I love how many people put on the suit over the years: Kaz Christopher Daniels Akira Raijin TJP Jonathan Gresham Kaleb With A K Nash Carter
I'm surprised Impact still uses it every so often. Really one of those things that should've stayed dead (pun not intended) when they were purging everything "lolTNA" from the company.
It was really funny how obvious it was too, cause Kaz was like in the best shape of his life and Daniels looked like an imposter wearing a suit made for Frankie's huge self.

My favorite Suicide related memory is the one Motor City Machine Guns promo where they were whining and complaining about a litany of things, and among their list of gripes was that "we are getting attacked by video game characters." Well looks like he’s been pulled again. At the last set of tapings in August they filmed a six way x-division scramble for tonight’s victory road. Well at last nights taping they refilmed it as a five way scramble removing Suicide from the match. Considering they also filmed a ten bell salute to Daffney and are dedicating the entire woman’s special to her probably a good idea. Yeah, probably not a good idea to have a wrestler named Suicide performing on a show dedicated to a suicide victim. You would think that they would bring back the character under the Manik name if they really want it back because it's not exactly news that Suicide is an awkward name for a wrestler, but even as much as Impact has made strides to clean up their image, there's still a bit of TNA they'll never shed.

I think Manik's only been portrayed by TJP, though it also wouldn't be the first time we've had someone in Impact portray multiple characters at the same time.

They could have salvaged it by revealing he was Tim White all along.

Currently in TNA cannon they are two different characters. Suicide and TJP as Manic (its a really dumb costume)did some tag matches last year. When they doing an angle where TJP couldn’t get a title shot so he went back to the Manic character and won the title as him.

I mean, they went back on TJP being revealed as Suicide, so why not go back on Manik being a separate character that TJP used last year to get around the Rohit stipulation anyway?

Wait, I never saw him much besides a couple of matches. Was his name supposed to be literal and he wanted to kill himself?

Whenever he was hyped or triumphant he would start motioning that he was gonna shoot himself in the head. It was literally his Hogan earcup. Typing that out it all sounds a bit strange.

Suicide was the younger edgelord brother of AKI Man. Also a cousin of Pepsi Man.

So Suicide was a character created for the story mode in the TNA Wrestling Video Game. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TNA_Impact!_(video_game) In a game, he was a wrestler who got beaten up and left for dead in Mexico for winning the tna championship. The wrestler recovers and take up the name Suicide to get his revenge against the TNA roster.

And I will say, he had one of the best themes to ever come out of TNA.

Yeah, kind of reminds me of when some of the Fire Pro games tried to tackle heavy topics, just... sloppier.

I remember wanting Suicide to face Homicide Them, Jennacide, & Sabu could form a stable.

You start off as Suicide then get beaten up and left for dead after you refuse to lay down in a world title match. You get to choose whatever name and appearance after. I remember way too much about TNA Impact.

I actually have a chance to see both Kaleb with a K and Suicide at a show about an hour and a half from my house this weekend..
What are the odds of that.
