June 19, 2002: TNA's First-Ever PPV Match

[goldwincs]

TNA should more focus on awesome high flyer x-division and charismatic tag team instead of just storylines.

[Ultraliskification]

The Flying Elvises = (today TNA x today WWE)^100

[inthisjaunt14]

The "X" division might as well have always had a weight limit.

[DJFingerboarder]

When You Get To 1:29 Pause it And You Will See A Boner

[pglove69]

TNA WAS Total None-stop Action, thats why it worked! That what got me watching TNA people like amazing red lo ki, aj daniels, homicide etc. when tito knockout double J! but i'm still a mark! But does it seem like they had more people in the crowd in this video then they do now?

[liveandletrock864]

@pglove69 and the crowd was louder. the 1000 in the impact zone even was louder than the fake wwe crowd noises. but tna changed so all the hardcore fans left so now the place is half full with plants and they need fake crowd sounds in every episode

[goldwincs]

@pglove69 this is a pay-per-view. the first TNA pay-per-view.

[HxCPantsParty]

I wanna see more action like this from the X division. They're still good, but nothing like this!

[wwekraze111]

this looks exactly the same as wcw nitro

[aussiewogfob]

This was TNA at its best

[aussiewogfob]

This was when TNA was at its best.

[logom0]

look how young and in shape AJ styles looks!

[killerkam786]

LO key is Kaval from WWE

[MastersOfStupidness]

jimmy wang yang

[youngnas09]

This match was absolutely magnificent

[THWFactionZone]

why is this 18 +???

[ThelraterGamer]

Man I wish WWE had a tag team that tried to emulate 2 lubricated erect penis's. I guess TNA is just better like that.

[ShowToddSomeLove]

Man... Flying Elvises? Announcers who won't shut the fuck up about how great they think the promotion is?

TNA has always been bullshit.

[mrwarped]

@ShowToddSomeLove well it was their FIRST SHOW

[ShowToddSomeLove]

@mrwarped Yeah, I'm just saying this started the tradition of TNA being terrible.

[xXxBadToTheBonexXx]

i remember this show cost me 9.99$ on direcTV it was every wednesday of each week

[iggz4u2nv]

That attendance looks BIG. Why can't TNA attract this type of attendance anymore. They really need to stay out the Impact Zone.

[THErockRULES95]

TNA Sort Of Reminded Me of WCW back then..

[wmn09001]

great match....too bad TNA is hideous now....they can't even draw that kind of crowd anymore.

[shawdowthewind]

I would rather watch 3 minute matches like this than watch they crap they show now in tna :(

[HardKoreSuperstar01]

flying elvises hahaha

[RommyTDW2]

back when wrestling was good..

[bigfloridapimp]

3:58 hideous no sell by Akio. Im ashamed of him.

[klproduct]

Quit whining for gods sake. Yes Wrestling was better back then, everybody knows that. But seriously, why cant we all just watch some classic wrestling footage without some idiots complaining how wrestling was better back then. To be honest wrestling today isnt that bad if you think about it. Your all just making it seem bad because every time you watch new wrestling all you think about is how wrestling was better back then. Accept it and move on.

[thethunderbird87]

anyone know where I can find the video where Toby Keith slams Jeff Jarrett?

[joeylily11]

jimmy wang was a good wrestler in the wwe haven't seen him in tna.

[IxmAWESOMExmI]

Jimmy Wang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AAAnderson002]

I plead with you fellow wrestling fans post TNA 2002 to at least 2005 so we can escape WWE's new breed of mediocrity. Let's face it today's WWE sucks and we need classic TNA and the WWF Attitude Era to remember that there was a time when wrestling was good.

[nexivdr]

@AAAnderson002 no we need to support tna now, we need to stop only watching on the internet and buy merch and ppv's

[AAAnderson002]

@nexivdr

Then they also need to make every TNA episode available on DVD or otherwise.

[AAAnderson002]

and I need something of wrestling to wash away the crap that today's WWE has already become (I fear they're gonna drop the ball with CM Punk and have Cena lose the belt to the most undeserving of the entire roster...but you you already know that.)

[AAAnderson002]

Is it too much to ask for someone to upload entire TNA shows from 2002 going forward instead of all these TNA fragments that people keep posting? There's so much I missed from that period like Mickie James as Alexis Laree, Team Canada, AMW, The New Church, AJ Styles in his X-division years (continued)

[dazeordavid]

impact is coming back to this arena right on august 25th for the start of a new era

[jamesfintona123]

this was on my bday i was at it with my dad :)

[Jay0101011]

"the flying elvises", isnt that jimmi wang yang from wwe

and low ki is kaval from wwe nxt

lol

[caden7836]

@Jay0101011 ya

[WWWYKIbroski]

[FcukCensoredSht]

@WWWYKIbroski yep

[WWWYKIbroski]

low ki rules

[Slash3988]

Low Ki = Kaval from NXT ??

[hyppo232]

@Slash3988 Yep, that's him indeed !!

[sobanke22]

Low Ki has 1 of the strongest kicks ive ever seen

[SuperPackersfan04]

Are the Flying Elvises going to be on this weeks Impact. TNA just keeps bringing back the retreads. I just about turned it off when The Disco Inferno showed up a couple of weeks ago.

[TheDylangross58]

9 years ago tonight

[SpikeTuscani]

The best match I have ever seen! Awesome!

[TheJeffman1985]

Wow, with a name like "The Flying Elvises" it's easy to see why these people went nowhere....... HAHA

[WazzTheSecond]

Wow, when AJ bounced off the ropes around 7:10 you could hear the weird sound, I'm guessing that's the rope that broke a few minutes before the show lol

Props to Don West, "This X-Division is going to be something!"

[4lifeReagan]

Was this PPV at the Nashvillew Municipal Coliseum?

[Arrispy]

That quality matches at Destination X 2011 - please, make my dreams come true :)

[hazor777]

Jorge Estrada, whom I know personally: had some great skill -all 3 Flying Elvises were great! Entertaining at the very least!

[TheSWFuniverse]

The good old Wednesday Night TNA $10 PPVs

[sacredrealm]

6:50 was awesome.

[sacredrealm]

I wish they'd get this arena/stage/ring again or something similar

[SPGenerationUK]

The arena seems quite bigger than the ones we seen on TV.

4 sided ring!

Looks abit bigger than the current 4 sided ring too!

Good, bright lighting too!

[venusfighter98]

[TheEternity123]

@planb635 Yep , I know it only now. Fuck man!

[left4dead91]

@planb635 Kaval/low-Ki is From RoH & Tna, Idiot

[planb635]

@left4dead91 dumbass look up kaval wwe and you"ll see him there

[ProWrestlingGalaxy]

@planb635

No, it's Low Ki from ROH, japan and the indies, also known as Senshi later in TNA... then known as Kaval in WWE.

[GANLEYBRAND]

@leebo470 same guy

[jpplaya1]

I wonder if Jerry Lynn was the inspiration for Mickey Rourke in 'the Wrestler'

[AsafSchnider]

OMG this match was fucking amazing !!! i wish both TNA and WWE would go back to the times where every match was fucking awesome as this!

[269claire]

0:22 kaval?

[VoorkJTV]

Oh hey look, a 4 sided ring!

[2011mrkingofkings]

I didn't know Akio wrestled in TNA Wrestling and in indies before he went to WWE.

[Nionskywalker]

WOW! the TNA's format looks just like WCW's ring and stage

[tubecruser2]

now I know why these guys did not make it to hollywood

[Mclarenboy100]

Wait....TNA's first match involved people dressed as Elvis?

[kimblev1]

I hope they didnt pay those legends to just stand there and show emotions at the screen.

[XSC3]

thank you very much. elvises have left the building

[naamgaatjeniksaan]

WWE WWE WWE WWE WWEWWE WWE WWE WWE WWEWWE WWE WWE WWE WWEWWE WWE WWE WWE WWE

[MuffinR2Pro4U]

@naamgaatjeniksaan Learn to spell faggot. xD

[naamgaatjeniksaan]

@MuffinR2Pro4U NO

[KungFriedChicken]

O man the pathedic wrestlers of today are sooo fucking cheesy.. when I was a lad we had rock n roll wrestling.. king kong bundy, junkyard dog, the iron sheik, ricky the dragon steamboat, ultimate warrior, honky tonk man, mr wonderful, jimmy superfly suka, jake the snake roberts, undrea the giant, hulk hogan, big boss man, hacksaw jim dugans.. the list is endless... these guys are shit!!!

[wwe4life74]

jimmy wang yang from the wwe is in the elvis impersonaters

[KungFriedChicken]

@wwe4life74 well before the World Wildlife Fund made them change name from WWF - world wrestling federation - to WWE it was the honky tonk man who was the elvis guy...

[SaiyajinCMC82]

Hogan and Flair were in the WWE at this time.

[2011mrkingofkings]

@SaiyajinCMC82 When the brand extension era already began less than a couple months ago.

[Delta2kx1]

I rooted for everybody, this shit was epic, AJ, Low Ki, Jerry Lynn & Flying Elvises >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Anything in wrestling today

[tvlovesarocket]

total nonstop assholes

[TheJackmufc]

elvis people crap entrance



[VillaFanFTW]

TNA went the wrong way, this made TNA and I could watch this more then once easily.

[AngelusDlion]

@VillaFanFTW I hear you... Hogan, nuff said... I'd rant about it but I've a feeling it'd be preaching to the flock.. :P

[JacobMke]

I really enjoyed this match

[OFFICIALDAHULK]

tna need to go back to that and not wat tna has become now

[Bobby33425]

Is that Jimmy Wang Yang from WWE? Anyone know?

[manodoedgar]

@Bobby33425 yes it is. Actually he was in TNA before WWE, I think.

[tigertigersnm]

is it just me or does anybody else here feels like being a WRESTLER if so then go for it good luck nd never give up on ur dreams.

[erictherocker95]

wait jimmy wang yang from wwe?

[spongesa27]

kaval came to wwe

[GTAFANMAN1]

@spongesa27 ......and leaved it after 3-6 months!

[bbussey1967]

To bad TNA doesn't look anything like this anymore.

What a great match !!!!!

[AntiQueerRocks]

Jimmy Who ???

[JXtreme85]

This is when TNA was good

[undisputed4life]

@JXtreme85 Kind of hard to believe that TNA was good at one point. I wish TNA today would be as great as it back then.

[caden7836]

@JXtreme85 no currently is the best

[varhe225]

@JXtreme85 get over it

[WWEooDC]

T the

N noob

A assholes

nuff said

[Elltrixer]

@WWEooDC Ah, I see the kids are back to trollin'

[CrotchBlaster]

@WWEooDC what's your problem? Are you mad because your fruitty pepple Cena lost his match last night and now you have to cry and bitch about TNA? It's not their fault believe me.

[WWEooDC]

@CrotchBlaster no asshole , i am sad because your stupid shitty ass tna stole the undertaker 2 21 11 promo you moron , btw :  CENA SUCKS DICKS

[manodoedgar]

@WWEooDC actually it was a parody. They were mocking WWE like: "We are the ones that have Sting, you losers!". At least Imlike to think of it that way...

[WWEooDC]

@manodoedgar bitch , shut the fuck up

[manodoedgar]

@WWEooDC did baby run out of arguments? whats that? please baby, don't cry...

[WWEooDC]

@manodoedgar what do you want me to say ,, waste my time on a noob asshole ?? no thanks ..

[manodoedgar]

@WWEooDC "noob asshole"? I was correcting YOUR mistake, not offending you... TNA has the BEST wrestlers, WWE does NOT! On the other hand WWE has a best product. The "TNA is full of WWE rejects" comment was never valuable, cause WWE used WCW rejects to win the Monday Night Wars. I'm not a noob, and neither is TNA. The only noob here is Vince Russo. I'm not offending anyones intellegence, I'm triyng to teach you stuff. If you don't know what the Monday Night Wars is, then Google it, same for Russo

[WWEDivasProductionz]

@manodoedgar Tna does NOT have the best wrestlers! Sure they have some good wrestlers, but TNA are too far up their asses to realise that, because they only care about the overrated wrestlers. Same goes with the WWE. They have some amazing talent but are always stuck on WWE Superstars. Wrestling is never what it once used to be, and to compare the WWE to TNA is like comparing The Rock to the PG Cena. WWE is the better product. Just admit it.

[manodoedgar]

@WWEDivasProductionz WWE IS better product. TNA has better wrestler. Not the best, I don't watch indies but I know they have the best ones. That was my mistake.

[AngelusDlion]

@WWEDivasProductionz Opinions are like assholes.

Everyone has one, they all stink.

[WWEDivasProductionz]

@AngelusDlion Well life ain't all about facts.

[1rubi111]

What a Great match, God.

[invisibleman275]

TNA actually was action then a bit. Now its just total nonstop drama

[lawtonokieguy]

Damn you mayhem.....you suck!!!!

[EpicWrestlingTv]

Dam man tna had that crowd?? Also why wwe legends?

[bridgetteyates]

TNA should be like this now.

[dabreeduk]

Hey apppppppa how bout u shut the hell up

Or I show u some real fighting tool, and please call me a hillbilly as ghat would show how much of a moron u really are

[appppppa]

@SlipknotRocksSIC ur still a hillbilly.

[tearsp07]

@appppppa and your just a troll who has nothing better to do in his life then try and rattle people over the internet, oh no its fake, its scripted, just like movies, hillbillys for enjoying what you obviously dont like watching? oh jeez im offended :O sooner or later you'll realize the world doesnt revolve around you

[appppppa]

@tearsp07 You seem upset, is it because you are a hillbilly that likes to watch fake fighting?

[tearsp07]

@appppppa you seem like a douchebag, who seems to get off by watching people reply to your trolling

[appppppa]

@tearsp07 Jerking atm to the comments.

[tearsp07]

@appppppa figured as much

[Gatz22]

I actually cried after watching this last night because I realised the spark that TNA had from the early days has vanished in todays TNA and they are going to go bust

[appppppa]

@SlipknotRocksSIC It showed randomly in the right side of youtube. You must have a boring life to think that this is fun to watch. Hillbilly.

[appppppa]

how can people watch this fake shit?

[wallsofjericho789]

@appppppa they dont they just script it

[Rkomegakillz]

@appppppa So do you watch tv and think that, Do you watch Films and think they're real?

Dipshit.

[verocity115]

TNA x-division is boring now, they dont have matches like this no more, TNA overall is just not getting it no more

[verocity115]

@Gatz22 I didnt see it but i heard it has some terrible feedback

[verocity115]

TNA x-division is bring now, they dont have matches like this no more, TNA overall is just not getting it no more

[nephilim310]

damn TNA couldve been a competitor for WWE if they wouldve just kept this and pushed their own wrestlers (not WWE) and made them into big time names ...too bad their a joke now and are too busy worring about what WWE does instead of trying to put attenition to their own company...so much for TNA beign innovative

[4xthomos]

wtf 0:39 Rick Steamboat

[thedream718]
