This PPV was FALSE ADVERTISING!

TNA Hardcore Justice 2011 is a horrible PPV. It’s most likely the third worst show they’ve ever done. None of the matches were good and some were down right bad and not suitable for a paying customer. There was no hardcore matches meaning this PPV did not live up to its name. The main event was Sting Vs Kurt Angle but even that ended up with horrible Hogan shenanigans. It resulted in a massive backstage blowup between Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff!

You know what's amazing? I watch all of these MarkyD videos and sometimes I just have them on in the background. But the second I hear 'Swanton' my head snaps back and I'm all ready for the Jeff Hardy monologue. It's turning into a Pavlov's Response thing.

Wow it’s crazy how they managed to kill both the Pope’s and Angelina Love’s characters with terrible storylines. This is when TNA was dead. What used to be the best wrestling company around became a joke.

He's a unique talent, with a real level of star power who belongs near the top of any card. A pity then that he is, by most accounts, an utter arsehead who claimed COVID vaccines are more dangerous than the disease itself, manages to burn bridges all around him wherever he works, and worst of all has been called out as a part of the Speaking Out movement.

[@2011nphelps]

True, aries is a great worker. Problem is, he's a massive asshole and no one wants to work with him

[@ItsAVolcano]

Will never understand why TNA didn't try bringing in some of the luchadors who'd been in ECW like Psycosis or Juventud who were in CMLL at the time and could still go rather than trot out the most decrepit looking bastards possible.

[@Toadsage77]

Great idea, they would have fit the X division like a glove. I wish my boy Super Crazy had made regular appearances.

[@speedwaynutt]

Because at this Point it seemed they were killing off the X Division

[@Markyd123]

Especially as they’d all wrestled at tna some time before. I guess they wanted the big names but it wasn’t ecw without some lucha aspect!

[@lewisaino]

​@@Toadsage77Even AAA could have helped with TNA

[@Nessrox444]

I think it might be because when people think of ECW they don’t think of the lucha, they think of the trash fire wrestling and the super old guys who won’t go away

[@EoR_2B4GOT10]

I think Angel Said in an interview that at every TNA show there were several guys drunk. So I never act suprised when I see botches.

[@allanshawa7489]

The Jeff Hardy monologue here is the best because when he says Mr. Anderson, the two stare at each other in the video.

[@Nessrox444]

The problem with TNA was never its talent. It was its owner and it’s creative.

The only cool thing Matt Morgan ever did... have cool names for his finishers. Hellevator and Carbon Footprint. 😂

[@THESERIOUSLYSMILE]

Looking back at it, I can't help but wonder if RVD had it in his contract that he has only lose clean a limited number of times, because it's absurd the way he was booked to not take a god dn pinfall even from the guy they where literally giving an undefeated streak at the time, in an attempt to push to the top of the card.

[@NYGiantsfan1029]

Ok two things. 1). Jesus the bound for glory tournament. The most over booked convoluted tournament I’ve ever seen in wrestling. 2). I gotta admit you got a chuckle out of me when you added the extra Anderson during your Jeff Hardy shtick 😂

Is Crimson the only person to kick out of the 5 Star Frog Splash? Why is the BFG Series all over the PPV? That should be only for Impact TV episodes, until the finals.

[@henrygvidonas9573]

Hoo boy, Kurt Angle in 2011... Off the sh!t, but still on everything else. A test allegedly showed traces of blood in his Vicodin stream around this time...

[@ciscoak9074]

That lionsault-Pele kick was obviously a botch but the move actually looks kool as fuck lol. It would be a pretty dope finisher...its crazy how when a show is just bad, it literally brings even the best performers down to its level lol. Seriously tho I wanna see what that springboard Pele would look like if it was actually done properly as a non botch move.. I feel like aj was either going for a lionsault or that backflip reverse ddt that he usually does in the corner..abyss and his awkward ass was most likely supposed to be laying down but aj being clutch as always probably saw his ass on his feet as he is upsidedown, and just kicked him out of instinct lol. He was actually probably hoping abyss would catch him but he was a lil too far back.

[@nabinkhadka788]

He should review that Extreme Rules 2021. When the most extreme thing in that match was ring rope breaking

[@jrk22233]

Funny how a promotion who had a reputation of doing a bit more hard-core matches then necessary does a payperview with hard-core in the title with little hard-core

[@dacobylaw4721]

I actually thought that AJ Styles was supposed to do that reverse DDT he always does, but for some reason, it was botched, and AJ just said screw it that's the end of the match.

[@jeste4187]

The whole raven on bischoff’s desk was golden. Loved it so much.

[@TheFunklin]

At first I thought maybe all the botches were because they switched from a six-sided ring to a four-sided one but then looking it up they switched almost a year and a half before this pay-per-view

[@xymoriintus]

Funny how even in 2010 the crowd would just sit there and stare without reacting. What's the point of even going to a wrestling show if that's how you react?

🤔 Angle and Sting were doing great things until Hogan makes it about himself while Russo and Bischoff both give awful creative advice. That's the distillation of TNA's journey from 2009-2014.

[@DWtechfan]

TNA actually did a few decent ppv shows but this wasn’t one of them. This was Vince Russo at his nonsensical height where storylines really didn’t have to make much sense. The BFG tournament was the best part of this show but even that was botched with that Crimson vs RVD match. Crimson was one of the biggest missed opportunities in TNA and they could’ve built him into a top star. He was a little too bland as a character and couldn’t talk too well but given the mic and opportunity to improve, he could’ve easily been something different for the main events.

[@dhall888]

[@fumpr84]

Yeah, this is around the time I gave up on TNA; the BFG series was a complete waste of time as they made Joe of all guys into a jobber and complete joke and the guy who was undeservingly running away with it wound up taken out at the very end with an injury angle cause they apparently only realized just then "Oh, we can't have this very green and not over guy challenging for the world title at our biggest show, oopsies" SMFH, thus rendering the entire damn series a waste of time. And the Immortal stuff was dumb AF too, as they had the guy who was their biggest enemy their entire existence in Anderson join them cause... He's an asshole? Then they had Angle join, even though his well known biggest nemesis on and off screen in Jarrett and Karen were also in it, it was completely ridiculous and reeked of the worst version of WCW, where nothing made any sense and the creative was like they just pulled names and ideas out of a hat before every show and went "Ok, we'll do that this show", just awful.
