who exactly has broken through the glass ceiling that Jim Cornette was yelling about weeks ago?
I don't care much either way about TNA,but it is silly to carry on about everyone getting a chance when nothing has changed.

Christian did, Rhyno did for a day or two, Sting has, and Kurt Angle definitely has. Abyss did, though that was only because someone slammed his head through it repeatedly. |

Not so much recently, but surely AJ Styles and Ron Killings are perfect examples of this

abyss just last impact not only kicked out of the angle slam, he reversed the angle lock and ended up pinning angle cleanly .

I don't really see anyone as having done so.
Until guys like Lethal, Sabin/Shelley, Harris, Storm get a consistant push (that's logical)...then perhaps they will break on through.
Rhino got the run with the belt because Kevin Nash was "sick."
AJ Styles hasn't been highlighted since his tag team with Daniels.
LAX isn't as hot as they were.
Samoa Joe? He's gotten a bunch of main events.

The closest one is Abyss since he actually held the title for a little while and he won because Sting got pissed an pushed a ref instead of a clean or at least intervention pin(despite Sting supodley wanting to give him the clean pin) and Joe for being Kurt's personal Jobber... No glass celling at all.

At least Shark Boy & Petey Williams finally broke through the television glass ceiling a week or two ago.

I think TNA's glass ceiling vagely resembles the letters of WWE and WCW kinda all blended together.

Their 'glass ceiling' is like an elevator; you might break it one week, but they build a taller one in its place a few months later.

abyss just last impact not only kicked out of the angle slam, he reversed the angle lock and ended up pinning angle cleanly . With his finisher, too. No crappy rollups. |

the Glass Ceiling has been broken for months. where do you think Abyss is getting all the shards of glass from?

what is "breaking through the glass ceiling"? In business terms, it means when an employee who seemingly "doesn't fit the mold" of the type of employee that typically gets promotions/raises in a certain company manages to nevertheless "break through" and attain a higher status. The glass ceiling itself is meant to mean a sort of "invisible barrier" keeping certain kinds of people from getting a shot at upward mobility, while others who fit that certain mold get all the benefits. |

I kind of hurts their point to have all of the belt on One Freakin' Guy. (Broken Freaken Neck that will Break Your Freaken Ankle, no less)

Ken Shamrock (NWA Champion)
Ron Killings (NWA Champion)
Raven (NWA Champion first World Title win since ECW)
AJ Styles (NWA Champion)
Jeff Hardy (Main Event PPV for NWA Title)
Rhino (NWA Champion first World Title win since ECW)
Christian Cage (NWA Champion)
Tomko (actually featured in major faction and getting plenty of TV time)
Christopher Daniels (NWA Tag Team Champion multiple times, X-Division Champion Multiple times)
Sumoa Joe (Tag Team Champion, X-Division Champion) WWE would make him like Umaga
Chris Sabin (Multiple time X-Division Champion)

Maybe this will give them the idea to do a glass ceiling match with a bunch of jobbers. There is a huge class ceiling above the ring and the person to break it with any part of their body gets a title shot.

I somehow doubt TNA can afford a glass ceiling. It's probably more like, a rubber composite ceiling.
