TNA Xplosion 12/20/2024

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2024/12/tna-xplosion-12132024.html

Around The Ring with Gia Miller

Trent Seven is this week's guest. He left around the time this aired. Trent talks about Speedball Mike Bailey and says good riddance to him being gone from TNA. He says you gotta bet on yourself sometimes. He says he beat The Hardy's on their own. Gia says she appreciates Trent punching Ace Austin in the balls as it's a receipt from her.

Trent says it's been a year since he signed his contract with TNA. They talk about some game they play called "mafia". Trent talks about playing a perfect game on the bus. He says he was the mafia in that game and tricked everyone else into thinking he was the doctor. He said one of the people he tricked didn't talk to him for a year over it. He says he got Alan Angels to throw the game over it. He talks about wrestling and says you live a special life on the road. Gia says she enjoyed playing mafia with him.

Frankie Kazarian vs Sami Callihan

Sami rushes at him and Kaz goes out. Kaz yells at the fans and says to tell the marks he's the one king of TNA.

Kaz chokes Sami in the corner with his knee. Kaz talks to the crowd and takes a lariat for it. Sami suplexes Kaz. Kaz gets wrapped up in the ropes and Sami clubs on his chest. Sami chops Kaz in the throat.

Kaz eye pokes Sami then lariats him. Kaz hits mounted shots and says "thumbs up your @ss". They trade shots. Kaz knees him in the gut then Sami hits lariats. Sami death valley drivers him for 2. Kaz pulls the ref into Sami then rolls him up whole holding Sami's pants. Kaz picks up the win.

Thoughts: This was pretty much all shortcuts and stalling. These two had a super lazy match here and took every shortcut in the book to get through it.

Overall thoughts: We only had one new match and one new interview segment here, with someone who would end up leaving the company by the time it aired. The new match was one of the laziest matches of 2024 and they did absolutely nothing in it. I would not recommend this one.
