Highlights from Last Nights edition of TNA Xplosion

For those that missed the awesome new look TNA Xplosion last night:

Desmond Wolfe Update

Desmond Wolfe: Trading clotheslines for punchlines?

Desmond Wolfe: Trading clotheslines for punchlines?

The Kent News featured a piece on TNA star Desmond Wolfe, noting that during his absence from the ring, he’s been hard at work developing and writing a potential sitcom.

In regard to his health, Wolfe noted that fans shouldn’t believe what they hear online, commenting, “I can’t get into the details of my absence here and now, but there have been a few different plans to bring me back in the last few months, none of which materialised. I’m hoping for something soon though.”

We can confirm Wolfe took part in the latest round of TV tapings, though not in a wrestling capacity. However if it fails to air it would not be the first time TNA have shot an angle featuring Desmond and then cut it from the final edit. Here’s hoping for a return soon, stay tuned.
