10 Wrestlers You Forgot Were On The Reality Show

While fans often talk about Tough Enough and all of the wrestlers that got their start on that reality show, WWE wasn't the only company to have a show like that. TNA had their own reality series to find the next top wrestler, and their focus was on bringing the next big British wrestler to the forefront.

TNA Wrestling: British Boot Camp saw some great talents compete against each other to earn a contract with the company. While the show was popular in Britain, around the world a lot of fans likely missed some fantastic names getting their first big moment in the spotlight.

10 Marty Scurll

The original season of TNA Wrestling: British Boot Camp only had four contestants, with this very much being a trial run. However, Marty Scurll was a part of that series, getting his first big break in the industry.

This spot was long before he became The Villain, which is the character that catapulted him to fame in New Japan and Ring Of Honor, and he didn't win the show, but it was a chance for people to see a young version of him.

9 Drake Maverick

Out of everybody who was a contestant in this show, Drake Maverick is the one who went on to have the most success within TNA itself. Maverick was actually the winner of the original season, and because he had such a great career with TNA, people tend to forget this is where he came from.

Working as Rockstar Spud in the company, he proved himself to be entertaining, especially alongside EC3. Since that point he has had a great run in WWE as well, going from 205 Live GM to 24/7 Champion and now as an NXT Superstar.

8 Mark Andrews

The 10 Lightest Wrestlers In WWE History

Speaking of TNA: British Boot Camp winners, Mark Andrews was the man who won the second season of the show, which elevated him on to the next level. Andrews is an amazing high-flying wrestler and he wowed people with his skills on the show.

He worked with the company for four years following his competition victory, thriving in the X-Division. However, since that point, he's gone on to new heights as one of the major stars of the NXT UK roster.

7 Nikki Cross

Nikki Cross is someone who everybody is now familiar. As a former member of SAnitY, a WWE Women's Tag Team Champion and a big part of the company, Cross has become a big name in wrestling.

However, she did get to appear on television with this reality show, working under the name of Nikki Storm. She did make it to the finals, but ultimately she wasn't one of the final three wrestlers.

6 Piper Niven

While Nikki Cross was able to make it all the way to the finals, the same cannot be said for Piper Niven. The talented women's wrestler was dropped from the competition early on, and because of that a lot of people forget she was in the show.

She worked the competition under her original name of Viper, and since that point she's gone on to become a huge part of the British wrestling scene, eventually landing in NXT UK.

5 Kay Lee Ray

Another top female wrestler who competed in this show was Kay Lee Ray, who was actually able to make it all the way to the final three within the show. However, it's not something that people often associate with her.

Kay Lee Ray is best known for dominating in ICW, and since being signed by WWE she hasn't looked back. She has one of the longest-running title reigns of all time with the NXT UK Women's Championship, having dominated and proven herself to be one of the elite performers in wrestling.

4 Rampage Brown

Rampage Brown has been a true journeyman in wrestling, having competed pretty much everywhere at some point. He's one of the best heavyweights of his generation, and he was a dominant part of this competition in season two.

Rampage ended up being part of the final three in this show, and he did work with TNA following that point. However, his recent signing with WWE's NXT UK brand has only taken him to a new level of popularity.

3 Dave Mastiff

Another top heavyweight that was part of the show was Dave Mastiff. He got to the final six in the second series, which isn't a surprise considering how talented he is in the ring, having both power and athleticism.

He's had a great career since this competition, having been involved in the World Of Sport revamp. However, he's also stepped up and been a big part of NXT UK as well, being one of the most dominant stars on the roster.

2 Danny Burch

When he competed on TNA: British Boot Camp, Danny Burch wrestled under the name of Martin Stone, which is how he was known on the independent scene. He was a hard-hitting star, and while he made it to the finals he didn't get into the top six.

However, he didn't let that deter him and he continued to develop in wrestling, eventually signing with WWE. Alongside Oney Lorcan, Burch was able to win the NXT Tag Team Championships, becoming one of the standout stars on the roster.

1 Noam Dar

The TNA: British Boot Camp spot came very early on in Noam Dar's career, however, the wrestler was able to perform well on the show. He made it to the final six, despite being one of the youngest competitors.

Because he was young when he signed for WWE as well, a lot of fans simply associate the Scottish wrestler with the company. He's worked on 205 Live, competed in the Cruiserweight Classic, and been a top star in NXT UK since that point.
