9. S.E.X
Ah Vince Russo, that man sure loves his subtlety. According to Russo, it was he who envisioned the name 'TNA' for Jeff and Jerry Jarrett's new venture in 2002, feeling the show could be a little more adult than anyone else because it was taking place on weekly Pay-Per-View. Wanting to be more traditional in their approach, the Jarrett's instead worked Russo's idea into a storyline, one which would see him front a group known as 'S.E.X', or 'Sports Entertainment Xtreme'. Much like many factions, the group was pretty much an nWo knock-off, and involved S.E.X trying to wrestle control of TNA from those and such as those in charge of the company. Thankfully, some good did come out of the whole ordeal, namely the 'Triple X' team of Christopher Daniels, Low Ki and Elix Skipper, men who were having some of the best matches on TNA television at the time. However, will anyone remember the stable for having such members as Erik Watts, David Young or Desire? Probably not.
