ric flair wrestling in TNA after his retirement match in WWE

Christian is the most Underrated underused talent of all time

I think Sting's career in TNA deserves to be an honorable mention.

TNA deserves respect, sure they are on hard times now, but their X Division pushed the limit, the Knockouts broke down barriers and they saw something in Christian, one of the most underrated wrestlers in the last 2 decades. Those are three things WWE always thought of as jokes.

1. Jeff Hardy was high af and Sting wanted to rip his head off.

TNA/Impact Wrestling always showed Gail Kim more respect than WWE did and even her inducted into their Hall Of Fame. The WWE had no clue about how to book her.

TNA will always have the good days of X-Division, Knockouts Division and Tag Team Division!! That's something WWE has never successfully replicated! AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels, Samoa Joe, Motor City Machine Guns, LAX, Beer Money, America's Most Wanted, Austin Aries, Gail Kim/Awesome Kong, The Beautiful People...etc Such great times!! Also, for whom it may concern, TNA has always had a more diverse main event scene than WWE!

Wow, I thought for sure Ric Flair's entire run with the company would be #1 for sure

WWE will never build Broken Matt Hardy as great as TNA did

R-Truth as a heavyweight champion. Sting choosing TNA over WWE

Wait wait wait, Abyss wasn't Kane, he was Kane and Mankind.

THE KNOCKOUTS DIVISION IS THE TRUE WOMEN'S REVOLUTION!!! ALWAYS WILL BE.

Gail Kim is the Trish stratus of tna

Knock TNA all you want but their Knockouts division was great way before WWE let the divas be superstars

Finally TNA is getting its recognition. Like Macho Man always said the cream always rises to the top!

tbh, Kurt Angle's first WWE run was great in terms of wrestling, hardly anyone can match his in-ring ability which is why when he faced Shawn Michaels it was such a great match cause Shawn is another great in-ring performer, but when Kurt went to TNA, not only did his wrestling skills improve, but his character & mic skills evolved as well. When Kurt was in the Main Event Mafia, that was one of the best heel works I've seen in a long time. Kurt's TNA run was way better than most people thought it would be & that's something WWE wants us to forget.

Kazarian called the TNA fans the TNA Galaxy one time to make fun of WWE. TNA has never called their fans a galaxy.

TNA has played host to Xavier Woods, Drake Maverick, Matt Sydal, the New Age Outlaws, Derrick Bateman, TJP, Samoa Joe, Kurt Angle, Scott Steiner, Kevin Nash, Austin Aries, Hulk Hogan, the Dudley Boyz, Hardys, AJ Styles, and many other past, present, and future superstars that WWE either passed over, overly-glorified, or simply didn't care about

That Kurt Angle and Sting are the only ones to be in the WWE and TNA Hall of Fame

Man this video made me remember how GOOD TNA used to be, it was actually a legit contender to WWE, and somtimes I preferred it. But than I remember, oh yeah, Vince Russo and Dixie Carter drove this company into the ground... Also, think on this for a second: ECW and WCW lost their TV deals and died. TNA lost not one but TWO TV deals, AND LIVED! They are literally cockroaches.

No mention of Bobby Lashley

Nice try wwe but I will never forget the flying Elvises, Jimmy Wang Yang till death

Thank you for putting TNA's womens division in your list. Not many of the womens matches in WWE are on par with what they did in TNA 10 years ago

The fact they used to get 2.1 ratings & WWE gets 2.5 now. If TNA didn’t fuck up there would’ve been another Monday Night War.

Tna was the first wrestling promotion I evered watched and can still find a way to entertain me. I can never forget tna no mattter how much the E will try.

Can you do a video of women who were better in tna than wwe 1. Gail Kim 2. Mickie James ( I always felt like she was an after thought in the wwe) 3. Terrell 4. Katie Lea aka winter 5. Victoria aka tara 6. Brooke tessmocker 7. Trinity 8. Angel Williams aka Angelina Love (never made it to the main roster) 8. Shantelle Taylor aka Taylor wilde (same as angelina love) 9. Christy Hemme (a lot of people shit on her but I've always felt like she had a lot of potential) 10. Kharma aka Awesome kong

Sting's entire TNA run.

Never watched much TNA before the last few months. Haven't seen every episode but every episode I've seen I have walked away very entertained. Pretty cool seeing some ROH faces that I haven't seen for a minute.

Gail Kim’s TNA career was her best run, WWE had no idea 💡 what to do with her. Her TNA run will always be remembered. WWE always copies other promotions.

Thank you for a rather positive spotlight on IMPACT.

I think Kurt Angle had better matches in TNA than WWE.

At least Impact Wrestling is getting back on track this year.

This is unrelated to the video topic, but I can't help but wonder; who is the woman in the blue shirt with the long braided ponytail & why WhatCulture uses her pics so much to display emotions? She appears in more WhatCulture videos than the voice actors do.

Everyone knows that Nia Jax is WWE’s “Awesome Kong”

There's only one thing WWE wants you to forget about TNA: TNA itself

Why does WWE still not mention TNA? They've name-dropped ROH & New Japan on the main roster with no problem, so I don't think it's because they're threatened by them anymore.

The X division was one of the best things I've ever seen

Number 1 : TNA exists

I´m always excited when a new "things that wwe wants you to forget" list comes out. You guys are literally the BEST

4:20 yo vince be crankin dat soulja boy

Remember when TNA did 1 to 2million on ratings aww good old days

Screw That remember when Kurt won all the titles and had The promotions world title too

Haven't started the video yet. I'm calling it right now: The last one will be TNA's existence

This was a great list. Nice work Simon

The aces and eights storyline was in my opinion the best storyline they have ever had

Only 10??

#11 Jeff Hardy

So glad I discovered Pluto TV. It has a 24-hour channel dedicated to TNA Wrestling for free. They show old PPV's, Best of's, British Boot Camp, as well as current Impact shows.

That super Miller shirt

yup. I love impact wrestling. love them even more than WWE sometimes. I know that makes an evil individual to the "wrestling" community but I've always wanted them to rival the WWE so we can get two or more amazing wrestling shows

Damn it. I wanna completely forget about Whatculture but these videos are good asf.

R-truth(Ron Killings) was in tna and was champion before Christian.Road Dog and Billy gunn was VKM in tna also.just to name a few

I miss long hair Roode... BEER MONEY!

I actually thought dean malenko as LHC was the most meaningful the title was.

2 of my favorite Kurt feuds were in TNA. His Jeff Jarrett feud was brill as well as his Samoa Joe feud.

Christian was so entertaining on TNA, I’ll admit he was one of the reasons I tuned in. But I think WWE gave him a world title run because of what they saw on TNA. Unfortunately they couldn’t keep it up.

R truth? Matt Morgan? Josh Mathews? Tazz? Jeff fucking Jarret? Common the list goes on

Christian was the reason i started watching TNA. and Abyss was not F*ing Kane!!! or Mankind for tht matter!!!! he was always his own character! just cos he had a mask didnt make him Kane or Mankind. RelliK had a mask did tht make him Kane as well? sorry this has been pissing me off since i started watching it with my Brother with him sayin the same thing (he also compared Beer Money Inc to the APA)

You forgot to mention that R-truth is a two time world champion in Impact.

Simon,WWE actually didn’t market Kurt’s return to the ring at TLC as his first match since he left WWE period,they marketed it as his first match in a WWE ring in 10 years. Just go watch the vignette for it from TLC ,the narrator flat out say it was his first match in a WWE ring in 10 years

Why would WWE want us to forget about something that's already forgotten

"EC3 could of being a top star" Seriously guys, you're writers, COULD HAVE 😂

I think the AJ flip you’re talking about is the Fosbury Flop. Tbh my fav move in wrestling

5:57 "could of been"? I'm so fucking TRIGGERED right now

James storm is an amazing wrestler

"Could of been..." Come on, WhatCulture!

5:57 "COULD OF" I can forgive a lot, WhatCulture, but that fucking blew

I'll never forget that steel cage match of Mickie James vs Tara (Victoria). When I saw it at that time I was like ”I wish WWE would do this type of match for their women's division”

WHAT ABOUT RAVEN?

WOAH WOAH WOAH, IT'S COULD HAVE NOT COULD OF

Another thing to remember with the Knockouts division is that they did plenty of firsts before the WWE women's revolution. They were main eventing shows a lot. Ladder matches, cage matches. They have their own annual all female ppv's and have been for the last few years. And they have been having royal rumble style matches since the division's inception. WWE women have it good right now but TNA Knockouts have been there and done it first.

I always thought Bully Ray was better than Bubba Ray. More expressive, more annoying, a much better look and in much better shape. Aces & Eights, though... 🤷‍♂️

Number 3: Could have. You’re welcome.

Bully Ray.

Since the new guys have taken over Impact, you have to admit it's been pretty good!

I miss the good old tna, never used to miss an episode. Whilst only reading up on what wwe did

1- That they ever existed to begin with.

This video could have been short. You could have just said "All of it except for the wrestlers they got from there."

The fact that before Hogan and Bischoff came in, the TNA product was arguably better than WWE's at the same time

Yesssssse Thank you for this some people pretend like TNA didn’t do anything for the professional Wrestling business. They did some much and continue to make history. TNA will never be forgotten.

Austin Aries

number one that NXT is a copycat of TNA and their X division.

Sting between WCW and WWE. Ron "the truth" killings, Conciquence Creed are a few that spring to mind.

"Ec3 may be back in NXT so everything worked out just fine" 😂😂I don't think so Simon

#ThankYouGailKim always

So many of the major players but you could only name 3?

Can't blame abyss on TNA he's always been that character saw him around IWA and WWC around 2003-05 and that's way before TNA

Other things for WWE to forgot, they actually book black wrestlers as potential main eventers. R-Truth being the first NWATNA champ twice and Bobby Lashley being a 3-time TNA champ

I feel like I've seen this video before!

Sorry, had to dislike because of "could of". I THOUGHT YOU WERE BETTER THAN THAT

I miss tna, I went to a house show in 2009 and it was so dope

The Knockouts division was probably the biggest reason I first started watching TNA.

The X division totally shits on WWE! 205 live right now honestly

Think biggest thing they'll want you to forget is they signed Hulk Hogan after he left for TNA!!!! :'D

you guys should rank all the elimination chamber matches because they've had 20 so works out for a list plus the pay per views coming up

I usually enjoy these videos and 99% of the time agree, and not on many occasions has WWE acknowledged TNA but when it comes to them selling kurt hadn't wrestled in 10 years since leaving may i refer you to the WWE network special 24 kurts home coming.. where they talk about kurt leaving because of pain and addiction to pain killers and acknowledged his time in TNA and even had dixie carter talk on the special Cant think of too many other times ive heard TNA mentioned

"EC3 could of have been a WWE star"? Comedic presentation is cool, poor grammar is not.

Hey TNA had other wwe employees such as Hulk Hogan Kevin Nash Scott Hall X-Pac Ric Flair Mick Foley Eric Bastoff Bobby Lashley Booker T Sting Scott Stiner MVP Rob Van Dam Tomkio Earl Hendry and his son Devon Dudley Baubba Rey Dudley Ryino Reaven Goldust. Give it a like if you agree with the way I typed it all up.

number 11: the fact they still exist

WWE also wants you to forget all of the now stars they passed on that were in NXT tryouts, NXT, even Tough Enough. HUGE stars like Brian Cage and Ivelise. Cage defeated Bobby Lashley in his last televised iMpact match and Ivelise has held multiple titles in Lucha Underground and other promotions.
