The X Division has also seen the introduction of a new type of match for the X Division championship; the Ultimate X match is a high-flying variation on something like a Ladder match, except with the X Division championship being suspended on two intersecting wires above the ring, forming an X.
Another aspect which separates TNA from the WWE is the amount of shoot angles that TNA runs. By catering to a more niche and complex audience, TNA has allowed itself to blur the line between the sports entertainment world and the scripted formulaic one. Shoot angles use actual MMA or Wrestling and the results are, usually, not scripted.
TNA openly recognizes the booking team and the hierarchy in both the TNA and WWE through subverting the audience's knowledge of Kayfabe (the scripted events that occur during professional wrestling, the suspension of disbelief that is used and required for all scripted drama.)
With the TNA focusing more on actual wrestling rather than out of ring angles, the TNA wrestlers generally have a better wrestling ability. With this, TNA is well recognized as having a good variety of established wrestling veterans paired up with female wrestlers, tag teams and exciting cruiserweights.
TNA has mixed former WWE and WCW wrestlers with their own talent and their current roster includes Kurt Angle, Booker T, Christian, The Dudley Boys, Scott Steiner, AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Abyss, Matt Morgan and Sting.
TNA DVDs have made TNA even more accessible outside of the United States, bringing the TNA brand of wrestling to countries that dont air TNA Impact (Such as New Zealand), and opening up more avenues for TNA to expand into.
