She was able to win the "match"...but then [[TemptingFate tried to slap and boss around Kong]] after the fact. [[KickTheSonOfABitch It did not end well for Jenna.]]

* CatchPhrase: As Lance Rock for the Rock 'n Rave Infection. "Who wants to get infected tonight?"

* EarlyBirdCameo: First appeared in TNA dark matches appropriately as Shadow...he had been using the gimmick to relative success on the Texas independent circuit, [[AccidentalPun so it was a coincidence.]]
* IHaveManyNames: Dallas, Lance Hoyt and Lance Rock.
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: His initial gimmick as Dallas, though unlike most examples he was still treated as a threatening powerhouse due to his size and teaming with the much smaller Kid Kash.
* PutOnABus: First to Wrestling/{{WWE}}, then to Japan, and now to Wrestling/AllEliteWrestling.
* SunglassesAtNight: Though he tended to wear them on the top of his head, suggesting he really was saving them for when they were really needed.

* RedBaron: "The X-Division Traitor" during his alliance with Team 3D (though they preferred to call him "Brother Devine"). With Team Canada, "Hotshot".

%%* BadassLongcoat: As part of AMW.
%%* CoolShades
* EyepatchOfPower: Caused by his then Ex-Tag Team partner, James Storm.
* PutOnABus: Apparently because he complained too much.
* TheBusCameBack: For an extremely short time in 2011, memorable only for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17LDYDDPpFA the Impact Zone's hilarious chanting]]. And a last one in ''Against All Odds 2022'' teaming with James Storm, The MCMG and Josh Alexander against Honor No More, as a proper send-off to his wrestling career.

%%* ArchEnemy: Matt Morgan.
* CanonName: His real first name.
* CatchPhrase: Nada es imposible, he even tattooed it on his bicep.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Flat-out vanished from TNA the month after beginning his 2015 run, due to legal issues with Wrestling/LuchaUnderground, who he was technically still under contract to at the time. Especially notable that it also killed the Beat Down Clan, which he was heavily involved in.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Hernandez was in TNA several years before his run with LAX, as a member of Wrestling/JeffJarrett's Elite Guard.
* GangBangers: LAX, [[ANaziByAnyOtherName Mexican America]], BDC, Outlaw Gz, every stable he's been a member of since 2006 has had an element of this.
%%* HiredGuns: For Immortal against Matt Morgan.
* InsaneTrollLogic: Says he was treated like a star in Mexico, which made him realize he was treated like a second class citizen in USA because of his race. This completely justifies working for old white men to injure another white man in his mind.
* LastNameBasis: Lots of variations are used in place of a first name.
* LightningBruiser: Slingshot in the ring, boarder toss out.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: By starting Mexican America he was seeking to prove Mexicans were the superior race, yes, even to all you other Latinos and Hispanics!
* RedBaron: Super Mex, complete with with [[ShirtlessScene Shirt-Ripping]].
%%* UnderwearOfPower: For a while...
* WouldHitAGirl: Kicked an LAX-America's Most Wanted Feud to a new level by border tossing Gail Kim. WWC also found out the hard way when invaded by Mexican America.

!!! Kid Kash (David Cash) 「2002–2005」 「2010」 「2011–2013」
%%* AlliterativeName
* CommutingOnABus: His last two tenures with the company were basically this.
* GreenEyedMonster: Of the jealous variety. He was obviously scared his manager Trinity was going to take his spot and his X Division Championship. These fears proved to be somewhat justified but he managed not fight her off and keep his spot.
%%* {{Jerkass}}
* NonchalantDodge: His reaction to Delirious' crazed rampages was just to stand his ground, keep his eye on him and roll out of the way when Delirious approached until the masked man calmed down.
* RedBaron: The Notorious K.I.D.
%%* SmallNameBigEgo
* SpitefulSpit: To Amazing Red, in response to his attempts to be sportsmanlike.
%%* TheTropeKid
* UngratefulBastard: Did nothing for Trinity when Raven attacked her, even though she always dropped what she was doing to come to his aid. When they were not opponents anyway.
* UnrelatedBrothers: Lance Hoyt debuted as Dallas, Kid Kash's relative.
!!! K-Krush/Ron Killings (Ronnie Aaron Killings) 「2002–2007」
See [[Wrestling/RonKillings his page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! Kenny King (Kenny Layne) 「2005–2006」 「2012–2015」 「2022-present」
%%* AlliterativeName
* ByTheHair: Threatened to pull out Christian York's dreadlocks if that's what it took to win the X-Division title. He's also plucked Eric Young's beard hairs!
* ChessMotifs: Has put the King piece on his tights.
* {{Expy}}: To Wrestling/RandyOrton in revived!Wrestling/{{Evolution}}, as the younger, most athletic and volatile member who has been [[MrFanservice deliberately used for female fanservice]] (though the latter part is coincidental). However, besides role comparison King is not as cerebral as Orton, though King is better at lying, and is much more energetic than Orton, both in promos and in the ring. Despite the similarities of the role King is ''far'' from being the golden boy of TNA to Orton's protected WWE status.
* {{Filth}}: His other lines of work as described by Eric Young, who says he can't talk about the things Kenny King has been involved with on television. As a babyface Mike and Taz would constantly make references to him being a "real life Magic Mike" (though it didn't quite catch on into his RedBaron), and his theme song was even titled "Magic Machine" as a nod to this.
* FinishingMove: Royal Flush.
* {{Jerkass}}: He will let loose with TrashTalk and/or cheap shots for the slightest perceived offense, brags on- and off-mic every chance he gets about himself and/or his cohorts, and has even shown immense disrespect towards a [[AllAmericanFace war veteran]] turned wrestler who has the [[HandicappedBadass scars to show for it]]. The last example pretty much got him pinned by Chris Melendez, but then he would add yet another by trying to rip off Melendez' [[ArtificialLimbs automail leg]] in retaliation.
* JerkJock: So why doesn't he like Chris Melendez? Because Melendez has a lot of attention, a prosthetic leg and hasn't done anything on King's level (never mind Melendez only being on TNA's active roster for a week).
* {{Jobber}}: Was one in his first run.
* LeeroyJenkins: Highlighted when he jumped on Bully Ray, who was carrying a ''really'' long pipe.
-->MVP: "Kenny, Kenny, you gotta learn...aw forget it."
* MrFanservice: And he knows it. Has worked as a Chippendale dancer in his Indy days.
* PutOnABus: Right back to Wrestling/RingOfHonor.
** TheBusCameBack: However, with ROH on hiatus, he returns to Impact Wrestling in 2022 as part of Honor No More.

* BrickJoke: In 2008, he competed in Feast or Fired and was fired. In 2013, he was scheduled to compete in Feast or Fired...and voluntarily walked out after the match began.
* CasanovaWannabe: Liked to flirt with the Knockouts, usually didn't work.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When he got the fired case in Feast or Fired, he thought he was getting a title shot.
* GenreSavvy: See BrickJoke above. He explained in his [=#IMPACT365=] video after the fact that he wasn't taking the chance after what happened last time.
%%* MaskPower
* PutOnABus: Was forced to leave in 2008 cause he got the Fired Case.
* RunningGag: [[spoiler: Part of the rather unfunny "Christopher Daniels gets the fired case every time no matter the gimmick" gag.]]
* TheBusCameBack: Resurfaced in 2013 as one of Ethan Carter III's opponents and stuck around for a bit.
* RedOniBlueOni: The Blue to Shark Boy's red which is odd considering he usually dresses in Red and Yellow whilst Shark Boy's main color is Blue.

* BadassLongcoat: Wore a long black one occasionally adorned with cross symbols.
* BadassPreacher: He's a Harlem street preacher.
* BigApplesauce: D'Angelo Dinero is billed from Harlem, even though Elijah Burke is from Florida, because god forbid you have a street preacher or a pimp that isn't from New York.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: As a heel.
%%* CarpetOfVirility
%%* TheCasanova
* CatchPhrase:
--> "Pope...is...pimping!"
--> "Pope has spoken!"
%%* CoolShades
* DemotedToExtra
* {{Expy}}: For awhile, [=TNA=] seemed to be booking him how Wrestling/{{Sting}} was booked in Wrestling/{{WCW}}. His promo style contains a good deal of Wrestling/DustyRhodes, Wrestling/RicFlair, and [[Wrestling/DwayneJohnson the Rock]] mixed in also.
** He also inspired one notable Expy of his own, in the form of none other than Wrestling/KazuchikaOkada--who, upon his return to New Japan, adopted a similarly cocky, obscenely-rich persona, complete with fake money falling from the ceiling during his entrance.
* EyePatchOfPower: Courtesy of AJ Styles.
* HesBack:
** After disappearing from TV for several months, he made his return to television on the 6/14/12 edition of Impact as a participant in the Bound For Glory Series. Unfortunately, he was eliminated early from the Series, due to injury.
** After being released from the company following his injury and doing his own thing as an independent, he returned in 2015 to fill in at commentary when Taz left and Josh Mathews needed a partner. He was later made Mathews' permanent partner.
* InspectorJavert: He really, really didn't trust Mr. Anderson. Anderson proved him wrong. Conversely, Wrestling/SamoaJoe really, really didn't trust him. He proved Joe right; they hated each other.
* {{Irony}}: Remember the 2011-2012 feud where he tried to corrupt [[Wrestling/TheDudleyBoys Devon]]'s sons? Bet he was wishing he could take that back when [[Wrestling/AcesAndEightsWrestlers someone's new crew]] beat him down about 8-9 months later in what turned out to be his final appearance as a wrestler in TNA.
* LargeHam: He's taken his preacher background to heart.
* MoneySong: A cross between a rap song and a gospel revival number. It's pretty awesome.
* MrViceGuy: He's implied to be a bit of a womanizer and can be a bit of a jerk, but when he's an honest face he's one of the purer folks [=TNA=] has. It helps that his real personality veers more toward the "honest face" bit.
* TheNicknamer: As a commentator, is pretty fond of testing out {{Red Baron}}s on certain talents. So far the two that have stuck are the Bearded Terror for Eric Young (though World Class Maniac is still more prevalent) and the Tenth Wonder of the World for [[Wrestling/KiaStevens Awesome Kong]].
%%* PecFlex
* PutOnABus: His contract expired while he was still injured.
* RapidFireFisticuffs: As a former boxer, when the Pope punches you, he punches you really, really fast.

* SmugSnake: Heel, he'll go into the ring and forgive you for all your transgressions with one of the biggest, phoniest grins ever.

* AdaptationalWimp: In the video game's story mode, Suicide starts by winning the World Heavyweight Championship, and after his beatdown from LAX and return under the player's created persona, he goes on to win the World Tag Team titles with Eric Young, then the X Division title before finally winning the World Heavyweight title again at the end. As an actual wrestler, Suicide is a 2-time X Division Champion, but compared to completing a TNA Triple Crown, that's still a step down.
* BuildingSwing: The idea was there, at least, in his first couple appearances, where he swung in on a rope to attack the Motor City Machine Guns.
* BrassBalls: The character is all about being willing to risk himself to get a victory, even moreso than other X-Division wrestlers.
%%* ChestInsignia
* CombinationAttack: An unintentional one against with Low Ki against DJ Z when Manik had the latter in a reverse Indian death lock while the former was kicking him in the chest. Manik eventually grabbed Low Ki and gave him a northern lights suplex, while DJ Z was still locked up.
* CoolMask: Though James Storm doesn't like or understand why he keeps wearing a mask after his face and identity have been revealed, he decides Manik can stay masked, so long as it's one of his choosing.
%%* DarkAgeOfSupernames
* DarkIsNotEvil: Surprisingly, he's never willingly been a heel. The closest came when he was kidnapped and presumably brainwashed into joining The Revolution.
* DistressedDude: No one seemed too concerned when James Storm and Sanada kidnapped him.
* GroinAttack: One of Suicide's signature attack is smashing his opponent's forehead against the second turnbuckle, or when someone is interfering his match, he would smash his opponent's forehead against the other man's nuts. This does not result in DQ because the interfering party is not officially in the match, therefore a low blow against them is not prohibited.
%%* MaskedLuchador
%%* LatexSpaceSuit
%%* MadeOfIron
* NinetiesAntiHero: A *very* late-to-the-party one, as he debuted in 2008. But with his uber-edgy name, skull motif, and brooding tendencies (at least when he *does* speak), he would've fit right in on the pages of an early Image Comics issue.
* OneManArmy: Jay Lethal, Consequences Creed and The Motor City Machine Guns all worked together to beat him and still could not do it.
* PartsUnknown: Was billed from there.
* PutOnABus: Until they find someone else to portray him, presumably.
* TheBusCameBack: In May 2013.
*** Back on the bus in early 2016 as TNA let TJ Perkins' contract run out.
*** Taken out of mothballs for a One Night Only PPV several months after Perkins' departure, then again later in the year.
* RefugeeFromTVLand: Is supposedly an original character from a TNA video game brought to life. His name change, his portrayal by several different wrestlers before Perkins was revealed as the "official" him, and James Storm's desire to give him a makeover, all make more sense when we remember he's basically a create-a-wrestler. Reverted to this and the original Suicide gimmick after Perkins' departure.
%%* RuleOfCool
%%* StealthHiBye
* SuddenlyVoiced: Thanks to James Storm, so he can have another mouthpiece for his "Revolution". Seemingly dropped upon Perkins' departure, as Manik was reverted back to Suicide.
* YouLookFamiliar: Suicide has interacted with wrestlers who previously portrayed him multiple times, including Christopher Daniels having to prove he wasn't behind the mask once Frankie Kazarian returned to the role and tag-teaming with TJ Perkins, who suited up as Manik again for the occasion.
!!! Cody Deaner/Deaner (Christopher Gray) 「2009」 「2018–present」
* BattleCouple: With ODB in his first run with TNA.
* TheBusCameBack: Returned to the promotion in 2018, albeit making occasional appearances before rejoining full time in March 2019, which also made the official debut of Cousin Jake.
* DeepSouth: His previous gimmick was a Canadian version of the trope before joining VBD.
* FaceHeelTurn: Betrayed Cousin Jake (later rechristened as Jake Something) and joined Violent by Design.
* KlingonPromotion: Became the new leader of Violent by Design (renamed The Design) [[spoiler: after killing Eric Young as a way to "Eliminate the sickness"]].
* OnlyOneName: After joining VBD, he now refers himself as Deaner.
* PowerStable: Violent by Design, led by Eric Young, and later, himself, rechristening it The Design.
* TagTeam: Previously with Cousin Jake in his current run, as The Deaners.
!!! Rob Terry/The Freak/Robbie T (Robert Terry) 「2009–2015」

%% Please separate these tropes.
* CoolMask: As part of the Menagerie, he wears a steel mask not dissimilar to one Kane used to wear.
%%* TheGiant
* MusclesAreMeaningful: Often cited as the worst member of the TNA roster, who should have been let go long ago. Kept on to play "enforcer with big muscles" to a variety of stables (The British Invasion, World Elite, The Shore, and now The Menagerie), and seemingly constantly believeable through all of that for nearly six years.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted with his one-time bro Robbie E.
** Wrestling/RobVanDam and [[Wrestling/BobbyRoode Robert Roode]] were both on the roster at the time, making for a total of four Roberts on the roster.
* RedBaron: The Freak.
** Robbie T.
* UnderwearOfPower: Though the freak is the circus strongman, making this less odd on him than even the other wrestlers.
!!! Tomko (Travis David Tomko) 「2006–2008」 「2010」
* BaldOfEvil: Though veered occasionally into the good side territory before his HeelFaceDoorSlam.
* BodyguardBetrayal: Against Christian in 2008. Didn't kill him, of course, as this is wrestling, but cost him his (second-to-)last ever TNA world title shot.
* TheComicallySerious: To Christian and AJ.
* DudeWheresMyRespect:
** Betrayed Christian in 2008 because Christian had promised that he'd become a big time star if he stuck with him yet it wasn't happening fast enough for his liking so he decided to take his chances with BigBad Kurt Angle.
** Attacked AJ for weeks in late 2009-early 2010 after having seemingly patched up their alliance off-screen because AJ [[DisproportionateRetribution didn't return a couple of phone calls]] after winning the title.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: When Robert Roode [[BadBoss berated his assistant at the time]] Traci Brooks for [[GreenEyedMonster supporting Kazarian]], claiming that [[StayInTheKitchen he owned her]], Tomko got right in Roode's face and shoved him down across the ring. This is despite the fact that Tomko had just beaten Kaz in a match, and Roode was at that point an occasional ally of Christian's Coalition, of which Tomko was a member. Ms. Brooks and the audience were very pleased with Tomko as he walked away.
** This only made it more jarring when he went after Karen Angle as part of his job as Kurt's SociopathicSoldier.
* NoodleIncident: His apparent past with Abyss as a prison guard.
* PutOnABus: In summer 2008, though it did stop once as he took part in a challenge Kevin Nash had set up for Samoa Joe.
* TheBusCameBack: For a feud with AJ Styles at the end of 2009, which was cut short when Hogan and co. arrived. He was soon put back on the bus for good.
* TheQuietOne: He could talk, but his voice was low and had a drawl, plus he's better at being scary-looking, so his teammates tended to do more of the talking.
* RedBaron: The "Man of Principles". He was mostly called this backstage, however, since on-screen he generally worked as a heel.
* RedOniBlueOni: Often had to calm his Coalition teammates down when they were in rages (mostly Christian).
* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: Prior to betraying Christian and AJ, Tomko was becoming incredibly popular with the fans. After joining Kurt Angle to become a bigger star, his stock {{iron|y}}ically plummeted.
* SociopathicSoldier: For Kurt Angle after turning on AJ Styles.
* StraightMan: Made an art form of shaking his head at some of the things his allies said or did (mostly AJ).
* TheStoic: Often stood behind Kurt or Christian and/or beside AJ with his arms either folded or rested on his hips, eyeing the audience or whoever their enemies were like his next prey.
* TattooedCrook: Known for his tribal back and shoulder tattoos as much as anything else appearance-wise.
* TookALevelInJerkass: He cemented his place among Kurt's collective of "[[CardCarryingVillain bad guys]]" with such acts as taking pride in bloodying AJ, helping shoot Christian through a glass table, and harassing Karen on her own talk show.
%%* UnderwearOfPower
!!! Douglas Williams (Douglas Durdle) 「2008」 「2010–2013」 「2014」
* TheAce: He can match Wrestling/AJStyles move for move and then get the better of him, he qualifies.
* {{Archenemy}}: The X-Division, who he [[strike:insinuates]] states loudly is a league of {{Spot Monkey}}s.
* ForeignWrestlingHeel: Fits this trope much better than Desmond as he actively hates American style aerial wrestling, as opposed to his European style.
* {{Hypocrite}}: As much as he talks about the glory of [[GoodOldFisticuffs ground and pound wrestling]], he's started using a Tornado DDT.
** Justified in that he didn't use the X-Division flyers' own medicine on them until that one point in the match where it became a finishing blow.
* PutOnABus: Hasn't been appearing that often very much anymore as he's been working and training wrestlers in OVW as he's a trainer there now.
** Officially removed from the TNA roster in June 2013.
* SuplexFinisher: Chaos Theory, which is a roll-through into a German Suplex.

%%* FaceHeelTurn: On Matt Morgan.
* GeniusBruiser: In addition to being very big and strong, he totally pwned Jarrett at submission grappling.
* GoodIsNotNice: As a {{face}} Crimson spends a lot of time beating people up.
* IronicEcho: Shortly after his debut, he says 'They are coming', right after taking out Abyss with his own weapon. Those are the very same words Abyss said preceeding the arrival of Immortal, only this time Red is refering to Fortune performing a collective HeelFaceTurn.
* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: He was the first person that terrorized Immortal, he lodged Abyss's own weapon into his back.
%%* LightningBruiser
* MeaningfulName: Crimson has red hair.

See [[Wrestling/ChavoGuerreroJr his page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! Gunner (Chad Lail) 「2010–2012」 「2013–2015」
* AscendedExtra: Was first seen as a part of a duo of security guards around the Impact Zone, until the heel Immortal stable decided to use them more and more in the ring. Gunner stuck around, his character transitioned into a proper wrestler and he even became Wrestling/RicFlair's last TNA protégé.
* BloodKnight: One thing you can't question is what Gunner would be willing to do when he's dedicated himself to a cause, whether that be winning championships, defending a group, or destroying a hated enemy.
* TheBrute: For Immortal.
* CorruptCop: Became this in his initial run as a security guard thanks to the Hogan and Bischoff takeover.
* HardHead: He shrugged off having a cage door slammed into it by James Storm.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Gunner's the one who decided to take Samuel Shaw out of the insane asylum for a second chance. Shaw ended up betraying Gunner at Brittany's urging.
* PutOnABus: First to OVW for most of the year after Immortal. Then again in 2015 when creative had nothing for him after his feud with Samuel Shaw.
* TheBusCameBack: The first one did, anyway, when he returned before Slammiversary 2013 as James Storm's partner.
* UnderwearOfPower: After ditching the security gig.
!!! [[Wrestling/MattHardy ("Broken") Matt Hardy]] (Matthew Moore Hardy) 「2011」 「2014–2017」
See [[Wrestling/MattHardy his page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! DJ Zema Ion (Michael Paris) 「2011–present」
* DumbassDJ: Was this for the Bro-Mans.
* {{Jerkass}}: Showed no remorse over his actions during his heel run. To note, said actions include [[RealLifeWritesThePlot paralyzing Jesse Sorensen from the neck down]] and "[[{{Kayfabe}} taking out]]" the entire X-Division.
* ItsAllAboutMe: As a heel.
%%* NotInTheFace
* RedBaron: That Yung Go-Hard.
!!! Rampage Jackson (Quinton Ramone Jackson) 「2013」
* AbortedArc: Aside from the initial confrontation and agreement to a future match with Kurt Angle, the 2013 rivalry and buildup to his [[UsefulNotes/MixedMartialArts Bellator MMA]] fight with Tito Ortiz was tied into the Aces & Eights vs. Main Event Mafia feud via Ortiz' betrayal after Jackson joined the Mafia. No payoff ever came of either angle because…
** RealLifeWritesThePlot: Bellator had him and Tito Ortiz pulled from TNA programming so they wouldn't get injured prior to their fight and be forced to cancel. [[YouCantFightFate Didn't work out so well as far as Tito goes.]]
* TheDreaded: If Tito's had that reputation ahead of time, then this guy definitely did.
* {{Friendly|Enemy}} EnemyMine: His first major storyline with the company saw him become one of intended future rival Kurt Angle's Main Event Mafia brothers to combat the Aces & Eights.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Got in Kurt Angle's face upon his debut.
* PutOnABus: Noteable in that he put himself on the bus after the AbortedArc and RealLifeWritesThePlot examples above, because he disagreed with how management at the time was running things.
%%* ScaryBlackMan
* SharpDressedMan: As a member of the Main Event Mafia, though he had it in a military fatigue design as part of his "Street Soldier" image.
%%* TrashTalk: Actually pretty good at it.
* TheUnfought: Never actually got into a match. See AbortedArc and RealLifeWritesThePlot above.
!!! Jackson James/Garett Bischoff (Garett Bischoff) 「2010–2013」
%%* DeceptiveDisciple: To Kurt Angle.
* EasilyDistractedReferee: [[ObfuscatingStupidity Whenever Immortal needed it]].
* FragileSpeedster: Aside from his initial push, he was usually the fall guy in tag team matches and stable feuds.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: As a referee under the name "Jackson James". Made ridiculous mistakes (in Immortal's favour, of course) and people assumed it was just because he was new to the refereeing business.
* SmugSnake: Has inherited his father's smugness ever since he was revealed as a member of Aces & Eights.
* WrestlingFamily: His father is Wrestling/EricBischoff.
!!! Orlando Jordan (Orlando Mason Jordan) 「2010–2011」
* BlackComedyRape: Or maybe just really {{Narm}}y RapeAsDrama.
%%* DepravedBisexual: [[LowestCommonDenominator The worst of both worlds]].
%%* PutOnABus
%%* ScaryBlackMan
* WhereDaWhiteWomenAt: Subverted. His victims were pretty exclusively white, but only because 95% of Impact is white at any given period. The Pope, one of TNA's few black men in recent years, was actually one of his most frequent targets.
!!! Mike Knoxx/Knux (Michael Hettinga) 「2012–2015」
%%* BaldOfEvil.
* TheBrute: One of several with Aces & Eights.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: The name Knux was presented as a clubhouse nickname created by Wrestling/{{Aces And Eights|Wrestlers}}.
* WritingAroundTrademarks: This was done so TNA wouldn't have to keep referencing his original name, Mike Knox(x). Said original name has been relegated to CanonName status at best since.
* HeelFaceTurn / CharacterDevelopment: Started as a member of the heelish Wrestling/{{Aces And Eights|Wrestlers}}, becomes the founder of The Menagerie as a babyface. There was even a backstory surrounding this change which made perfect sense.
* LightningBruiser: For a man of his size and girth, Knux is extremely athletic. He even managed to impress Austin Aries when they squared off one-on-one a couple years after the armbreaking.
* MiseryBuildsCharacter: Part of his motivation for forming the stable. The other is their need to raise money for their carnival back home.
* RedBaron: Was briefly known as the Armbreaker while masked during Aces & Eights, shortly after having broken Wrestling/AustinAries' arm.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS / XtremeKoolLetterz: His character's original surname "Knox" had a second X added to it before coming to TNA.
* WrestlingDoesntPay: Subverted with the Menagerie. They're a wrestling traveling circus…but it's the ''wrestling'' part that pays for the ''circus'' part.

!!! Robbie E (Rob Strauss) 「2010–2017」
%%* AnimeHair
%%* CoolShades
%%* HotBlooded
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Acts like the cast of ''Series/JerseyShore''.
* TheArtifact: Now that Jersey Shore's been canceled. But that isn't important now, as he's fit rather snugly well in as a legit competitor and has become the resident occasionally-[[LethalJokeCharacter Lethal]] JokeCharacter.
* LethalJokeCharacter: That Jersey Shore parody who's long outstayed both the show itself and his welcome? He's only a TNA heavyweight title reign away from being only the ''fifth Grand Slam champion'' in TNA history. And just prior to the Destination America relaunch he actually started talking about it—though since then he's been utterly worfed by Wrestling/{{Brooke|Adams}}.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Usually a {{Jobber}}, Robbie has won the X Division title, the Television title, defeated Jeff Hardy (via countout), and is now one-half of a damn good Tag Team Championship duo… with fellow JokeCharacter Jessie Godderz.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted with his one-time bro Robbie T, aka Rob Terry.
%%* RealMenWearPink: As part of the [=BroMans=].
%%* SmallNameBigEgo: Heel.

!!! Samuel "Sam" Shaw 「2010」 「2012–2015」 「2017」
* AscendedExtra: His 2010 appearances included such one-shot roles as a masked Hardcore Justice assailant named Lupus and an unknown member of Wrestling/JeffJarrett's entourage back when Jarrett was pretending to be an MMA fighter.
* DontYouDarePityMe: All Brittany had to say to turn Samuel Shaw against Gunner was that Gunner saw Shaw not as a friend, but as a charity case.
* DrivenToSuicide: Tried to kill himself after Hemme initially rejected his advances. Which later lead to a straightjacket being put on him.
* GreenEyedMonster: After Christy Hemme decided they should keep things professional, he would become insanely jealous at any man that looked at or talked to her. This got him in serious trouble with Mr. Anderson, who stood up for Hemme and then conspired with her to get him committed to a mental hospital.
* IncestSubtext: It was heavily implied between him and his mother. His mother is a creepy redheaded woman named Christy, thus also implying that was why he was obsessed with Hemme.
* IrritationIsTheSincerestFormOfFlattery: From wearing Gunner's field uniform to getting tattoos in imitation of Gunner's? Gunner asked him if he ever tried being himself, only for Shaw to accuse him of not caring enough.
* RedBaron: The Creepy Bastard.
%%* StalkerWithACrush: To Christy Hemme.
* ThreeMonthRule: When he first met Christy Hemme he lived in his own apartment, but after he started feuding with Mr. Anderson he lived in his mother's house. Became really glaring when promo vignettes involving Shaw's storylines actually showed scenes from both locations.
* UngratefulBastard: Gunner got him out of the empty white room and straitjacket, giving him a second chance at life. Then he thanked Gunner by turning on him as soon as Brittany got into his ear about Gunner viewing him as a "charity case". This trope applies to both Shaw himself and to Brittany, who would've never had the chance to get with him were it not for what Gunner did.
!!! Jesse Sorensen (Jessy Ryan Sorensen) 「2011–2013」
* GameBreakingInjury: Suffered a injury at Against All Odds to Zema Ion that put him on the shelf for the better part of a year. He quit active wrestling so he wouldn't be at risk again, and started working backstage.
* JerkJock: Averted despite being a former High School QB and often seen carrying a football around, he's one of the nicer guys around.
* PutOnABus: Was moved backstage, he was officially removed from the TNA roster in June 2013. Then was let go from TNA not long after due to budget cost.

* FightingIrish: In his return as Aiden O'Shea.
* FinishingMove: The Boomstick, a simple lariat, which can appear more effective depending on [[TheatricsOfPain who sells it]].
** Could also be a case of NameOfPower.
* PutOnABus: To Japan, and apparently left there.
* TheBusCameBack: As Aiden O'Shea.
** And then bussed back out again as he quietly left with Billy Corgan.
!!! Bram (Thomas Latimer) 「2014–2017」
* ArchEnemy: First Abyss, then [[WeUsedToBeFriends Magnus]], and now TNA history. Eventually acknowledged that he {{hates everyone|Equally}}.
%%* AxCrazy
%%* BloodKnight
* ButForMeItWasTuesday: How he and the reinvigorated Magnus apparently view Monster's Ball matches. Just ask [[Wrestling/JeffHardy Willow]] and Abyss.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: After taking a beating from Decay for rejecting Rosemary (again), he turned up months later having cleaned himself up and joined forces with James Storm and Kingston in the Death Crew Council.
* ChewingTheScenery: Good God, when he falls into a rage…
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder via HairTriggerTemper: His claim to hate everyone isn't without merit, as he will end an alliance as quickly as it began in response to some slight or offense.
** When Magnus came through the back door and took a Feast or Fired briefcase that Bram had his hands on, he declared Magnus his enemy and even when the case he got turned out to be for the tag titles he betrayed Magnus rather than accept their friendship.
** When Eric Young tried to leave the company and take the TNA King of the Mountain title with him, Bram instantly deemed Young a coward and ended their alliance, challenging and beating EY for the title to send him out of TNA empty-handed.
** He and Eddie Kingston lost their temper with James Storm as soon as The Cowboy started making singles entrances again, leading very shortly to the end of the Death Crew Council.
* ContinuityNod: Eventually the DCC went after Decay, with Bram revealing he hadn't forgotten what Decay did to him and in fact joined DCC for the opportunity to get revenge.
* DareToBeBadass: The initial phase of his storyline with Magnus was all about him delivering a heel version of this as a response to Magnus' BadassDecay since becoming Dixie's champion.
* DisproportionateRetribution / RevengeBeforeReason: Got so upset with best mate Magnus swiping the Feast or Fired briefcase he was close to getting[[note]]with only Gunner's pull in his way until Magnus came in with a Tower of Doom spot[[/note]] that even when the case turned out to be for a tag team title shot and Magnus assured Bram he wanted him as his partner, Bram tried to take him out and end his career for it.
* GarbageWrestler: The self proclaimed "King of Hardcore".
* GreenEyedMonster / TheResenter: Mickie called him out as this, saying that the truth behind his reasoning for his betrayal of Magnus is that Bram is secretly jealous because Magnus has more to show for himself as a man than Bram ever will. Even if she's wrong, his palpable rage and envy over Magnus for taking an opportunity and getting the briefcase he thought was his plants him firmly into this trope.
* HatesEveryoneEqually: Has admitted that he hates absolutely everyone. This explains a lot of things, including the below…
* HeelFaceTurn: In 2016 he would challenge and defeat then-ally Eric Young for the King of the Mountain title to stop Young from taking the title with him on his leave from TNA.
* IrrationalHatred: Towards Magnus. You're his best mate, you better not get anything for yourself in life—like a family, or responsibilities outside of drunken bar fighting escapades, or bragging rights to an opportunity that benefits you both.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Outright hates Magnus' fiancée Wrestling/MickieJames, blaming her along with her and Magnus' son for Magnus turning "soft" instead of remaining the sadistic brute of their childhood days like he did. He even captured her and threatened to assault her in order to force Magnus to kiss his feet.
* UnreliableNarrator: If Magnus' entire career in TNA is any indication, he'd grown out of the "ultra-violent" phase kayfabe-wise [[BlatantLies since before he started in the company, let alone met Mickie]], so any claim that she's responsible for this falls on deaf ears to continuity.
* PowerTrio: Death Crew Council with Wrestling/JamesStorm and [[Wrestling/EddieKingston Kingston]] in late 2016.
* RedBaron: Because way too many super-violent wrestlers like to call themselves the King of Hardcore, Josh and Pope have traded that in for more unique nicknames for Bram such as the Chesterfield Plague, the Human Hate Machine, and the Human Nightmare.
* VillainTeamUp: With Eric Young in 2015-16. It ended in Bram's HeelFaceTurn.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: Him and Magnus big time as of 2015.
* WouldHitAGirl: Has proven that he absolutely hates the mother of his ex-best friend's child and is perfectly willing to attack her in order to get over on Magnus.
* WrestlingFamily: Was once married to Wrestling/{{Charlotte}}, the daughter of Wrestling/RicFlair.

!!! Trevor Lee (Trevor Caddell) 「2015–2018」
* BloodKnight: Wrestles a somewhat roughhousing style and has been described as a loner who lives to train and wrestle.
* BoringButPractical: {{Subverted|Trope}} on the boring part, as he's a good enough athlete to get at least one impressive attack in any given match, but his focus is far more on battering his opponent than on showing off.
* CanonImmigrant: A carryover from Jeff Jarrett's failed Global Force Wrestling invasion of 2015, he impressed TNA management enough for them to bring him back in for additional work.
* EvilMentor: He and Everett have [[spoiler: in Everett's case, HAD]] one in Gregory Shane Helms.
* JackOfAllStats: He's got a decent high flying game, an aggressive brawling streak, explosive quickness, deceptive strength—yep, he qualifies.
* LonersAreFreaks: Not to the extent that hate machines or carnival horrors are, given that [[Wrestling/GregoryHelms Gregory Shane Helms]] is willing to mentor him, but he doesn't care much about socializing and hanging out with people and he has a crude, caveman-ish appearance and style. In this business, though, it's not to his detriment.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Despite looking like a skinny caveman he is capable of doing power moves to guys bigger than he is. If you're smaller than him, prepare to be manhandled.
* RedBaron: The Carolina Caveman, The Technical Savage.
* WildHair: The bun in the back is the only evidence of any grooming or maintenance of either his mane or beard.

* CombatPragmatist: Despite his insistence on being a "Professional" wrestler, he tends to do illegal maneuvers in the ring.
* EvilMentor: To Sam Beale, before the latter turned {{Face}}. Now serves as one to the Good Hands.
* GuestFighter: In his first run, he represented Jeff Jarrett's ''Global Force Wrestling''.
* RedBaron: "The ''Most Professional'' Wrestler".

* AscendedExtra: Made a few appearances as Parks on the One Night Only shows before signing on and debuting as Sutter.
%%* BaldOfEvil: with his 2018 FaceHeelTurn.
* CoolTeacher: Briefly became this to Allie when she started getting in the ring, until her Lady Squad superiors made sure to nip it in the bud before it could achieve the requisite RelationshipUpgrade. Instead they've stuck Braxton as the unwilling boyfriend of Laurel Van Ness.
* DeadpanSnarker: Part of his "No BS" personality is that when a heel is saying or doing something delusional or absurd, he won't hesitate to say so.
* FunWithAcronyms: '''B'''raxton '''S'''utter, though it's been used to emphasize that his character is about "[[InvertedTrope No BS]]".
* HenpeckedHusband: Was this to Laurel Van Ness, largely because he didn't even want to ''be'' her boyfriend but had to go along with it [[{{Blackmail}} so Maria Kanellis wouldn't destroy Allie's career]].
* SadisticChoice: Break Allie's heart by dating one of her evil superiors, or watch said superiors kill her career before it can get going. What to do, what to do…? Eventually sided with Allie.
* WouldntHitAGirl: Despite his loyalty to Allie, he won't even brush past Maria and her friends when they try to keep him away from her.
!!! Davey Richards (Wesley David Richards) 「2014–2017」
* AnimalMotifs: Wolves, shared with his former partner Eddie Edwards and, once she became part of his act, his then-wife Angelina Love.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Was the main contributor to the darkness of the Wolves as a duo.
* FaceHeelTurn: He and Angelina betrayed Eddie and Alisha by attacking them to cost Eddie his chance to get back the TNA World Heavyweight Championship from Lashley, feeling as though Eddie didn't do enough to keep in touch with Davey while he was injured.
* GoodIsNotNice: Even as a babyface, his promos and facial expressions combined with the wolf motif makes him comes off as a vicious warrior with a purpose.
* LargeHam: Very capable of this when speaking. This and Eddie's awkwardness on the mic is why he usually handled the promo department.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Wanted his last feud before he [[PutOnABus took off from wrestling]] to be with his best friend.
* SickeninglySweethearts: With Angelina Love, before both left the company.
!!! The Great Sanada (Seiya Sanada) 「2014–2015」
* TheAce: Can do fast, high flying stuff as well as various suplexes, including bridging {{suplex finisher}}s, and he even has a submission finish.
** BrokenAce: Has become this due to interpreting Wrestling/TheGreatMuta's endorsement as great pressure, causing him to eventually turn against Muta after a losing streak. Wrestling/JamesStorm didn't do him any favors by piling on and calling both him and Muta losers constantly.
* AntiVillain: As a {{heel}}, he's not really a bad person, he just found a string of bad luck, lost his X-Division title for the first time since coming to TNA, and got broken down by an opportunistic outlaw looking to start a revolution.
* BrokenPedestal: Views Wrestling/TheGreatMuta this way after Wrestling/JamesStorm's {{breaking speech}}es finally got to him, causing him to make a FaceHeelTurn by betraying his own mentor. {{Subverted|Trope}} as there's no evidence that Sanada's short string of losses ever caused Muta to look at him differently. The story mainly portrays Muta's encouragement and endorsement of Sanada as giving him undue pressure to succeed, though this seems to reflect Sanada's slowly-crumbling mindset about it more than anything else.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Won the X-Division Championship from Wrestling/AustinAries even before his TNA debut, then at said debut had an amazing PPV six-man tag with Wrestling/TheGreatMuta and fellow Wrestle-1 star Yasu Nakanoue against Bad Influence and Chris Sabin where he nailed his precision moonsault to pin Wrestling/ChristopherDaniels.

* PutOnABus: And took the Wrestle-1 partnership with him, as it ended at the same time.
%%* UngratefulBastard: Towards Muta.
!!! Mahabali Shera/Khoya (Amanpreet Singh) 「2014–present」
%%* TheBrute: Of the Revolution.
* CanonImmigrant: A carryover from one-season sister promotion Ring Ka King.
* InitiationCeremony: Whatever it was it resulted in his being renamed Khoya.
* MeaningfulRename: Khoya means "lost", representing his pre-Storm lack of identity in TNA. Commentators have played up how this constitutes disrespect to his culture on the part of Storm.
* TheDogBitesBack: Eventually got enough of Wrestling/JamesStorm's abuse for losing matches and decided to stand up and fight back against him. This became the undoing of Storm's Revolution, since Manik was his friend and Abyss slowly came to see how ridiculous Storm's antics were getting.
!!! Crazzy Steve (Steve Scott) 「2014–2017」 「2020-present」
* AbhorrentAdmirer: To any attractive Knockouts in the opposing corner from his—usually Wrestling/TheBeautifulPeople. It's been PlayedForLaughs.
%%* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}
* DepravedBisexual: Implied in Decay, where he is entirely overly affectionate with both Rosemary and Abyss.
* EvilLaugh: Until 2016, he never spoke, only laughed.
* FaceHeelTurn: Happened off-screen when he reconnected with Rosemary, who in truth has been his friend for nearly a decade.[[note]]Discussed during a kayfabe interview with members of the [=TNAsylum=] fan column website.[[/note]]
* HandicappedBadass: He's legally blind.
* HiddenDepths: When he actually gets to wrestling instead of fooling around with people he can be pretty potent. No longer hidden as of Decay.
* NonIronicClown: The Menagerie was accompanied by two, huge, scary clowns. Steve's about as non threatening as a wrestler can be though, provided you don't simply have an inherent fear of clowns like one of the Bro-mans.
* MonsterClown: Turned into this as part of Decay with Rosemary and Abyss.
* ShoutOut: As part of Decay, he had a bright red cross as part of his makeup and continually laughed, making him resemble one of [[ComicBook/{{Crossed}} the Crossed.]]
!!! Ultimate Tiger/Tigre Uno (real name unknown) 「2014–2016」
%%* AnimalMotifs: Tiger, fairly obviously.
* BridalCarry: Carries Gail Kim this way back into the ring after landing a crossbody on her in their match during the World Title Series.
%%* CoolMask: With ears and teeth.
* {{Expy}}: A cheapened example that TNA hasn't capitalized on even while pushing him, but as a veteran of Dragon Door Project with a tiger gimmick, he's automatically one to both [[Wrestling/SatoruSayama Tiger Mask]] and Wrestling/UltimoDragon.
* FragileSpeedster: Most of his arsenal involves flying and flipping around, but he's positively tiny.
* PutOnABus: A weird case of it where he wasn't even informed he was getting on the bus in the first place and only found out close to a year afterward.
* SecretIdentity: Like many a Mexican MaskedLuchador before him.
* WouldntHitAGirl: At first played straight during his match with Gail Kim, where he is seen pleading with the crowd for the first few minutes of their match. He eventually allows himself to fight back and land a few moves on her, even picking up the win.

!!! Joe Hendry (Joseph Samuel Hendry) 「2018」 「2022–present」

* DoItYourselfThemeTune: He provides the vocals of his entrance themes.

* DanceBattler: He dances his way up to the ring and performs a few moves in it, including a split.
* FinishingMove: A standing 450 splash.
* HappilyMarried: To Su Yung. Downplayed as we don't see both Swann and Yung together in Impact, through.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Willie Mack.
* TenMinuteRetirement: He temporarily retired from wrestling when the doctors found out that he suffered a knee injury in ''Slammiversary 2020'' at the hands of Eric Young with a steel chair. It took weeks to have his knee recovered and having him medically cleared to compete so Scott D'Amore approves him for the championship match. This didn't stop Eric Young from attacking Swann constantly in the injured knee until he wins the Impact World Heavyweight Championship at ''Bound for Glory 2020''.
!!! Willie Mack 「2018–2022」
* {{Acrofatic}}: HOLY CRAP, is he ever! We're talking about a guy with the looks and physique of the Junkyard Dog and the skills and speed of Shawn Michaels! The guy can use the ropes as well as any luchador and yet can still hit hard as well.
* FinishingMove: A stunner.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Rich Swann.
* PutOnABus: Left Impact Wrestling in 2022 when his contract got expired.
* LightningBruiser: Ridiculously fast and agile for his weight, but he STILL has that weight to throw around.
!!! Josh Alexander (Joshua Lemay) 「2018–present」
* TheAce: As the current top face of Impact Wrestling, he's a full package who can do all the wrestling styles: Technical, High Flyer, Brawler and Powerhouse.
* CanadaEh: He's from Toronto, Ontario.
* DefeatingTheUndefeatable: Managed to put an end to Joe Doering's undefeated streak in ''Against All Odds 2022'' and defending the Impact World Championship at the same time.
* {{Expy}}: Of Wrestling/KurtAngle, given that both have competed in X-Division matches and have the same signature ankle lock submission move.
* FinishingMove: C4 Spike, a sitout lifting double underhook facebuster.
* HeelFaceTurn: After his former partner Ethan Page died against the former's own alter ego The Karate Man (but Page got better after joining AEW), he turns Face for the first time in his career as a singles competitor.
* PapaWolf: Very protective of his son Jett when Moose arrived to his house and threatened both Jett and the mother of his, Jade Chung.
* RedBaron: "The Walking Weapon"
* RedIsHeroic: Wears red in his wrestling gears, and is on the good guys' side.
** RedIsViolent: Back when he was a Heel.
* SignatureHeadgear: Wears a protective amateur wrestling headgear. He first used it when he was diagnosed with Cauliflower ear in 2013, but even when his ear is fixed, he still uses it to symbolize his Canadian Strong Style of wrestling.
* TagTeam: Previously with Ethan Page in The North.
* TakeThat: In the March 10, 2022 episode of Impact Wrestling, he made a harsh critique to Matt Taven for the latter's lackluster run as the ROH World Heavyweight Champion. No lies detected for Josh, that's for sure!
* WearingAFlagOnYourHead: His wrestling gear incorporates the maple leaf. It's logical, considering his nationality.
!!! Karl Anderson (Chad Allegra) 「2020-present」
See [[Wrestling/KarlAnderson his page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! Black Taurus 「2019」 「2021-present」
* AnimalMotifs: He's a Minotaur themed wrestler.

!!! Sam Beale (Samuel Beale) 「2021」
* TheApprentice: Is being assigned as this by Brian Myers on how to become a "Most Professional Wrestler" like his mentor.
* FinishingMove: A lariat called ''Budget Cut'', as a reference to WWE's way to fire its wrestlers. The way it's named is unfortunately [[DudeNotFunny not funny]], to say at least.
* HeelFaceTurn: Eventually, he had enough of Myers' cheating ways and decides to turn against him.
!!! W. Morrissey (William Morrissey) 「2021-2022」
See [[Wrestling/EnzoAndCass this page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! Steve Maclin (Steven Kupryk) 「2021–present」
* AntiHero: As a {{Tweener}}, he's not a quintessential role model, but he's fighting for what's right.

* TheAlcoholic: He's first shown drinking a beer during his pre-debut vignettes.
* {{Catchphrase}}: "Tag'em, bag'em and mayhem for all!"
* TheCynic: Maclin is very jaded and doesn't trust anyone surrounding him. Justified as he was a war veteran before becoming a wrestler.
* {{Eagleland}}: As a Heel, he represents The Boorish side. As a Tweener, he's a Mixed Example, as his ruthless side from his Heel days still remains.
* HeelFaceTurn: Debuted as a Heel, until Honor No More invades Impact Wrestling. At first, they blamed him for the attacks on the roster in backstage, but when Eddie Edwards is revealed to be the attacker and siding with Honor No More, Maclin decides to fight for Team Impact as a {{Tweener}}.
* FaceHeelTurn: However, this change doesn't last long as of the March 10, 2022 episode of Impact when he attacked Rhyno with Eddie Edwards' kendo stick and reverts himself back as a Heel.
* OfficialCouple: Currently married to fellow Impact castmate Deonna Purrazzo.
* SkeletonMotif: His entrance video, jackets and wrestling gear contain skull imagery for a good measure.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With Moose. They only team up just to make Sami Callihan's life miserable, but otherwise they don't agree with each other during their alliance.
!!! Matthew Rehwoldt (Matthew Thomas Rehwoldt) 「2021–present」
* CombatCommentator: Currently assumes the role of Color Commentator in the place of D'Lo Brown.
* LargeHam: Delivers enough hammy speeches to Shakespearian levels.
* PlatonicLifePartners: With Deonna Purrazzo during their intergender tag team matches.
* RedBaron: "The Drama King".
!!! Mike Bailey (Émile Baillargeon-Laberge) 「2022–present」
* CanadaEh: From Laval, UsefulNotes/{{Quebec}}. Subverted in that he's not a FrenchJerk, as he's competing as a {{Face}}.
* EightiesHair: Spots a nostalgic mullet fitting from that period in the current age of wrestling, no less.
* FinishingMove: ''Ultima Weapon'', a Shooting Star double knee drop.
* FriendlyRivalry: With fellow X-Division wrestler Trey Miguel. Averted when the latter turned Heel. Later with Jonatham Gresham, who he has both teamed with and fought against multiple times.

!!! (Big) Kon (Ryan Parmeter) 「2022-present」
See also Wrestling/TheAscension.
!!! Jonathan Gresham 「2016」 「2021」 「2022-present」
* TheAce: For a time, he was the top face of Ring of Honor before the Tony Khan buyout and is considered as one of the best technical wrestlers in recent memory.
* ArchEnemy: Eddie Edwards, dating back since the aforementioned man betrayed Team Impact and revealed as the leader of Honor No More and he was a GuestFighter in 2021 during the ROH hiatus.
* FriendlyRivalry: With Mike Bailey, who he has teamed with and fought against multiple times.

[[folder: The Knockouts]]
!!! Laura Dennis[=/=]Cherry Bomb[=/=]Allie (Laura Dennis) 「2013」 「2015」 「2016–2019」
* AchievementsInIgnorance: She managed to become Knockouts champion without even knowing it.
%%* TheApprentice: To Maria.
* AscendedExtra: Initially appeared a few times as a jobber or ONO Knockouts Knockdown contestant prior to signing a contract in 2016, most notably to Gail Kim and the Dollhouse.
%%* ButtMonkey: Of Maria's Lady Squad.
* CharacterDevelopment: Maria's annoyingly-mousy personal assistant has grown enough of a spine that she's now gone from a helpless novice to being able to stand fearlessly with or against the same demon her previous self actually awakened.
* DarkerAndEdgier: After seeing her best friend Rosemary apparently killed by Su Yung and her [[OurZombiesAreDifferent undead bridesmaids]], Allie [[BreakTheCutie gives into the darkness and snaps]], becoming angry and vengeful during her match with Su at ''Under Pressure''. Post this match, she's regained her mostly cheerful and friendly demeanor, but is significantly more serious and focused than before. [[SignificantWardrobeShift Her ring attire has also changed]] from [[PinkMeansFeminine pink]] to black.
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: [[spoiler: Allie died on Rosemary's arms and vanished to Bunny Heaven after having her throat slashed by Su Yung.]]
* TheDogBitesBack: Or at least tried. Problem is, she was still under contract to ''Maria'', so she still got kicked back down very frequently. Until Braxton Sutter finally cut the bullshit by saying no to Laurel and revealing all the Lady Squad's blackmail, at which point he and Allie bit back so hard it '''crushed''' the Squad.
* {{Expy}}: Became a [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Buffy Summers]] Expy in her feud with Rosemary in the indies, even coming out to the show's theme song and being referred to as "the Demon Slayer".
* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler: By the consequences by selling her soul Father Mitchell to save Rosemary in a BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor situation, Allie begin acting in a strange heel manner for weeks after Bound For Glory 2018. What that price was and it was indeed handing over her soul to “the Devil himself”, as Allie has now joined the Legion of Su Yung, taking out her former ally Keira Hogan and leaving with The Undead Bride.]]
* FreakOut: Has one leading up to ''Under Pressure'' in May 2018 after seeing Rosemary taken out by Su Yung.
* KickChick: Two of her big power moves are the "Kickass Dropkick" - drop-kicking a opponent who's bent over in the corner up the backside, sending them crashing into the ring post - and a superkick she calls the B.S.E. - Best Superkick Ever.
* KickTheDog: Maria forced her to give up the Knockouts title. Then started frequently bullying and humiliating her. Then wouldn't even let her have a boyfriend or a wrestling coach. She and Braxton eventually said to hell with them.
* NoIndoorVoice: Her incredibly high-pitched mousy voice is clearly meant to invoke this. It's been slightly toned down since her HeelFaceTurn.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: At the culmination of Dark War saw Allie shoving Rosemary aside by TakingTheBullet after she was distracted by Kevin Sullivan and ends up with her throat slashed by Su Yung's bladed glove a la Freddy Krueger of Nightmare on Elm Street. In real life, Allie ended her contract with Impact Wrestling after her character's on-screen death.]]
* OddFriendship: Very much so with Rosemary. A hyperactive cheerful girl with a bunny motif in her graphics and a maniac in face paint who calls herself the Demon Assassin.[[note]]Accounting for the backstory of their relationship in Canada when Allie was known as Cherry Bomb and how it actually started Rosemary's transformation into that demonic persona adds [[DefeatMeansFriendship yet another element]] to this.[[/note]]
* PetTheDog: Received this from the fans when they chanted her name after she took a baton to the head for the Knockouts Championship. This was the beginning of her going from Maria's annoying town crier to an endearing kid-like (but not childish) babyface.
* ProfessionalButtKisser: As Maria's apprentice. Tended to backfire when Maria was angry at something because she didn't know when to stop. Since winning the Knockouts title and being forced to give it up it did nothing but backfire, and she eventually had enough.
* TokenGoodTeammate: In the Lady Squad, she was more like somewhere between this and an indentured servant.
* TookALevelInBadass: Her "Demon × Bunny" partnership with Rosemary has seen her gain a much more serious personality over time. The true level was turning up in Rosemary's demonic face paint at ''Under Pressure'' and causing Su Yung to flip her shit. She put on a hell of a fight, too.
!!! Marti Bell (Martibel Payano) 「2015–2016」
* ButtMonkey: Was usually the first (and most frequent) Dollhouse member to be sacrificed as the fall girl in a fight and to be abruptly silenced in a promo segment.
* CuteAndPsycho: Of course, she's part of the Dollhouse.
* IndirectKiss: Invokes this trope for {{squick}} factor with a jawbreaker that she carries around, occasionally licks, then sticks in the mouth of fallen foes.
* PerkyFemaleMinion: She's been this to Taryn Terrell and Awesome Kong. Averted when it came down to her and best friend Jade, as the Dollhouse broke up when Marti, Rebel, and Jade all three got a #1 contender's match against each other and Jade won.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Her character surname Bell/Belle (the latter being how it's spelled in the indies).
!!! Tessa Blanchard 「2018–2020」
See [[Wrestling/TessaBlanchard her page]] for tropes dedicated to her.

[[quoteright:190:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/56d1eb6afe5ee29b0fc6543d8a8135be.JPG]]
* AscendedFangirl: Atypical of TNA, she was open about her desire to become ''WWE'' women's champion, at least until Knockouts division was formed.
* CanadaEh: Yeah, listen to those promos with fellow Canadians Bobby Roode or Eric Young.
%%* DarkActionGirl: To be Trinity's rival, it is required that she zigzags this.
* LadyInAPowerSuit: A {{fanservice}}y suit was one of her more frequently recurring attires.
* MsFanservice: She was a Playboy playmate.
* NewJobsAsThePlotDemands: Started as wrestler but TNA had no interest in a serious women's division and lost interest in man vs woman matches, so she became a manager, then the assistant to Director of Authority Dusty Rhodes, then an interviewer, then a referee, road agent responsible for promoting TNA on other shows and scouting new talent, then it finally got a serious women's division but still had no interest in pushing Brooks so...
* PutOnABus: She eventually came back, complaining about how TNA kept saying they had nothing for her and how she was going to take out her frustrations on the other knockouts, then disappeared again.
* SexySecretary: For Robert Roode, she also wore a pair of…
* TheVamp: Bobby Roode used her to seduce Eric Young into his services. It took awhile, [[IdiotHero as all subtlety went over his head though]], Brooks eventually resorted to much more aggressive tactics, such ripping his clothes off.
!!! Brittany/Santana Garrett 「2014」 「2017」
[[quoteright:213:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ab941532c74eb0a30f76b86e7d4c8be2.JPG]]
* AmbiguouslyBi: Started as part of a bisexual trio (namely, the woman in Orlando Jordan's entourage) and has had some hints since, such as her storyline with Madison Rayne.
* AscendedExtra: Beyond being known for working on the independent scene (and the first One Night Only Knockouts Knockdown) under her real name, she had a prior TNA run in 2010 as the female valet for Orlando Jordan.
* BrokenPedestal: Her advice to the Impact Zone? "Never meet your heroes."
* TheCutie: Even the "remove every ugly person from the world" Beautiful People think she's cute. They still don't like her very much and used Brittany as a shield when confronted by Havok.
* DepravedBisexual: Between her storylines with Madison Rayne and Samuel Shaw, it seems she's taken a cue from Orlando.
* {{Fangirl}}: Of Madison Rayne.
* FinishingMove: The Shining Star Press (a rope handspring moonsault).
* GirlNextDoor: Very much played up as this around her debut.
* HardHead: Subverted in TNA. Despite being known to headbutt out of desperation, an angle revolved around Madison Rayne telling her to stay away from the ring after receiving a concussion from a Beautiful People attack.
* PutOnABus: At the end of the year.
* SoundtrackDissonance: For what basically amounts to a valet/high profile {{jobber}}[=/=]manager, "The Reign That Never Ends" is an amazing theme.
* StalkingIsLove: Her "relationship" with Samuel Shaw started with her hovering around him despite his protests that he wasn't interested. Eventually he gave in and turned on Gunner for her when she accused Gunner of viewing him as a charity case rather than a friend.
* UngratefulBastard: Getting Shaw to turn on Gunner for her counts 100% for both her and Shaw, as Gunner is the only reason Shaw was able to get out of the mental hospital long enough for Brittany to be able to see him.
* WrestlingFamily: Her father was a former wrestler.
* WomanScorned: She got rejected by Madison Rayne.

[[quoteright:195:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/934fc3e0555f75bc5ad7b88466a94d51.JPG]]
%%* AmazonianBeauty: Depending on your perspective. The former is certainly true if you're Chris Sabin.
%%* DarkActionGirl
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Two of them during the 2014 UK tour. If you watch Xplosion, you saw her debut in a match against ODB that turned into a fight in which both girls got disqualified for pushing around a referee and then kept going after each other for a minute after that. If you just watch Impact, you saw her for the first time when Chris Sabin summoned her to the ring in an utter demolishing of Velvet Sky.
%%* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast
* PutOnABus: Shortly after the tour.
* StatuesqueStunner: At 6'1, 191 pounds, she stands bigger and taller than some X-Division guys.
* TinyGuyHugeGirl: The huge girl to Chris Sabin's tiny guy.
!!! Francine (Francine Fournier) 「2002」

See [[Wrestling/JackieGayda her page]] for tropes dedicated to her.
!!! Chelsea Green/Laurel Van Ness (Chelsea Anne Green) 「2016-2018」 「2021-2022」
* BetaBitch: One of two to Maria Kanellis.
* {{Blackmail}}: She and her Lady Squad partners extorted Braxton Sutter to be with her instead of Allie. Eventually Braxton revealed, ''during the wedding, upon saying "I don't" and thus rejecting Laurel completely,'' that the "or else" condition would be getting Allie fired.
* FantasticFragility: Having a history of being legitimately injured in her wrist a few times in her career, she later used that knowledge as a FakeWeakness, and it shows by betraying Mickie James with it.
* ForeheadOfDoom: She has a sizeable forehead, which is emphasized by her hairstyles and by her frequent usage of said forehead as a weapon.
* HappilyMarried: To fellow wrestler Matthew Cardona. Also a BattleCouple for Intergender Tag Team matches.
* LadyDrunk: After being rejected by Braxton Sutter, and again after being rejected by Grado.
* MeaningfulName: In the sense that Laurel Van Ness seems like a distortion of Laura Dennis, the real name of the wrestler portraying Allie.
* RedBaron: The second to use "Hot Mess" as a nickname.
* ReimaginingTheArtifact: In her return to Impact, Chelsea reimagines her "Hot Mess" gimmick by amalgamating her sane and insane gimmicks into one.
* RichBitch: Constantly makes reference to her father being some sort of UnclePennybags paying her way through life.
* TagTeam: With Deonna Purrazzo in VXT.
* TheBusCameBack: Returns to Impact Wrestling in ''Slammiversary 2021'', this time under her real name of Chelsea Green.
* UseYourHead: Headbutts are a frequent part of her arsenal.
* VillainousBreakdown: At one point she was a complete disheveled mess, crying and drinking herself into a psychotic stupor ever since Braxton dumped her. She hadn't even showered or changed out of her wedding dress since then, something which Sienna {{lampshade|Hanging}}d. Eventually got out of it with Grado, then back into it when he dumped her for being Canadian and thus not giving him a Visa to stay in the United States. Found something of an equilibrium after that; she's not drinking herself to death anymore, and she can actually wash and dress herself as well as compete in matches now, but the lipstick and party-hardy demeanor clearly gives away that she's not all there.
!!! Hamada (Ayako Valentina Hamada Villareal) 「2009–2010」
[[quoteright:188:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/2f5c23a1e5f6d0cbb313fff94828c44e.JPG]]
* ActionGirl: Which got her an invitation into World Elite, not that she took it but Hamada did give Eric Young a run for his money.
* AmbiguouslyGay: Even beyond the LesYay inherent in most Women's Divisions, Hamada seemed more than a little interested in Taylor, had expressed no attraction towards men, and dressed much more masculine than the average Knockout.
%%* BadassLongcoat: Her entrance attire.
%%* [[RedOniBlueOni Blue Oni]]: To Awesome Kong and Taylor.
* ButNotTooForeign: Half Mexican, half Japanese, one hundred percent awesome.
* DemotedToExtra: She and Kong were stripped of the Knockout Tag Team Title because they had not defended them in thirty days, even though that statement was a bald faced lie.
* GarbageWrestler: Her first match on Impact saw her introduce a table for the heck of it, and she kept up with these antics for quite awhile.
* LadyOfWar: Well, sort of. She was the most reserved and conservative of the knockouts (okay, Saeed may have been more conservative but was not reserved in any sense of the word). That may just be to the fact she did not get a ton of focus. Hamada did show some tendencies to go overboard in matches but that never seemed to be reflected in anything she did when not competing.
* LastNameBasis: For some reason it wasn't considered there are quite a few "Hamadas" in wrestling, herself related to some of them.
* MadeOfIron: Was probably the toughest Knockout in the company at the time she left.
* OddCouple: Her and Taylor.
* PerpetualFrowner: Rarely smiles.
* PutOnABus: She left the promotion after being stripped of a title belt, again.
* TheQuietOne: Since she doesn't speak much English.
* ReligiousBruiser: She can occasionally be seen knelt in prayer when not wrestling.
* SheCleansUpNicely: Ayako Hamada is pretty hot when she relaxes and quits looking so scary.
* TheStoic: In most TNA matches, she's known for yelling a fair bit in Mexico.
* UseYourHead: Grab head, slam hers into it.
* WrestlingFamily: Has a father, brother and sister who are all wrestlers.
!!! Havok/[=JesSICKa=] (Jessica Cricks) 「2014–2015」 「2019–present」
[[quoteright:216:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bddd116af4db0fc26b28810cd1859ee4.JPG]]
* AscendedExtra: Made a one off appearance for a knockouts only pay per view... which ended up airing six months later, [[InvertedTrope well after her official debut]].
* BadassCape: Added one to her entrance attire in November 2014.
* BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: [=JesSICKa=] is the Brawn to Taya Valkyrie's Beauty and Rosemary's Brains in Death Dollz.
* {{Catchphrase}}: As [=JesSICKa=], she often says "Cuz' I'm sick!".
* CharlieBrownFromOuttaTown: Havok was nowhere seen during Rosemary and Taya Valkyrie's journey in the Undead Realm. [=JesSICKa=] is found instead, but the resemblance with Havok is already present.
* CoolMask: As Havok, she wore a gas/training mask in her entrance.
* EvilLaugh: Doesn't make her gimmick out of it, but she does have this.
* {{Expy}}
** Of Awesome Kong, if only by technicality due to Kong predating her in TNA by several years. That said, their gimmicks are markedly different, with the only clear similarity being their build-based dominance and the fact that they both seem to not like talking in TNA. Even then, Havok had already spoke more in her second Impact appearance than Kong did in the entirety of her TNA run and much contemporary to it, English words anyway.
** More or less acknowledged when Kong made her unexpected return to TNA, even changing her braids red to be more like Havok.
* FacialMarkings: A green or black stripe across her eyes and around the back of her head. Hair shaved off on the sides so you can see.
* FinishingMove: Appeared to be an Air Raid Crash when she first arrived, but as of her Impact debut, it's been a choke slam known as the Harlot Slayer.
* HeelFaceTurn: She turned Face after her alliance with the then Heel Wrestling/SuYung was fractured, and cemented once both of them killed Father James Mitchell (he suddenly got better, through).
* KnightOfCerebus: A non-lethal variation. She injured a {{Determinat|or}}ing Wrestling/GailKim in one episode of Impact Wrestling, only for the latter return to compete. It got Havok the title.
* {{Not H|imself}}erself: This is Taya and Rosemary's reaction when they found Havok in the Undead Realm, only to reveal that she's changed and goes by the name of [=JesSICKa=], whose personality is exactly the opposite of Havok.
* LaserGuidedKarma: While attempting to flee the sinking ship that is TNA by taking part in NXT tryouts, news broke on the internet that someone had unearthed a ridiculously large amount of racist/homophobic tweets she made years ago and had never gotten around to deleting, because TNA didn't pay attention to that kind of thing. It is expected that she will go back to defending TNA before long.
* LastNameBasis: She's not the only Havok in wrestling, nor even the only one in the history of TNA, though in this case no one is going to confuse or associate her with any of the others.
* PowerStable: As Havok, she joined the current incarnation of Decay when she and Rosemary win the Impact Knockouts Tag Team Championship.
* PowerTrio: As [=JesSICKA=], with Rosemary and Taya Valkyrie in Death Dollz.
* RoseHairedSweetie: [=JesSICKa=]'s hair color is pink and is a happy go-lucky girl, compared to Havok's black hair and penchant for destruction.
* SignatureMove: An elevated hammerlock cradle, usually dropped into a spine buster. When she debuted the move on Impact, she ambushed Gail Kim and separated her shoulder by using the move to ram Kim into the ring post.
* SpikesOfVillainy: Her entrance attire is bristling with pointy bits.
* TheBusCameBack: She returns to Impact Wrestling in 2019 for a second run.
* WrestlingMonster: The promotion's resident powerhouse with a terrifying motif.

* CuteAndPsycho: Was part of the Dollhouse, it comes with the territory.
* FinishingMove: ''Eat Defeat'', an inverted stomp facebreaker, adopted from Gail Kim; and ''Protect Ya Neck'', an arm-trap inverted overdrive
* OneSteveLimit: Not to be confused with Alexa Jade, who was a jobber knockout.
* PerkyFemaleMinion: She and Marti were this to Taryn Terrell and Awesome Kong. Then she broke out and became what people know her as as Mia Yim…
* RedBaron: "The War Queen", "The HBIC (Head Baddie In Charge)".

* GameBreakingInjury: Her TNA run was cut short when she broke her leg and had to undergo two surgeries to fix it.
* GarbageWrestler: Was brought in by the Beautiful People specifically because she could give Roxxi and ODB a run for their money in terms of hardcore fighting.

* GarbageWrestler: As the "Hardcore Knockout".
* HollywoodVoodoo: She started out gyrating and doing all sorts of pseudo magic when she was brought in by the "Voodoo Kin Mafia", whom previously had ''nothing'' to do with Voodoo besides the name. She continued to dress the part and be called the "Voodoo Queen" as their valet but dropped the so called "voodoo" quickly enough.
* ImpersonationGambit: On the September 25 (taped September 17), 2008 ''TNA Impact'', she disguised herself as Raisha Saeed and hit Awesome Kong with a chair and then took off the hood to reveal who she really was. Raisha then made her way out revealing that she had been tied up backstage.

* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Has become this to her husband in his Broken brilliance.

* FaceHeelTurn: She did switch sides after hitting PCO with the kendo stick to help her husband Eddie to win.
* GarbageWrestler: As paraphrased by the commentators: "SHE'S HARDCORE!"
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She's blonde and in the side of good. This is no longer the case after her FaceHeelTurn.

* RedBaron: "The Hardcore Half Pint"
* UndyingLoyalty: To Impact Wrestling. This is further exemplified when her husband Eddie Edwards turned Heel and betrayed the very brand he used to be the "Heart and Soul" of it by joining Honor No More. While she still loves Eddie, she remains in the side of Impact Wrestling, not wanting to be affiliated with Honor No More. She was so against Eddie's involvement in Honor No More that she threatened to divorce him if he didn't end the faction.

* BadassBoast: Claimed to have the best biceps in the business.
* MsFanservice: She was "dressing" in police tape before Orlando Jordan made it (in)famous…though she never did it quite to the extent he did and mostly limited it to photo shoots.
* TheRival: She was both the manager of and competitor to Kid Kash. Yes, she alternated between both on a weekly basis. Also to Alexis Laree and ''especially'' to Traci Brooks, whom she had a famed rivalry with before and after TNA. She and Traci were teammates in Bitch Slap but only because of a common enemy in TNA's cage dancers and the leadership of Nurse Veronica.

* BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: Taya Valkyrie is the Beauty to Rosemary's Brains and [=JesSICKa=]'s Brawn in Death Dollz.
* FaceHeelTurn: Turns out her face run was nothing but a ruse set off by Taya and her husband Johnny Impact by just playing mind games to Brian Cage from the beginning.
* HeelFaceTurn: Initially was presented as a heel before taking several months off, but as a result of Knockouts Champion Tessa Blanchard disrespecting Taya's fellow ''luchadoras'' during an ''Impact'' tour of Mexico, Taya came back aiming right for Tessa and the championship.
* OddFriendship: With Rosemary, so much that in her send-off scene has both hugging during her arrest to the [[Wrestling/{{WWE}} Stanford Maximum Security Pennitentiary]].
* PutOnABus: No longer working for Impact Wrestling after being arrested when Taya revealed that she shot John E. Bravo during his wedding with Rosemary.
** TheBusCameBack: Officially returns to Impact during ''Multiverse of Matches'', challenging Deonna Purrazzo for the AAA Reina de Reinas Championship.

* PutOnABus: Her contract with Impact Wrestling expired in 2021 before jumping ship to Wrestling/AllEliteWrestling. In Kayfabe, her send-off scene has her grabbed off by Su Yung and the Bridesmaids, leaving only her hair as a result in a backstage segment, meaning that she got KilledOffForReal.

* PintSizedPowerHouse: She's only 5'2 tall, but she's also a competitive powerlifter with several state and national titles and records under her belt.
* RedBaron: "Thick Momma Pump"
* TheRival: So far, Masha Slamovich has become her greatest rival, an equal, in her entire career.
!!! Kylie Rae (Brianna Rae Sparrey) 「2019-2020」

* NiceGirl: She's one of the most pleasant Knockouts in the roster.
* WritingAroundTrademarks: In her early years, her wrestling attire featured the face of [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Pikachu]]. However, she changed it to an emoji-like smile once she joined Wrestling/AllEliteWrestling and subsequently Impact Wrestling. It stick for the better.

* FieryRedhead: Her hair color is dyed red with white parts and is highly tempered.
* HeelFaceTurn: Cemented after saving Killer Kelly from the attacks of Gisele Shaw and Savannah Evans after weeks of intense rivalry tied with a common denominator: Chains.
* MotherRussiaMakesYouStrong: As a Russian-born wrestler, expect her to be this. Averted unfortunately due to real-life events that forced her "Russian Dynamite" gimmick to be downplayed (see the Impact Wrestling trivia for more details).
* TheRival: Has become one towards Jordynne Grace, which considers her an equal.
** She later got one in Killer Kelly before becoming allies.
* TagTeam: With Killer Kelly as part of MK Ultra.

* ArchEnemy: Had several in their run as a team, including the James Gang/Voodoo Kin Mafia, America's Most Wanted, Team 3D, and Beer Money Inc. Their reunion in 2018 was focused to take out Konnan and his new recruits to LAX.
* BigGuyLittleGuy: Both men could fly, but Hernandez was also the big power guy. Homicide took to being quick and clever to compensate.
* DudeWheresMyRespect: Returned as Kingston's backup plan against Konnan and the new members of LAX out of resentment that Konnan had Homicide stationed at a Mexican strip club and didn't even call Hernandez to be part of it.
* FantasticRacism: Played with. Konnan's gripes with his former 3 Live Kru stablemates which led to him forming LAX would later translate into an overall hatred of ''gringos'', even to the extent of trying to burn the United States flag. However, as soon as he left they began embracing the popularity of the Latino Nation even amongst the non-Latino fanbase. Hernandez later came to regret the flag-burning incident, acknowledging that his father once served in the US military.
* GangBangers: Especially when managed by Konnan or King.
* OneDegreeOfSeparation: Were both included as members of the Beat Down Clan for a short time in 2015, but failed to reunite as Homicide was injured when Hernandez showed up, and the latter's bad contract actually killed the BDC angle.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: How this team was put together. Homicide was initially teamed up with Apolo, but the latter was released due to no-showing an event. He ended up teaming with Machete for a few months before Hernandez was called in instead.

* AffablyEvil: Just two guys that love beer and money, they'd probably have been great to hang out with if/when they weren't trying to beat the crap out of you.
* BashBrothers: When they ''were'' trying to beat the crap out of you. It's what a tag team is, yes, but notable because of how good they were at it and the fact that they briefly kept it up even as singles stars until Roode turned.
* CatchPhrase: BEER!!! MONEY!!!
* OddCouple: James Storm is a southern born fun loving guy that's somewhat dim at times, Robert Roode is a Canadian born serious fellow that's usually on top of things, together they would win Tag Team Titles.
* RedOniBlueOni: Not color coded, but James Storm is the Red (loud, agressive cowboy) and Robert Roode is the Blue (businessman, technical wrestler).

* TheCameo: Despite being "fired" from LAX after only three months, Machete made another short run of appearances a year later to help push the wheelchair-laden Konnan around and help Homicide and Hernandez retain the tag team titles. This was explained as him being a member of their Latino Nation support team.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Both Héctor Guerrero and Kingston were initially briefly opposed to their Latino counterparts before later being established as part of LAX with trusted authority over the main tag team. In the latter case it was kind of a farce.
* DarkestHour: Ortiz and Santana hit this when both Konnan and Homicide vanished, they lost the tag team titles, and nobody was telling them anything about what was going on with the crew's extracurricular activities. Then Kingston appeared and revealed that the latter two were both in a safe spot after being jumped and business was doing just fine except for the two's losing streak. It would turn out that this whole sequence was engineered by King and Homicide, who had taken out Konnan temporarily and then tried to steer the young pups away from him before deciding whether to take them out too.
* EnemyCivilWar: Kingston got tired of waiting for Konnan to step aside and let him take the lead, Homicide resented being stuck in a strip club in Mexico, and Hernandez wasn't even called up to be part of the relaunch of LAX due to issues he and Konnan had had behind the scenes over the years. So the boys ended up becoming resentful of Konnan's decisions and they wanted him out of there, while also trying to manipulate Ortiz and Santana into leaving his side as well. When the young boys ultimately decided to stick with K-Dogg, they went after them as well. Despite this, while King, Homicide, and Hernandez are referred to as the [=OGz=] in official Impact material as well as have a separate theme song, they still called themselves LAX and claimed 5150 at first, before eventually embracing the [=OGz=] label starting at ''Slammiversary''.
* FantasticRacism: Played with. In both incarnations, Konnan would start out having them use a hatred for ''gringos'' as their fuel to achieve success but after being solidly entrenched and getting over with the fans they would phase that out and actually start being cool with white people and others who weren't antagonizing them. Was able to do it twice because Konnan had departed before they made the shift the first time, making it easy to believe he was to blame for the racism.
* GangBangers: Heavily suggested with the first version of LAX, confirmed with the second run. This boils down to the more cinematic character-based style of backstage vignettes run by Impact Wrestling in the post-TNA era.
* HeelFaceTurn: See FantasticRacism above.
* TagTeam: The stable has had two notable championship-level duos over its history. Homicide and Hernandez in its first run, and Ortiz and Santana in its second. Now the two teams are actively against each other in an EnemyCivilWar engineered by King due to him, Homicide, and Hernandez resenting Konnan's decisions.
* WouldHitAGirl:
** Had a disguised member of the Latino Nation frequently attacking Christy Hemme to stop her interference during a short feud with the Rock and Rave Infection. When the Infection raised the issue of Spike's edict against man-on-woman violence, the same Latino Nation member continued attacking Hemme…and then unmasked to reveal [[SubvertedTrope the voluptuous woman known as Salinas]].
** That said, prior to the edict being placed, Hernandez did hit the Border Toss on Gail Kim that one time, and Homicide did drag his favorite "snowflake" Lauren Thompson by the StandardFemaleGrabArea when she downplayed his advances.
* WrestlingDoesntPay: They're wrestling revolutionary activist gangsters. They can't be getting paid enough with any one of those things to be doing all four.

* DoItYourselfThemeTune: MVP is one of the rappers for the group's theme song (and rapped his own theme which was often used for the MVP-King-Lashley trio before the group had a name).

* LeeroyJenkins: Kenny King would often be the first guy to try and get the jump on people, even when it was unnecessary or conterproductive. This left MVP frequently shaking his head.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Unless you want to take a beating, that is.
%%* PowerStable
* PowerTrio: The original foundation of the group before its name came about, with MVP, Lashley, and Kenny King running roughshod over TNA in 2014.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: It helps that the four-man "Music/WuTangClan of ProfessionalWrestling" (MVP, Joe, Ki, and Homicide) have so many like-minded friends and associates in the business, because that's ultimately what's saving this stable from sharing the fate of Aces & Eights through yet another talent hemorrhage.
** Unfortunately, this very same trait is what inevitably killed the Clan. Shortly after leaving Wrestling/LuchaUnderground, Hernandez was signed back to TNA to take part in the BDC storyline. The problem is, ''his contract with LU hadn't quite expired yet.'' When this eventually came back to LU, the ensuing contract dispute forced TNA to drop Hernandez as well as scrap several weeks' worth of BDC taped angles. MVP, who encouraged the deal on both sides, was also released in the fallout. Between their releases, Joe and Ki's departures, Lashley's unceremonious exit from the group and Homicide's injuries, the BDC was literally reduced to just Kenny King, effectively cutting the stable. King himself departed not long afterward.

* CrapsackWorld: Storm seems to have adopted AJ Styles' last worldview of TNA—namely that it's a poorly-managed company where heroes never win. He takes it further, though, outright becoming the villain in order to collect what he feels is his just due.
* {{Cult}}: It's gotten comparisons to similar stables from Wrestling/TheWyattFamily (via WWE fans) to Wrestling/KevinSullivan's Army of Darkness (via Storm himself).
* DefectorFromDecadence: What ultimately ended the stable. Following Khoya's MistreatmentInducedBetrayal and HeelFaceTurn retaking his name of Mahabali Shera, Manik and Abyss became more and more reluctant to attack Shera on Storm's orders (though Abyss hid it better, what with not being the friend who brought Shera in and all). Eventually they got tired of being used to carry out Storm's vendettas and so they decided to walk out on Storm, then take him out to help Shera during the two's grudge match before going their separate ways. Sanada was already PutOnABus back to Wrestle-1 at this point so he wasn't part of it.
* DisproportionateRetribution / ThePowerOfHate: James Storm's overall motivation since the heel turn that led to his starting the stable.
* InitiationCeremony: Whatever it is, it seems to involve being beaten into submission and having your identity changed in some way if Storm sees fit (so far the only person who's largely stayed the same is Abyss; Khoya's the result of a name change, Manik's had a makeover, and Sanada's been outright turned into a Great Muta ripoff).

* WeCanRuleTogether: Has offered this to Davey Richards, Matt Hardy, and Mickie James. They all rejected it.

* {{Foil}} / [[InvertedTrope Light]] [[ShadowArchetype Archetype]]: Ironically, they're this to James Storm's Revolution. Both factions were formed because the leader felt like there was a need to make a change, both leaders have no problem getting into vicious and hardcore fights, and both coat themselves in the language of rebellion. However, Storm's group is acting on a selfish cause, was forged and has operated by manipulative means, and believes that fans shouldn't have their heroes, while Galloway's Rising advocates and fights for the fans to be able to determine those heroes by merit in the middle of the ring.

* ArchEnemy: They share a three-way mutual hatred with the Broken Hardys and Decay.
* ContinuityNod: Bram's return as part of DCC seemed to instead be a [[ContinuitySnarl snarl]] towards the storyline he had going on with Rosemary and Decay where they attacked him for rejecting her in the woods and seemingly left him for dead. Then DCC turned their attention to attacking Decay a few months in and Bram revealed he joined DCC in the first place to get revenge on Decay. Crazzy Steve later referenced the fact that Decay were the ones who beat Beer Money out of TNA (with Bobby Roode heading out for NXT shortly after losing the tag titles to Decay) so Storm could easily want revenge against them too. Though they never referenced Kingston's relationship with Jade in real life and other companies, the latter feuding with Rosemary as the blue to her red.
* CrapsackWorld: The DCC fancied themselves anonymous champions of justice for the downtrodden and outcast, carrying an aesthetic that crosses between ''ComicBook/VForVendetta'' and ''ComicBook/MenInBlack''. Storm and Kingston in particular had a beef with people being overlooked in the business for not fitting a certain corporate image, feeling they've been hard done by in this manner for years.
* EvilVersusEvil: Despite being heels themselves, they would rather take out other heel groups than team with them. Just ask Decay, who DCC have plenty of reasons to hate as it is. Also, Eli Drake and Tyrus.
* FaceHeelTurn: Storm and Bram were Faces before launching this group.
* ThePowerOfHate: Kingston hates the business for holding him back because he doesn't look or talk like a company poster boy. Bram straight up wants revenge on Decay. Storm sympathizes with both causes — and has hinted that he wants another shot at the TNA World Title, what with the group attacking Eddie Edwards on Impact and threatening Lashley on Twitter during their respective latest reigns as of early 2017.
* PowerTrio: Storm is the central figure and obvious leader, even if he'll deny it on Twitter. Still, all three have reputations as dangerous men.
* TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized: Storm's second attempt at this type of stable in as many years, though with a far more solid foundation this time around. Billy Corgan was supposed to be the "unjust authority" targeted by this revolution, but he ended up being forced out of the company before that could happen.

* DirtyCoward: He could get in the ring himself even if just occasionally, but prefers to hide behind his team instead.
* ForeignWrestlingHeel: Always downplaying Americans and claiming Canadians were superior athletes.

When he was all alone with no one to protect him, however, his attitude quickly changed and he'd be begging for mercy. Faces like Styles and Rhino ignored his pleas as they pummeled him.

* LoserLeavesTown: Was forced back to the announce team after a brief term managing LAX when they lost to Beer Money and Jacqueline in a six-person match where the losing team would lose its manager.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: To his late younger brother Wrestling/{{Eddie|Guerrero}}.
* TokenHeroicOrc: During the Latin American Xchange's initial reign of terror with Konnan he was the only purely-babyface Latino wrestler on the roster and thus briefly feuded with them.

[[folder: Dixie Carter]]
!!! Dixie Carter-Salinas
Heiress with lots of time on her hands. Became the President of TNA Wrestling following her family's acquisition of the company in early 2003. First started making on-screen appearances in 2009. Likes to tweet. Not to be confused with [[Series/DesigningWomen Julia Sugarbaker]]. As of August 12, 2016, she willingly stepped down as President and selected Billy Corgan as her replacement. Her new official title became Chief Strategy Officer (and as majority shareholder, she remained Chairwoman of the Board of Directors). Unfortunately, as Corgan's appointment was InNameOnly, Dixie remained in power until the majority purchase of TNA by Anthem Sports and Entertainment in January 2017, when she was promptly KickedUpstairs onto the advisory board of Anthem subsidiary Fight Media Group and into minority ownership.
----
* AlternateCompanyEquivalent: She comes across as a bizarre union between Wrestling/{{Vince|McMahon}} and Wrestling/StephanieMcMahon. As in, ''an uncomfortably awkward mismatch of the worst parts'' of Vince and Stephanie [=McMahon=].
* UsefulNotes/AmericanAccents: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Dixie]]. It definitely adds to her charm.
* ArchEnemy:
** In Kayfabe— Wrestling/HulkHogan, Wrestling/EricBischoff, Wrestling/JeffJarrett and the rest of Immortal as a face, Wrestling/AJStyles, Wrestling/{{Sting}}, [[Wrestling/MontelVontaviousPorter MVP]], etc. as a heel.
** In RealLife— Jesse Sorensen, Wrestling/{{Daffney|Unger}} and many other disgruntled former employees she seriously wronged in some way. She would very much like to be one to Wrestling/VinceMcMahon, if [[UnknownRival he acknowledged her in the slightest]]. Billy Corgan joined the lineup in late 2016 as she had effectively screwed him over as well.
* AuthorAppeal: She is apparently a big reality TV fan, hence the appearances of so many veterans of ''Series/{{Survivor}},'' ''Series/JerseyShore,'' and why ''Series/BigBrother'' veteran Jessie Godderz once claimed she's one of his biggest cheerleaders in the company. But you know she's a ''really'' big fan when reports come in about her filming several pilots for a reality TV show based on her life.
* BadBoss: By all accounts, both on-screen and in RealLife. Just look at the below tropes for numerous examples, and it's plainly clear that this woman has no idea how to run a ''business'', let alone a wrestling promotion, with how callously she treats those under her employ, with little regard for their safety. Say what you want about the WWE or Vince [=McMahon=], but they value the safety of their performers above all else — it's bluntly stated by everyone involved with the business that Vince will ''never'' make a performer do something that he himself wouldn't do. Meanwhile, Dixie has no issues taking money from a wrestler's paycheck to pay for medical procedures for injuries done on the job — and there is no excuse for this, as TNA under her watch was backed by a multi-million dollar energy company that can easily front the money at a moment's notice. It only gets worse from there.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Her Dixieland / Carter Kingdom shtick since turning heel in 2013 was built on this. Unfortunately, like most of the heel tropes here, this was as true in real life as ever. The nadir of this was the news involving the secret rehiring of Wrestling/VinceRusso. Let's put it this way: in a time where they need to negotiate on a new contract with Creator/SpikeTV in a matter of months in order to stay on the air, Dixie and her Creative/Talent VP were willing to rehire the notorious writer who most TNA fans as well as Spike executives themselves hate with a passion, and lie about it to everyone for months — ''including the very wrestlers whose careers in the company are guided by their creative direction and the discretion of the fans!''
** The sad part about this is that Dixie is probably the greatest source of nepotism in the history of the company, and that's accounting for the fact that this company was founded by the Jarretts — not-so-much to replace WCW as it was to put the spotlight on Jeff. Her misplaced loyalty to industry veterans desperately trying to keep the spotlight on themselves had become a severe detriment to the company. It's very clear that even Jeff was disgusted by how things were going, as indicated by his departure after failing to buy back the company. Oh, and that secret rehiring of Russo up there? Probably had to do with why the cash value in Spike's offer to renew their TV deal with TNA wasn't to Dixie's liking. Yet there ''was'' still an offer on the table. One which Dixie repeatedly tried to special-plead Spike into doubling or tripling until they got tired of her and just called it off, then tried to backtrack and accept the original offer when it was too late. TNA was forced to shop around for a new network after that, and have since been reduced to either lower level cable stations or Twitch streaming to air their shows, never reaching anything close to the heights they were at with Spike.
* DealWithTheDevil: She became the proverbial devil in her heel run, offering top guys help and perks to turn around and follow her agenda. It ended up working on half the heels on the roster, but only managed (and needed) to corrupt one babyface — Magnus, who became her new hood ornament as TNA World Heavyweight Champion.
* DearNegativeReader: You would think the president of a nationally broadcast wrestling promotion would have more important things to do than pick a fight on Twitter with an [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment online critic over a vlog]]. You would be wrong.
* DistaffCounterpart:
** To Ted Turner. Dixie is what's referred to on the street as a "whale" or "money mark"; if you manage to win her loyalty, she will shower you with funds and support over the objections of her close advisers.
** Arguably to Wrestling/VinceMcMahon. Appeared to be neutral if not altrustic, before revealing her petty tyrannical side, just as he did. Her heel-turn storyline with AJ Styles seems to be a composite expy of Vince's storylines with Wrestling/StoneColdSteveAustin and Wrestling/CMPunk, respectively.
* FaceHeelTurn: Arguably a revelation at that.
** HeelFaceTurn: After recovering from the table slam, courtesy of Bully Ray, no less.
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: While she picked up the VillainBall to make it easier, there was almost nothing Dixie Carter could do on the date Bully Ray set for her table trip short of not showing up for work at all. Her own personal Twitter account was even hijacked to advertise it!
* FemaleMisogynist: According to several former TNA Knockouts, Dixie goes out of her way to be needlessly unpleasant to female employees. One particular story comes from [[Wrestling/LisaMarieVaron Tara]], who dedicated a lot of time and energy and money to hyping up a TNA event in Chicago via her restaurant, then told Dixie about it, the latter's only response being "I heard." [[UngratefulBastard Not even a "thank you" or anything. TNA talent were then instructed to promote another restaurant in the area.]] Understandably, she wanted to punch Dixie in the face.
** A little more elaboration on that: according to several reports, this is partially out of resentment for the fact that the Knockouts' success was due to Dutch Mantell, who was one of Jeff Jarrett's people. [[ItsAllAboutMe Essentially, she's mean to the Knockouts because they're aren't a result of any of her ideas or those of her people.]] However, the ''really'' nasty treatment didn't start until Hogan and his lot came and, despite their supposed "big-name" status, the Knockouts still drew higher-rated segments.
%%* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Arguably.
* GoodIsDumb:
** Even as a face, she made such obtuse decisions as sitting down the entire roster [[WithUsOrAgainstUs and telling them to step their game up without questioning her]] in a real-life meeting aired on television heading into the Hogan/Bischoff Regime, and not even bothering to punish a psychotic monster for carving up her reigning champion with a nail board and torturing backstage workers with a branding iron ''[[ItsAllAboutMe until he put his hands on her]]''. Of course, she became far more [[GenreSavvy competent]] upon turning heel, as it's allowed her to embrace this more selfish side of her and toss it back in people's faces.
** The "working relationship" storyline with Wrestling/JeffJarrett's Global Force Wrestling was a ''ridiculously'' bad look for her. First the man she put in charge of ''Impact Wrestling'', Bully Ray (see HeelRealization for why that would ever happen), gets taken out backstage, after which Jarrett, who she just inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame and who's only now starting to get GFW off the ground as a wrestling product, promptly walks in and offers to run the show week-by-week, which she accepts without hesitation. The first week he's running the show, he brings in a host of GFW talent to immediately insert themselves into TNA's title pictures, including vacating and putting up his King of the Mountain Championship—along with #1 contendership to the TNA World Heavyweight Championship—in the titular reverse ladder match, with both TNA and GFW talent. [[Wrestling/DrewMcIntyre Drew Galloway]], one of TNA's hottest acquisitions and probably their top guy in the King of the Mountain ladder match, gets taken out mysteriously backstage the same way Bully Ray did. Who ends up winning the match? [[Wrestling/JustinGabriel "The Darewolf" PJ Black]], a GFW wrestler. The writing is on the wall as to what this actually is. Yet Dixie can't see it, happily co-signing on everything Jeff does. Josh Mathews can't see it, not even bothering to interview a single GFW wrestler in his investigation on TNA's [=YouTube=] channel — and this is despite the fact that he himself has already previewed an episode of ''Impact'' that he acknowledged was '''[[DevilInPlainSight outright billed as TNA vs. GFW]]'''. In fact, the '''only person''' saying the obvious truth even once — is Dixie's corrupt entitled [[{{Kayfabe}} nephew]], the TNA World Heavyweight Champion himself, Ethan Carter III. And because she's a face now while he's still heel, she doesn't even believe him. By the time the truth comes out and the hostile takeover is officially launched, not only is no one surprised but Dixie, half the fans are cheering for GFW and Ethan is so disgusted with his aunt doubting him on such an obvious truth that he washes his hands of the whole deal when later asked to fight for TNA.
** After a team of TNA guys takes out the GFW invasion, Dixie awards the teammates a chance to earn a shot at Ethan's title at Bound for Glory, which is won by team captain Drew Galloway. When Ethan starts openly questioning the hype around Galloway — not even the decision to have the match, but ''the hype around Galloway'' — the easy justification Dixie and Galloway offer is that Drew fought to defend TNA in its "darkest hour" and Ethan didn't. This despite the fact that, again, Ethan was right about Jarrett all along, and that ''he beat back the aforementioned title shot won by PJ Black and kept GFW away from the World Heavyweight Title while Dixie was still blindly supporting Jeff's every move'', something she still has yet to give him any credit for. Then she responds to Ethan's further questioning by basically throwing in the Hardy Boys in the perfect position to put the screws to Ethan and still be seen as the faces — Matt getting a place as the third competitor in the match, Jeff being inserted as the guest referee just a week after [=EC3=] let him go as a "personal assistant", with BFG taking place in their home state. When this predictably happens and Ethan declares Dixie dead to him as result, then pulls a RulesLawyer and gets an injunction declared on the world title forcing Matt to relinquish it, no one sheds a tear for anyone involved. The only saving grace is that this was used as the prelude to Dixie and [[Music/TheSmashingPumpkins Billy Corgan]] "coming up with" the [[UsefulNotes/TheWorldCup FIFA World Cup]]-style tournament for the championship that TNA had taped most of the matches for months ago.
* HeelRealization: Credits Bully Ray's powerbomb of her through a table surrounded by the cheers of the entire TNA roster as what woke her up to what she'd done to the company over the years, even giving Bully the job of being "the law" in TNA. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that as soon as Bully gets taken out mysteriously backstage in an off-screen attack, she promptly puts her trust in someone with obviously deceitful goals, most likely out of sheer stupidity, which also doubles as HorribleJudgeOfCharacter.
* HopeSpot: As of August 12th, 2016, she has stepped down as President of TNA. Her replacement? BILLY CORGAN!!
* ItsAllAboutMe: Moreso than Vince, if the Internet is to be believed. For all his rants on TV and his surrounding of [[Wrestling/CMPunk glad-handing, nonsensical douchebag]] [[YesMan Yes Men]], Vince was always willing to put his ego aside when there was business to be done and lots and ''lots'' of money to be made. Dixie, on the other hand, has made it clear both onscreen and arguably in RealLife that if something good is happening in TNA that isn't coming from her, then it isn't worth mentioning.
* MeanBoss: By all accounts, if you're not an established ring veteran, TNA management will treat you like dirt and intentionally put you in serious danger for minor increases in audience share. Very few TNA employees, current and former have anything good to say about her, the only reason she isn't criticized as much as Vince is that (A) TNA contracts explicitly forbid saying anything bad publicly about her on pain of dismissal, and (B) she hasn't done anything as publicly blatant as the Wrestling/MontrealScrewjob to really open the floodgates. Some have even gone on record to say that she might be even ''worse'' than Vince. The confirmation from AJ Styles that she was the one who low-balled him during contract negotiations, causing the ultimate departure of the heart and soul of the company, is a further nail in the coffin of her image.
* MrsRobinson: Er…? Has a strange way of appearing quite cozy with guys who she puts trust in to carry the company. Though things have never gotten intimate to anyone's knowledge (although it has been rumored for quite a while, to the point of becoming a question asked in a few shoot interviews with ex-TNA talent), her closeness with certain men in TNA over the years has been downright {{shipp|ing}}able. This backfired horribly against…well, really against Wrestling/AJStyles, when Wrestling/ChristopherDaniels and [[Wrestling/FrankieKazarian Kazarian]] decided to use it as part of a plot to ruin his life.
* PointyHairedBoss: All Dixie had to do was manage TNA's financial services with JJ, not take it away from him and run it into the ground just so she could play businesswoman.
%% * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: What she has appeared to be for so many years, with her "motherly Southern belle" image.
%% * RichBitch: What she's at least turned into following her FaceHeelTurn.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: Dixie is not the keenest intellect around — having been swindled repeatedly by the likes of Bischoff and Hogan — but the company in general enjoys this. Wrestling/{{WCW}} failed because they alienated fans to the point that they were a financial sinkhole and TBS sold them down the river; Wrestling/{{ECW}} was financially mismanaged and had a product that was too violent to get mainstream attention; independent promotions have paper-thin profit margins and fail all the time if they simply don't draw; the Wrestling/{{WWE}} and Wrestling/RingOfHonor have to answer to stockholders, network executives and fans and could conceivably fail if people just stop watching. TNA has a guaranteed timeslot on Spike (or used to; apparently even Spike had their limits) and are financially propped up by a major energy company owned by Dixie's father (also used to; even Dixie's family had their limits), this makes Dixie essentially a law unto herself and means that, unless TNA becomes a huge liability, will be funded if people watch or not.
* SpoiledBrat: As many people note, Dixie treats TNA as more of a plaything to pass the time with than an actual business and as a springboard to getting her own reality show. A lot of her actions scream of an attitude playing to her ego—she hates anything in TNA that's successful that isn't a result of her or a member of her personal circle (see: the Knockouts). When you're a trust fund baby who isn't going to have to worry about money, regardless of whether the promotion folds or not, you're apparently allowed to act like that.
* SpotlightStealingSquad: Has become this since her heel turn, and it's kept up even through her loss of control over wrestling operations.
* StupidEvil: Evidently in both {{Kayfabe}} and RealLife. Even after so much consequent loss, she still refused to learn her lesson regarding all of her actions that made her HatedByAll.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: No, AJ Styles did not take her breath away just looking at him in a magazine. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that she would reveal the man who did; Magnus.
* TooDumbToLive: She hired every single person that was on the cover of ''Literature/TheDeathOfWCW'' and allowed them free reign over her company. There's a reason people say TNA is dying a slow death.
* UnknownRival:
** Twitter in general. Special mention goes to [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment Noah Antwiler]] and [=420Chan=] for abusing the [=#AskDixie=] hashtag to lewd and comic effect. Also, RD Reynolds of ''Website/{{Wrestlecrap}}'', said to already be in the process of writing another book about TNA's eventual collapse.
** Then there's the aforementioned relationship with Vince and the [=McMahon=] family in general. Dixie and TNA can make all the potshots they want, but they're barely a blip on the radar as far as the WWE is concerned.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: With Wrestling/AJStyles, Wrestling/{{Sting}}, and Wrestling/JeffJarrett most notably among others.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: With Team MVP running her out of wrestling operations and Magnus recruiting Abyss as his ally to keep the World Heavyweight Championship, she became this to Magnus. For a long time the only person loyal to Dixie was [=EC3=], but that ended after her HeelFaceTurn when she reappeared down the line. She got wrestlers willing to fight for her to stave off company invasions after that, but it's not exactly the same.

[[folder: Billy Corgan]]
!!! William Patrick Corgan
Yes, the frontman for Music/TheSmashingPumpkins. A lifelong wrestling fan, he was hired prior to the jump to Pop as the Senior Producer of Creative & Talent Development. On August 12, 2016, he legitimately succeeded Dixie Carter as TNA President.
\\\
Or not, as it would later be revealed that he was made TNA President InNameOnly. He would later sue Dixie and TNA over it, and was eventually paid off just before Anthem purchased TNA. Not long afterward, he purchased the NWA.
----
* FullNameBasis: Although more often known in general culture by his musical identity of Billy Corgan, he uses his full name in wrestling-related media (TNA/Impact and NWA).
* PyrrhicVictory: While Corgan!TNA didn't pan out, his investments did manage to save the company long enough to move past the Dixie Carter era with new ownership and management, as well as establish enough credibility for himself in the wrestling world to buy the classic NWA instead.
* RagsToRiches: In stark contrast to the RichBitch that is Dixie Carter, he has had a pretty tragic life, having grown up in a horribly abusive home, spending much of his childhood taking care of his disabled brother and dealing with severe and at times near-suicidal depression. Then he went on to achieve fame and fortune with the Smashing Pumpkins, some of which he used to gain a credible position and make a major investment into TNA in its latest DarkestHour in 2016.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Kayfabe-wise, he is willing to make friends with and put his foot down against both Faces and Heels alike to make the right decisions for the product. Behind the scenes, he's been helping maximize most of the characters on this page who had "–present" next to their names and he invested his own money into making sure TNA had enough funding to run past ''Slammiversary 2016'' despite already having power over creative. It's pretty telling that even on-screen, one of his first acts was to help Dixie fix one of her own mistakes (turning the [=EC3=]/Hardys BFG world title fiasco caused by her thankless attitude toward her own nephew over a period of several months into UsefulNotes/TheWorldCup-esque World Title Series tournament that was pretaped to fill up the show's last remaining Destination America airdates).

%%* BadassLongcoat: As part of AMW.
%%* CoolShades
* EyepatchOfPower: Caused by his then Ex-Tag Team partner, James Storm.
* PutOnABus: Apparently because he complained too much.
* TheBusCameBack: For an extremely short time in 2011, memorable only for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17LDYDDPpFA the Impact Zone's hilarious chanting]]. And a last one in ''Against All Odds 2022'' teaming with James Storm, The MCMG and Josh Alexander against Honor No More, as a proper send-off to his wrestling career.

* CanonName: His real first name.
* CatchPhrase: Nada es imposible, he even tattooed it on his bicep.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Flat-out vanished from TNA the month after beginning his 2015 run, due to legal issues with Wrestling/LuchaUnderground, who he was technically still under contract to at the time. Especially notable that it also killed the Beat Down Clan, which he was heavily involved in.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Hernandez was in TNA several years before his run with LAX, as a member of Wrestling/JeffJarrett's Elite Guard.
* GangBangers: LAX, [[ANaziByAnyOtherName Mexican America]], BDC, Outlaw Gz, every stable he's been a member of since 2006 has had an element of this.
%%* HiredGuns: For Immortal against Matt Morgan.
* InsaneTrollLogic: Says he was treated like a star in Mexico, which made him realize he was treated like a second class citizen in USA because of his race. This completely justifies working for old white men to injure another white man in his mind.
* LastNameBasis: Lots of variations are used in place of a first name.
* LightningBruiser: Slingshot in the ring, boarder toss out.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: By starting Mexican America he was seeking to prove Mexicans were the superior race, yes, even to all you other Latinos and Hispanics!
* RedBaron: Super Mex, complete with with [[ShirtlessScene Shirt-Ripping]].
%%* UnderwearOfPower: For a while...
* WouldHitAGirl: Kicked an LAX-America's Most Wanted Feud to a new level by border tossing Gail Kim. WWC also found out the hard way when invaded by Mexican America.

* CommutingOnABus: His last two tenures with the company were basically this.
* GreenEyedMonster: Of the jealous variety. He was obviously scared his manager Trinity was going to take his spot and his X Division Championship. These fears proved to be somewhat justified but he managed not fight her off and keep his spot.
%%* {{Jerkass}}
* NonchalantDodge: His reaction to Delirious' crazed rampages was just to stand his ground, keep his eye on him and roll out of the way when Delirious approached until the masked man calmed down.
* RedBaron: The Notorious K.I.D.
%%* SmallNameBigEgo
* SpitefulSpit: To Amazing Red, in response to his attempts to be sportsmanlike.

%%* AlliterativeName
* ByTheHair: Threatened to pull out Christian York's dreadlocks if that's what it took to win the X-Division title. He's also plucked Eric Young's beard hairs!
* ChessMotifs: Has put the King piece on his tights.
* {{Expy}}: To Wrestling/RandyOrton in revived!Wrestling/{{Evolution}}, as the younger, most athletic and volatile member who has been [[MrFanservice deliberately used for female fanservice]] (though the latter part is coincidental). However, besides role comparison King is not as cerebral as Orton, though King is better at lying, and is much more energetic than Orton, both in promos and in the ring. Despite the similarities of the role King is ''far'' from being the golden boy of TNA to Orton's protected WWE status.
* {{Filth}}: His other lines of work as described by Eric Young, who says he can't talk about the things Kenny King has been involved with on television. As a babyface Mike and Taz would constantly make references to him being a "real life Magic Mike" (though it didn't quite catch on into his RedBaron), and his theme song was even titled "Magic Machine" as a nod to this.
* FinishingMove: Royal Flush.
* {{Jerkass}}: He will let loose with TrashTalk and/or cheap shots for the slightest perceived offense, brags on- and off-mic every chance he gets about himself and/or his cohorts, and has even shown immense disrespect towards a [[AllAmericanFace war veteran]] turned wrestler who has the [[HandicappedBadass scars to show for it]]. The last example pretty much got him pinned by Chris Melendez, but then he would add yet another by trying to rip off Melendez' [[ArtificialLimbs automail leg]] in retaliation.
* JerkJock: So why doesn't he like Chris Melendez? Because Melendez has a lot of attention, a prosthetic leg and hasn't done anything on King's level (never mind Melendez only being on TNA's active roster for a week).
* {{Jobber}}: Was one in his first run.
* LeeroyJenkins: Highlighted when he jumped on Bully Ray, who was carrying a ''really'' long pipe.
-->MVP: "Kenny, Kenny, you gotta learn...aw forget it."
* MrFanservice: And he knows it. Has worked as a Chippendale dancer in his Indy days.
* PutOnABus: Right back to Wrestling/RingOfHonor.
** TheBusCameBack: However, with ROH on hiatus, he returns to Impact Wrestling in 2022 as part of Honor No More.
* RedBaron: The King of the Night, The Pretty Boy Pit Bull.
%%* SmallNameBigEgo
* TheHyena: Whenever he thinks he is winning he is liable to burst out into laughter.
* TheStarscream: A painfully obvious one to MVP from the moment it's revealed they even have an allegiance. This actually stopped being the case after MVP got injured and told King and Lashley to fight it out and let the best man win.
* UnderwearOfPower: Its more than he wears in his other showbiz profession.

* FinishingMove: The Canadian Destroyer, which, despite its looks, is one of the safest variations of the piledriver.
* ForeignWrestlingHeel: As a member of Team Canada.
* GroinAttack: Puts his opponent upside down in the turnbuckle and steps on their groin and starts singing O Canada.
* HotBlooded: Became this when Wrestling/ScottSteiner took him under his wing.

* CasanovaWannabe: Liked to flirt with the Knockouts, usually didn't work.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When he got the fired case in Feast or Fired, he thought he was getting a title shot.

* DemotedToExtra
* {{Expy}}: For awhile, [=TNA=] seemed to be booking him how Wrestling/{{Sting}} was booked in Wrestling/{{WCW}}. His promo style contains a good deal of Wrestling/DustyRhodes, Wrestling/RicFlair, and [[Wrestling/DwayneJohnson the Rock]] mixed in also.
** He also inspired one notable Expy of his own, in the form of none other than Wrestling/KazuchikaOkada--who, upon his return to New Japan, adopted a similarly cocky, obscenely-rich persona, complete with fake money falling from the ceiling during his entrance.
* EyePatchOfPower: Courtesy of AJ Styles.
* HesBack:
** After disappearing from TV for several months, he made his return to television on the 6/14/12 edition of Impact as a participant in the Bound For Glory Series. Unfortunately, he was eliminated early from the Series, due to injury.
** After being released from the company following his injury and doing his own thing as an independent, he returned in 2015 to fill in at commentary when Taz left and Josh Mathews needed a partner. He was later made Mathews' permanent partner.
* InspectorJavert: He really, really didn't trust Mr. Anderson. Anderson proved him wrong. Conversely, Wrestling/SamoaJoe really, really didn't trust him. He proved Joe right; they hated each other.
* {{Irony}}: Remember the 2011-2012 feud where he tried to corrupt [[Wrestling/TheDudleyBoys Devon]]'s sons? Bet he was wishing he could take that back when [[Wrestling/AcesAndEightsWrestlers someone's new crew]] beat him down about 8-9 months later in what turned out to be his final appearance as a wrestler in TNA.
* LargeHam: He's taken his preacher background to heart.
* MoneySong: A cross between a rap song and a gospel revival number. It's pretty awesome.
* MrViceGuy: He's implied to be a bit of a womanizer and can be a bit of a jerk, but when he's an honest face he's one of the purer folks [=TNA=] has. It helps that his real personality veers more toward the "honest face" bit.
* TheNicknamer: As a commentator, is pretty fond of testing out {{Red Baron}}s on certain talents. So far the two that have stuck are the Bearded Terror for Eric Young (though World Class Maniac is still more prevalent) and the Tenth Wonder of the World for [[Wrestling/KiaStevens Awesome Kong]].
%%* PecFlex

* AdaptationalWimp: In the video game's story mode, Suicide starts by winning the World Heavyweight Championship, and after his beatdown from LAX and return under the player's created persona, he goes on to win the World Tag Team titles with Eric Young, then the X Division title before finally winning the World Heavyweight title again at the end. As an actual wrestler, Suicide is a 2-time X Division Champion, but compared to completing a TNA Triple Crown, that's still a step down.
* BuildingSwing: The idea was there, at least, in his first couple appearances, where he swung in on a rope to attack the Motor City Machine Guns.
* BrassBalls: The character is all about being willing to risk himself to get a victory, even moreso than other X-Division wrestlers.
%%* ChestInsignia
* CombinationAttack: An unintentional one against with Low Ki against DJ Z when Manik had the latter in a reverse Indian death lock while the former was kicking him in the chest. Manik eventually grabbed Low Ki and gave him a northern lights suplex, while DJ Z was still locked up.
* CoolMask: Though James Storm doesn't like or understand why he keeps wearing a mask after his face and identity have been revealed, he decides Manik can stay masked, so long as it's one of his choosing.
%%* DarkAgeOfSupernames
* DarkIsNotEvil: Surprisingly, he's never willingly been a heel. The closest came when he was kidnapped and presumably brainwashed into joining The Revolution.
* DistressedDude: No one seemed too concerned when James Storm and Sanada kidnapped him.
* GroinAttack: One of Suicide's signature attack is smashing his opponent's forehead against the second turnbuckle, or when someone is interfering his match, he would smash his opponent's forehead against the other man's nuts. This does not result in DQ because the interfering party is not officially in the match, therefore a low blow against them is not prohibited.
%%* MaskedLuchador
%%* LatexSpaceSuit
%%* MadeOfIron
* NinetiesAntiHero: A *very* late-to-the-party one, as he debuted in 2008. But with his uber-edgy name, skull motif, and brooding tendencies (at least when he *does* speak), he would've fit right in on the pages of an early Image Comics issue.
* OneManArmy: Jay Lethal, Consequences Creed and The Motor City Machine Guns all worked together to beat him and still could not do it.
* PartsUnknown: Was billed from there.
* PutOnABus: Until they find someone else to portray him, presumably.
* TheBusCameBack: In May 2013.
*** Back on the bus in early 2016 as TNA let TJ Perkins' contract run out.
*** Taken out of mothballs for a One Night Only PPV several months after Perkins' departure, then again later in the year.
* RefugeeFromTVLand: Is supposedly an original character from a TNA video game brought to life. His name change, his portrayal by several different wrestlers before Perkins was revealed as the "official" him, and James Storm's desire to give him a makeover, all make more sense when we remember he's basically a create-a-wrestler. Reverted to this and the original Suicide gimmick after Perkins' departure.
%%* RuleOfCool
%%* StealthHiBye
* SuddenlyVoiced: Thanks to James Storm, so he can have another mouthpiece for his "Revolution". Seemingly dropped upon Perkins' departure, as Manik was reverted back to Suicide.
* YouLookFamiliar: Suicide has interacted with wrestlers who previously portrayed him multiple times, including Christopher Daniels having to prove he wasn't behind the mask once Frankie Kazarian returned to the role and tag-teaming with TJ Perkins, who suited up as Manik again for the occasion.
!!! Cody Deaner/Deaner (Christopher Gray) 「2009」 「2018–present」
* BattleCouple: With ODB in his first run with TNA.
* TheBusCameBack: Returned to the promotion in 2018, albeit making occasional appearances before rejoining full time in March 2019, which also made the official debut of Cousin Jake.
* DeepSouth: His previous gimmick was a Canadian version of the trope before joining VBD.
* FaceHeelTurn: Betrayed Cousin Jake (later rechristened as Jake Something) and joined Violent by Design.
* KlingonPromotion: Became the new leader of Violent by Design (renamed The Design) [[spoiler: after killing Eric Young as a way to "Eliminate the sickness"]].
* OnlyOneName: After joining VBD, he now refers himself as Deaner.
* PowerStable: Violent by Design, led by Eric Young, and later, himself, rechristening it The Design.
* TagTeam: Previously with Cousin Jake in his current run, as The Deaners.
!!! Rob Terry/The Freak/Robbie T (Robert Terry) 「2009–2015」
%%* TheBigGuy (Face)[=/=]TheBrute (Heel)
%% Please separate these tropes.
* CoolMask: As part of the Menagerie, he wears a steel mask not dissimilar to one Kane used to wear.
%%* TheGiant
* MusclesAreMeaningful: Often cited as the worst member of the TNA roster, who should have been let go long ago. Kept on to play "enforcer with big muscles" to a variety of stables (The British Invasion, World Elite, The Shore, and now The Menagerie), and seemingly constantly believeable through all of that for nearly six years.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted with his one-time bro Robbie E.
** Wrestling/RobVanDam and [[Wrestling/BobbyRoode Robert Roode]] were both on the roster at the time, making for a total of four Roberts on the roster.
* RedBaron: The Freak.
** Robbie T.
* UnderwearOfPower: Though the freak is the circus strongman, making this less odd on him than even the other wrestlers.
!!! Tomko (Travis David Tomko) 「2006–2008」 「2010」
* BaldOfEvil: Though veered occasionally into the good side territory before his HeelFaceDoorSlam.
* BodyguardBetrayal: Against Christian in 2008. Didn't kill him, of course, as this is wrestling, but cost him his (second-to-)last ever TNA world title shot.
* TheComicallySerious: To Christian and AJ.
* DudeWheresMyRespect:
** Betrayed Christian in 2008 because Christian had promised that he'd become a big time star if he stuck with him yet it wasn't happening fast enough for his liking so he decided to take his chances with BigBad Kurt Angle.
** Attacked AJ for weeks in late 2009-early 2010 after having seemingly patched up their alliance off-screen because AJ [[DisproportionateRetribution didn't return a couple of phone calls]] after winning the title.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: When Robert Roode [[BadBoss berated his assistant at the time]] Traci Brooks for [[GreenEyedMonster supporting Kazarian]], claiming that [[StayInTheKitchen he owned her]], Tomko got right in Roode's face and shoved him down across the ring. This is despite the fact that Tomko had just beaten Kaz in a match, and Roode was at that point an occasional ally of Christian's Coalition, of which Tomko was a member. Ms. Brooks and the audience were very pleased with Tomko as he walked away.
** This only made it more jarring when he went after Karen Angle as part of his job as Kurt's SociopathicSoldier.
* NoodleIncident: His apparent past with Abyss as a prison guard.
* PutOnABus: In summer 2008, though it did stop once as he took part in a challenge Kevin Nash had set up for Samoa Joe.
* TheBusCameBack: For a feud with AJ Styles at the end of 2009, which was cut short when Hogan and co. arrived. He was soon put back on the bus for good.
* TheQuietOne: He could talk, but his voice was low and had a drawl, plus he's better at being scary-looking, so his teammates tended to do more of the talking.
* RedBaron: The "Man of Principles". He was mostly called this backstage, however, since on-screen he generally worked as a heel.
* RedOniBlueOni: Often had to calm his Coalition teammates down when they were in rages (mostly Christian).
* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: Prior to betraying Christian and AJ, Tomko was becoming incredibly popular with the fans. After joining Kurt Angle to become a bigger star, his stock {{iron|y}}ically plummeted.
* SociopathicSoldier: For Kurt Angle after turning on AJ Styles.
* StraightMan: Made an art form of shaking his head at some of the things his allies said or did (mostly AJ).
* TheStoic: Often stood behind Kurt or Christian and/or beside AJ with his arms either folded or rested on his hips, eyeing the audience or whoever their enemies were like his next prey.
* TattooedCrook: Known for his tribal back and shoulder tattoos as much as anything else appearance-wise.
* TookALevelInJerkass: He cemented his place among Kurt's collective of "[[CardCarryingVillain bad guys]]" with such acts as taking pride in bloodying AJ, helping shoot Christian through a glass table, and harassing Karen on her own talk show.
%%* UnderwearOfPower
!!! Douglas Williams (Douglas Durdle) 「2008」 「2010–2013」 「2014」
* TheAce: He can match Wrestling/AJStyles move for move and then get the better of him, he qualifies.
* {{Archenemy}}: The X-Division, who he [[strike:insinuates]] states loudly is a league of {{Spot Monkey}}s.
* ForeignWrestlingHeel: Fits this trope much better than Desmond as he actively hates American style aerial wrestling, as opposed to his European style.
* {{Hypocrite}}: As much as he talks about the glory of [[GoodOldFisticuffs ground and pound wrestling]], he's started using a Tornado DDT.
** Justified in that he didn't use the X-Division flyers' own medicine on them until that one point in the match where it became a finishing blow.
* PutOnABus: Hasn't been appearing that often very much anymore as he's been working and training wrestlers in OVW as he's a trainer there now.
** Officially removed from the TNA roster in June 2013.
* SuplexFinisher: Chaos Theory, which is a roll-through into a German Suplex.

%%* FragileSpeedster
* PutOnABus: Four months after the dissolution of the Aces & Eights, he was let go due to budget cuts.
* SanitySlippage: Seemed to go through a low-grade case of this in order to stand out and prove himself amongst his clubhouse brethren, becoming more aggressive in the ring and more eccentric and blunt in promo segments.
* WrestlingFamily: His father is Gerald Brisco, and his uncle is the legendary Jack Brisco.
!!! Crimson/Mayweather (Anthony Mayweather) 「2010–2012」 「2013」 「2015」 「2017–2018」
%%* BadassInANiceSuit
* BigLittleBrother: Introduced to TNA by Amazing Red as this. Because of this he was initially dubbed Little Red before the official name came out Crimson. Was eventually {{retcon}}ned when he returned to Impact using his real name and history as a soldier, though since he says he doesn't know his father, the "long-lost half-brothers" route could still be taken to preserve this if he and Red ever return at the same time…
* DarkIsNotEvil: Despite looking like a vampire, Crimson was fighting Immortal.
* {{Expy}}: TNA seemed intent on making him the next Wrestling/{{Goldberg}}.
%%* FaceHeelTurn: On Matt Morgan.
* GeniusBruiser: In addition to being very big and strong, he totally pwned Jarrett at submission grappling.
* GoodIsNotNice: As a {{face}} Crimson spends a lot of time beating people up.
* IronicEcho: Shortly after his debut, he says 'They are coming', right after taking out Abyss with his own weapon. Those are the very same words Abyss said preceeding the arrival of Immortal, only this time Red is refering to Fortune performing a collective HeelFaceTurn.
* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: He was the first person that terrorized Immortal, he lodged Abyss's own weapon into his back.
%%* LightningBruiser
* MeaningfulName: Crimson has red hair.
** He was Amazing Red's DarkerAndEdgier brother, crimson is a darker red.
* NonIndicativeName: Was initially dubbed Little Red before the Crimson name was revealed. It's a reference to being Red's BigLittleBrother.
%%* PowerTattoo
* PutOnABus: Shipped to OVW.
** TheBusCameBack for a short time, then he was put back on it and out of the company. Then it came back again in 2017 as part of the Veterans of War tag team with Wilcox.
* RedBaron: Literally, since forming a stable in OVW. The Red Baron of Ruthless Reconnaissance.
* UnrelatedBrothers: To Amazing Red.

* RealMenWearPink: As part of the [=BroMans=].
* RedBaron: Mr. Pec-Tacular.

See [[Wrestling/ChavoGuerreroJr his page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! Gunner (Chad Lail) 「2010–2012」 「2013–2015」
* AscendedExtra: Was first seen as a part of a duo of security guards around the Impact Zone, until the heel Immortal stable decided to use them more and more in the ring. Gunner stuck around, his character transitioned into a proper wrestler and he even became Wrestling/RicFlair's last TNA protégé.
* BloodKnight: One thing you can't question is what Gunner would be willing to do when he's dedicated himself to a cause, whether that be winning championships, defending a group, or destroying a hated enemy.
* TheBrute: For Immortal.
* CorruptCop: Became this in his initial run as a security guard thanks to the Hogan and Bischoff takeover.
* HardHead: He shrugged off having a cage door slammed into it by James Storm.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Gunner's the one who decided to take Samuel Shaw out of the insane asylum for a second chance. Shaw ended up betraying Gunner at Brittany's urging.
* PutOnABus: First to OVW for most of the year after Immortal. Then again in 2015 when creative had nothing for him after his feud with Samuel Shaw.
* TheBusCameBack: The first one did, anyway, when he returned before Slammiversary 2013 as James Storm's partner.
* UnderwearOfPower: After ditching the security gig.
!!! [[Wrestling/MattHardy ("Broken") Matt Hardy]] (Matthew Moore Hardy) 「2011」 「2014–2017」
See [[Wrestling/MattHardy his page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! DJ Zema Ion (Michael Paris) 「2011–present」
* DumbassDJ: Was this for the Bro-Mans.
* {{Jerkass}}: Showed no remorse over his actions during his heel run. To note, said actions include [[RealLifeWritesThePlot paralyzing Jesse Sorensen from the neck down]] and "[[{{Kayfabe}} taking out]]" the entire X-Division.
* ItsAllAboutMe: As a heel.
%%* NotInTheFace
* RedBaron: That Yung Go-Hard.
!!! Rampage Jackson (Quinton Ramone Jackson) 「2013」
* AbortedArc: Aside from the initial confrontation and agreement to a future match with Kurt Angle, the 2013 rivalry and buildup to his [[UsefulNotes/MixedMartialArts Bellator MMA]] fight with Tito Ortiz was tied into the Aces & Eights vs. Main Event Mafia feud via Ortiz' betrayal after Jackson joined the Mafia. No payoff ever came of either angle because…
** RealLifeWritesThePlot: Bellator had him and Tito Ortiz pulled from TNA programming so they wouldn't get injured prior to their fight and be forced to cancel. [[YouCantFightFate Didn't work out so well as far as Tito goes.]]
* TheDreaded: If Tito's had that reputation ahead of time, then this guy definitely did.
* {{Friendly|Enemy}} EnemyMine: His first major storyline with the company saw him become one of intended future rival Kurt Angle's Main Event Mafia brothers to combat the Aces & Eights.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Got in Kurt Angle's face upon his debut.
* PutOnABus: Noteable in that he put himself on the bus after the AbortedArc and RealLifeWritesThePlot examples above, because he disagreed with how management at the time was running things.
%%* ScaryBlackMan
* SharpDressedMan: As a member of the Main Event Mafia, though he had it in a military fatigue design as part of his "Street Soldier" image.
%%* TrashTalk: Actually pretty good at it.
* TheUnfought: Never actually got into a match. See AbortedArc and RealLifeWritesThePlot above.
!!! Jackson James/Garett Bischoff (Garett Bischoff) 「2010–2013」
%%* DeceptiveDisciple: To Kurt Angle.
* EasilyDistractedReferee: [[ObfuscatingStupidity Whenever Immortal needed it]].
* FragileSpeedster: Aside from his initial push, he was usually the fall guy in tag team matches and stable feuds.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: As a referee under the name "Jackson James". Made ridiculous mistakes (in Immortal's favour, of course) and people assumed it was just because he was new to the refereeing business.
* SmugSnake: Has inherited his father's smugness ever since he was revealed as a member of Aces & Eights.
* WrestlingFamily: His father is Wrestling/EricBischoff.
!!! Orlando Jordan (Orlando Mason Jordan) 「2010–2011」
* BlackComedyRape: Or maybe just really {{Narm}}y RapeAsDrama.
%%* DepravedBisexual: [[LowestCommonDenominator The worst of both worlds]].
%%* PutOnABus
%%* ScaryBlackMan
* WhereDaWhiteWomenAt: Subverted. His victims were pretty exclusively white, but only because 95% of Impact is white at any given period. The Pope, one of TNA's few black men in recent years, was actually one of his most frequent targets.
!!! Mike Knoxx/Knux (Michael Hettinga) 「2012–2015」
%%* BaldOfEvil.
* TheBrute: One of several with Aces & Eights.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: The name Knux was presented as a clubhouse nickname created by Wrestling/{{Aces And Eights|Wrestlers}}.
* WritingAroundTrademarks: This was done so TNA wouldn't have to keep referencing his original name, Mike Knox(x). Said original name has been relegated to CanonName status at best since.
* HeelFaceTurn / CharacterDevelopment: Started as a member of the heelish Wrestling/{{Aces And Eights|Wrestlers}}, becomes the founder of The Menagerie as a babyface. There was even a backstory surrounding this change which made perfect sense.
* LightningBruiser: For a man of his size and girth, Knux is extremely athletic. He even managed to impress Austin Aries when they squared off one-on-one a couple years after the armbreaking.
* MiseryBuildsCharacter: Part of his motivation for forming the stable. The other is their need to raise money for their carnival back home.
* RedBaron: Was briefly known as the Armbreaker while masked during Aces & Eights, shortly after having broken Wrestling/AustinAries' arm.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS / XtremeKoolLetterz: His character's original surname "Knox" had a second X added to it before coming to TNA.
* WrestlingDoesntPay: Subverted with the Menagerie. They're a wrestling traveling circus…but it's the ''wrestling'' part that pays for the ''circus'' part.
!!! Dr. Stevie Richards (Michael Manna) 「2009–2011」
See [[Wrestling/StevieRichards his page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! Robbie E (Rob Strauss) 「2010–2017」
%%* AnimeHair
%%* CoolShades
%%* HotBlooded
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Acts like the cast of ''Series/JerseyShore''.
* TheArtifact: Now that Jersey Shore's been canceled. But that isn't important now, as he's fit rather snugly well in as a legit competitor and has become the resident occasionally-[[LethalJokeCharacter Lethal]] JokeCharacter.
* LethalJokeCharacter: That Jersey Shore parody who's long outstayed both the show itself and his welcome? He's only a TNA heavyweight title reign away from being only the ''fifth Grand Slam champion'' in TNA history. And just prior to the Destination America relaunch he actually started talking about it—though since then he's been utterly worfed by Wrestling/{{Brooke|Adams}}.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Usually a {{Jobber}}, Robbie has won the X Division title, the Television title, defeated Jeff Hardy (via countout), and is now one-half of a damn good Tag Team Championship duo… with fellow JokeCharacter Jessie Godderz.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted with his one-time bro Robbie T, aka Rob Terry.
%%* RealMenWearPink: As part of the [=BroMans=].
%%* SmallNameBigEgo: Heel.
%%* UnderwearOfPower
%%* VerbalTic: Bro.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: He's afraid of clowns, if Crazzy Steve is an indication.

See [[Wrestling/JoeyRyan his page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! Samuel "Sam" Shaw 「2010」 「2012–2015」 「2017」
* AscendedExtra: His 2010 appearances included such one-shot roles as a masked Hardcore Justice assailant named Lupus and an unknown member of Wrestling/JeffJarrett's entourage back when Jarrett was pretending to be an MMA fighter.
* DontYouDarePityMe: All Brittany had to say to turn Samuel Shaw against Gunner was that Gunner saw Shaw not as a friend, but as a charity case.
* DrivenToSuicide: Tried to kill himself after Hemme initially rejected his advances. Which later lead to a straightjacket being put on him.
* GreenEyedMonster: After Christy Hemme decided they should keep things professional, he would become insanely jealous at any man that looked at or talked to her. This got him in serious trouble with Mr. Anderson, who stood up for Hemme and then conspired with her to get him committed to a mental hospital.
* IncestSubtext: It was heavily implied between him and his mother. His mother is a creepy redheaded woman named Christy, thus also implying that was why he was obsessed with Hemme.
* IrritationIsTheSincerestFormOfFlattery: From wearing Gunner's field uniform to getting tattoos in imitation of Gunner's? Gunner asked him if he ever tried being himself, only for Shaw to accuse him of not caring enough.
* RedBaron: The Creepy Bastard.
%%* StalkerWithACrush: To Christy Hemme.
* ThreeMonthRule: When he first met Christy Hemme he lived in his own apartment, but after he started feuding with Mr. Anderson he lived in his mother's house. Became really glaring when promo vignettes involving Shaw's storylines actually showed scenes from both locations.
* UngratefulBastard: Gunner got him out of the empty white room and straitjacket, giving him a second chance at life. Then he thanked Gunner by turning on him as soon as Brittany got into his ear about Gunner viewing him as a "charity case". This trope applies to both Shaw himself and to Brittany, who would've never had the chance to get with him were it not for what Gunner did.
!!! Jesse Sorensen (Jessy Ryan Sorensen) 「2011–2013」
* GameBreakingInjury: Suffered a injury at Against All Odds to Zema Ion that put him on the shelf for the better part of a year. He quit active wrestling so he wouldn't be at risk again, and started working backstage.
* JerkJock: Averted despite being a former High School QB and often seen carrying a football around, he's one of the nicer guys around.
* PutOnABus: Was moved backstage, he was officially removed from the TNA roster in June 2013. Then was let go from TNA not long after due to budget cost.

* FightingIrish: In his return as Aiden O'Shea.
* FinishingMove: The Boomstick, a simple lariat, which can appear more effective depending on [[TheatricsOfPain who sells it]].
** Could also be a case of NameOfPower.
* PutOnABus: To Japan, and apparently left there.
* TheBusCameBack: As Aiden O'Shea.
** And then bussed back out again as he quietly left with Billy Corgan.
!!! Bram (Thomas Latimer) 「2014–2017」
* ArchEnemy: First Abyss, then [[WeUsedToBeFriends Magnus]], and now TNA history. Eventually acknowledged that he {{hates everyone|Equally}}.
%%* AxCrazy
%%* BloodKnight
* ButForMeItWasTuesday: How he and the reinvigorated Magnus apparently view Monster's Ball matches. Just ask [[Wrestling/JeffHardy Willow]] and Abyss.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: After taking a beating from Decay for rejecting Rosemary (again), he turned up months later having cleaned himself up and joined forces with James Storm and Kingston in the Death Crew Council.
* ChewingTheScenery: Good God, when he falls into a rage…
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder via HairTriggerTemper: His claim to hate everyone isn't without merit, as he will end an alliance as quickly as it began in response to some slight or offense.
** When Magnus came through the back door and took a Feast or Fired briefcase that Bram had his hands on, he declared Magnus his enemy and even when the case he got turned out to be for the tag titles he betrayed Magnus rather than accept their friendship.
** When Eric Young tried to leave the company and take the TNA King of the Mountain title with him, Bram instantly deemed Young a coward and ended their alliance, challenging and beating EY for the title to send him out of TNA empty-handed.
** He and Eddie Kingston lost their temper with James Storm as soon as The Cowboy started making singles entrances again, leading very shortly to the end of the Death Crew Council.
* ContinuityNod: Eventually the DCC went after Decay, with Bram revealing he hadn't forgotten what Decay did to him and in fact joined DCC for the opportunity to get revenge.
* DareToBeBadass: The initial phase of his storyline with Magnus was all about him delivering a heel version of this as a response to Magnus' BadassDecay since becoming Dixie's champion.
* DisproportionateRetribution / RevengeBeforeReason: Got so upset with best mate Magnus swiping the Feast or Fired briefcase he was close to getting[[note]]with only Gunner's pull in his way until Magnus came in with a Tower of Doom spot[[/note]] that even when the case turned out to be for a tag team title shot and Magnus assured Bram he wanted him as his partner, Bram tried to take him out and end his career for it.
* GarbageWrestler: The self proclaimed "King of Hardcore".
* GreenEyedMonster / TheResenter: Mickie called him out as this, saying that the truth behind his reasoning for his betrayal of Magnus is that Bram is secretly jealous because Magnus has more to show for himself as a man than Bram ever will. Even if she's wrong, his palpable rage and envy over Magnus for taking an opportunity and getting the briefcase he thought was his plants him firmly into this trope.
* HatesEveryoneEqually: Has admitted that he hates absolutely everyone. This explains a lot of things, including the below…
* HeelFaceTurn: In 2016 he would challenge and defeat then-ally Eric Young for the King of the Mountain title to stop Young from taking the title with him on his leave from TNA.
* IrrationalHatred: Towards Magnus. You're his best mate, you better not get anything for yourself in life—like a family, or responsibilities outside of drunken bar fighting escapades, or bragging rights to an opportunity that benefits you both.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Outright hates Magnus' fiancée Wrestling/MickieJames, blaming her along with her and Magnus' son for Magnus turning "soft" instead of remaining the sadistic brute of their childhood days like he did. He even captured her and threatened to assault her in order to force Magnus to kiss his feet.
* UnreliableNarrator: If Magnus' entire career in TNA is any indication, he'd grown out of the "ultra-violent" phase kayfabe-wise [[BlatantLies since before he started in the company, let alone met Mickie]], so any claim that she's responsible for this falls on deaf ears to continuity.
* PowerTrio: Death Crew Council with Wrestling/JamesStorm and [[Wrestling/EddieKingston Kingston]] in late 2016.
* RedBaron: Because way too many super-violent wrestlers like to call themselves the King of Hardcore, Josh and Pope have traded that in for more unique nicknames for Bram such as the Chesterfield Plague, the Human Hate Machine, and the Human Nightmare.
* VillainTeamUp: With Eric Young in 2015-16. It ended in Bram's HeelFaceTurn.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: Him and Magnus big time as of 2015.
* WouldHitAGirl: Has proven that he absolutely hates the mother of his ex-best friend's child and is perfectly willing to attack her in order to get over on Magnus.
* WrestlingFamily: Was once married to Wrestling/{{Charlotte}}, the daughter of Wrestling/RicFlair.

* BloodKnight: Wrestles a somewhat roughhousing style and has been described as a loner who lives to train and wrestle.
* BoringButPractical: {{Subverted|Trope}} on the boring part, as he's a good enough athlete to get at least one impressive attack in any given match, but his focus is far more on battering his opponent than on showing off.
* CanonImmigrant: A carryover from Jeff Jarrett's failed Global Force Wrestling invasion of 2015, he impressed TNA management enough for them to bring him back in for additional work.
* EvilMentor: He and Everett have [[spoiler: in Everett's case, HAD]] one in Gregory Shane Helms.
* JackOfAllStats: He's got a decent high flying game, an aggressive brawling streak, explosive quickness, deceptive strength—yep, he qualifies.
* LonersAreFreaks: Not to the extent that hate machines or carnival horrors are, given that [[Wrestling/GregoryHelms Gregory Shane Helms]] is willing to mentor him, but he doesn't care much about socializing and hanging out with people and he has a crude, caveman-ish appearance and style. In this business, though, it's not to his detriment.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Despite looking like a skinny caveman he is capable of doing power moves to guys bigger than he is. If you're smaller than him, prepare to be manhandled.
* RedBaron: The Carolina Caveman, The Technical Savage.
* WildHair: The bun in the back is the only evidence of any grooming or maintenance of either his mane or beard.

!!! Brian Myers 「2015」 「2020-present」
* CombatPragmatist: Despite his insistence on being a "Professional" wrestler, he tends to do illegal maneuvers in the ring.
* EvilMentor: To Sam Beale, before the latter turned {{Face}}. Now serves as one to the Good Hands.
* GuestFighter: In his first run, he represented Jeff Jarrett's ''Global Force Wrestling''.
* RedBaron: "The ''Most Professional'' Wrestler".
!!! Pepper Parks/Braxton Sutter (Jesse Guilmette) 「2015」 「2016–2019」
* AscendedExtra: Made a few appearances as Parks on the One Night Only shows before signing on and debuting as Sutter.
%%* BaldOfEvil: with his 2018 FaceHeelTurn.
* CoolTeacher: Briefly became this to Allie when she started getting in the ring, until her Lady Squad superiors made sure to nip it in the bud before it could achieve the requisite RelationshipUpgrade. Instead they've stuck Braxton as the unwilling boyfriend of Laurel Van Ness.
* DeadpanSnarker: Part of his "No BS" personality is that when a heel is saying or doing something delusional or absurd, he won't hesitate to say so.
* FunWithAcronyms: '''B'''raxton '''S'''utter, though it's been used to emphasize that his character is about "[[InvertedTrope No BS]]".
* HenpeckedHusband: Was this to Laurel Van Ness, largely because he didn't even want to ''be'' her boyfriend but had to go along with it [[{{Blackmail}} so Maria Kanellis wouldn't destroy Allie's career]].
* SadisticChoice: Break Allie's heart by dating one of her evil superiors, or watch said superiors kill her career before it can get going. What to do, what to do…? Eventually sided with Allie.
* WouldntHitAGirl: Despite his loyalty to Allie, he won't even brush past Maria and her friends when they try to keep him away from her.
!!! Davey Richards (Wesley David Richards) 「2014–2017」
* AnimalMotifs: Wolves, shared with his former partner Eddie Edwards and, once she became part of his act, his then-wife Angelina Love.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Was the main contributor to the darkness of the Wolves as a duo.
* FaceHeelTurn: He and Angelina betrayed Eddie and Alisha by attacking them to cost Eddie his chance to get back the TNA World Heavyweight Championship from Lashley, feeling as though Eddie didn't do enough to keep in touch with Davey while he was injured.
* GoodIsNotNice: Even as a babyface, his promos and facial expressions combined with the wolf motif makes him comes off as a vicious warrior with a purpose.
* LargeHam: Very capable of this when speaking. This and Eddie's awkwardness on the mic is why he usually handled the promo department.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Wanted his last feud before he [[PutOnABus took off from wrestling]] to be with his best friend.
* SickeninglySweethearts: With Angelina Love, before both left the company.
!!! The Great Sanada (Seiya Sanada) 「2014–2015」
* TheAce: Can do fast, high flying stuff as well as various suplexes, including bridging {{suplex finisher}}s, and he even has a submission finish.
** BrokenAce: Has become this due to interpreting Wrestling/TheGreatMuta's endorsement as great pressure, causing him to eventually turn against Muta after a losing streak. Wrestling/JamesStorm didn't do him any favors by piling on and calling both him and Muta losers constantly.
* AntiVillain: As a {{heel}}, he's not really a bad person, he just found a string of bad luck, lost his X-Division title for the first time since coming to TNA, and got broken down by an opportunistic outlaw looking to start a revolution.
* BrokenPedestal: Views Wrestling/TheGreatMuta this way after Wrestling/JamesStorm's {{breaking speech}}es finally got to him, causing him to make a FaceHeelTurn by betraying his own mentor. {{Subverted|Trope}} as there's no evidence that Sanada's short string of losses ever caused Muta to look at him differently. The story mainly portrays Muta's encouragement and endorsement of Sanada as giving him undue pressure to succeed, though this seems to reflect Sanada's slowly-crumbling mindset about it more than anything else.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Won the X-Division Championship from Wrestling/AustinAries even before his TNA debut, then at said debut had an amazing PPV six-man tag with Wrestling/TheGreatMuta and fellow Wrestle-1 star Yasu Nakanoue against Bad Influence and Chris Sabin where he nailed his precision moonsault to pin Wrestling/ChristopherDaniels.
%%* NoShirtLongJacket
* PutOnABus: And took the Wrestle-1 partnership with him, as it ended at the same time.
%%* UngratefulBastard: Towards Muta.
!!! Mahabali Shera/Khoya (Amanpreet Singh) 「2014–present」
%%* TheBrute: Of the Revolution.
* CanonImmigrant: A carryover from one-season sister promotion Ring Ka King.
* InitiationCeremony: Whatever it was it resulted in his being renamed Khoya.
* MeaningfulRename: Khoya means "lost", representing his pre-Storm lack of identity in TNA. Commentators have played up how this constitutes disrespect to his culture on the part of Storm.
* TheDogBitesBack: Eventually got enough of Wrestling/JamesStorm's abuse for losing matches and decided to stand up and fight back against him. This became the undoing of Storm's Revolution, since Manik was his friend and Abyss slowly came to see how ridiculous Storm's antics were getting.
!!! Crazzy Steve (Steve Scott) 「2014–2017」 「2020-present」
* AbhorrentAdmirer: To any attractive Knockouts in the opposing corner from his—usually Wrestling/TheBeautifulPeople. It's been PlayedForLaughs.
%%* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}
* DepravedBisexual: Implied in Decay, where he is entirely overly affectionate with both Rosemary and Abyss.
* EvilLaugh: Until 2016, he never spoke, only laughed.
* FaceHeelTurn: Happened off-screen when he reconnected with Rosemary, who in truth has been his friend for nearly a decade.[[note]]Discussed during a kayfabe interview with members of the [=TNAsylum=] fan column website.[[/note]]
* HandicappedBadass: He's legally blind.
* HiddenDepths: When he actually gets to wrestling instead of fooling around with people he can be pretty potent. No longer hidden as of Decay.
* NonIronicClown: The Menagerie was accompanied by two, huge, scary clowns. Steve's about as non threatening as a wrestler can be though, provided you don't simply have an inherent fear of clowns like one of the Bro-mans.
* MonsterClown: Turned into this as part of Decay with Rosemary and Abyss.
* ShoutOut: As part of Decay, he had a bright red cross as part of his makeup and continually laughed, making him resemble one of [[ComicBook/{{Crossed}} the Crossed.]]
!!! Ultimate Tiger/Tigre Uno (real name unknown) 「2014–2016」
%%* AnimalMotifs: Tiger, fairly obviously.
* BridalCarry: Carries Gail Kim this way back into the ring after landing a crossbody on her in their match during the World Title Series.
%%* CoolMask: With ears and teeth.
* {{Expy}}: A cheapened example that TNA hasn't capitalized on even while pushing him, but as a veteran of Dragon Door Project with a tiger gimmick, he's automatically one to both [[Wrestling/SatoruSayama Tiger Mask]] and Wrestling/UltimoDragon.
* FragileSpeedster: Most of his arsenal involves flying and flipping around, but he's positively tiny.
* PutOnABus: A weird case of it where he wasn't even informed he was getting on the bus in the first place and only found out close to a year afterward.
* SecretIdentity: Like many a Mexican MaskedLuchador before him.
* WouldntHitAGirl: At first played straight during his match with Gail Kim, where he is seen pleading with the crowd for the first few minutes of their match. He eventually allows himself to fight back and land a few moves on her, even picking up the win.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Willie Mack.
* TenMinuteRetirement: He temporarily retired from wrestling when the doctors found out that he suffered a knee injury in ''Slammiversary 2020'' at the hands of Eric Young with a steel chair. It took weeks to have his knee recovered and having him medically cleared to compete so Scott D'Amore approves him for the championship match. This didn't stop Eric Young from attacking Swann constantly in the injured knee until he wins the Impact World Heavyweight Championship at ''Bound for Glory 2020''.
!!! Willie Mack 「2018–2022」
* {{Acrofatic}}: HOLY CRAP, is he ever! We're talking about a guy with the looks and physique of the Junkyard Dog and the skills and speed of Shawn Michaels! The guy can use the ropes as well as any luchador and yet can still hit hard as well.
* FinishingMove: A stunner.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Rich Swann.
* PutOnABus: Left Impact Wrestling in 2022 when his contract got expired.
* LightningBruiser: Ridiculously fast and agile for his weight, but he STILL has that weight to throw around.
!!! Josh Alexander (Joshua Lemay) 「2018–present」
* TheAce: As the current top face of Impact Wrestling, he's a full package who can do all the wrestling styles: Technical, High Flyer, Brawler and Powerhouse.
* CanadaEh: He's from Toronto, Ontario.
* DefeatingTheUndefeatable: Managed to put an end to Joe Doering's undefeated streak in ''Against All Odds 2022'' and defending the Impact World Championship at the same time.
* {{Expy}}: Of Wrestling/KurtAngle, given that both have competed in X-Division matches and have the same signature ankle lock submission move.
* FinishingMove: C4 Spike, a sitout lifting double underhook facebuster.
* HeelFaceTurn: After his former partner Ethan Page died against the former's own alter ego The Karate Man (but Page got better after joining AEW), he turns Face for the first time in his career as a singles competitor.
* PapaWolf: Very protective of his son Jett when Moose arrived to his house and threatened both Jett and the mother of his, Jade Chung.
* RedBaron: "The Walking Weapon"
* RedIsHeroic: Wears red in his wrestling gears, and is on the good guys' side.
** RedIsViolent: Back when he was a Heel.

* TagTeam: Previously with Ethan Page in The North.
* TakeThat: In the March 10, 2022 episode of Impact Wrestling, he made a harsh critique to Matt Taven for the latter's lackluster run as the ROH World Heavyweight Champion. No lies detected for Josh, that's for sure!

See [[Wrestling/EnzoAndCass this page]] for tropes dedicated to him.
!!! Steve Maclin (Steven Kupryk) 「2021–present」

* TheAlcoholic: He's first shown drinking a beer during his pre-debut vignettes.
* {{Catchphrase}}: "Tag'em, bag'em and mayhem for all!"
* TheCynic: Maclin is very jaded and doesn't trust anyone surrounding him. Justified as he was a war veteran before becoming a wrestler.
* {{Eagleland}}: As a Heel, he represents The Boorish side. As a Tweener, he's a Mixed Example, as his ruthless side from his Heel days still remains.
* HeelFaceTurn: Debuted as a Heel, until Honor No More invades Impact Wrestling. At first, they blamed him for the attacks on the roster in backstage, but when Eddie Edwards is revealed to be the attacker and siding with Honor No More, Maclin decides to fight for Team Impact as a {{Tweener}}.
* FaceHeelTurn: However, this change doesn't last long as of the March 10, 2022 episode of Impact when he attacked Rhyno with Eddie Edwards' kendo stick and reverts himself back as a Heel.
* OfficialCouple: Currently married to fellow Impact castmate Deonna Purrazzo.
* SkeletonMotif: His entrance video, jackets and wrestling gear contain skull imagery for a good measure.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With Moose. They only team up just to make Sami Callihan's life miserable, but otherwise they don't agree with each other during their alliance.

* EightiesHair: Spots a nostalgic mullet fitting from that period in the current age of wrestling, no less.

* AchievementsInIgnorance: She managed to become Knockouts champion without even knowing it.
%%* TheApprentice: To Maria.
* AscendedExtra: Initially appeared a few times as a jobber or ONO Knockouts Knockdown contestant prior to signing a contract in 2016, most notably to Gail Kim and the Dollhouse.
%%* ButtMonkey: Of Maria's Lady Squad.
* CharacterDevelopment: Maria's annoyingly-mousy personal assistant has grown enough of a spine that she's now gone from a helpless novice to being able to stand fearlessly with or against the same demon her previous self actually awakened.
* DarkerAndEdgier: After seeing her best friend Rosemary apparently killed by Su Yung and her [[OurZombiesAreDifferent undead bridesmaids]], Allie [[BreakTheCutie gives into the darkness and snaps]], becoming angry and vengeful during her match with Su at ''Under Pressure''. Post this match, she's regained her mostly cheerful and friendly demeanor, but is significantly more serious and focused than before. [[SignificantWardrobeShift Her ring attire has also changed]] from [[PinkMeansFeminine pink]] to black.
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: [[spoiler: Allie died on Rosemary's arms and vanished to Bunny Heaven after having her throat slashed by Su Yung.]]
* TheDogBitesBack: Or at least tried. Problem is, she was still under contract to ''Maria'', so she still got kicked back down very frequently. Until Braxton Sutter finally cut the bullshit by saying no to Laurel and revealing all the Lady Squad's blackmail, at which point he and Allie bit back so hard it '''crushed''' the Squad.
* {{Expy}}: Became a [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Buffy Summers]] Expy in her feud with Rosemary in the indies, even coming out to the show's theme song and being referred to as "the Demon Slayer".
* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler: By the consequences by selling her soul Father Mitchell to save Rosemary in a BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor situation, Allie begin acting in a strange heel manner for weeks after Bound For Glory 2018. What that price was and it was indeed handing over her soul to “the Devil himself”, as Allie has now joined the Legion of Su Yung, taking out her former ally Keira Hogan and leaving with The Undead Bride.]]
* FreakOut: Has one leading up to ''Under Pressure'' in May 2018 after seeing Rosemary taken out by Su Yung.
* KickChick: Two of her big power moves are the "Kickass Dropkick" - drop-kicking a opponent who's bent over in the corner up the backside, sending them crashing into the ring post - and a superkick she calls the B.S.E. - Best Superkick Ever.
* KickTheDog: Maria forced her to give up the Knockouts title. Then started frequently bullying and humiliating her. Then wouldn't even let her have a boyfriend or a wrestling coach. She and Braxton eventually said to hell with them.
* NoIndoorVoice: Her incredibly high-pitched mousy voice is clearly meant to invoke this. It's been slightly toned down since her HeelFaceTurn.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: At the culmination of Dark War saw Allie shoving Rosemary aside by TakingTheBullet after she was distracted by Kevin Sullivan and ends up with her throat slashed by Su Yung's bladed glove a la Freddy Krueger of Nightmare on Elm Street. In real life, Allie ended her contract with Impact Wrestling after her character's on-screen death.]]
* OddFriendship: Very much so with Rosemary. A hyperactive cheerful girl with a bunny motif in her graphics and a maniac in face paint who calls herself the Demon Assassin.[[note]]Accounting for the backstory of their relationship in Canada when Allie was known as Cherry Bomb and how it actually started Rosemary's transformation into that demonic persona adds [[DefeatMeansFriendship yet another element]] to this.[[/note]]
* PetTheDog: Received this from the fans when they chanted her name after she took a baton to the head for the Knockouts Championship. This was the beginning of her going from Maria's annoying town crier to an endearing kid-like (but not childish) babyface.
* ProfessionalButtKisser: As Maria's apprentice. Tended to backfire when Maria was angry at something because she didn't know when to stop. Since winning the Knockouts title and being forced to give it up it did nothing but backfire, and she eventually had enough.
* TokenGoodTeammate: In the Lady Squad, she was more like somewhere between this and an indentured servant.
* TookALevelInBadass: Her "Demon × Bunny" partnership with Rosemary has seen her gain a much more serious personality over time. The true level was turning up in Rosemary's demonic face paint at ''Under Pressure'' and causing Su Yung to flip her shit. She put on a hell of a fight, too.
!!! Marti Bell (Martibel Payano) 「2015–2016」
* ButtMonkey: Was usually the first (and most frequent) Dollhouse member to be sacrificed as the fall girl in a fight and to be abruptly silenced in a promo segment.
* CuteAndPsycho: Of course, she's part of the Dollhouse.
* IndirectKiss: Invokes this trope for {{squick}} factor with a jawbreaker that she carries around, occasionally licks, then sticks in the mouth of fallen foes.
* PerkyFemaleMinion: She's been this to Taryn Terrell and Awesome Kong. Averted when it came down to her and best friend Jade, as the Dollhouse broke up when Marti, Rebel, and Jade all three got a #1 contender's match against each other and Jade won.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Her character surname Bell/Belle (the latter being how it's spelled in the indies).

* AscendedFangirl: Atypical of TNA, she was open about her desire to become ''WWE'' women's champion, at least until Knockouts division was formed.
* CanadaEh: Yeah, listen to those promos with fellow Canadians Bobby Roode or Eric Young.
%%* DarkActionGirl: To be Trinity's rival, it is required that she zigzags this.
* LadyInAPowerSuit: A {{fanservice}}y suit was one of her more frequently recurring attires.
* MsFanservice: She was a Playboy playmate.
* NewJobsAsThePlotDemands: Started as wrestler but TNA had no interest in a serious women's division and lost interest in man vs woman matches, so she became a manager, then the assistant to Director of Authority Dusty Rhodes, then an interviewer, then a referee, road agent responsible for promoting TNA on other shows and scouting new talent, then it finally got a serious women's division but still had no interest in pushing Brooks so...
* PutOnABus: She eventually came back, complaining about how TNA kept saying they had nothing for her and how she was going to take out her frustrations on the other knockouts, then disappeared again.
* SexySecretary: For Robert Roode, she also wore a pair of…
* TheVamp: Bobby Roode used her to seduce Eric Young into his services. It took awhile, [[IdiotHero as all subtlety went over his head though]], Brooks eventually resorted to much more aggressive tactics, such ripping his clothes off.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Started as part of a bisexual trio (namely, the woman in Orlando Jordan's entourage) and has had some hints since, such as her storyline with Madison Rayne.
* AscendedExtra: Beyond being known for working on the independent scene (and the first One Night Only Knockouts Knockdown) under her real name, she had a prior TNA run in 2010 as the female valet for Orlando Jordan.
* BrokenPedestal: Her advice to the Impact Zone? "Never meet your heroes."
* TheCutie: Even the "remove every ugly person from the world" Beautiful People think she's cute. They still don't like her very much and used Brittany as a shield when confronted by Havok.
* DepravedBisexual: Between her storylines with Madison Rayne and Samuel Shaw, it seems she's taken a cue from Orlando.
* {{Fangirl}}: Of Madison Rayne.
* FinishingMove: The Shining Star Press (a rope handspring moonsault).
* GirlNextDoor: Very much played up as this around her debut.
* HardHead: Subverted in TNA. Despite being known to headbutt out of desperation, an angle revolved around Madison Rayne telling her to stay away from the ring after receiving a concussion from a Beautiful People attack.
* PutOnABus: At the end of the year.
* SoundtrackDissonance: For what basically amounts to a valet/high profile {{jobber}}[=/=]manager, "The Reign That Never Ends" is an amazing theme.
* StalkingIsLove: Her "relationship" with Samuel Shaw started with her hovering around him despite his protests that he wasn't interested. Eventually he gave in and turned on Gunner for her when she accused Gunner of viewing him as a charity case rather than a friend.
* UngratefulBastard: Getting Shaw to turn on Gunner for her counts 100% for both her and Shaw, as Gunner is the only reason Shaw was able to get out of the mental hospital long enough for Brittany to be able to see him.
* WrestlingFamily: Her father was a former wrestler.
* WomanScorned: She got rejected by Madison Rayne.

%%* DarkActionGirl
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Two of them during the 2014 UK tour. If you watch Xplosion, you saw her debut in a match against ODB that turned into a fight in which both girls got disqualified for pushing around a referee and then kept going after each other for a minute after that. If you just watch Impact, you saw her for the first time when Chris Sabin summoned her to the ring in an utter demolishing of Velvet Sky.

See [[Wrestling/JackieGayda her page]] for tropes dedicated to her.
!!! Chelsea Green/Laurel Van Ness (Chelsea Anne Green) 「2016-2018」 「2021-2022」
* BetaBitch: One of two to Maria Kanellis.
* {{Blackmail}}: She and her Lady Squad partners extorted Braxton Sutter to be with her instead of Allie. Eventually Braxton revealed, ''during the wedding, upon saying "I don't" and thus rejecting Laurel completely,'' that the "or else" condition would be getting Allie fired.
* FantasticFragility: Having a history of being legitimately injured in her wrist a few times in her career, she later used that knowledge as a FakeWeakness, and it shows by betraying Mickie James with it.
* ForeheadOfDoom: She has a sizeable forehead, which is emphasized by her hairstyles and by her frequent usage of said forehead as a weapon.
* HappilyMarried: To fellow wrestler Matthew Cardona. Also a BattleCouple for Intergender Tag Team matches.
* LadyDrunk: After being rejected by Braxton Sutter, and again after being rejected by Grado.
* MeaningfulName: In the sense that Laurel Van Ness seems like a distortion of Laura Dennis, the real name of the wrestler portraying Allie.
* RedBaron: The second to use "Hot Mess" as a nickname.
* ReimaginingTheArtifact: In her return to Impact, Chelsea reimagines her "Hot Mess" gimmick by amalgamating her sane and insane gimmicks into one.
* RichBitch: Constantly makes reference to her father being some sort of UnclePennybags paying her way through life.
* TagTeam: With Deonna Purrazzo in VXT.
* TheBusCameBack: Returns to Impact Wrestling in ''Slammiversary 2021'', this time under her real name of Chelsea Green.
* UseYourHead: Headbutts are a frequent part of her arsenal.
* VillainousBreakdown: At one point she was a complete disheveled mess, crying and drinking herself into a psychotic stupor ever since Braxton dumped her. She hadn't even showered or changed out of her wedding dress since then, something which Sienna {{lampshade|Hanging}}d. Eventually got out of it with Grado, then back into it when he dumped her for being Canadian and thus not giving him a Visa to stay in the United States. Found something of an equilibrium after that; she's not drinking herself to death anymore, and she can actually wash and dress herself as well as compete in matches now, but the lipstick and party-hardy demeanor clearly gives away that she's not all there.
!!! Hamada (Ayako Valentina Hamada Villareal) 「2009–2010」
[[quoteright:188:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/2f5c23a1e5f6d0cbb313fff94828c44e.JPG]]
* ActionGirl: Which got her an invitation into World Elite, not that she took it but Hamada did give Eric Young a run for his money.
* AmbiguouslyGay: Even beyond the LesYay inherent in most Women's Divisions, Hamada seemed more than a little interested in Taylor, had expressed no attraction towards men, and dressed much more masculine than the average Knockout.
%%* BadassLongcoat: Her entrance attire.
%%* [[RedOniBlueOni Blue Oni]]: To Awesome Kong and Taylor.
* ButNotTooForeign: Half Mexican, half Japanese, one hundred percent awesome.
* DemotedToExtra: She and Kong were stripped of the Knockout Tag Team Title because they had not defended them in thirty days, even though that statement was a bald faced lie.
* GarbageWrestler: Her first match on Impact saw her introduce a table for the heck of it, and she kept up with these antics for quite awhile.
* LadyOfWar: Well, sort of. She was the most reserved and conservative of the knockouts (okay, Saeed may have been more conservative but was not reserved in any sense of the word). That may just be to the fact she did not get a ton of focus. Hamada did show some tendencies to go overboard in matches but that never seemed to be reflected in anything she did when not competing.
* LastNameBasis: For some reason it wasn't considered there are quite a few "Hamadas" in wrestling, herself related to some of them.
* MadeOfIron: Was probably the toughest Knockout in the company at the time she left.
* OddCouple: Her and Taylor.
* PerpetualFrowner: Rarely smiles.
* PutOnABus: She left the promotion after being stripped of a title belt, again.
* TheQuietOne: Since she doesn't speak much English.
* ReligiousBruiser: She can occasionally be seen knelt in prayer when not wrestling.
* SheCleansUpNicely: Ayako Hamada is pretty hot when she relaxes and quits looking so scary.
* TheStoic: In most TNA matches, she's known for yelling a fair bit in Mexico.
* UseYourHead: Grab head, slam hers into it.
* WrestlingFamily: Has a father, brother and sister who are all wrestlers.
!!! Havok/[=JesSICKa=] (Jessica Cricks) 「2014–2015」 「2019–present」
[[quoteright:216:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bddd116af4db0fc26b28810cd1859ee4.JPG]]
* AscendedExtra: Made a one off appearance for a knockouts only pay per view... which ended up airing six months later, [[InvertedTrope well after her official debut]].
* BadassCape: Added one to her entrance attire in November 2014.
* BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: [=JesSICKa=] is the Brawn to Taya Valkyrie's Beauty and Rosemary's Brains in Death Dollz.
* {{Catchphrase}}: As [=JesSICKa=], she often says "Cuz' I'm sick!".
* CharlieBrownFromOuttaTown: Havok was nowhere seen during Rosemary and Taya Valkyrie's journey in the Undead Realm. [=JesSICKa=] is found instead, but the resemblance with Havok is already present.
* CoolMask: As Havok, she wore a gas/training mask in her entrance.
* EvilLaugh: Doesn't make her gimmick out of it, but she does have this.
* {{Expy}}
** Of Awesome Kong, if only by technicality due to Kong predating her in TNA by several years. That said, their gimmicks are markedly different, with the only clear similarity being their build-based dominance and the fact that they both seem to not like talking in TNA. Even then, Havok had already spoke more in her second Impact appearance than Kong did in the entirety of her TNA run and much contemporary to it, English words anyway.
** More or less acknowledged when Kong made her unexpected return to TNA, even changing her braids red to be more like Havok.
* FacialMarkings: A green or black stripe across her eyes and around the back of her head. Hair shaved off on the sides so you can see.
* FinishingMove: Appeared to be an Air Raid Crash when she first arrived, but as of her Impact debut, it's been a choke slam known as the Harlot Slayer.
* HeelFaceTurn: She turned Face after her alliance with the then Heel Wrestling/SuYung was fractured, and cemented once both of them killed Father James Mitchell (he suddenly got better, through).
* KnightOfCerebus: A non-lethal variation. She injured a {{Determinat|or}}ing Wrestling/GailKim in one episode of Impact Wrestling, only for the latter return to compete. It got Havok the title.
* {{Not H|imself}}erself: This is Taya and Rosemary's reaction when they found Havok in the Undead Realm, only to reveal that she's changed and goes by the name of [=JesSICKa=], whose personality is exactly the opposite of Havok.
* LaserGuidedKarma: While attempting to flee the sinking ship that is TNA by taking part in NXT tryouts, news broke on the internet that someone had unearthed a ridiculously large amount of racist/homophobic tweets she made years ago and had never gotten around to deleting, because TNA didn't pay attention to that kind of thing. It is expected that she will go back to defending TNA before long.
* LastNameBasis: She's not the only Havok in wrestling, nor even the only one in the history of TNA, though in this case no one is going to confuse or associate her with any of the others.
* PowerStable: As Havok, she joined the current incarnation of Decay when she and Rosemary win the Impact Knockouts Tag Team Championship.
* PowerTrio: As [=JesSICKA=], with Rosemary and Taya Valkyrie in Death Dollz.
* RoseHairedSweetie: [=JesSICKa=]'s hair color is pink and is a happy go-lucky girl, compared to Havok's black hair and penchant for destruction.
* SignatureMove: An elevated hammerlock cradle, usually dropped into a spine buster. When she debuted the move on Impact, she ambushed Gail Kim and separated her shoulder by using the move to ram Kim into the ring post.
* SpikesOfVillainy: Her entrance attire is bristling with pointy bits.
* TheBusCameBack: She returns to Impact Wrestling in 2019 for a second run.
* WrestlingMonster: The promotion's resident powerhouse with a terrifying motif.

* CuteAndPsycho: Was part of the Dollhouse, it comes with the territory.
* FinishingMove: ''Eat Defeat'', an inverted stomp facebreaker, adopted from Gail Kim; and ''Protect Ya Neck'', an arm-trap inverted overdrive
* OneSteveLimit: Not to be confused with Alexa Jade, who was a jobber knockout.
* PerkyFemaleMinion: She and Marti were this to Taryn Terrell and Awesome Kong. Then she broke out and became what people know her as as Mia Yim…
* RedBaron: "The War Queen", "The HBIC (Head Baddie In Charge)".
* TheBusCameBack: Returned to Impact Wrestling in ''Under Siege 2022''.
** PutOnABus: Only for her to leave again in October the same year, due to her returning to WWE one month later under the rule of "[[Wrestling/TripleH The Man With the Three Haichs]]" as paraphrased by Matt Hardy.

* BloodIsTheNewBlack: Got split open when Awesome Kong threw a chair at her, after which, bleeding kind of became her thing.
* GarbageWrestler: As the "Hardcore Knockout".
* HollywoodVoodoo: She started out gyrating and doing all sorts of pseudo magic when she was brought in by the "Voodoo Kin Mafia", whom previously had ''nothing'' to do with Voodoo besides the name. She continued to dress the part and be called the "Voodoo Queen" as their valet but dropped the so called "voodoo" quickly enough.
* ImpersonationGambit: On the September 25 (taped September 17), 2008 ''TNA Impact'', she disguised herself as Raisha Saeed and hit Awesome Kong with a chair and then took off the hood to reveal who she really was. Raisha then made her way out revealing that she had been tied up backstage.

* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Has become this to her husband in his Broken brilliance.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She and Matt have their baby son Maxel, who they bring with them everywhere they go.
* ManipulativeBitch: Was the one who convinced her husband Matt Hardy to turn heel to take the World Title from Ethan Carter III.
* TreacherousAdvisor: Convinced Matt to betray Jeff as part of the brand, anyway. Has thus far proven to be loyal to Matt himself, however.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Her getting Matt to go heel for the title in 2016 was one of the turns in his path that resulted in his new Broken state.

* DistaffCounterpart: To her own husband's Die Hard gimmick, no less. She even gets her own kendo stick called [[ICallItVera Kendra]].
* FaceHeelTurn: She did switch sides after hitting PCO with the kendo stick to help her husband Eddie to win.
* GarbageWrestler: As paraphrased by the commentators: "SHE'S HARDCORE!"
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She's blonde and in the side of good. This is no longer the case after her FaceHeelTurn.
* HappilyMarried: With Eddie Edwards, at least before everything involving Sami Callihan [[HeWhoFightsMonsters got a hold of his soul]]. Became this again during the post-Honor No More feud with PCO.
* RedBaron: "The Hardcore Half Pint"
* UndyingLoyalty: To Impact Wrestling. This is further exemplified when her husband Eddie Edwards turned Heel and betrayed the very brand he used to be the "Heart and Soul" of it by joining Honor No More. While she still loves Eddie, she remains in the side of Impact Wrestling, not wanting to be affiliated with Honor No More. She was so against Eddie's involvement in Honor No More that she threatened to divorce him if he didn't end the faction.

* MsFanservice: She was "dressing" in police tape before Orlando Jordan made it (in)famous…though she never did it quite to the extent he did and mostly limited it to photo shoots.
* TheRival: She was both the manager of and competitor to Kid Kash. Yes, she alternated between both on a weekly basis. Also to Alexis Laree and ''especially'' to Traci Brooks, whom she had a famed rivalry with before and after TNA.

* BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: Taya Valkyrie is the Beauty to Rosemary's Brains and [=JesSICKa=]'s Brawn in Death Dollz.
* FaceHeelTurn: Turns out her face run was nothing but a ruse set off by Taya and her husband Johnny Impact by just playing mind games to Brian Cage from the beginning.
* HeelFaceTurn: Initially was presented as a heel before taking several months off, but as a result of Knockouts Champion Tessa Blanchard disrespecting Taya's fellow ''luchadoras'' during an ''Impact'' tour of Mexico, Taya came back aiming right for Tessa and the championship.
* OddFriendship: With Rosemary, so much that in her send-off scene has both hugging during her arrest to the [[Wrestling/{{WWE}} Stanford Maximum Security Pennitentiary]].
* PutOnABus: No longer working for Impact Wrestling after being arrested when Taya revealed that she shot John E. Bravo during his wedding with Rosemary.
** TheBusCameBack: Officially returns to Impact during ''Multiverse of Matches'', challenging Deonna Purrazzo for the AAA Reina de Reinas Championship.

* NiceGirl: She's one of the most pleasant Knockouts in the roster.
* WritingAroundTrademarks: In her early years, her wrestling attire featured the face of [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Pikachu]]. However, she changed it to an emoji-like smile once she joined Wrestling/AllEliteWrestling and subsequently Impact Wrestling. It stick for the better.

* HeelFaceTurn: Cemented after saving Killer Kelly from the attacks of Gisele Shaw and Savannah Evans after weeks of intense rivalry tied with a common denominator: Chains.
* MotherRussiaMakesYouStrong: As a Russian-born wrestler, expect her to be this. Averted unfortunately due to real-life events that forced her "Russian Dynamite" gimmick to be downplayed (see the Impact Wrestling trivia for more details).
* TheRival: Has become one towards Jordynne Grace, which considers her an equal.

* DudeWheresMyRespect: Returned as Kingston's backup plan against Konnan and the new members of LAX out of resentment that Konnan had Homicide stationed at a Mexican strip club and didn't even call Hernandez to be part of it.
* FantasticRacism: Played with. Konnan's gripes with his former 3 Live Kru stablemates which led to him forming LAX would later translate into an overall hatred of ''gringos'', even to the extent of trying to burn the United States flag. However, as soon as he left they began embracing the popularity of the Latino Nation even amongst the non-Latino fanbase. Hernandez later came to regret the flag-burning incident, acknowledging that his father once served in the US military.
* GangBangers: Especially when managed by Konnan or King.
* OneDegreeOfSeparation: Were both included as members of the Beat Down Clan for a short time in 2015, but failed to reunite as Homicide was injured when Hernandez showed up, and the latter's bad contract actually killed the BDC angle.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: How this team was put together. Homicide was initially teamed up with Apolo, but the latter was released due to no-showing an event. He ended up teaming with Machete for a few months before Hernandez was called in instead.

* BashBrothers: When they ''were'' trying to beat the crap out of you. It's what a tag team is, yes, but notable because of how good they were at it and the fact that they briefly kept it up even as singles stars until Roode turned.

* TheCameo: Despite being "fired" from LAX after only three months, Machete made another short run of appearances a year later to help push the wheelchair-laden Konnan around and help Homicide and Hernandez retain the tag team titles. This was explained as him being a member of their Latino Nation support team.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Both Héctor Guerrero and Kingston were initially briefly opposed to their Latino counterparts before later being established as part of LAX with trusted authority over the main tag team. In the latter case it was kind of a farce.
* DarkestHour: Ortiz and Santana hit this when both Konnan and Homicide vanished, they lost the tag team titles, and nobody was telling them anything about what was going on with the crew's extracurricular activities. Then Kingston appeared and revealed that the latter two were both in a safe spot after being jumped and business was doing just fine except for the two's losing streak. It would turn out that this whole sequence was engineered by King and Homicide, who had taken out Konnan temporarily and then tried to steer the young pups away from him before deciding whether to take them out too.
* EnemyCivilWar: Kingston got tired of waiting for Konnan to step aside and let him take the lead, Homicide resented being stuck in a strip club in Mexico, and Hernandez wasn't even called up to be part of the relaunch of LAX due to issues he and Konnan had had behind the scenes over the years. So the boys ended up becoming resentful of Konnan's decisions and they wanted him out of there, while also trying to manipulate Ortiz and Santana into leaving his side as well. When the young boys ultimately decided to stick with K-Dogg, they went after them as well. Despite this, while King, Homicide, and Hernandez are referred to as the [=OGz=] in official Impact material as well as have a separate theme song, they still called themselves LAX and claimed 5150 at first, before eventually embracing the [=OGz=] label starting at ''Slammiversary''.
* FantasticRacism: Played with. In both incarnations, Konnan would start out having them use a hatred for ''gringos'' as their fuel to achieve success but after being solidly entrenched and getting over with the fans they would phase that out and actually start being cool with white people and others who weren't antagonizing them. Was able to do it twice because Konnan had departed before they made the shift the first time, making it easy to believe he was to blame for the racism.
* GangBangers: Heavily suggested with the first version of LAX, confirmed with the second run. This boils down to the more cinematic character-based style of backstage vignettes run by Impact Wrestling in the post-TNA era.
* HeelFaceTurn: See FantasticRacism above.
* TagTeam: The stable has had two notable championship-level duos over its history. Homicide and Hernandez in its first run, and Ortiz and Santana in its second. Now the two teams are actively against each other in an EnemyCivilWar engineered by King due to him, Homicide, and Hernandez resenting Konnan's decisions.
* WouldHitAGirl:
** Had a disguised member of the Latino Nation frequently attacking Christy Hemme to stop her interference during a short feud with the Rock and Rave Infection. When the Infection raised the issue of Spike's edict against man-on-woman violence, the same Latino Nation member continued attacking Hemme…and then unmasked to reveal [[SubvertedTrope the voluptuous woman known as Salinas]].
** That said, prior to the edict being placed, Hernandez did hit the Border Toss on Gail Kim that one time, and Homicide did drag his favorite "snowflake" Lauren Thompson by the StandardFemaleGrabArea when she downplayed his advances.
* WrestlingDoesntPay: They're wrestling revolutionary activist gangsters. They can't be getting paid enough with any one of those things to be doing all four.

* HijackedByGanon: Midway through the Coalition's run, it got hijacked by Kurt Angle and turned into his Angle Alliance in a long and convoluted plot by Kurt to screw Christian over as a title contender.

* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Unless you want to take a beating, that is.
%%* PowerStable
* PowerTrio: The original foundation of the group before its name came about, with MVP, Lashley, and Kenny King running roughshod over TNA in 2014.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: It helps that the four-man "Music/WuTangClan of ProfessionalWrestling" (MVP, Joe, Ki, and Homicide) have so many like-minded friends and associates in the business, because that's ultimately what's saving this stable from sharing the fate of Aces & Eights through yet another talent hemorrhage.
** Unfortunately, this very same trait is what inevitably killed the Clan. Shortly after leaving Wrestling/LuchaUnderground, Hernandez was signed back to TNA to take part in the BDC storyline. The problem is, ''his contract with LU hadn't quite expired yet.'' When this eventually came back to LU, the ensuing contract dispute forced TNA to drop Hernandez as well as scrap several weeks' worth of BDC taped angles. MVP, who encouraged the deal on both sides, was also released in the fallout. Between their releases, Joe and Ki's departures, Lashley's unceremonious exit from the group and Homicide's injuries, the BDC was literally reduced to just Kenny King, effectively cutting the stable. King himself departed not long afterward.

* CrapsackWorld: Storm seems to have adopted AJ Styles' last worldview of TNA—namely that it's a poorly-managed company where heroes never win. He takes it further, though, outright becoming the villain in order to collect what he feels is his just due.
* {{Cult}}: It's gotten comparisons to similar stables from Wrestling/TheWyattFamily (via WWE fans) to Wrestling/KevinSullivan's Army of Darkness (via Storm himself).
* DefectorFromDecadence: What ultimately ended the stable. Following Khoya's MistreatmentInducedBetrayal and HeelFaceTurn retaking his name of Mahabali Shera, Manik and Abyss became more and more reluctant to attack Shera on Storm's orders (though Abyss hid it better, what with not being the friend who brought Shera in and all). Eventually they got tired of being used to carry out Storm's vendettas and so they decided to walk out on Storm, then take him out to help Shera during the two's grudge match before going their separate ways. Sanada was already PutOnABus back to Wrestle-1 at this point so he wasn't part of it.
* DisproportionateRetribution / ThePowerOfHate: James Storm's overall motivation since the heel turn that led to his starting the stable.
* InitiationCeremony: Whatever it is, it seems to involve being beaten into submission and having your identity changed in some way if Storm sees fit (so far the only person who's largely stayed the same is Abyss; Khoya's the result of a name change, Manik's had a makeover, and Sanada's been outright turned into a Great Muta ripoff).

Both factions were formed because the leader felt like there was a need to make a change, both leaders have no problem getting into vicious and hardcore fights, and both coat themselves in the language of rebellion. However, Storm's group is acting on a selfish cause, was forged and has operated by manipulative means, and believes that fans shouldn't have their heroes, while Galloway's Rising advocates and fights for the fans to be able to determine those heroes by merit in the middle of the ring.

* ArchEnemy: They share a three-way mutual hatred with the Broken Hardys and Decay.
* ContinuityNod: Bram's return as part of DCC seemed to instead be a [[ContinuitySnarl snarl]] towards the storyline he had going on with Rosemary and Decay where they attacked him for rejecting her in the woods and seemingly left him for dead. Then DCC turned their attention to attacking Decay a few months in and Bram revealed he joined DCC in the first place to get revenge on Decay. Crazzy Steve later referenced the fact that Decay were the ones who beat Beer Money out of TNA (with Bobby Roode heading out for NXT shortly after losing the tag titles to Decay) so Storm could easily want revenge against them too. Though they never referenced Kingston's relationship with Jade in real life and other companies, the latter feuding with Rosemary as the blue to her red.
* CrapsackWorld: The DCC fancied themselves anonymous champions of justice for the downtrodden and outcast, carrying an aesthetic that crosses between ''ComicBook/VForVendetta'' and ''ComicBook/MenInBlack''. Storm and Kingston in particular had a beef with people being overlooked in the business for not fitting a certain corporate image, feeling they've been hard done by in this manner for years.
* EvilVersusEvil: Despite being heels themselves, they would rather take out other heel groups than team with them. Just ask Decay, who DCC have plenty of reasons to hate as it is. Also, Eli Drake and Tyrus.
* FaceHeelTurn: Storm and Bram were Faces before launching this group.
* ThePowerOfHate: Kingston hates the business for holding him back because he doesn't look or talk like a company poster boy. Bram straight up wants revenge on Decay. Storm sympathizes with both causes — and has hinted that he wants another shot at the TNA World Title, what with the group attacking Eddie Edwards on Impact and threatening Lashley on Twitter during their respective latest reigns as of early 2017.
* PowerTrio: Storm is the central figure and obvious leader, even if he'll deny it on Twitter. Still, all three have reputations as dangerous men.
* TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized: Storm's second attempt at this type of stable in as many years, though with a far more solid foundation this time around. Billy Corgan was supposed to be the "unjust authority" targeted by this revolution, but he ended up being forced out of the company before that could happen.

[[folder: Dixie Carter]]
!!! Dixie Carter-Salinas
Heiress with lots of time on her hands. Became the President of TNA Wrestling following her family's acquisition of the company in early 2003. First started making on-screen appearances in 2009. Likes to tweet. Not to be confused with [[Series/DesigningWomen Julia Sugarbaker]]. As of August 12, 2016, she willingly stepped down as President and selected Billy Corgan as her replacement. Her new official title became Chief Strategy Officer (and as majority shareholder, she remained Chairwoman of the Board of Directors). Unfortunately, as Corgan's appointment was InNameOnly, Dixie remained in power until the majority purchase of TNA by Anthem Sports and Entertainment in January 2017, when she was promptly KickedUpstairs onto the advisory board of Anthem subsidiary Fight Media Group and into minority ownership.
----
* AlternateCompanyEquivalent: She comes across as a bizarre union between Wrestling/{{Vince|McMahon}} and Wrestling/StephanieMcMahon. As in, ''an uncomfortably awkward mismatch of the worst parts'' of Vince and Stephanie [=McMahon=].
* UsefulNotes/AmericanAccents: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Dixie]]. It definitely adds to her charm.
* ArchEnemy:
** In Kayfabe— Wrestling/HulkHogan, Wrestling/EricBischoff, Wrestling/JeffJarrett and the rest of Immortal as a face, Wrestling/AJStyles, Wrestling/{{Sting}}, [[Wrestling/MontelVontaviousPorter MVP]], etc. as a heel.
** In RealLife— Jesse Sorensen, Wrestling/{{Daffney|Unger}} and many other disgruntled former employees she seriously wronged in some way. She would very much like to be one to Wrestling/VinceMcMahon, if [[UnknownRival he acknowledged her in the slightest]]. Billy Corgan joined the lineup in late 2016 as she had effectively screwed him over as well.
* AuthorAppeal: She is apparently a big reality TV fan, hence the appearances of so many veterans of ''Series/{{Survivor}},'' ''Series/JerseyShore,'' and why ''Series/BigBrother'' veteran Jessie Godderz once claimed she's one of his biggest cheerleaders in the company. But you know she's a ''really'' big fan when reports come in about her filming several pilots for a reality TV show based on her life.
* BadBoss: By all accounts, both on-screen and in RealLife. Just look at the below tropes for numerous examples, and it's plainly clear that this woman has no idea how to run a ''business'', let alone a wrestling promotion, with how callously she treats those under her employ, with little regard for their safety. Say what you want about the WWE or Vince [=McMahon=], but they value the safety of their performers above all else — it's bluntly stated by everyone involved with the business that Vince will ''never'' make a performer do something that he himself wouldn't do. Meanwhile, Dixie has no issues taking money from a wrestler's paycheck to pay for medical procedures for injuries done on the job — and there is no excuse for this, as TNA under her watch was backed by a multi-million dollar energy company that can easily front the money at a moment's notice. It only gets worse from there.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Her Dixieland / Carter Kingdom shtick since turning heel in 2013 was built on this. Unfortunately, like most of the heel tropes here, this was as true in real life as ever. The nadir of this was the news involving the secret rehiring of Wrestling/VinceRusso. Let's put it this way: in a time where they need to negotiate on a new contract with Creator/SpikeTV in a matter of months in order to stay on the air, Dixie and her Creative/Talent VP were willing to rehire the notorious writer who most TNA fans as well as Spike executives themselves hate with a passion, and lie about it to everyone for months — ''including the very wrestlers whose careers in the company are guided by their creative direction and the discretion of the fans!''
** The sad part about this is that Dixie is probably the greatest source of nepotism in the history of the company, and that's accounting for the fact that this company was founded by the Jarretts — not-so-much to replace WCW as it was to put the spotlight on Jeff. Her misplaced loyalty to industry veterans desperately trying to keep the spotlight on themselves had become a severe detriment to the company. It's very clear that even Jeff was disgusted by how things were going, as indicated by his departure after failing to buy back the company. Oh, and that secret rehiring of Russo up there? Probably had to do with why the cash value in Spike's offer to renew their TV deal with TNA wasn't to Dixie's liking. Yet there ''was'' still an offer on the table. One which Dixie repeatedly tried to special-plead Spike into doubling or tripling until they got tired of her and just called it off, then tried to backtrack and accept the original offer when it was too late. TNA was forced to shop around for a new network after that, and have since been reduced to either lower level cable stations or Twitch streaming to air their shows, never reaching anything close to the heights they were at with Spike.
* DealWithTheDevil: She became the proverbial devil in her heel run, offering top guys help and perks to turn around and follow her agenda. It ended up working on half the heels on the roster, but only managed (and needed) to corrupt one babyface — Magnus, who became her new hood ornament as TNA World Heavyweight Champion.
* DearNegativeReader: You would think the president of a nationally broadcast wrestling promotion would have more important things to do than pick a fight on Twitter with an [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment online critic over a vlog]]. You would be wrong.
* DistaffCounterpart:
** To Ted Turner. Dixie is what's referred to on the street as a "whale" or "money mark"; if you manage to win her loyalty, she will shower you with funds and support over the objections of her close advisers.
** Arguably to Wrestling/VinceMcMahon. Appeared to be neutral if not altrustic, before revealing her petty tyrannical side, just as he did. Her heel-turn storyline with AJ Styles seems to be a composite expy of Vince's storylines with Wrestling/StoneColdSteveAustin and Wrestling/CMPunk, respectively.
* FaceHeelTurn: Arguably a revelation at that.
** HeelFaceTurn: After recovering from the table slam, courtesy of Bully Ray, no less.
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: While she picked up the VillainBall to make it easier, there was almost nothing Dixie Carter could do on the date Bully Ray set for her table trip short of not showing up for work at all. Her own personal Twitter account was even hijacked to advertise it!
* FemaleMisogynist: According to several former TNA Knockouts, Dixie goes out of her way to be needlessly unpleasant to female employees. One particular story comes from [[Wrestling/LisaMarieVaron Tara]], who dedicated a lot of time and energy and money to hyping up a TNA event in Chicago via her restaurant, then told Dixie about it, the latter's only response being "I heard." [[UngratefulBastard Not even a "thank you" or anything. TNA talent were then instructed to promote another restaurant in the area.]] Understandably, she wanted to punch Dixie in the face.
** A little more elaboration on that: according to several reports, this is partially out of resentment for the fact that the Knockouts' success was due to Dutch Mantell, who was one of Jeff Jarrett's people. [[ItsAllAboutMe Essentially, she's mean to the Knockouts because they're aren't a result of any of her ideas or those of her people.]] However, the ''really'' nasty treatment didn't start until Hogan and his lot came and, despite their supposed "big-name" status, the Knockouts still drew higher-rated segments.
%%* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Arguably.
* GoodIsDumb:
** Even as a face, she made such obtuse decisions as sitting down the entire roster [[WithUsOrAgainstUs and telling them to step their game up without questioning her]] in a real-life meeting aired on television heading into the Hogan/Bischoff Regime, and not even bothering to punish a psychotic monster for carving up her reigning champion with a nail board and torturing backstage workers with a branding iron ''[[ItsAllAboutMe until he put his hands on her]]''. Of course, she became far more [[GenreSavvy competent]] upon turning heel, as it's allowed her to embrace this more selfish side of her and toss it back in people's faces.
** The "working relationship" storyline with Wrestling/JeffJarrett's Global Force Wrestling was a ''ridiculously'' bad look for her. First the man she put in charge of ''Impact Wrestling'', Bully Ray (see HeelRealization for why that would ever happen), gets taken out backstage, after which Jarrett, who she just inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame and who's only now starting to get GFW off the ground as a wrestling product, promptly walks in and offers to run the show week-by-week, which she accepts without hesitation. The first week he's running the show, he brings in a host of GFW talent to immediately insert themselves into TNA's title pictures, including vacating and putting up his King of the Mountain Championship—along with #1 contendership to the TNA World Heavyweight Championship—in the titular reverse ladder match, with both TNA and GFW talent. [[Wrestling/DrewMcIntyre Drew Galloway]], one of TNA's hottest acquisitions and probably their top guy in the King of the Mountain ladder match, gets taken out mysteriously backstage the same way Bully Ray did. Who ends up winning the match? [[Wrestling/JustinGabriel "The Darewolf" PJ Black]], a GFW wrestler. The writing is on the wall as to what this actually is. Yet Dixie can't see it, happily co-signing on everything Jeff does. Josh Mathews can't see it, not even bothering to interview a single GFW wrestler in his investigation on TNA's [=YouTube=] channel — and this is despite the fact that he himself has already previewed an episode of ''Impact'' that he acknowledged was '''[[DevilInPlainSight outright billed as TNA vs. GFW]]'''. In fact, the '''only person''' saying the obvious truth even once — is Dixie's corrupt entitled [[{{Kayfabe}} nephew]], the TNA World Heavyweight Champion himself, Ethan Carter III. And because she's a face now while he's still heel, she doesn't even believe him. By the time the truth comes out and the hostile takeover is officially launched, not only is no one surprised but Dixie, half the fans are cheering for GFW and Ethan is so disgusted with his aunt doubting him on such an obvious truth that he washes his hands of the whole deal when later asked to fight for TNA.
** After a team of TNA guys takes out the GFW invasion, Dixie awards the teammates a chance to earn a shot at Ethan's title at Bound for Glory, which is won by team captain Drew Galloway. When Ethan starts openly questioning the hype around Galloway — not even the decision to have the match, but ''the hype around Galloway'' — the easy justification Dixie and Galloway offer is that Drew fought to defend TNA in its "darkest hour" and Ethan didn't. This despite the fact that, again, Ethan was right about Jarrett all along, and that ''he beat back the aforementioned title shot won by PJ Black and kept GFW away from the World Heavyweight Title while Dixie was still blindly supporting Jeff's every move'', something she still has yet to give him any credit for. Then she responds to Ethan's further questioning by basically throwing in the Hardy Boys in the perfect position to put the screws to Ethan and still be seen as the faces — Matt getting a place as the third competitor in the match, Jeff being inserted as the guest referee just a week after [=EC3=] let him go as a "personal assistant", with BFG taking place in their home state. When this predictably happens and Ethan declares Dixie dead to him as result, then pulls a RulesLawyer and gets an injunction declared on the world title forcing Matt to relinquish it, no one sheds a tear for anyone involved. The only saving grace is that this was used as the prelude to Dixie and [[Music/TheSmashingPumpkins Billy Corgan]] "coming up with" the [[UsefulNotes/TheWorldCup FIFA World Cup]]-style tournament for the championship that TNA had taped most of the matches for months ago.
* HeelRealization: Credits Bully Ray's powerbomb of her through a table surrounded by the cheers of the entire TNA roster as what woke her up to what she'd done to the company over the years, even giving Bully the job of being "the law" in TNA. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that as soon as Bully gets taken out mysteriously backstage in an off-screen attack, she promptly puts her trust in someone with obviously deceitful goals, most likely out of sheer stupidity, which also doubles as HorribleJudgeOfCharacter.
* HopeSpot: As of August 12th, 2016, she has stepped down as President of TNA. Her replacement? BILLY CORGAN!!
* ItsAllAboutMe: Moreso than Vince, if the Internet is to be believed. For all his rants on TV and his surrounding of [[Wrestling/CMPunk glad-handing, nonsensical douchebag]] [[YesMan Yes Men]], Vince was always willing to put his ego aside when there was business to be done and lots and ''lots'' of money to be made. Dixie, on the other hand, has made it clear both onscreen and arguably in RealLife that if something good is happening in TNA that isn't coming from her, then it isn't worth mentioning.
* MeanBoss: By all accounts, if you're not an established ring veteran, TNA management will treat you like dirt and intentionally put you in serious danger for minor increases in audience share. Very few TNA employees, current and former have anything good to say about her, the only reason she isn't criticized as much as Vince is that (A) TNA contracts explicitly forbid saying anything bad publicly about her on pain of dismissal, and (B) she hasn't done anything as publicly blatant as the Wrestling/MontrealScrewjob to really open the floodgates. Some have even gone on record to say that she might be even ''worse'' than Vince. The confirmation from AJ Styles that she was the one who low-balled him during contract negotiations, causing the ultimate departure of the heart and soul of the company, is a further nail in the coffin of her image.
* MrsRobinson: Er…? Has a strange way of appearing quite cozy with guys who she puts trust in to carry the company. Though things have never gotten intimate to anyone's knowledge (although it has been rumored for quite a while, to the point of becoming a question asked in a few shoot interviews with ex-TNA talent), her closeness with certain men in TNA over the years has been downright {{shipp|ing}}able. This backfired horribly against…well, really against Wrestling/AJStyles, when Wrestling/ChristopherDaniels and [[Wrestling/FrankieKazarian Kazarian]] decided to use it as part of a plot to ruin his life.
* PointyHairedBoss: All Dixie had to do was manage TNA's financial services with JJ, not take it away from him and run it into the ground just so she could play businesswoman.
%% * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: What she has appeared to be for so many years, with her "motherly Southern belle" image.
%% * RichBitch: What she's at least turned into following her FaceHeelTurn.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: Dixie is not the keenest intellect around — having been swindled repeatedly by the likes of Bischoff and Hogan — but the company in general enjoys this. Wrestling/{{WCW}} failed because they alienated fans to the point that they were a financial sinkhole and TBS sold them down the river; Wrestling/{{ECW}} was financially mismanaged and had a product that was too violent to get mainstream attention; independent promotions have paper-thin profit margins and fail all the time if they simply don't draw; the Wrestling/{{WWE}} and Wrestling/RingOfHonor have to answer to stockholders, network executives and fans and could conceivably fail if people just stop watching. TNA has a guaranteed timeslot on Spike (or used to; apparently even Spike had their limits) and are financially propped up by a major energy company owned by Dixie's father (also used to; even Dixie's family had their limits), this makes Dixie essentially a law unto herself and means that, unless TNA becomes a huge liability, will be funded if people watch or not.
* SpoiledBrat: As many people note, Dixie treats TNA as more of a plaything to pass the time with than an actual business and as a springboard to getting her own reality show. A lot of her actions scream of an attitude playing to her ego—she hates anything in TNA that's successful that isn't a result of her or a member of her personal circle (see: the Knockouts). When you're a trust fund baby who isn't going to have to worry about money, regardless of whether the promotion folds or not, you're apparently allowed to act like that.
* SpotlightStealingSquad: Has become this since her heel turn, and it's kept up even through her loss of control over wrestling operations.
* StupidEvil: Evidently in both {{Kayfabe}} and RealLife. Even after so much consequent loss, she still refused to learn her lesson regarding all of her actions that made her HatedByAll.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: No, AJ Styles did not take her breath away just looking at him in a magazine. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that she would reveal the man who did; Magnus.
* TooDumbToLive: She hired every single person that was on the cover of ''Literature/TheDeathOfWCW'' and allowed them free reign over her company. There's a reason people say TNA is dying a slow death.
* UnknownRival:
** Twitter in general. Special mention goes to [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment Noah Antwiler]] and [=420Chan=] for abusing the [=#AskDixie=] hashtag to lewd and comic effect. Also, RD Reynolds of ''Website/{{Wrestlecrap}}'', said to already be in the process of writing another book about TNA's eventual collapse.
** Then there's the aforementioned relationship with Vince and the [=McMahon=] family in general. Dixie and TNA can make all the potshots they want, but they're barely a blip on the radar as far as the WWE is concerned.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: With Wrestling/AJStyles, Wrestling/{{Sting}}, and Wrestling/JeffJarrett most notably among others.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: With Team MVP running her out of wrestling operations and Magnus recruiting Abyss as his ally to keep the World Heavyweight Championship, she became this to Magnus. For a long time the only person loyal to Dixie was [=EC3=], but that ended after her HeelFaceTurn when she reappeared down the line. She got wrestlers willing to fight for her to stave off company invasions after that, but it's not exactly the same.

[[folder: Billy Corgan]]
!!! William Patrick Corgan
Yes, the frontman for Music/TheSmashingPumpkins. A lifelong wrestling fan, he was hired prior to the jump to Pop as the Senior Producer of Creative & Talent Development. On August 12, 2016, he legitimately succeeded Dixie Carter as TNA President.
\\\
Or not, as it would later be revealed that he was made TNA President InNameOnly. He would later sue Dixie and TNA over it, and was eventually paid off just before Anthem purchased TNA. Not long afterward, he purchased the NWA.
----
* FullNameBasis: Although more often known in general culture by his musical identity of Billy Corgan, he uses his full name in wrestling-related media (TNA/Impact and NWA).
* PyrrhicVictory: While Corgan!TNA didn't pan out, his investments did manage to save the company long enough to move past the Dixie Carter era with new ownership and management, as well as establish enough credibility for himself in the wrestling world to buy the classic NWA instead.
* RagsToRiches: In stark contrast to the RichBitch that is Dixie Carter, he has had a pretty tragic life, having grown up in a horribly abusive home, spending much of his childhood taking care of his disabled brother and dealing with severe and at times near-suicidal depression. Then he went on to achieve fame and fortune with the Smashing Pumpkins, some of which he used to gain a credible position and make a major investment into TNA in its latest DarkestHour in 2016.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Kayfabe-wise, he is willing to make friends with and put his foot down against both Faces and Heels alike to make the right decisions for the product. Behind the scenes, he's been helping maximize most of the characters on this page who had "–present" next to their names and he invested his own money into making sure TNA had enough funding to run past ''Slammiversary 2016'' despite already having power over creative. It's pretty telling that even on-screen, one of his first acts was to help Dixie fix one of her own mistakes (turning the [=EC3=]/Hardys BFG world title fiasco caused by her thankless attitude toward her own nephew over a period of several months into UsefulNotes/TheWorldCup-esque World Title Series tournament that was pretaped to fill up the show's last remaining Destination America airdates).
