[edit] NWA-TNA 1: June 19, 2002

In NWA-TNA 1, a Gauntlet For the Gold was held to determine the new NWA World Heavyweight Champion. Previous NWA Champ Dan Severn was tied up in mixed martial arts commitments and was unable to compete, so he vacated the title before the fight.

Prior to the Gauntlet for the Gold, country music singer Toby Keith came out and performed a song, Angry American (Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue). Before he could finish, he was interrupted by #1 entrant to the match, Jeff Jarrett. He and Buff Bagwell were the first two entrants. Later on, Toby Keith would actually enter the match as a contestant and help Scott Hall eliminate Jeff Jarrett. He then eliminated himself, having gotten the revenge he sought.

For NWA-TNA 2, four men were chosen for a double-elimination match for the new NWA-TNA X Division Championship, TNA's equivalent of a cruiserweight championship.
