Victory Road 2025 - The Results



Zachary Wentz beats Cedric Alexander and Trey Miguel in a Triple Threat Match on the Countdown.

Gia Miller interviews Steve Maclin. Maclin says Frankie Kazarian has talked a lot of crap about his title and his military service for weeks and has made tonight very personal for him, and that he will fight for his military brothers and their sacrifice who has had to deal with insults, carry the burden of disrespect, continue to fight the war after the war, and the ones who never made it home and found that peace. He says that tonight, there are no jokes, when he is done kicking Kazarian's ass, everyone will call Kazarian "King Nothing." All of a sudden, El Mesias suddenly shows up and has a staredown with Steve Maclin.

It's time for Fir$t Cla$$ Penthouse. AJ Francis brags about his new Houston Texas jacket and that he is a star, then says the only star in his galaxy is Trick Williams. He also says he has been on numerous sports podcasts and demands respect for it. After removing his Houston Texas jacket to reveal a Florida Panthers jacket underneath, AJ Francis then mentions that the Edmonton Oilers lost the last two Stanley Cups to the Panthers, then says he will show what a winner looks like before previewing his new album "Dear $ummer." All of a sudden, Matt Hardy - tonight's guest - shows up and says the fans would rather hear "that iconic Hardy music" than AJ Francis', and AJ Francis says that nobody wants to see "the oldest tag team title match in history" and that Fir$t Cla$$ (AJ Francis and Rich Swann) should be in that match because they are the greatest tag team of all time. Matt Hardy asks AJ Francis what kind of alternative universe he is living in before listing The Hardys' (Jeff and Matt Hardy) accolades before stating that Francis has created "boredom and headaches." AJ Francis says he could "create an ass whupping" for Matt Hardy if he does not get out of the ring, and Matt dares him to do it if he is man enough. AJ Francis goes for a cheap shot, and he eventually hits a big boot followed by a Down Payment into the table in the ring.

The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, JDC) head to the ring. Eddie mentions Moose's match with Mustafa Ali as well as JDC's return from being taken out by Special Agent Zero, then asks why they should wait for their match with the rest of Order 4 (John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero). Director of Authority Santino Marella shows and announces that Matt Hardy is being looked at by the trainers, and that if he is cleared about, he will face AJ Francis here tonight. As for The System, he makes a match with Order 4 the opening match for tonight's show.

Ash by Elegance heads to the ring. Director of Authority Santino Marella and TNA President Carlos Silva are also in the ring. Ash talks about how she entered TNA a year-and-a-half ago mentally defeated and how it quickly became her home. She says that she planned to elevate the Knockouts World Championship, but life has thrown her some curveballs and that she is no longer able to compete. Ash announces that she is stepping away from in-ring competition, and with a heavy heart, she has to forfeit the TNA Knockouts World Championship. She is confident in the women's locker room, and that whoever holds this title will elevate it like she planned to. She says it was an honor to perform for the TNA fans, who she says gave her the best moments of her life. She thanks the fans and states that she will miss them, then hands the TNA Knockouts World Championship to Carlos Silva. The fans give Ash a standing ovation on the way out. Santino then announces that the TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championship will be moved to this Thursday's TNA iMPACT in favor of a battle royal to decide the new champion, and that the battle royal is coming up next. (Ash by Elegance's original title defense against Masha Slamovich is cancelled due to allegations of domestic violence between Masha Slamovich and her former partner, independent wrestler Akira. These allegations would also cause Slamovich to be pulled from several independent shows, including Prestige Wrestling's Roseland XII, where she was replaced with Dani Luna.)



Kelani Jordan and Lei Ying Lee are the final two in the Knockouts Battle Royal and will face each other later tonight for the vacant TNA Knockouts World Championship.

Before the next match, Eric Young says his opponent could not be here tonight and that he is not coming, which automatically makes him the winner of this match. He says that Edmonton, Alberta, Canada does not know what winning is about because they have been losers for a decade, then says that this is not a "see a you later" or a goodbye because this is on purpose, that this was a cleansing and that this was inevitable. He then tells everyone to say goodbye to Joe Hendry. Joe Hendry suddenly shows up for the next match.
