10 Stupidest Things That Ever Happened In TNA

8. Kings Of Wrestling

Kevin Nash and Scott Hall could legitimately lay claim to being amongst the coolest cats in wrestling history when running roughshod as the nWo. They exuded the kind of street cred most could only dream of, and sold t-shirts by the truckload thanks to their pop culture savvy.

They couldn't repeat the trick in TNA.

Nash and Hall teamed up with Jeff Jarrett to form the 'Kings Of Wrestling' in 2004. The idea had merit; all three guys were veterans, and their entitled gimmick might've worked had they borrowed some New World Order magic. Sadly, they didn't - they walked around like goofs wearing Elvis-style jumpsuits and cabaret-singer sunglasses.

What the hell happened here? Who honestly thought taking The Outsiders, sticking them with Jarrett (who had some heat at that point in his career) and turning them into the kind of thing WCW circa 1993 would've loved was a great idea?

Cesaro and Chris Hero (the other 'Kings Of Wrestling'), they weren't.
