JB replaced Tenay on Commentary for Xplosion. And So Cal was the ring announcer. One thing you don’t notice when you watch Xplosion on Youtube is the lighting is really different with two bright lights like headlights coming out of the entrance way with the Impact Zone darker.
Xplosion to air 2/22 on Challenge TV(UK).
Gunner & Murphy vs Eric Young & Orlando Jordan. Ref Andrew Thomas. Eric in his and OJ’s entrance came to the stage still wearing the old TNA title and he was wearing black sunglasses and carrying a steel barrier. Eric had “Security” written by a marker on his back. Eric set up the barrier blocking the rampway. Eric was really funny running back & forth on the apron. Eric was joking around trying to shake fans hands while holding onto the tag rope. Eric when he got into the match gave Murphy some punch’s then starting Younging up and took off his pants revealing white briefs that had “Finally” written on the front and the Canadian flag on the back. As Eric threw Gunner out of the ring, Murphy held onto Thomas’s foot and pulled him down. Gunner came running in with a baton but missed and Eric threw him out of the ring, Murphy rolled up Eric for the win using the tights.
Referee Jackson James shook hands and hugged some fans.
Magnus vs Crimson. Ref Jackson James. Taz took a picture on I think JB’s cell of JB during Magnus’s entrance. Crimson won the match.
After I got my picture taken with Big Brother’s Jessie who was nice. The VIP’s were grouped together in the TV side bleachers and then they took us to where they tape the Interviews. At that time Beer Money was signing autographs and taking pictures at ringside with the fans and Kazarian was in the ring doing the same but for $20. The interview area had red heart balloons set up and some other decorations. Mickie was really nice and said she liked my Kyle Busch NASCAR jacket. She took pictures and signed everyone a TNA paper and any other items they wanted her too.
That ended the night at 9:15pm. Another great night of nonstop action.
Today was much more comfortable sitting on the seats ringside. I think Thursday’s Impact is a must watch as it was really exciting. Two great nights so far! Can’t wait for the final night of this awesome VIP weekend. Really wish Orlando was a lot closer to NY to be able to go to this every time. A memorable time so far.
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
