God damnit... 20-year-old Roderick Strong

He was such a little legit “baby face.”

This is how long I’ve been a fan of his. He obviously had a much better ring of honor career, but I discovered him through TNA. He was a big part of the reason I checked out ROH. Him and Aries had a fun 2005 especially and then left when TNA wanted all talent to pull from ROH and he chose ROH over TNA.

 

[Samoa Looch]

Nice

 

[Samoa Looch]

WOO AHAHAHAHA

 

[Samoa Looch]

Jeff's again wearing that outfit... my god

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Jeff Jarrett is the GOAT.

 

[Samoa Looch]

And he dropped Hogan's name twice now... there's no way Hulk will ever show up on a TNA show, Jeff. Stop dreaming.

I think you’re already passed it, but they actually came very close to having Hulk Hogan do a very short term program with Jarrett. It was actually gonna be the very first bound for glory in 2003.

 

[Samoa Looch]

I didn't know... but makes sense he's namedropping him then

 

[Ricky Smarks]

They filmed a vignette where Jarrett actually attacked Hogan on a new Japan show and the footage was shown everywhere for like weeks and then Jimmy Hart even showed up on NWATNA for a solid month and a half promoting bound for glory and then Hogan pulled out last second and the bound for glory show didn’t happen that year. They wouldn’t wind up doing it until 2005.

Oh damn, that's definitely more than I thought it was

Yeah, bound for glory 2003 in November was gonna be the start of their three hour pay-per-view and when they had to cancel it because of their main event falling through last second they decided not to go back to three hour PPV until the November of the following year so they actually lost a full year due to the debacle with Hogan lol but yeah, they promoted it heavy on TV all the way up until October I wanna say showing Advertisements for the pay-per-view and everything.
