10 Best TNA Wrestling Moments
Only the best TNA Wrestling moments
8. Victory Road 2004
For the first couple of years of its existence, TNA operated on a weekly, two-hour pay-per-view model. While this was novel, it was far from sustainable and, at some point, they realised they needed to switch to a more economically viable monthly schedule.
After a couple of false dawns, TNA finally presented its first three-hour monthly pay-per-view on November 7th, 2004.
Giving fans a taste of a little bit of everything they were about, Victory Road had a couple of exciting X-division matches, a Monster’s Ball brawl featuring Raven and homegrown favourites Abyss and Monty Brown, an Elimination Last Man Standing NWA Tag Team Title contest between America’s Most Wanted and Triple X and more.
In the show’s main event, Jeff Jarrett retained his NWA Worlds Heavyweight Title by beating Jeff Hardy with help from Scott Hall and Kevin Nash, before the reclusive Randy Savage emerged for the cliff-hanger conclusion.
It wasn’t a perfect show by any stretch of the imagination, but it was certainly a historic one and put TNA on the pay-per-view map once and for all.
