#8 Rob Van Dam
Rob Van Dam signed with TNA in 2010, upon learning that WWE would only want him to return to a full-time schedule.
RVD was pretty much the hottest free agent in wrestling at the time of his signing, in fact, he had been for several years, having parted ways with WWE in the summer of 2007. RVD's debut with TNA had been suspected by many for months before it happened, with at one point Hulk Hogan even offering Rob a TNA contract live on the air on a radio show in early 2010.
The ever-popular RVD debuted to much fanfare on the March 8, 2010 episode of Impact Wrestling, where he defeated Sting in less than 10 seconds. His debut was strangely handled, but it wouldn't kill the momentum he already had and after just 6 weeks with TNA, RVD would defeat AJ Styles for the World Championship.
Rob had a very successful Championship run and would also hold the X Division Championship during his run, as well as top feuds with Sting, Abyss, Robert Roode and even old ECW rival Jerry Lynn.
Rob Van Dam left TNA in 2013.
