Who could they get from WWE that would be worthy of going in the TNA HOF? Christian is the only name that I can think of that had a big enough run there and that could actually belong in the TNA HOF.

The logo reminds me of a beer logo.

It is a bit dark, I thought that they would add some yellow and blue to the logo since they are the TNA colours along with red.

TNA have said that they will announce the first inductee at Slammiversary. Are they going to have a ceremony for the HOF each year like WWE do or are they simply going to put people in the HOF?

Do they even still call themselves TNA?

Impact HOF would sound stupid.

They're still TNA, just the name of the show is Impact Wrestling. It's still the "TNA World Heavyweight Title." And the PPV is still "TNA Slammiversary." Their Twitter is @IMPACTWRESTLING though, which is stupid.

I was under the impression last year that they had finally come to grips with the fact "TNA" is a stupid name for a wrestling company and were trying to phase it out. It's not even called "TNA: Impact Wrestling" on the television guide, it's just "Impact Wrestling".

I think both names are stupid, but still... "TNA" sounds like a porn show.

Even in ten years, they haven't done anything to truly get themselves noticed.

They've done a lot more than any other company other than the 'E. TNA and ROH started around the same time, ROH first actually, look how much more TNA has grown compared to ROH.

Thats like saying the CFL has done more than the AFL.

Look's like it's going to be Christian

Dixie Carter just tweeted the following: "On a plane headed to Dallas for the big PPV this weekend. Very excited @Christian4Peeps is joinin us for the night. He's one of my favorites".

Obviously, she could be intimating that Christian will be the first member of the Hall of Fame. Given that he is a WWE contracted talent, it wouldn't surprise me that Christian appearing on Sunday is the payback for TNA allowing Ric Flair to appear at the WWE Hall Of Fame.

May not be him and he might just be there backstage because it's a milestone for TNA and everything (I think it's a milestone). And I seriously doubt WWE would let one of their contracted talents and champions appear on a TNA ppv and in their ring quite possibly. But if it is him, my thoughts are that Christian does NOT deserve the first HOF spot over the other guys that have been in TNA. Stupid decision and TNA is just trying to get some easy exposure. They are an awful company.

Why would WWE let him go there for the night just to hang around backstage?

Christian was the only real proven draw TNA ever had, makes sense to put him in their HOF.

Now it just sounds like TNA decided to make a HOF just because WWE gave them permission to use a guy for something that would be one off and not in a physical role.

It makes sense for Christian to get inducted, just not first. Both Jerry and Jeff Jarrett deserve to go in since they founded the company.

Christian was one of the company's best draws, but I'd rather see Angle go in as far as wrestlers are concerned. Not saying he's not deserving I just think its a strange choicd

ROH has much more talented guys in my opinion, and TNA is backed by a decently wealthy company.
