Having recently signed up to the newly renamed TNA+ partly due to always having a liking for TNA and partly due to finding the fantastic Cross the Line TNA podcast in which they are reviewing all TNA shows starting from the very beginning. I got me thinking and have decided to do my own rebooking of TNA from Day 1.

I have set myself some rules because although this is fantasy rebooking I also want to keep it realistic.

The following NWA titles will be used and the starting champions (who were the champions at the time of the first PPV.);

  • NWA World Heavyweight Champion - 'The Beast' Dan Severn
  • NWA World Tag Team Champions - The Shane Twins (Mike and Todd Shane) (w/Mortimer Plumtree)
  • NWA National Champion - Hotstuff Hernandez
  • NWA X-Division Title - Champion to be crowned.

Only wrestlers not under contract else were can be used, but i can use the for as long as i want.

I will also be using Xplosion as my syndicated show to help promote the Weekly PPV's along with further some stories and showcasing some talent.

Here is the roster I will be using from the start;

  • Ken Shamrock
  • Jeff Jarrett
  • Buff Bagwell
  • Scott Hall
  • Steve Corino
  • CW Anderson
  • Shane Douglas
  • Sabu
  • Apollo
  • Sonny Siaki
  • Ron Killings
  • Brian Christopher
  • Monty Brown
  • AJ Styles
  • Jerry Lynn
  • Homicide
  • Amazing Red
  • Kid Romeo
  • Shark Boy
  • Jimmy Yang
  • CM Punk
  • Chris Candido
  • Bryan Danielson
  • Psicosis
  • The Prophecy (Christopher Daniels, Low Ki, Elix Skipper)
  • America's Most Wanted (James Storm, Chris Harris)
  • Diamonds in the Rough (Simon Diamond, Johnny Swinger)
  • Los Maximo's (Joel & Jose Maximo)
  • The Naturals (Chase Stevens, Andy Douglas)
  • The Briscoe's (Mark & Jay Briscoe)
  • Bad Street Boys (Christian York, Joey Matthews)
  • Road Warriors (Hawk, Animal)
  • Rainbow Express (Bruce, Lodi, Lenny) (w/Joel Gertner)
  • The Dupps (Stan & Bo Dupp) (w/Fluff Dupp)
  • Rick Steiner & Stevie Ray

Hope everyone likes what I do with this project and look forward to seeing your comments.

  • Jarrett makes his way to the ring during Toby Keith’s performance of Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue, pushing past Keith on his way. Only for Keith to jump in the ring and attack Jarrett before helping Buff eliminate him. 
  • Scott Hall and Malice eliminate each other and brawl to the back.
  • After Norman Smiley eliminated Brian Christopher a sour Christopher reaches up and pull out Smiley and lays him out on the floor.

Show Notes

  • Show begins with Mike Tenay and Don West making the announcement that over the next 2 weeks we will determine the number 1 contenders for all the 3 Major Titles in the NWA. Starting tonight with the first round of the Tag Team tournament. As well as the debut of a special 2 stage Gauntlet for the Gold match in which 20 men will fight it out in a Royal Rumble style match with the last two competitors in the ring immediately facing off in a traditional one on one match to determine the Number one contender for the NWA World champion.
  • The X-Division 6 Man Tag opening contest is followed by an NWA legends presentation and announcement that the new NWA president is Ricky ‘The Dragon’ Steamboat, which is interrupted by Jeff Jarrett who says that he should have been given the first shot against NWA World Champion Dan Severn instead of going through this crap Gauntlet. Due to his interruption Steamboat makes him the number 1 entrant.
  • Brian Christopher interrupts a backstage interview with Norman Smiley saying his big wiggle is nothing compared to his dance skills. The two argue before agreeing to a match on the debut edition of Xplosion.
  • We hear from Father James Mitchell and the Disciples of the New Church who promise to wreak havoc on TNA starting tonight in the Gauntlet for the Gold.
  • We see a video package highlighting some of the talent set to be featured in the X-Division.
