At TNA's Hard Justice PPV event last night in Orlando, FL at Universal Studios, a fire broke out at the top of the Impact Zone causing close to a 30 minute delay as the company was live on pay per view.

The fire first became noticeable during the first match on the PPV between Eric Young and Johnny Devine as TNA officials began spraying fire extinguishers at the top of the Impact Zone. As a result, the Impact Zone began to fill with smoke caused by the extinguishers and the fire.

TNA stalled with Mike Tenay and Don West at ringside by airing a few promos and then were forced to go show live backstage when the entire Impact Zone had to be evacuated when the Orlando fire department showed up. We provided live coverage of all this going down earlier tonight in our Hard Justice report at this link. Due to the 30 minute delay, the scheduled Four Way Tag Team Match involving America's Most Wanted, The James Gang, The Naturals & Kazarian & Bentley was pulled from the show and will instead take place at the iMPACT! tapings tomorrow night in Orlando with the winning tag team earning a shot at the NWA World Tag Team Titles.
