One of Jeremy's most notable crowning achievements in TNA was the first ever British Bootcamp series back in 2013. Drafting in Marty Scurll, The Blossom Twins and Rockstar Spud for the faux-reality contest, Borash produced a wonderful season of tightly-focused episodes that sold fans on why they should care about the winner.

The idea took WWE's own Tough Enough format and brought it bang up to date by presenting the struggles of becoming a top wrestling star in easy-to-digest, bite-sized chunks. By the end, Scurll and Spud (in particular) were much bigger names. Since then, one has become a member of the Bullet Club and the other is WWE's 205 Live General Manager.

Borash likely wouldn't take any credit for bringing these men to the dance, but he should. The first season of Bootcamp is one of the finest things TNA have ever released, shined new light on the UK scene and made it easier for the cast to transition from British indy shows to a bigger platform.
