TNA Giving Away Backstage Passes, TNA Vs. WWE, More
Chris Kelly sent this in: It's interesting to note that the intro video for TNA's program here in the UK showcasing the history of the company, TNA Epics, doesn't feature a single "homegrown" star. Well, unless you count Christopher Daniels, who competed in World Championship Wrestling prior to joining TNA. Here is the list of the stars in the order in which they appear: Hulk Hogan (who never actually appeared in a TNA ring), Sting, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Ken Shamrock, Road Warrior Animal, "Macho Man" Randy Savage, Jeff Jarrett, Scott Hall, Bobby Lashley, Raven, Tito Ortiz (was only a referee), Kurt Angle and Mick Foley. The video concludes with two action shots in Elix Skipper's huracanrana off the cage in 2004 and Christopher Daniels' leap from the corner to the center of the cables to win an Ultimate X match.
Harmony Jackson sent this in: Jeremy Borash has been hiding backstage passes at the arena's TNA has been in the past few shows. Utilizing twitter, letting his tweeting fans know in advance that he would be doing it, he then hides them, and sends out a tweet with a clue as to where to find them. The first person to find them, is lucky enough to go back stage where they will get to meet TNA superstars. https://twitter.com/JeremyBorash
