting return trailers were inspired by a return trailer from wcw. also i believe tna did that because sting almost went to wwe that year and rumors have it that he was supposed to fight taker that year but last minute resigned with tna
this inspired me to do Daniel Bryan versus Eric Young wwe2k19

Swear I’ve seen these video numerous times before ages ago?
Mloose17 yeah I know, I think they're taking old videos rerecording audio on them and releasing them as new
More TNA videos please!
I thought 2005-2008 they were doing cool stuff
Y'all forgot when TNA tried to recreate the Montreal Screwjob with Kurt Angle being Bret and Hulk Hogan being Vince.
what about when wwe tryna be tna next
Yep still waiting for it
i wonder if the next video will be 10 or 8 times wwe tried to be test n albert
That comment made absolutely no sense.
Test and Albert was shortened to T and A
I remember enjoying a lot of these as a kid
Any chance of doing a greatest moments video series. Like Great Hulk Hogan moments, or greatest Summer Slam moments, ect.
Your (c) for all the TNA stuff says "GWF" instead of "GFW"
0:10 phenomenal
Shark Boy thinking he was Stone Cold was fun, rumor has it the real Steve Austin loved the shark boy bit.
Whatever thread that TNA has been dangling by for the past 5 years has to be the strongest thread in existence
TNA was just a WWE bootleg company.
Doctor Awesomeness I understand saying that now but In their Prime? Like before Hogan showed up it was definitely a great alternative to the wwe.
Jnw boss with a few wwe rejects
Now its not tho
It started to be so under the bischoff-hogan era. It was just basically a very famous indie promotion before that.
In retrospect, wwe been in the game for years my man and TNA actually had this big multi-million dollar company quackin in there boots for a little while, like new Japan kinda does now
No failed attempt of a new Monday Night War? Ok... whatever...
KTEFilmsInc That could easily be its own video
You left out the best part about Abyss and his Kane impersonation. Remember when his "brother" showed up, and no I'm not talking about Joseph Park, I'm talking about Judias Mesias, his undead half-brother who also the son of Abyss's ex-manager James Mitchell.
Simon is saving WhatCulture.
Ok so even though that TNA has many times tried to copy WWE, I do wanna day that there are very many things that TNA does better then WWE. Lethal Lockdown is a way better version of either Hell In A Cell or a Steel Cage match. And they still have the Ultimate X match. Which is the most exciting match ever to watch.
Well Daid
Nick Larsen lethal lockdown is a rip off of nwa war games...ultimate x is original to TNA...but TNA still sucks
Nooooope
Nick Larsen also you only named 2 things...you said very many things so you should at least be able to give 8 more! I'll wait for your list
Feast or Fired is better than MITB IMO.
Montreal screwjob when I think it was kurt angle saying to hogan I’m going back to WWE and he even spitted on hogan
HYPER99Skillz *spat
Simon: Know of any other times TNA tried to be WWE?
Me: Oh boy, do I
Lol you missed when they did the Montreal screw Job with Kurt Angle and earl hebner.
How did you forget SharkBoy
TheSmithersy stone cold.....
Milton Woolley that gimmick was meant as loving tribute/parody.
That was the whole point of Sharkboy to mimic Stone Cold
They(TNA) should sign stone cold ET lmao
Shark boy was intended to be stone cold as a parody, only thing is in his later years he was more like the part
You guys forgot to mention how TNA used James Storm to be Bray Wyatt.
Trevone Gordon The Revolution
Um 😐 don’t you mean Shawn Michaels & just because he was leading a stable doesn’t mean that he was a copy of Bray Wyatt & wwe is not so innocent as many believe
Impact needs to start from scratch and keep the company in Nashville, TN and polish all wrestlers, angles, and storylines.
They are in Nashville.
Tna:that saying yep yep
Other tna staff member :No it's yes yes
Tna :ok let's do yay yay yay
WWE is the Best show for all types of fans except full hardcore
You missed the most obvious one when they remade the Montreal Screwjob with Kurt Angle and Hulk Hogan..
wwe has done that 1000 times so no.
Shaquille Hinds i mean first of all they didn't do it that many times and second of all that has nothing to do with it even if they did, it is a list of what TNA stole from WWE. They stole this identically from WWE.
You should do a 8 times WWE tried to be TNA list
I'm pretty sure during their feud Mick Foley called Abyss a "knockoff Mankind"
Shark Boy's gimmick.
Rocker Rashimodo Parody does not equal copying
THIS THURSDAY ON IMPACT WRESTLING!! It the Barbed Wire Massacre 3!!! oVe & Sami Callihan vs LAX!! No Ropes Barbed Wire Match!!
Triple G for the first time in close to 10 Years this match is happening last one was at Against all Odds 2008. Abyss vs Judas Messiah.
Jay Harv28 watch Lucha Underground
Judas Mesias, not Judas Messiah
Jay Harv28 they got a sap button for english?
You forgot the best one, where TNA switched to Monday nights to compete with WWE. WWE announced the return of Bret Hart and TNA followed suit with the introduction of Hulk Hogan, for the SAME NIGHT LUL. To this day I think that was TNA's most watched ep. at 1.8M.
Actually Stampede Wrestling creates the ladder match with the brief case long before WWE or TNA. So now you know.
Dixie Carter being a bootleg Stephanie McMahon should've been on here.
Warren L she does a better job of it
Sif__ 6 No she didn't. Stephanie is so good. Dixie didn't even look believable. Dixie looks like a nice woman pretending. Stephanie seems really evil.
You can thank Dixie Carter for almost all this crap
Thank God she's gone.
Abyss in his prime, when TNA was still entertaining in their FSN days, was incredible.
During 2009-2015 TNA was fun with high flying x divisions
The Main Event Mafia was pretty much another ripoff of Evolution.
With better members then evolution lol
Thought that was fortune
@@brianwoehr9833 nope. You can't compare.
The time Impact moved to Monday night
And now the WWE is TNA after grabbing all TNA's talent
Oh look, Whatculture Wrestling still exists.
WWE does the same thing
Only a few times though. TNA did it way more.
Stone cold and shark boy Edit wow takes for the likes
Onyx CL jay lethal and randy savage
Onyx CL funny thing about this is according to all accounts Steve Austin tuned in to watch that being generally entertained & amused to the point of calling a mutual friend of theirs & having them relay his support
Excuse you, Feast or Fired was a great concept
I'm surprised Shark Boy acting like Stone Cold wasn't on here.
