4th & Pain: Backstage At TNA Impact, Austin Aries Interview, Dating Woes And Redskins Talk

TNA Wrestling rolled out the red carpet for Adam Carriker and Hulk Hogan wants to talk to him about becoming a pro wrestler!

The 4th & Pain co-host recently traveled to Orlando where he got to go backstage at an Impact taping and meet a ton of wrestlers including TNA World Heavyweight Champion Austin Aries, the immortal Hulk Hogan, RVD, Samoa Joe, Frankie Kazarian, Christopher Daniels, Joseph Park (Abyss?), Bully Ray, Mr. Anderson, Kurt Angle, D-Lo Brown and a whole slew of others.

How did all of this happen? As it turns out, TNA official Brian Hebner is a big Washington Redskins fan and reached out to Carriker on Twitter. The whole deal was set up and viola, Adam’s magic kingdom suddenly become the TNA sound stage at Universal Studios!

Brian’s father, Earl Hebner, is perhaps the most well-known official in the history of pro wrestling. He too is a Redskins fan!

Meanwhile, Adam’s co-host and weight loss champion Chuck Carroll is SALTY he didn’t get to enjoy the same experience.

Perhaps when TNA comes to the DC area on Sept. 1 for a BaseBrawl event at a baseball stadium he will have his turn…
