Impact Wrestling History
After the World Championship Wrestling (WCW) came to an end in 2001, the concept of TNA Wrestling was born. After the end of WCW, the World Wrestling Federation or the WWF became the only wrestling production being nationally televised in the United States. Vince Russo who joined Jeff and Jerry Jarrett in 2002, coined the name "Total Nonstop Action".
Initially, TNA broadcasted weekly pay-per-view shows which served as the company's main source of revenue. At that time other promotions were holding monthly pay-per-view events. Most of these shows were held at the Tennessee State Fairground Sports Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. It was nicknamed the "TNA Asylum".
