TNA Xplosion is a syndicated television program produced by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), featuring both highlights from TNA Impact! and exclusive taped matches. It is now produced only for international markets, no longer airing in the United States.
Contents |
Xplosion was launched on November 27, 2002 as TNA's only regular cable show and featured exclusive matches from the TNA Asylum as well as exclusive interviews with TNA superstars.
On November 18, 2004, the show became a recap show of the previous week's Impact! in light of alterations in the taping schedule. However, Xplosion resumed airing exclusive matches (billed as "Xplosion Xclusives") once more on October 7, 2005 in addition to recapping Impact!. The "Xplosion Xclusives" also aired on the now-ceased TNA Global Impact! internet show.
All of the matches seen on Xplosion are taped ahead of time along with Impact!. Matches normally feature wrestlers who rarely appear on Impact!. Occasionally, wrestlers may make their debut or return on Xplosion and angles have also taken place.
As of May 2006, the hosts of the show are ring announcer/backstage reporter Jeremy Borash and Christy Hemme. Airing of Xplosion in the United States ceased at the end of 2006 although some of the exclusive matches can be seen on TNA Today.
