TNA Xplosion 8/7/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/08/tna-xplosion-7312026.html

There was no Around the Ring this week. The only new content is this:

Brian Johnson talks before his match. He says the legacy of this company was built on the backs of some of the greatest performers of this time. He mocks Kuro and says he has a future that an make an impact. He says he will slap Kuro so hard that he will think this ring has 6 sides to it. He says if you start a list on the future of this company, it starts and ends with him. He says he is "The Mecca" Brian Johnson.

Kuro vs Brian Johnson

Kuro wears a full mask out that doesn't show his face or head at all.

BJ knees him in the gut and Kuro running boots him from the side. Kuro drops him chest first on the mat then double stomps his back. BJ ducks a lariat and goes out. BJ kind of rips him with the ring skirt when he's on the apron. BJ punches him on the mat and sends him hard into the corner.

BJ hits short arm lariats. BJ running lariats him for 2. Kruo backslides him then rolls him up for 2. Kuro then lifts him from that position and sitout bombs him. Kuro pump kicks him and la silla's him in the corner. Kuro falcon arrows him for 2.

BJ pulls Kuro's throat into the ropes. BJ sits up top and is dropkicked. Kuro top rope spanish flies him but BJ gets his feet up on the ropes. BJ pulls Kuro's throat down over the top rope and slingshot splashes him. Kuro nearly hits the ref, gets eye poked and takes a twisting neckbreaker on the face. BJ pins him.

Thoughts: I didn't like it. This is a dark match and they are doing spanish fly kickouts. That shouldn't happen. Kuro didn't really impress and just kind of looked like a typical junior heavyweight. Brian tried to heel it up a little at least.

Overall thoughts: There was only one new match here. I didn't think it was that good. There was no other new content here. You don't need to see this one, but you can get through the new content here is only 6 minutes.
