10 TNA Impact Wrestlers Who Surprisingly Never Won A PPV Match

Impact Wrestling has been producing scintillating wrestling content ever since its inception in 2002. Over the years, many talented wrestlers have stepped inside an Impact Wrestling ring and were part of great matches and storylines. Several high-profile wrestlers like AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, and Robert Roode made a name for themselves by competing in Impact Wrestling shows and PPVs.

Speaking of PPVs, from the company's weekly PPV era to their regular monthly events, Impact Wrestling has produced about 130 PPV events so far. Many wrestlers from the Impact Wrestling roster and visiting wrestlers from other promotions have competed in the various PPVs over the years. With that said, let's take a look at ten surprising names who have never won a match in an Impact Wrestling PPV.
