TNA Wrestling was a professional wrestling company that originated shortly after World Championship Wrestling (WCW) ended in 2001, with the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, later WWE) gaining a monopoly on the industry. The concept of TNA was suggested by Bob Ryder, Jeff Jarrett, and Jerry Jarrett, who contemplated their futures in the professional wrestling business while on a fishing trip. Ryder suggested a company not reliant on television, but rather one going straight to pay-per-view.

Over the years, TNA underwent several changes, including a name change to Impact Wrestling after being bought by Anthem Sports. However, TNA never became serious competition for WWE, despite employing some of the best wrestlers in the world. Here are some key events that happened to TNA Wrestling:

• Many well-known names or veterans of the company left TNA from 2013 to 2014, including AJ Styles, Jeff Jarrett, Eric Young, Bobby Roode, and Velvet Sky.
• TNA collaborated with Wrestle-1 in producing the Kaisen: Outbreak supershow in Tokyo, Japan, where three TNA wrestlers won the Wrestle-1 Tag Team Championship.
• TNA eventually started touring more often, but it was too late to salvage what was already a sinking ship. The company ended up returning to Universal Studios in 2013, which is where it has stayed ever since.
• Anthem purchased a controlling stake in TNA, rebranded it Impact Wrestling, and removed Dixie Carter as head of the company.
• In an effort to revive their brand, TNA Wrestling underwent a rebranding in 2017 and became known as Impact Wrestling.

In summary, TNA Wrestling underwent several changes over the years, including a name change to Impact Wrestling after being bought by Anthem Sports. However, TNA never became serious competition for WWE, despite employing some of the best wrestlers in the world.
