Final iMPACT! - iMPACT! recap for June 11, 2026

Mike Santana retains the TNA World Championship against Eric Young. During the match, Eric Young knocks out the referee, and Santana has to revive the referee after hitting Eric Young with Spin the Block. Eric Young hits a low blow, then grabs the TNA World Championship to use as a weapon despite TNA President Carlos Silva's pleas. He hits Santana with the title, then hits Santana with a piledriver. Santana somehow gets his hand on the bottom rope. Young then puts the World title in the center of the ring, then Ricky Sosa shows up for the first time since Eric Young took him out. This gives Santana enough of a breather to roll Eric Young to win and retain. After the match, Eric Young runs to the back to go after Ricky Sosa, and TNA President Carlos Silva is about to personally hand the TNA World Championship to Santana only for "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth to show up with the Call Your Shot Gauntlet Trophy. Instead of cashing in on Santana, he helps Santana up, then takes the microphone and says that while he could pick the bones and cash in, he is a man of his word, and he will call his shot at Slammiversary. Nemeth says he does not want tricks, traps, excuses or an asterisk next to his name, and issues the challenge for Slammiversary to Santana, who is handed the TNA World Championship by Carlos Silva. Both Santana and Nemeth have a staredown, then shake hands.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero). Mustafa Ali gives "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth a round of applause for calling his shot at Slammiversary against Mike Santana, calling it "idiotic, but honorable." He says that while he lost to KC Navarro, Navarro lost his uncle earlier this week. He talks about how Navarro called his uncle a fighter until the bitter end, then says Navarro will do the same thing and lose to him. He then distastefully gives condolences to Navarro's family for the loss of Navarro's uncle as well as Navarro himself.

Before the next match, The Personal Concierge George Iceman introduces Mr. Elegance as a future TNA champion, "the spawn seed of the gods," "a titan amongst men with a body composition of 1% body fat," and "the opposite of all of you pigs." When Elijah makes his entrance, Elijah mentions AJ Francis trying to take his likeness and silence his voice as well as his fans', then says that is not going to happen. All of a sudden, a lawyer shows up and tells Elijah that he has been served. Mr. Elegance shoves Elijah into the lawyer and beats Elijah in mere seconds with an inside cradle. Mr. Elegance beats Elijah. After the match, AJ Francis mocks Elijah for losing the match just like he lost the rights to his image and will lose the lawsuit he just got slapped with, then boasts about making a lot of money while the fans cannot do anything about it. Elijah clotheslines AJ Francis out of the ring, then beats him up and takes it into the crowd as he goes. Meanwhile, Mr. Elegance celebrates his victory in the ring until Lei Ying Lee shows up and beats him up. Xia Brookside then gets in the ring and attacks Lei Ying Lee, and Brookside goes for Darkside only for Lei Ying Lee to fight back and hit Warrior's Way. Lei Ying Lee then goes up tot he top rope only for Brookside to escape.

As per the Bioflex Injury Report: The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) are out of action following last week's Wicked Garden match. Trey Miguel's condition continues to improve, and he could return to the ring in six to eight weeks. Moose has officially been cleared for in-ring action following his backstage attack.

Backstage, KC Navarro is met by "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth, who tells Navarro to do what he does. Navarro says he appreciates everything Nic has done for him, and appreciates that Nic did for Mike Santana. "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth shows up and says Nic should have cashed in, but Nic says he let everyone know that they will see who the better man is at Slammiversary. Santana says it is no secret that he trusts no one in the locker, yet he respects what Nic Nemeth did for him. He then says that he will win at Slammiversary, and that Nemeth will be shaking his hand. Navarro then asks The Nemeths and Santana to have his back. Nic is happy to do that, but Santana is led to the trainer's room by security, and a jealous Ryan says "I'm the baby brother, okay?"

The System (Eddie Edwards and Cedric Alexander) beat Leon Slater and Fabian Aichner. After the match, Fabian Aichner has to save Leon Slater from The System, and Bear Bronson gets in the ring. Aichner has Bronson up on his shoulders only to be attacked by Brian Myers. Suddenly, Moose shows up, and when he gets in the ring, everyone runs off. Moose says he is back and that it is time to put an end to this, and at Slammiversary, it will be him versus Eddie Edwards.

We hear from Director of Authority Santino Marella. He says that while he and Indi Hartwell won, everyone can go on with their lives. He also hopes that Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo and Arianna Grace come back with a better attitude. Indi Hartwell shows up and says she wants a rematch with Elayna Black, saying that the disqualification does not sit well with her. Indi's rematch is granted.

The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) head to the ring. Vincent says he warned that in the Wicked Garden, the vines do not let go, then says history was made when The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hard) met "the lily of the valley." He says it is beautiful and delicate, but poisonous beneath, and that he put it in Jeff Hardy's mouth to prove that even legends decay. Vincent says that for thirty years, The Hardys have survived ladders, tables, cages and time itself. He then states that when The Hardys entered the Wicked Garden, they were classified as obsolete. Dutch says last week was historic, as the soil of the Wicked Garden was fed well, and watching Jeff Hardy convulse to the truth left tears in their eyes. Dutch says The Hardys became the past while The Righteous have become tomorrow. Vincent then states that since they have beaten The Hardys in the Wicked Garden, there is only one thing left to hardest: the TNA World Tag Team Championships. Suddenly, Director of Authority Santino Marella shows up, and admits while that The Righteous give him the creeps, they are right, and it earned them a potential tag team title match. He says The Hardys have a rematch clause, and the titles will be defended in a three-way ladder match at Slammiversary. Vincent says that The Hardys are gone and that they are in control, but the lights go out and "Broken" Matt Hardy's laughter can be heard. When the lights come back on, a giant orange ladder is in the center of the ring. The Righteous are spooked. "Broken" Matt Hardy's theme then plays.

Before the next match, The Personal Concierge George Iceman demands respect for The Elegance Brand (Ash by Elegance, Heather by Elegance, M by Elegance) from "the filthy degenerates" in the crowd.

Allie, Rosemary and Mara Sadé beat The Elegance Brand (Ash by Elegance, Heather by Elegance, M by Elegance) in a six-Knockout tag match that sees an Ash by Elegance voodoo doll introduced into the proceedings.

Mustafa Ali retains the TNA International Championship against KC Navarro by submission with the Sharpshooter. After the match, Mustafa puts Navarro back in the Sharpshooter, then Nic Nemeth rushes to the ring. Mike Santana soon backs him up after a comedic shoulder shrug, and they eventually clean house and overpower Special Agent Zero. Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero) soon surrounds the ring, but back off just as immediately. All of a sudden, Mustafa Ali gets in the ring with the International Championship as a weapon, and Nemeth clocks him with a superkick out of nowhere. Nemeth then hits Santana with the Danger Zone to end the show.

Here are the top ten moments from tonight's show!

Final iMPACT! - iMPACT! recap for May 7, 2026

Eric Young beats EC3 in a no-disqualification match with a piledriver through a table and another piledriver into a metal folding chair.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Arianna Grace and Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo. Arianna says she should not be having a rematch, as she has beaten Lei Ying Lee and has proven she is better than her. She then says that her father Director of Authority Santino Marella wants her to be humbled, and Stacks says Santino is playing mind games and is having to jump through hoop after hoop. Stacks says that Arianna has this, and Arianna takes this as Stacks having a plan. Arianna and Stacks flirt, which makes Gia Miller almost want to throw up.

Backstage, we hear from The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander). Brian Myers says they are carrying the workload, and the tag team titles are on the line. He says that "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth and KC Navarro should prepare to battle. Bear Bronson cannot wait to rip Nic and Navarro's faces off. Cedric Alexander says that he and Eddie Edwards will take care of Leon Slater and Moose, and he wants to pin Leon Slater one more time. Eddie says tonight is The System's night.

Elayna Black heads to the ring. Elayna says that she is the number one Knockout in the Knockouts Division and the only one that matters, then states that she is coming after whoever is Knockouts World Champion after tonight and taking the title. As Elayna boasts that she makes more money and gets more attention than the rest of the Knockouts and says that she is a business, The Personal Concierge George Iceman shows up and says Ash by Elegance has something to say about that. Ash shows up and says Elayna looks like "a gothic prostitute" as she and The Personal Concierge walk down the ramp, and says The Elegance Brand not only makes money, but swims in it. She also says that if Elayna is a business, then she is an empire, as she is a millionaire with a mansion and a yacht. All of a sudden, they are joined by Indi Hartwell. Indi says that this argument is "embarrassing" and that there is a Knockouts World Championship main event tonight while they are comparing paychecks while it means something. Ash and Elayna tell Indi she sounds poor. Ash and Elayna then argue over who will become the next Knockouts World Championship, but Indi says neither of them can focus enough on an argument. Elayna leaves, and Ash tells Indi to "let the real Knockouts talk about it" only for Indi to call her completely fake. Ash throws a punch at Indi, but Indi blocks it and knocks Ash out of the ring.

Backstage, Daria Rae is on the phone, stating that Director of Authority Santino Marella's flight is cancelled and that she will be making all the decisions tonight.

The System (Brian Myers and Bear Bronson) retain the TNA World Tag Team Championships against "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth and KC Navarro. After the match, Eddie says The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Myers, Bronson, Cedric Alexander) are one for one right now, and that they will keep it going by beating up Leon Slater and Moose right now. Leon Slater shows up, and this gets the next match started.

Leon Slater and Moose beat The System (Eddie Edwards and Cedric Alexander) with a jackknife pin from Moose to Eddie after Eddie avoids the Spear.

As per the Bioflex Injury Report: EC3 and Eric Young are currently in evaluation after tonight's no-disqualification opening match as both men have sustained multiple injuries, and more information will be provided when available. Frankie Kazarian and Elijah are out of action following last week's Walk With Elijah Match, and while Elijah has re-aggravated his triceps injury, he is not expected to miss any ring time. Lei Ying Lee and Arianna Grace are 100% medically cleared to compete in tonight's Knockouts World Championship main event.

We hear from The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy). Matt Hardy is now broken as he says that The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) do not understand the gravity of the situation and have opened Pandora's Box. He says they wanted The Broken Hardys, and now they are here. Matt says that mortal men have transparent barriers in their minds and have no idea how to break through, overcome and break them down, but he and Brother Nero have been broken, and now The Broken Hardys are a gateway to what they will become, which is something much more serious. Jeff Hardy says that Brother Nero is near and here to instill fear, then closes his eyes, opens them back up, and reveals that his irises now have a checkerboard pattern, revealing that Brother Nero has arrived.

Mike Santana heads to the ring. Santana talks about his battle to take the TNA World Championship back from NXT last summer and bring TNA back to his essence as well as how he and Rich Swann brought the house down in their World title match. Santana tells the fans that he gives his heart and his soul in the ring every single night, then says that he likes giving out his own opportunities and will continue to do just that, and will be naming his next opponent for the World Championship. Before he can name who is next, Daria Rae shows up and says that this is not happening and that Santana does not make his own matches or pick his own opponent. She also says she did not like the match with Rich Swann. She also mentions that Director of Authority Santino Marella's flight has been cancelled and that he cannot pick Santana's next opponent, so she will. She announces that there will be a battle royal next week, with the winner getting a World title shot. Santana says that Daria Rae is right about him not being able to make the decisions, as the fans do, then says Daria Rae has been stroking her ego since she showed up and that his foot will go up the challenger's ass before he hits Spin the Block. When Santana's entrance theme plays, Daria Rae stops it and demands her theme play instead, which it does.

We hear from AJ Francis, who says that TNA forced him to put "that pink haired freak" KC Navarro in Fir$t Cla$$, and says that when he got rid of Navarro, he made things worse by stealing wins from him. He then says he will steal something from Navarro - his health - and that they will be in a Sacktown Street Fight next week in Sacramento, California, where Francis will prove why he is the best big man in the business, which is money, money, money.

Backstage, we hear from KC Navarro. He says that AJ Francis wants to talk smack about him, money and championships he cannot win after putting him on the shelf for eight months. He says that Francis took advantage of him even after he tore his ACL, then says he busted his ass for eight months to prove he is more than a replacement and to prove that he belongs in TNA. He says that he and Nic Nemeth may not have won the tag team titles, but he will beat AJ Francis in next week's street fight.

Lei Ying Lee beats Arianna Grace to win the TNA Knockouts World Championship for the second time after Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo gets ejected for getting Arianna Grace's foot on the rope a second time. As per pre-match stipulation, Xia Brookside was banned from ringside for this match. After the match, Daria Rae personally awards the TNA Knockouts World Championship to Lei Ying Lee.

Final iMPACT! - iMPACT! recap for April 16, 2026

"The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth guests on commentary for the next match.

KC Navarro beats AJ Francis after countering the Down Payment with a victory roll after "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth distracts AJ Francis.

Backstage, we hear from EC3. EC3 says a story requires three acts, and talks about his time in Act 1, his "exile," trials and tribulations away from TNA in Act 2, and his crusade - not a comeback, which requires permission - to finish what he started in Act 3. He says that this is only beginning with Eric Young, and that he is back.

The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander) heads to the ring. Myers makes fun of the fact that the fans are booing them and brags about him and Bronson being the new tag team champions, then admits that not everything at Rebellion went as planned. Eddie says he should be World Champion, but he lost because of one person: Moose, who he says could not stand the thought of him being a three-time World Champion, The System holding all the power and Alisha being his ride or die. Alisha tells Moose that she is glad that hanging out with her made him a little bit smarter, saying it was a smart move for Moose because Moose likes stooges. She also says that she and The System played him like a fool because he is a fool. Cedric says Rebellion was supposed to be total dominance and a clean sweep, but instead of celebrating excellence, they are still dealing with a Moose problem. He also says that Slater cheated to beat him with the X-Division Championship, which is a disqualification, which means he never lost and is owed a title shot. Slater shows up and tells Cedric to shut up before he slaps the taste out of his mouth, then tells Cedric that he got beaten and he has the title to prove it. He also says that Cedric has "a boo-boo face" - which starts a crowd chant - because he is on the verge of becoming the longest-reigning X-Division Champion of all time. Eddie says Slater may have the title, but he will not break the record, because he is like Moose in that he just gets lucky time and time again and cannot get the job done. Moose shows up and says it is just like Eddie to make excuse, and says Eddie lost because he is "a little bitch," and that The System is full of bitches. He says that Bronson and Cedric are his bitches after he beat him in the past week, then says that Eddie is Alisha's bitch because Alisha has the balls in their relationship. He then calls Myers "Edge's bitch." Moose then says he has thirty Knockouts in the locker room to back him up when he says that Alisha is the biggest bitch to step into TNA. Alisha says Moose is nothing compared to Eddie, as he has a pea brain and needs to stay out of their business. Slater says that he and Moose are in their gear and The System is also in wrestling gear, and that they should have a match. Suddenly, Daria Rae shows up. Daria Rae says that this funny business would have slid with Santino Marella in charge, but he is at home suspended, and the match is not happening. Slater says stuff like this is why Santino is the superior general manager. Daria Rae then changes her mind, then puts Slater and Moose against The System in a four-on-two handicap match.

Backstage, Daria Rae is met by Elijah, who finds out that Santino Marella is suspended as he demands a rematch with Frankie Kazarian. Daria Rae makes a phone call to Kazarian regarding the rematch, who does not want it, and therefore Elijah does not get it. Elijah says "So this is how it's gonna be?" before walking out of the room.

Before the next match, Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero) is in the ring. Mustafa Ali says he is happy because he has a weapon of mass destruction behind him, attack dogs to his sides, and the TNA International Championship. He says the fans should be happy, too, as they have a champion who does not need a second chance. He says that Mike Santana and Trey Miguel had second chances while The Hardys had multiple chances. He then states that while he does not need a second chance, he does give chances, and announces an open challenge for the TNA International Champion to any challengers either in TNA or around the world. Mustafa Ali then addresses Jada Stone, telling her to get in the ring so that Tasha Steelz can kick her ass.

Jada Stone beats Tasha Steelz after the rest of Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Special Agent Zero) are ejected from ringside.

In the Undead Realm, Victoria Crawford is seen running and screaming from the realm's dangerous denizens. Meanwhile, Rosemary runs into Joseph Park, who has suddenly appeared in the Undead Realm as he looks for Abyss. Joseph Park says that his family's law firm has taken care of his divorce pro bono before having some choice words regarding Father James Mitchell and leaving to go "up North." Meanwhile, a woman wearing lots of black and jewelry with red eyes is seen. Tessa Blanchard asks someone for help getting out of The Undead Realm, but ended up having to fight two citizens of the Undead Realm sitting on church pews. She manages to survive and run away. We see the words "To Be Continued."

Backstage, "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth congratulates KC Navarro, then says KC Navarro owes him one. "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth shows up wanting to know what's going on, and as Nic explains, The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander) show up, and Myers calls Navarro "a charity case." Bear Bronson says he does not like Nic's tone as Nemeth stands up for Navarro, and Nemeth tells Bronson he is not a hard man to find. Myers holds Bronson back as The System leave and Ryan calls his mom.

Mike Santana heads to the ring. Santana says that Rebellion ended like he knew it would, and says that while Eddie Edwards threw everything he could at him, he broke that foundation in half and remained TNA World Champion. Santana says he has beaten every former TNA World Champion that has been thrown at him, and says that he should throw out some opportunities of his own, and he has one man in mind who has done as much as he has and is in the best shape of his life. He declares that man to be Rich Swann, who shows up and says that an opportunity for the World Championship does not fall into one's lap everyday, and says that he reciprocates Santana's respect tenfold after having seen what Santana has gone through to be world champ. Swann asks Santana if he is sure he wants to do this, as he is looking at agility, ability, charisma, athleticism and raw talent as he shows off his new and improved physique and proclaims that people will talk about their match for a long time to come.Swann then says he will give Santana every ounce of fire, heart and desire just like him, and he will fight him all night long. Santana asks the fans if they want that, and the people make it known they want this. Santana regrets that he will have to bring this to Daria Rae's attention, then says that if she needs a match next week, she knows what to do, and looks forward to his and Swann's World Championship match.

As per the Bioflex Injury Report: Trey Miguel sustained a severe laceration on his right knee at Rebellion and needed seven stitches, and is out for now. The Hardys (Jeff and Mat Hardy) are out of competition after last week's Tables Match and their match with The System (Brian Myers and Bear Bronson) at Rebellion. Indi Hartwell is cleared to compete, but she is suspended and ineligible for in-ring action until further notice from TNA management. EC3 is 100% cleared for in-ring action in time for his match tonight with Eric Young.

Before the next commercial break, it is announced that Eric Young vs. EC3, which is coming up next, is EC3's first match in TNA since 2020, correcting the factual error on commentary from Rebellion.

We hear from Lei Ying Lee, who talks about her road to America and how she came to learn about and understand professional wrestling. She says that when she came to TNA, Xia Brookside supported her on her journey to winning her first championship and became her tag team partner. She then says that everything changed last week and that she does not understand why, as she has not only lost her title, but she has lost her best friend. Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Xia Brookside, who has seen the vignette from Lei Ying Lee backstage. Brookside simply and silently walks away.

Eric Young vs. EC3 ends in a no-contest after the referee is caught between the ropes and Eric Young before being clotheslined over the top rope along with Eric Young by EC3. After the match, EC3 grabs a metal folding chair and swings at Eric Young only to miss and hit the post when Eric Young dodges. Eric Young clotheslines EC3 and wraps the chair around EC3's neck, and referees and security have to stop Eric Young from twisting EC3's neck as well as the ensuing brawl. Eric Young manages to get a hold of EC3 and send him head- and chair-first into the ring steps, hurting EC3 before being combative with security and referees on his way out.

In the Undead Realm, Rosemary comes across an axe murderer in a corridor with wooden walls. Rosemary knows the axe murderer, whose name is Frank, and has some small talk with him. Meanwhile, Mara Sadé and Allie come across the woman in black with the horns, who walks towards them, disappears, and then reappears past them before heading into the room behind them. They then meet Victoria Crawford, who runs backwards into the woman with the horns, screams and runs. Tessa Blanchard finds Rosemary and demands a way out of the Undead Realm. Rosemary refuses, and they brawl. Tessa wraps a chain around Rosemary's neck and ties her to the chair, but finds her efforts fruitless. After another vision of the woman with the horns, Tessa catches up with Crawford and Mila Moore while Mara Sade and Allie check on Rosemary, who mentions the tussle with Tessa. Allie decides to go after Tessa herself. Rosemary then reveals that they have some of Tessa's hair from their brief battle. Tessa, Crawford and Mila Moore find the exit out of the Undead Realm thanks to Father James Mitchell, and run into it and away from the woman with the horns, whom Father James introduces himself to. Back at the arena, we see some interesting imagery, and Tessa, Crawford and Mila Moore crawl out from underneath the ring as the lights are out and red lights glow. We then see more of the interesting imagery, which has image of Rosemary, before the lights turn red again. Mara Sadé and Rosemary show up and brawl with Tessa, Crawford and Mila Moore, who soon overpower and surround the two of them. As Rosemary dares them to fight her all at once, the lights go out, then the imagery appears once again. The lights come back on after we see even more images, and Allie makes her return to TNA, alive and well. She superkicks Crawford and Mila Moore before hitting Tessa with a lungblower and standing tall with Rosemary and Mara Sadé.

We hear from The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) backstage. Matt Hardy asks The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) if they are happy, as they have broken them down enough physically for them to lose the tag team titles. He says that they are picking up what The Righteous is putting down, and that it takes a near-death experience to truly feel alive before challenging The Righteous to a match next week so they can make them the sacrifice, as it is nearly "Broken Season." Jeff Hardy snaps his fingers, and the screen cuts to black as Willow - who has not been seen or heard from in TNA in a while - laughs maniacally.

The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander) beat Leon Slater and Moose in a four-on-two handicap match.

Moose beats Bear Bronson. During the match, the rest of The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Cedric Alexander) shows up, but the Atlanta Falcons legends in the front row jump the guardrail and shove Cedric down onto the ramp despite security and officials getting between both sides.

We see the word "Wrath." Rosemary meets with someone that they owe: a person in a sheep mask, who happens to be Crazzy Steve. Steve knows that Rosemary needs something, and says that he did not choose to be a flawed design. He says they both know that this life is a joke and that death is the punchline, and that everything went so well until it did not, and he was cast aside to rot. Crazzy Steve says that he knows Rosemary is looking for a sacrifice, but he wants something from Rosemary in return so he can get out of this place. He says that his sacrifice comes with a cost, but Rosemary knows that cost and has come to offer it. Both of them join foreheads briefly, and a red glow is seen.

Frankie Kazarian shows up and interrupts, saying Buff Bagwell is not walking anywhere and that he will be hobbling. He says that he used to be a Buff Bagwell fan and that Buff had it all, and says Buff is pathetic compared to twenty years ago. Kazarian says he would like to take Buff apart right now, but Buff is half the man he used to be and he is twice the man Buff ever was. Suddenly, Elijah shows up, and Kazarian runs off. Elijah says that tonight is Buff's night, and while he will take care of Kazarian, no one will stop Buff from carrying out his dream.

In memory of George Tahinos, 1962 - 2025.

Mike Santana heads to the ring to start tonight's show. He brings a metal folding chair into the ring in addition to a microphone. Santana sits down and talks about how one month ago, he was on top of the world after winning the TNA World Championship and sharing a moment that would live with him for the rest of his life with his daughter. He also talks about how he has been over 1,000 days clean and sober since last week, then mentions that the TNA World Championship was snatched from him a day later. He says that life will humble one quickly when they think things are going good, and he admits that things went dark and that he was scared of himself. Santana says he wanted to react with rage and anger, but he could not. Santana says he went to a safe place and went to a meeting, and that the meeting helped him realize a lot of things, especially that the fans deserve for him to be in TNA after the fans have paid their hard-earned money for an experience. He says the TNA fans rode with him when other people did not, and he thanks them for that. Santana says he had it all in his hands, but it was taken from him, and it only made him want it that much more. Santana warns Frankie Kazarian that he has something that belongs to him and warns him not to get too comfortable, because the TNA World Championship is coming back to him. He then has a message for the wrestler from NXT who attacked at Turning Point, stating that he knows they are watching and that he will pick them all off one by one until there is nothing left. Santana says he will make them regret stepping foot in TNA, and that they will all know that he gave them fair warning.

Backstage, Santino Marella tells someone on the phone that he will handle the investigation tonight. Frankie Kazarian shows up, saying that he had nothing to do with the NXT invasion and demands an apology. JDC shows up and mocks Kazarian for looking like "a Bon Jovi reject," but Kazarian asks JDC when he was last relevant and mentions his wife. JDC tells Kazarian not to mention his wife again, and challenges Kazarian to a World title match. Kazarian asks JDC what he has done to deserve a title shot, then Santino tells JDC that if he can beat Eric Young tonight, he will get his title match. Kazarian is furious.

Backstage, Eric Young has two masked men in black pass out pamphlets outside of the building before he is interviewed by Gia Miller. Eric Young takes offense to JDC earning a shot at the World Championship for winning in their match while he would earn nothing if he won, then says he will beat JDC and show that the cleanse is coming.

Backstage, Director of Authority Santino Marella wondered how the invaders from NXT got into the building at Turning Point, then decides to let them in. The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) and Steve Maclin show up, and Santino says he needs something to lure them in. Jeff Hardy says they have bait in the form of the TNA World Tag Team Championships.

Mance Warner beats Matt Cardona after hitting Cardona with Steph de Lander's purse as Steph distracts both Cardona and the referee.

As per the Bioflex Injury Report: Mike Santana has suffered a torn UCL and a hyperextended elbow at Turning Point, but he is being monitored. Elijah is out with a re-injured torn triceps.

Robert Stone says that he is not the mastermind, yet all the other outsiders know where the brains are at. Lexis King says they will shatter TNA into a million pieces.

Backstage, we hear from Matt Cardona, who says that while Steph de Lancer knows a lot about him, she does not know everything. He also says that Mance Warner is not much of a brother, and while both men want to get to the top, Mance will have to go through him. He challenges Mance Warner to a street fight, saying that he is not only always ready, but he is "The Death Match King."

John Skyler beats Myron Reed after Jason Hotch, who shows up to distract Reed, pulls Reed backwards out of a pinfall attempt from a Sunset Flip on the outside, reversing the pinfall attempt and giving Skyler the win. During the match, it is revealed that Special Agent Zero has taken out the rest of The Rascalz (Trey Miguel, Zachary Wentz, Desmond Xavier).

We hear from AJ Francis and Rich Swann. Francis says Swann let him down at Turning Point by losing the match and shaking Leon Slater's hand. Swann says that he has respect for Slater and that Slater is the future, but Francis says he only knows about sportsmanship and that he, not Slater, is not the future. Slater shows up and says that he and Swann tore it up at Turning Point, and while he respects Swann, he is not sure about Francis. This leads to Francis threatening to beat respect into Slater, and Slater is down for a match with him.

The Elegance Brand (The Personal Concierge George Iceman, Ash by Elegance, Heather by Elegance, M by Elegance) continue their search for Mr. Elegance, and The Personal Concierge is the only one who can see the contestants. Ash by Elegance ends up kissing the first contestant, and the second contestant is disqualified for wearing a salmon-colored suit.

Kelani says she understands where Indi is coming from, then says she is not here to bash TNA and that she is here for women's wrestling. She says she saw an opportunity as well as their history during her career before stating she is not the same person she was when her career began. Kelani says she is putting their friendship aside, as she has known holding, winning and losing championships as well as having a target on her back, and she plans to walk out as champion.
