TNA Gut Check expands starting on Thursday’s IMPACT WRESTLING broadcast on SpikeTV

In the Spring of 2012IMPACT WRESTLING brought the TNA Gut Check to Spike TV! This competition sees an aspiring wrestler got a chance to tell his story, have a match and be evaluated with the ultimate goal of earning an IMPACT WRESTLING contract! Alex Silva, Taeler Hendrix, Sam Shaw, Wes Brisco and Christian York have all passed their Gut Checks to earn a spot on the roster. Now, the competition is getting even bigger!

Previously, the TNA Gut Check contestant would wrestle a member of the IMPACT WRESTLING roster in an attempt to impress the judges! Starting on Thursday’s broadcast, TWO Gut Check contestants will compete head-to-head. They will tell their story and face off against each other in the Gut Check match! The judging panel (Sr. VP of Talent Relations Bruce Prichard, Sr. Director of Talent Relations Al Snow, and former Two-Time World Champion Taz) will evaluate both wrestlers performance and give their final verdict on the January 17 IMPACT broadcast.

Tune in Thursday night to find out who these two new TNA Gut Check contestants are and follow their journey!

[AdamAFL was sooooo wrong]

Did someone say #Injustice?

[HMARK Center]

Hardy/Storm vs. Aries/Roode feels too much like a typical Raw main event, but at least they've spent time setting this one up.

[froggyfrog]

Two unsigned guys in Gut Check now? I kinda like it, but idk if the name Gut Check applies anymore then. It would be a gut check to step up against a TNA guy, but is it really a Gut Check to outperform some indy schmuck?

[Mayonnaise]

The Gutcheck match will be Mr. GMSI Brian Cage vs. Lonesome Jay Bradley.

[AdamAFL was sooooo wrong]

I don't know much about Bradley but I'm a big fan of Cage so I hope he does well and it leads to him being given a shot in TNA. He'd be a very good signing in my opinion.

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

I hope that Cage can get his shit in when it really counts.

[froggyfrog]

I'm a fan of both these guys, they'd both add a lot to TNA.

[HMARK Center]

Just thought about it, but Kenny and Zema had a match on PPV awhile back, would really like it if they got about 10 minutes this Thursday.

Not likely, I guess, but it'd be nice; TNA seems to shift between using the 9pm hour (when presumably more people are tuning in or at risk of tuning out) to either have a Hogan segment or to have a longer match to keep people's attentions, so I'd enjoy seeing it there.

[Jedi-El of Tomorrow]

Thanks to the Man In Black, is it the end of the Ace's reign of destruction on IMPACT?

Now a dead singer is beating up Aces & Eights?

Man, these guys will never be a legit threat.

While the name not fit, I like the idea of having 2 guys compete against each other rather than get squashed by a TNA guy.

Yeah, the Gut check matches never seemed to make any sense to me, as the non-signed talent just got beaten down on pretty quickly then looked an idiot when they got the thumbs up. Having them try to prove themselves by facing each other will work better, if they click.

[Deleted]

Since it hasn't been specified and this is TNA it's important to ask whether the winner or the loser of the Gut Check Challenge match gets a contract.

[Welfare Willis]

My guess is maybe!

[________ has left the building]

Disappointed that the trophy didn't get smashed.

[zeez]

Dang. I voted for Les Miz.

[________ has left the building]

Only the Hulkster can go balls deep in Brooke, brother!!

[Brood Lone Wolf Funker]

They will get revenge by losing some more

[Crappler El 0 M]

Hey...Sting's coming in the ring...
