Tna has all it's champions crowned and is looking to move forward in a big way.
The celebrity involvement is strong here. Hermie Sadler makes his in ring debut against K-Krush and we get a surprise appearance from Jasmine St Claire. Because it is a true world title the NWA World title is being defended against Japan's Omori. Brian Christopher exlains his actions from the previous week. The headline attraction is a contenders match for the X Division title. Who will be AJ Styles' next challenger?
The guys go through this and the rest of the comings and goings on this week's TNA with their usual punditry.

Escaping the Asylum Prelude 2: If a title is not seen on TV for 5 years does it still matter?
On the 26th March 2001 the wrestling world stood in awe. Vince had done it! He had bought his competition.
With the death of the major territories over the previous 15 years there was no where to go for any wrestlers who were out of favour with the WWF. Several companies tried to fill the gap.
In this episode we look at the formation of one that is still going today.
TNA Wrestling.
This is the prelude to a series where two comedians rate and review all the weekly PPVs released by NWA:TNA. This prelude we look at what became of the belt that TNA chose as their main title, The NWA World Title. After being last seen on WWF TV in 1998 what became of the title? Why was it vacant at the time of the show?
This and more is looked into as we start the journey of Escaping the Asylum.

Escaping the Asylum Prelude: This revolution will not be televised (for free)
On the 26th March 2001 the wrestling world stood in awe. Vince had done it! He had bought his competition.
With the death of the major territories over the previous 15 years there was no where to go for any wrestlers who were out of favour with the WWF. Several companies tried to fill the gap.
In this episode we look at the formation of one that is still going today.
TNA Wrestling.
This is the prelude to a series where two comedians rate and review all the weekly PPVs released by NWA:TNA. This prelude sees some of the ups and downs that nearly saw TNA from not becoming a thing. From talents renaging on deals, to problems getting on PPV to the search for a score of financing. Also the first appearance of someone who will become a bit more prominant in future episodes, Dixie Carter. It's all here.
