TNA's 10 Craziest Matches

6. Silent Night Bloody Night

TNA has been accused of a lot of things over the year, but no one can ever, EVER, accuse them of not knowing how to get into the Christmas spirit!

In 2007, the company spent money on constructing a Christmas tree out of barbed wire. This is because it was a Silent Night Bloody Night match, so not having a barbed wire tree would have been disrespectful. The participants were Black Reign, Abyss, Rellik (that’s Killer spelled backwards as Mike Tenay liked to point out every 30 seconds), and of course, the company’s hardcore icon: Shark Boy.

The match saw the wrestlers open some presents in the ring, which contained weapons. Instead of a polite gift exchange then taking place, they bashed each other over the head with a baseball bat and a golf club. Some glass, and some tacks were then emptied on the mat. This all strangely reminds me of Christmas mornings in my family. Finally the tree came into play as a weapon too...except that it was tied to the rafters, so the wrestlers just awkwardly swung it at each other.

However, TNA was a bit of a Scrooge when they didn't deliver a finish as the lights went off, came back on, and Judas Messias, as the world's weirdest looking Santa Claus, was standing there. Merry Christmas? And speaking of Judas Mesias...
