DEADLOCK Watch This #275

Once upon a time, TNA had a weekly pay-per-view show. You never knew what was going to happen, or who would show up. This is a prime example.

NWA TNA 2003 - Raven vs AJ Styles: NWA World Championship Match

On this episode of Watch This, we take a look back at one of the many NWA World Heavyweight Title shots given to Raven at the time. This time, it's against current champion, and Vince Russo's boy, AJ Styles. A 'clash of styles' makes this one interesting, says Mike Tenay, and also says us!

But, of course, it's NWA TNA, and that means EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED.

Watch here!

That match was so funny because if AJ was just going to kick out of everything, what was the point of the distractions?

Toy Biz and Marvel toys were the same company. Marvel Toys became the name because the 6” Marvel figures became insanely profitable. Hasbro bought the rights to Marvel figures so the company had to try to stay afloat using indie comic toys and TNA
