Backstage News On Christy Hemme Joining Creative, TNA Taping PPV Today, Eric Young Speaks

- Above is video of new World Heavyweight Champion Eric Young speaking to fans after Thursday's Impact Wrestling went off the air.

- As noted, Christy Hemme is now a member of the TNA creative team. The decision was made by "Big" John Gaburick. The impression given was that her role will be more on costuming than wrestling angle booking. She's supposed to work with everyone to improve the look of their ring outfits and costumes, and will also have creative input.

- TNA will tape two pay-per-view events today from Orlando. The first taping begins at 1pm and will have the World Cup theme to it. The second taping begins at 7pm and will be the X Division Xtravaganza show. Stay tuned later for full spoilers.
