10 Most Important Non-WWE Wrestling Moments Of The 2010s

2. Hogan And Bischoff Join TNA

Oh boy, here we go.

Formed in 2002, TNA (Total Non-Stop Action) debuted as a series of weekly pay-per-views in association with the National Wrestling Alliance. In 2004, they launched their own weekly show, Impact!, which still runs to this day.

At one point, TNA was seen as the true alternative to WWE; an edgier, more impressive in-ring product for the hardcore wrestling fans. Many hoped that one day they would rise up and challenge WWE's spot at the top of the wrestling mountain. Then these two clowns came along.

In 2010, TNA made the ill-fated decision to hire Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff in backstage roles.

The pair quickly showed why they were a big part of consigning WCW to a horrible death nine years prior. They made several big changes, including getting rid of TNA's iconic six-sided ring and bringing in a host of older, ex-WWE and WCW stars. They also moved Impact to Monday nights, directly opposite Raw, until it got its ass kicked so badly in the ratings it moved back to Thursday.

These bad decisions turned a once-promising company into a joke and TNA has never recovered.
