Spots like this are being used less frequently. Take a look at how often WCW liked to utilise these methods to wrap up some of their main events in the late-nineties for example.
To me it would have looked better if he was just tossed through it, the explosion (very obviously) came from the outer housing of the light and just looked hokey. I mean he gets tossed into a "7000 watt" light, and wwe would have us belive he was in the middle of the explosion as well. Why not have a helicoptor gunship descend from the rafters and riddle him with kryptonite fused armor piercing rounds while we're at it.

I think wwe are getting simpsons syndrome with everything exploding, im waiting on the ring exploding after a powerbomb eventually.
