Matt Jackson had to jump through a few hoops for his exploding superkick spot at Double Or Nothing.
According to the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Matt Jackson planned out his viral exploding superkick spot at least a month before the match happened. Furthermore, Jackson was required to get a Nevada State Fire Performers License in order to execute the spot.
Fans who missed out on the spot can see a video linked below.

The spot has been praised by many fans as one of the most innovative things that has been done in wrestling in recent months.
Despite the fact that Jackson was able to pull off the cool spot, The Elite would end up falling in defeat to the Blackpool Combat Club in the Anarchy In The Arena match at Double Or Nothing. The finish of the match saw Konosuke Takeshita attack Kenny Omega, which allowed Wheeler Yuta to pin him for the three count.
