* {{Crossover}}: Unfortunately, then TNA World Heavyweight Champion Bobby Roode was unable to make it to the World Wrestling League's 2014 ''Navidad Corporativa'' event. Fortunately for the fans, perhaps not for La Artilleria Pesada, TNA World Tag Team Champions James Storm and Abyss could. Thunder And Lighting gave as good as they got though, battling The Revolution to a no contest.

His "Revolution" gimmick is called out as one of [[Wrestling/TheWyattFamily Bray Wyatt]], but he himself claims it's more inspired by Wrestling/KevinSullivan. Seeing as how he's a vengeful crusading grandmaster and not an evil spirit possession, the man has a point.

* BreakupBreakout: The more successful member of his previous team with Chris Harris (AKA Braden Walker), America's Most Wanted. Subverted with Beer Money, while Storm has become more popular (as in being the face), Bobby Roode has been more successful when it comes to winning titles.
* BuxomIsBetter: One of the reasons he enjoys Wrestling/{{Jacqueline}} company is because she's stacked. Seeing her drunk off her ass and pouring beer down Traci Brook's shirt made his day. He also makes it clear that unlike Jacqueline, Traci's "gifts" were about the only reason he had any time for her.

Added DiffLines:

* BreakingSpeech: Has had fun giving Sanada these in order to break the young Japanese wrestler down, telling him that Wrestling/TheGreatMuta (Sanada's mentor) was a fraud whose ways were turning Sanada into a loser (Sanada had dropped his X-Division title back to Wrestling/AustinAries and failed to get it back). He was able to successfully get to Sanada, who would turn against Muta and become a part of his "Revolution".


Added DiffLines:

* DisproportionateRetribution: Great Muta apparently disrespected Storm somehow when they were both in WCW, so Storm's decided to welcome Muta to TNA by verbally degrading him to his student Sanada, inflating the pressure Sanada felt he was under to succeed under Muta's directive, and turning Sanada against Muta.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Jerkass}}: As a heel.

* ThePowerOfHate: James Storm is clearly at his best when he's fighting someone or something he hates, so once his character started getting stale, TNA decided to run with it and turn him into a heel chock full of bitter piss and vinegar to go around.
