Line 1:
{{
Here is the listing of wrestlers in [[TNA]]:
Line 8:
* [[The Artifact]]: That he uses an acoustic guitar as his [[Weapon of Choice]] was from his original WWF days, [[Wrestling Doesn't Pay|as an aspiring country music star.]]
* [[Card-Carrying Villain]]: His MMA gimmick is this in spades, combine [[Small Name, Big Ego]] with [[Drill Sergeant Nasty]] with a nice side of plain old evil, some of his lines while teaching a class of five year olds were downright [[Crosses the Line Twice|hilarious]].
{{quote|
* [[Professional Wrestling/Awesome Music|Crowning Music Of Awesome]] / [[Leitmotif]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkbKAp3YTgw BWEE WOO BWEE WOO BREE], it's so cool you can even ignore the [[Fridge Logic]], the man's supposed to be a country music star, so one would think he'd get a country theme.
* [[Dark Chick]]: To Immortal, everybody else (well, [[Jeff Hardy|almost]] everybody else) wants something concrete, Jarrett apparently just wants to hurt people.
** [[Motive Decay]]: Wasn't the reason why he joined Immortal was to get his company back from Dixie Carter?
* [[Et Tu, Brute?]]: Sting's betrayal really hurt him, since that means Sting is onto his plan.
* [[Fan Nickname]]: "Triple J", because he is compared to the [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]]'s Triple H.
* [[Improbable Weapon User]] / [[Musical Assassin]]: Jeff Jarrett's trademark is hitting people over the head with guitars.
* [[Kick the Dog]]: Slapping [[Non-Action Guy|Jeremy Borash]] had no point beyond establishing Jeff Jarrett as an asshole.
* [[Power Stable]]: Planet Jarrett
Line 29:
* [[The Woobie]]: After Hogan buried him and his wife died.
* [[Would Hit a Girl]]: For a while this was a good deal of his gimmick, he hit everybody with a guitar, male, female, whatever.
* [[X
==== [[AJ Styles|A.J. Styles]] (Allen Jones) ====
Line 37:
* [[Cool Shades]]
* [[Professional Wrestling/Funny|Crowning Moment Of Funny]]: He was tossed a mic by Tommy Dreamer.
{{quote|
* [[The Dragon]]: As a heel, since nobody can out [[Big Bad]] [[Ric Flair]].
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]
Line 49:
* [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain]]: As a member of the Angle Alliance, he was more likely to be put in an overgrown holiday suit than win a match.
* [[Large Ham]]: Though not the largest in the business, when compared to the non-[[Ric Flair]] members of Fortune he's pretty over the top, [[Ric Flair]]'s mentoring has improved his previously lacking promo skills.
{{quote|
** Remarkably enough, as with the example above, [[I Gave My Word|he tends to back up what he says]].
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]: A guy as acrobatic as him should not be able to pick up Samoa Joe or Abyss, or be able to casually stand up while caught in a jujigatame.
* [[Pet the Dog]]: He may be a [[Smug Snake|smarmy]] arrogant showboat as a [[Heel]] but he is loyal to [[Ric Flair]], and his company, and the fellow members of Fortune.
** This was the base used for Fortune's face turn.
* [[
* [[Sharp-Dressed Man]]: One of the few good things to come of his recent heel run.
* [[Spot Monkey]]: Usually avoids this accusation with his legit talent.

* [[Power Stable]]: Immortal.
* [[
==== [[Christopher Daniels]] (Daniel Covell) ====
Line 100:
* [[Last-Name Basis]]: His 2009-10 run in TNA. Frankly even he didn't understand why.
* [[Our Angels Are Different]]
* [[
==== [[Kevin Nash]] ====
Line 213:
** [[Fridge Brilliance]]: Matt has put someone out with a concussion before. He ''referred'' to this on ''ReAction'' by bringing up that Hernandez didn't come back after him for months.
* [[The Giant]]: The man is seven feet tall, and does use a lot of power moves, but he's also a decent wrestler in other respects.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Aside from getting his start in the second season of [[
* [[It's All About Me]]
* [[Kick Chick|Kick Dude]]: His finisher, the Carbon Footprint.
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]

* [[Underwear of Power]]
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Daddy, oddly enough.
Line 285:
==== Douglas Williams (Douglas Durdle) ====
* [[The Ace]]: He can match [[AJ Styles]] move for move and then get the better of him, he qualifies.
* [[Arch Enemy]]: The X-Division, who he <s>insinuates</s> states loudly is a league of [[Spot Monkey
* [[Breakup Breakout]]: A more subtle example (the breakup was more low-key) as he's become the more successful of the British Invasion.
** Recently, this has been reversed. Williams has been reduced to barely-used jobber status, while his former tag partner Magnus has achieved success in another team.

* [[Put on a Bus]]
Line 396:
* [[The Dragon]]: To [[Jeff Hardy|his brother]].
* [[Evil Pays Better]] / [[Being Good Sucks]]: Why he decided to join Immortal and be a heel? Because he's tired of "doing the right thing" and having nothing to show for it.
* [[Expy]]: Unintentionally invoked. There's a reason why [[
** Some have even compared him to Raven as well.
* [[Good Counterpart]]: Averted. Tells RVD that he's not like his brother, [[Blatant Lies|before sucker punching him in the face]].
Line 407:
* [[Expy]]: TNA seems intent on making him the next [[Goldberg]].
* [[Face Heel Turn]]: On Matt Morgan.
* [[Genius Bruiser]]: In addition to being very big and strong, he totally pwned Jarrett at submission grappling.
* [[Good Is Not Nice]]: For a [[Face]] Crimson spends a lot of time beating people up.
* [[Good
* [[Ironic Echo]]: During his debut, he says 'They are coming', right after taking out Abyss with his own weapon. Those are the very same words Abyss said preceeding the arrival of Immortal, only this time Red is refering to {{spoiler|Fortune performing a collective [[Heel Face Turn]]}}.

* [[It's All About Me]]: Question - what happens when you get hoodwinked by [[Kurt Angle]] in a world title match, watch your best friend beat Angle with one move days later, get another shot at the title against your best friend in a couple of weeks, and during this match get knocked out of the ring next to your best friend's beer bottle? Answer - you usher in an era of selfishness.
* [[It's Personal]]: Cosniders Immortal firing Jay Lethal, a friend of his, this. Resulting in him giving Hogan a major [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]] and telling them its soon to be game over.

*** No doubt she's gorgeous, but the point is, is she prettier than, say, Gail Kim, Tara, or Mickie James?
**** Apples and papaya. Angelina goes to the back of the list however.
**** One may disagree about Angelina indeed. But Velvet is considered one of the best looking female wrestlers of them all.
**** The point, though, isn't whether one thinks they're indeed the hottest girls on the roster so much as it is the attitude taken by the program at times that they're head and shoulders above the rest in order to promote certain aspects of the character(s) when the truth is this is highly debatable.
* [[Les Yay]]: Beyond the [[Faux Yay]], they have a lot of this.
Line 620:
