Total Nonstop Action formed in 2002 as an alternative to WWE, and initially operated via weekly pay-per-view events for the first two years of its existence before switching to a traditional weekly television show two years later. Just like any wrestling promotion, TNA has gone through tremendous highs and lows over its twelve years in existence. There was a time when TNA was beloved by fans tired of the standard WWE formula, and their mix of well-known names and up-and-coming talent was a breath of fresh air. Their X-Division redefined the Cruiserweight style for the twenty-first century, and they helped bring credibility to the long dormant National Wrestling Alliance. Then there have also been many periods where TNA has been the laughing stock of the professional wrestling world. The introduction of Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff saw TNA go into a decline that it is still struggling to break free from. Through thick and thin, there are a number of wrestlers who made their name in the company and can truly be considered TNA guys. As Impact Wrestling makes its return to television with its Destination America debut, here are the ten longest serving roster members in TNA history.
