Latin American Exchange




The Latin American Exchange (frequently abbreviated to '''LAX''') is a Hispanic Professional Wrestling Stable in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling .

The Latin American Exchange was formed by Konnan after he left the 4Live Kru due to acrimony between himself and Kip James . He debuted the stable on the December 31 , 2005 episode of '' TNA IMPACT! '', with the initial membership comprising himself, the returning Apolo and the debuting Homicide . The first act of the LAX was to ambush and assault "Bullet" Bob Armstrong , the father of B.G. James (the Tag Team partner of Kip James). The LAX then feuded with B.G. and Kip, collectively known as the James Gang , throughout January 2005 . At '' TNA Against All Odds 2006 '' on February 12 , 2006 , Apolo were scheduled to wrestle the James Gang. However, Apolo had been released from TNA earlier that month for No-show ing an event. His departure was explained on-screen by Konnan, who simply stated that the LAX was expanding, then introduced Apolo's replacement, the debuting Machete . Homicide and Machete went on to lose to the James Gang.

On the March 18 , 2006 episode of ''iMPACT!'', Homicide and Machete lost to Shark Boy and Norman Smiley after Konnan inadvertently hit Machete with his slapjack. After the match, Konnan tore off Machete's Puerto Rican T-shirt and threw him out of the stable. On the March 31 , 2006 episode of '' TNA Xplosion '', Konnan justified his firing of Machete, pointing to Machete's loss to Shark Boy. Later that evening, Konnan debuted the newest member of the LAX, the returning Hernandez . Hernandez and Homicide teamed together in a loss to Chris Sabin and Jay Lethal .
