When Jarett came back after his first hiatus following the loss of his wife. You could just see how much it had taken out of him and that he was a different man. Oddly enough, I'd say that was my favorite time for him as a performer. Never been huge on Double J but he was knocking out of the park. I can imagine that after a year of mourning the worst loss I could think of, getting back into it must have been a major relief and once he got his groove back he threw himself into it. Might add that the situation with Kurt, Karen, and Jarrett was a little sad to watch unfold. Glad they all managed t come out of it okay.

To be fair, I wouldn't call anything involving Kurt for the past four years or so "okay", but I also wouldn't pin any of that on Jeff or Karen, so I guess it's moot.

Wouldn't be surprised if putting everything into his performance helped him cope.

Also, not on the level of any of the above, obviously, but Taylor Wilde basically being so ashamed of getting spotted working her "shoot" job while she was a "World Champion" on tv that she had to quit because TNA pays their people peanuts. Similarly, Jesse Neal, while working for TNA, tweeting with excitement that he had qualified for foodstamps.

Funny how TNA has claimed they don't got any money and talent has to take paycut after paycut but they just so happened to have half a million lying around for Jenna Morsaca and 35 grand a week for Hogan, Bischoff, and Brooke.

For me the saddest moment came from a TV match last year I think on their "Genesis" themed show between Kurt Angle and Bobby Roode in a steel cage match.
Angle did a moonsault off the cage. A freaking moonsault. Landed stomach first and bounced a foot in the air all while the crowd sat in silence and maybe gave a small round of golf claps.
It was such a sad display to witness.

The day AJ Styles left TNA after everything he did to build the company. Only to end the way it did. Everything else said too it is horrible how bad people get treated in TNA and how Dixie comes off as this evil person more and more.Saying stuff that it would "make" the company look bad. No Dixie you done plenty to make your company look bad.
I'm also going to add showing one of the Highlanders in the crowd so he get fired and did NOTHING for him for costing him his job.

I gotta go with Hardy vs. Sting. I truly never seen a man at Rock Bottom before, it was a really sad thing to watch.

Classic case of a person or company in this case being cheap and telling their "lesser" talent who are gullible or want to stay on TV to take a paycut. Then you pull a stunt with Jenna Morsaca who is terrible and is infamous for the wrong reasons. It's a shame really, WWE got away with doing some shady shit a long time ago but just because it was done then doesn't mean you could do it now.

I got another one, while he was banged up during his early TNA run, it all went downhill when Kurt Angle got injured in that match they did in Asia, I think South Korea, where this fat guy wrestler just dropped him on his neck, he was never the same after that.

The moment Steiner left, the company has never recovered. This man knows what he's talking about.

When Macho Man came out in that tag match against (I think) Hall, Nash and Jarrett. He really couldn't do anything except punch, a headlock and sorta kinda maybe bend over enough to weakly pin Jeff Jarrett.

The saddest TNA moment didn't even take place in TNA - it's in WWE and his name is Samoa Joe. He'll definitely have a few good years in NXT/WWE, but he's on the other side of his prime and wasted all of it in TNA.
