TNA Xplosion
TNA Xplosion is a professional wrestling television program that is produced by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). Launched in 2002, the show features highlights from TNA's flagship television program Impact!, exclusive taped matches, and other content. It was mainly produced for international markets, though in later years, episodes would be distributed in the United States on Impact Plus (now TNA+).
Xplosion was cancelled in 2021, and its final episode aired on March 6. It was replaced by Before the Impact (BTI), which premiered two weeks earlier. Archived episodes continued to broadcast in Africa and India.
Following the company's rebranding to the TNA name on January 13, 2024, Xplosion relaunched as a web series on January 26, replacing BTI.
TNA Xplosion was launched on November 27, 2002, as the promotion's first regular weekly syndicated show.[citation needed] In its original format, the show featured exclusive matches from the TNA Asylum, as well as exclusive interviews with members of the TNA roster.[citation needed]
On November 18, 2004, Xplosion was revamped as a recap of the previous week's Impact! episode in light of alterations in the taping schedule.[citation needed] The show would resume airing exclusive matches (billed as "Xplosion Xclusives") once more on October 7, 2005, in addition to recapping Impact!.[citation needed] These matches also aired on the TNA Global Impact! web show. "Xplosion Xclusives" matches normally featured wrestlers who rarely appeared during regular Impact! episodes. Occasionally, wrestlers may have made their debut or return on Xplosion and angles also took place.[citation needed]
Airings of Xplosion in the United States ceased at the end of 2006, although some of the exclusive matches could be seen on TNA Today. Starting on December 22, 2008, "Xplosion Xclusive" matches were also streamed on the promotion's website and YouTube channel.[citation needed]
Xplosion was revamped at the June 14, 2010 tapings of its 300th episode, now featuring more original matches with Jeremy Borash and Mike Tenay on commentary. In addition to the format changes, Xplosion received a new logo, graphics package and theme music performed by Taproot. The show would also feature a segment called "Spin Cycle", where Borash had a Q&A session with various TNA stars in front of a live crowd.[citation needed]
In 2013, Xplosion began including matches from the promotion's early years and matches prior to the upcoming PPV event. Beginning in December of that year, Rockstar Spud replaced long term color commentator Mike Tenay.[citation needed]
