Sept. 16, 2005 Total Non-Stop Wrestling (TNA) has been in existence for over 3 years and are just a couple of weeks away from their debut on Spike TV which is another big splash in their ever growing maturation from a run of the mill minor league promotion to being a legitimate threat to the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). It was not too long ago that TNA was a little company created in the offices of Nashville Tennessee under the supervision of Jerry and Jeff Jarrett, the father and son team who both are renowned names in the sports entertainment business. It is amazing to see how TNA wrestling has just grown up in front of my eyes. The key ingredient to TNA’s slow but hopefully rising success into mainstream America has been the talent that is currently under the TNA roster. There are several wrestlers who fight, claw and give 100% of their life inside that 6-sided ring that has not gone unnoticed by the hardcore wrestling fans. But there is one performer who has captured the imagination of the pure wrestling fan, the casual wrestling fan and even the hardcore WWE fan. He is known as the Phenomenal A.J. Styles and he could be the one guy that can pose a serious threat to the almighty WWE. A.J. Styles is the heart and soul of TNA. Styles is a competitor who can go inside the ring and tell a great action adventure story with physicality. Style’s is an absolutely breathtaking professional wrestler; he is an astonishing athlete who literally brings the action in TNA. He is a non-stop performer; he out performs his fellow locker room companions. Heck, Styles out performs the WWE locker-room! Styles started his TNA career as a competitor in TNA’s X-division, a division dedicated to cruiserweight wrestlers, high flyers, athletes who are not the tallest or biggest but use their speed and heart to tell their wrestling story inside the squared circle. A.J. is the X-Division. He will always be the X-Division. He is everything that the X-Division is about. He goes in there and wrestles; he is a daredevil. The resume of great matches that Styles has put up includes his battles against Jerry Lynn, Loki, Sean Waltman, Amazing Red and “Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels. Styles is not only a guy that can compete with the cruiserweights, he is not afraid to fight some of the big boys in TNA. In absolute classic match, A.J. Styles went up against Abyss, a rather large fellow in the TNA heavyweight division in a steel cage match for TNA’s Lockdown pay per view. It was an absolute classic match that mixed in a little bit of the old school steel cage match formula and added some jaw dropping innovative maneuvers from Styles. It was just an awesome, match of the year, main event that you would expect from Styles. A.J. Style has the charisma and talent to take TNA Wrestling to the top. I hope the WWE is watching. ------------ About the author: Larry Tenelanda is a sports talk show host for WHCR 90.3FM in New York. You can listen to whcr at www.whcr.org.
