10 Things TNA Wants You To Forget

10. The Reverse Battle Royal

In general, battle royals suck.

They are overstuffed with enhancement workers, all of whom have zero chance of actually winning. The timing is off, the eliminations are unspectacular and the winners are foregone conclusions. Only the Royal Rumble can be described as a particularly effective variation of the pro wrestling staple.

If battle royals suck that hard, why would TNA ever expect that a reverse battle royal would ever be a good idea?

With the idea of the match being to jump into the ring rather than throwing your opponent out of it, the contest proved to lack logic and wound up a greater cluster than anyone could have imagined. Flawed in development, even more so in execution, the match was a flop.

Thankfully, the company used the match sparingly over the years, packing it in mothballs for the next time they are feeling "innovative".
