I haven't watched TNA in a while, Can someone please tell WHY Eric Young is dressed as a cowboy in panties?

Well I was watching the video of mickie james singing hard core country like 2 weeks ago, because shes hot as hell..and all of a sudden , Eric Young in a cowboy hat and thong?! WTF, where did this come from, maybe this is why I don't watch TNA..but I guess you can say the same stuff for really dumb WWE segments, but please, why is eric young in this position?
