Some of you may have noted that in The Beast's recent promos, he talked about how he was going to beat the hell out of Stone Zellor on "monday night." Which is obviously not Tuesday... NAPW has never been live. Essentially? We tape on monday night, air TNF the next day and now Action! on wednesday (before on Friday). Anyways. It's not really that important. I would prefer you say Tuesday to stay in kayfabe.

Wikipedia definition (lol wikipedia)
"In professional wrestling, kayfabe (pronounced KEI-feib; IPA: ['ke?fe?b]) refers to the portrayal of events within the industry as real, that is the portrayal of professional wrestling as not staged or worked. Referring to events as kayfabe means that they are worked events, and/or part of a wrestling storyline. In relative terms, a wrestler breaking kayfabe during a show would be likened to an actor breaking character on camera.
Kayfabe is often seen as the suspension of disbelief that is used to create the non-wrestling aspects of promotions, such as feuds, storylines, and gimmicks, in a similar manner with other forms of entertainment such as soap opera or movie. In the past, kayfabe was strongly adhered to in order to preserve the illusion that pro wrestling was not staged. With the advent of the Internet Wrestling Community and the sports entertainment movement in pro wrestling, the maintenance of pro wrestling's backstage secrets are more difficult to keep than they were in earlier decades. Today, kayfabe is sometimes broken to advance storylines, to explain prolonged absences due to legitimate injury, as a tribute to a wrestler, or even for comedic effect."
