A 2 match card featuring superstars that don't make it to Raw and the Second part is the superstars that don't make it to Xplosion. These shows will start showing next week in the old Impact timeslot. Now onto the draft. Each General Manager, Myself and my opponent will each pick five superstars. The TNA champion and the tag team champions will be both stripped of their titles but after Wrestlemania 24 they will be the number 1 contenders. The X division Champion “ Black Machismo†Jay Lethal will automatically be drafted to Raw and and the Knock out champion Gail Kim will be headed to Xplosion.Tag teams will be drafted together and Wrestlers managers with that Wrestler. Also at the end of the show the leftover superstars will be separated to each show and these results will be posted on NWA.com.
