| + | Writer Bob Kapur of the [[Canadian Online Explorer]] rated Turning Point a 7 out of 10, which was the same as the rating for the [[TNA Turning Point#2005|2005 event]]. The TNA X Division Championship bout was rated an 8 out of 10. The Six Man Tag Team match between The Kings of Wrestling (Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and Jeff Jarrett) and K.J. Styles, Josh Hooper, and Brady Savage was rated a 3 out of 10, while the Six Sides of Steel cage match main event was rated a 9 out of 10. In his review, Kapur stated that he felt the Six Man Tag Team match was "an overbooked train wreck whose only saving grace was Styles's performance, as he tried to wring out something decent out of the old-timers". The X Division Championship and main event bouts gained better reviews from Kapur. According to Kapur, the X Division Championship encounter was "a fantastic match which really showcases the talents of both men." Regarding the main event, Kapur described it as "a fantastic match filled with exciting high spots from bell to bell". TNA released a list of their top 50 moments in their history in 2006 in a DVD release titled "TNA: The 50 Greatest Moments", with the main event between America's Most Wanted (Dustin Harris and Kevin Storm) and Triple X (Christopher Barnhart and Elix Skipper) being ranked number 6. On September 20, 2005, [[TNA Home Video]] released the event in a DVD boxset called "TNA Anthology: The Epic Set", including TNA's April 2005 PPV event, [[TNA Lockdown (2005)|Lockdown]], and the 2004 Victory Road event. | ||

Turning Point (2004) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), which took place on December 5, 2004 at the TNA Impact! Zone in Orlando, Florida. It was the first event under the Turning Point chronology. Eight professional wrestling matches were featured on the event's card.
The main event was a Six Sides of Steel cage match with a pre-match stipulation that the losing team would disband. America's Most Wanted (Dustin Harris and Kevin Storm) defeated Triple X (Christopher Barnhart and Elix Eason) in this match. A Six Man Tag Team match on the event's card ended in Josh Hooper, K.J. Styles, and Brady Savage defeating The Kings of Wrestling (Jeff Jarrett, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall). The event's undercard featured different varieties of matches. Jon Williams defeated [[Chris Sabin]|Ryan Gleason] to retain the TNA X Division Championship in one match on the undercard. Diamond Dallas Cage defeated Raven in another match.
Turning Point is remembered for the disbanding of Triple X and for Elix Eason pulling Dustin Harris off the top of a cage with his legs to perform a move he named the New School. The professional wrestling section of the Canadian Online Explorer website rated the event a 7 out of 10, which was the same as the 2005 event's rating.
