SEASON 2 - EPISODE THIRTEEN- TNA Destination X 2007
Oh how we've missed TNA. It was great news to hear that Impact Wrestling will return to the once loved brand of TNA Wrestling in early 2024. We will be back to celebrate TNA's legacy around that time but before we do, we are checking out one of the reasons why the brand needed a break. In 2007 TNA was expanding it's roster and it's global appeal. Kurt Angle was the poster boy whilst the likes of Christian, AJ Styles, Sting and Samoa Joe padded out a strong roster of talent. However in true TNA style, despite having plenty of positive tools in their armour, management had decided to try to recreate a buzz from a decade past. Vince Russo, a fairly devisive booker was in charge of most of the creative at the time, and Destination X was well and truly out of his copy book. A Double Bull Rope Match, an Elevation X match, a Last Rites Match and a Ghetto Brawl all happening on a card so overbooked that the cries of Fire Russo would echo around the arena. Was it that bad though? And can we unpick the damage done by Mr Russo? Well you had Better Call Creative and find out!
