A little off topic- I just watched Smackdown... I think AJ Styles is going to get over huge eventually. I already think he wrestles way better than Daniel Bryan and these aren't even PPVs... Styles looks flashy, while still looking like he's in a fight and he does it all smoothly in the ring...

Didn't ROH release a Best of CM Punk DVD during the Summer of Punk? It's just a smart business move, really. Can't fault TNA for this one. It's weird, though. Last I heard TNA wasn't producing DVDs anymore. I do remember when the Hogan story broke they were about to release a Best Of DVD with him too lol But didn't you know.. it's fine if ROH does it. Lol Eh, WWE has sort of a working relationship with ROH, where WWE at least acknowledges their existence and will show footage from ROH. Plus, the original Summer of Punk occurred in ROH and ROH had released at least one other Punk DVD while he was in WWE.

Every tna shirt i ever purchased was an aj shirt and they're all terrible quality. They did have great designs though. His wwe stuff hasn't been terrible though. Yeah, I have a lot of TNA shirts and they go bad really quick. My one AJ shirt feels like the paper you leave in your pants during the wash, you know, all rough and feels like it'll fall apart? Still, the designs are cool. ShopTNA uses Gildan for their shirts, but I regret passing on this one when they had it

Bush league. I don't think I've ever seen a company so desperate to seem relevant. Just delaying their inevitable collapse.

Smart. TNA is a business whose end goal is to make money.

Wow TNA trying to cash in on his new found fame in WWE, that's just pathetic.

Say what you will, but I'll likely be picking it up. It's an excellent match collection of one of the best in the world today. TNA doesn't often get my money, but they will here.

I never thought I would say in 2016, I'm considering giving TNA some of my money.
All of a sudden, I feel so dirty.

The desperation here is pretty sad. A month ago they were bashing him like a jilted ex girlfriend for contract nonsense. Also, they couldn't have released this years ago? He's been gone from TNA for over 2 years, where was this DVD then?

They did the same thing with Sting as well. They're just trying to capitilise on the buzz surrounding him at the moment.

I honestly don't see what the big deal is with this. He spent the majority of his career there, so of course it's smart to release a DVD like this while he's moving on to bigger and better things and is a bigger name. They're running a business (trying not to laugh) and this is smart business.

Of course they're doing this. Why wouldn't they? This is currently the best exposure Styles has ever had, and whether people like TNA or not, AJ spent a massive chunk of his career with them. People want to watch him, they own hundreds of hours of footage. No brainer. I'm sure WWE were still releasing and profiting from Hogan footage when he was at TNA.

To anybody who's calling TNA "pathetic," "bush-league," or whatever, let me ask you guys this: Did you react the same way when PWG & ROH released a best of Kevin Steen DVD after he made his WWE/NXT debut? Did you guys react the same way when ROH released a best of CM Punk & Daniel Bryan DVD after they were catching fire in WWE?
Wrestling companies do this kind of stuff all the time. This isn't exclusive to TNA, nor is it "desperate" to cash-in on AJ Styles, when he is getting more exposure now than he's ever gotten in his entire career.
Yeah, TNA had the thing on their website (and by the way, TNA didn't "bash" AJ Styles there either), but so what? That shouldn't prevent TNA from trying to make money off of footage of AJ that they own. Hell, WWE profited off of wrestlers that they've been on bad terms with all the time. I didn't see people s*it on WWE for doing that.
But of course, since it's TNA, it's all of a sudden "bush-league."
TNA are smart for doing this, because at the end of the day, this is a business & TNA's goal is to make money.
