10 Weirdest TNA Main Events Ever

The house that Jarrett built has put out some very strange content over the years

Did you ever have a really old and infirm pet that, no matter how sick it got or how many times your parents told you to say goodbye, just wouldn't die? TNA is the wrestling equivalent.

The company co-founded by Jeff Jarrett has had countless run-ins with the wrestling reaper through bad TV deals, dodgy owners, and various scandals, and yet it's still here over 20 years on from its founding. 

In that time, the promotion has put on some amazing matches and some of the worst things to ever happen in a wrestling ring, but these matches are among the weirdest to ever close out a major show. 

To clarify, a "main event" means the final match on a card, regardless of what promotional material may tell you. This list is only going to include pay-per-views, as there's enough material from the company's TV output for an entirely new list. Every variation of the company is included here - TNA, NWA-TNA, Impact Wrestling etc. - so don't worry about keeping track of what they were called at the time.

10. Kenny Omega vs Rich Swann - Rebellion 2021

At AEW Winter is Coming 2020, Kenny Omega defeated Jon Moxley to win the company's top title with a little help from TNA employee Don Callis.

This Earth-shattering moment sparked the beginning of a working relationship between the two promotions, culminating in this history-making match at Rebellion 2021. In one corner was Omega and, standing opposite him, Rich Swann, the Impact World Champion. One fall, both belts on the line, winner take all. This was going to get spicy.

Owing to the politics involved, matches between two world champions from different companies are extremely rare, especially with both titles up for grabs. It's even rarer that they have a conclusive finish, but this one provided just that when Omega pinned Swann to become a double champion. 

Ok, he was actually a triple champion, as he was also the AAA Mega Champion at the time. But let's not complicate things. 

Omega would reign with the TNA gold for a chunky 110 days before dropping the title to Christian Cage, who also worked for AEW. He would later be beaten by Josh Alexander, restoring balance to the universe.
