Final iMPACT! - iMPACT! recap for November 5, 2026

Moose heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Moose says that he had a conversation with Matt Hardy earlier today, stating that he should get back to being the guy he needs to be. Moose says that the fans have watched him help TNA grow for the last decade, and says that anyone who puts him down better make sure that he does not get back, as payback will be a bitch. He then says that Syx (Joseph Sawyer and Samuel Shaw) are the unluckiest guys in the locker room and that they are next, as he was the first person they laid out backstage. He mentions Syx calling TNA a disease and a cancer, then calls them out so he can whup their asses. Syx soon shows up and fight Moose two-on-one, and Matt Hardy shows up with a pipe as Syx have Moose overpowered. Syx retreats.



Backstage, we hear from Leon Slater and Amazing Red. Amazing Red says it is an honor to be in the TNA Hall of Fame, and tonight, he will bring the X Division action with Leon Slater. Slater thanks Amazing Red for laying the blueprint for the X-Division and says it is an honor to team with him, then addresses The Nemeths ("The Wanted Man" Nic and "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth) before Trey Miguel shows up. Slater looks forward to seeing Trey at Destination X, and Trey says he will be on commentary for their match.

Backstage, Indi Hartwell confronts Daria Rae. Brian Johnson has to stop Daria Rae from getting physical with Indi Hartwell again when Indi says that she wishes she was facing Daria Rae after Daria makes it clear that she wants the Knockouts world title off of her.

Mustafa Ali guests on commentary for the next match.

Frankie Kazarian and Avery Styles beat Alexander Lev and Hunter James. After the match, Mustafa Ali tells Frankie Kazarian not to raise Avery's hand, as Avery will stab him in the back and Kazarian is not an idiot. Kazarian punches Mustafa as he tries to get in the ring.



Backstage, Alisha Edwards needs Cedric Alexander and Brian Myers to do something regarding Eddie Edwards and Bear Bronson. Cedric and Myers think it better for Eddie and Bronson to handle their business, but Alisha is afraid they will tear each other apart.

Eddie Edwards beats Bear Bronson to maintain control of The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander). After the match, Myers and Cedric check on both Eddie and Bronson, then Eddie and Bronson shake hands before The System celebrate in the ring.

Avery Styles has suffered an ankle injury tonight and is currently in evaluation. BDE is out of action after suffering neck and back injuries in last week's match with Zer0. Numerous security guards were also injured in that match.

Backstage, Brian Johnson is writing up an incident report when Daria Rae shows up saying there is nothing to report. Director of Authority Santino Marella shows up and wishes Brian Johnson luck, but it comes off to both Daria and Brian as patronizing.

Allie and Shotzi Blackheart beat Fire 'n Flava (Kiera Hogan and Tasha Steelz). After the match, Fire 'n Flava attack Allie and Shotzi and lay them out.

Backstage, M by Elegance apologizes to Heather by Elegance for the last couple of weeks, saying that Mr. Elegance walking out opened her eyes to her treatment towards the two of them. She says that she has gotten Heather on the cover of the magazine with her, then leaves. Elayna Black shows up and asks Heather if she realizes M, and Heather takes this as Elayna driving a wedge between her and M and challenges her to a match so that Elayna can leave her alone. Elayna says she will continue to get a shot at the Knockouts TV title, and that Heather will finally see that M is using her.

Harley Hudson and The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) head to the ring. Vincent says that Harley has finally made it and is now standing with The Righteous. He says that it is funny how things turn out, then asks Harley if she is ready to become righteous, leave her old life behind, and bloom into something greater. Harley says yes to all three question, then Dutch makes Harley righteous by placing a wreath on Harley's head. Dutch stops just before doing that, and Vincent mentions that Harley made them wait, and that somebody else made up their mind. Instead of Harley joining The Righteous, Harley is attacked from behind by Xia Brookside. Vincent says the mouse has been sacrificed into the coils of the snake before welcoming Xia Brookside, who then receives the wreath from Dutch, into The Righteous.



We see a preview of "Elayna Black: Immersed," now on YouTube.

Backstage, Matt Hardy says Syx (Joseph Sawyer and Samuel Shaw) have a crossed a line they cannot return from after trying to kill Jeff Hardy. He says that The Hardys are hard to kill, but he will not forgive or forget, and Syx will receive a twist of fate.

Final iMPACT! - iMPACT! recap for October 1, 2026

In memory of "PAC" Benjamin Satterley, 1986 - 2026.

Before the next match, The Personal Concierge George Iceman says that he heard that it was a great fight for The Alamo in San Antonio, Texas, but says that Texas lost in the end because they are all losers before introducing Mr. Elegance as a winner.

BDE beats Mr. Elegance in a Bound For Glory X-Division Championship qualifier after countering being caught out of the air for an Excuse Moi with a Sunset Flip to win his first singles match. Benjamin "PAC" Satterley's passing is acknowledged on commentary early in the match. After the match, a furious Mr. Elegance shoves The Personal Concierge George Iceman in the ring.



Backstage, John Skyler meets with Jason Hotch. Skyler says it is like old times, and Hotch says it is different as he wanted Skyler to leave with him and Skyler did not. Skyler says that for the last two years, he watched Skyler and Mustafa go home to families while his only family was Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero), but now, he has Mila Moore. He says he needed the job because he had no family, then says that Mila will be in his corner and hopes that Hotch will be, too.

Backstage, The Home Town Man is with Deuce the Dude Wipes mascot, who hands him some Mint Chill wipes. AJ Francis and Expressions shows up, and Expressions says Deuce is only here because of AJ, who agrees before forcefully telling Deuce to do his job and do it right. He leaves at first, then takes the wipes from The Home Town Man.

Xia Brookside guests on commentary for the next match.

Indi Hartwell beats Zoey Serrano by disqualification after Zoey boots a member of security in the face, takes the metal folding chair he was sitting on, and hitting Indi in the gut with it in full view of the referee. After the match, Zoey hits Indi in the back with the chair before three members of security beg her to stop, which she soon does. Afterwards, Xia Brookside gets in the ring and hits Indi in the face with the TNA Knockouts World Championship.



Order 4 (Mustafa Ali and Special Agent Zero) beat The Great Hands (John Skyler and Jason Hotch) by submission with a Sharpshooter from Mustafa Ali to John Skyler. After the match, Mustafa yells at Special Agent Zero and tells him to attack Jason Hotch, but it is not until Tasha Steelz gives the order that he does it. When Mustafa tells Zero to attack Skyler, once again, Zero does not carry out the attack until Steelz tells him to do so. This makes Mustafa angry at bout Zero and Steelz, and Steelz sics Zero on Mustafa, who ends up eating a big clothesline from Zero. When Mila Moore checks on Skyler, Steelz sics Zero on her, too, and Zero hits Mila with a choke bomb.



As per the TNA Injury Report: Indi Hartwell suffered severe injuries after the attack by Zoey Serrano tonight and is currently in evaluation, with her Bound For Glory status in question. The Hardys are dealing with the effect of the beating from Syx from last week, but are more angry than injured, and are medically cleared and able to compete at any time.

Backstage, Tasha Steelz and Special Agent Zero confront John Skyler and Mila Moore, then Mustafa Ali confronts Zero only for Jason Hotch to confront Mustafa. Hotch and Skyler brawl with Zero and Mustafa until security breaks everything up. Director of Authority Santino Marella turns the brawl into a four-way match for the TNA International Championship at Bound For Glory.

Before the next match, Expressions declares that when AJ Francis beats Moose tonight, he and Francis will celebrate like the New York Knicks in the NBA Finals.

Moose beats AJ Francis. During the match, AJ Francis is about to put Moose through a table covered in Dude Wipes when Deuce the Dude Wipes mascot gets in the ring and saves Moose. Moose pump kicks Expressions off the ring apron and sends him through the table, and AJ Francis grabs Deuce after Moose ducks a clothesline. Moose then grabs a toilet seat and smashes it over Francis' head before hitting Francis with a Spear for the win.



Backstage, Courtney Rush waves at Kiera Hogan and Allie backstage. They then find Rosemary behind a fence in a straitjacket. Allie tells Rosemary that she did what Rosemary told her to do, and a crazed Rosemary tells Allie to beware of snakes in the grass before running off.

"The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth guests on commentary for the next match. Before the next match, Joe Alonzo welcomes everyone to "Total Nonstop Alonzo," then says that unlike San Antonio, Texas, he does not embrace his losses, for he suffered a loss a couple of weeks ago to KC Navarro, which he blames on Leon Slater. Alonzo says he and his people are tired of Slater coming out every week talking about beating records and beating Nic Nemeth, yet he showed up to be cheerleader for KC Navarro. Alonzo apologizes to Nemeth, then says he will give Nemeth the night off from Bound For Glory when he beats Slater. He then says Slater is a one-trick pony who people will hate within a year and should not be in the title picture, saying the fans love an up-and-coming wrestler only to say they are overrated a year later, and says that if Slater wants to take spots and opportunities from him, that is fine, because he will take away something from Slater and make sure Slater does not make it to Bound For Glory. When the bell rings, Slater kicks Alonzo in the face, then hits the top rope Swanton 450 for the win. Leon Slater beats Joe Alonzo. After the match, Nic Nemeth tries to attack Slater only for Slater to see it coming, then steals Slater's robe. Slater then takes both of Nemeth's titles and celebrates with them.

We see footage of Frankie Kazarian and Avery Styles training for the Call Your Shot Gauntlet Match at Bound For Glory.

Backstage, Elayna Black walks in on The Elegance Brand (The Personal Concierge George Iceman, Heather by Elegance, M by Elegance, Mr. Elegance). Elayna says that she will be the next Knockouts Television Champion, but M by Elegance says that will not be happening. Elayna proceeds to mock and try to drive a wedge between "the brand," and manages to coerce M by Elegance to defend her title against her with nobody at ringside, much to The Personal Concierge's chagrin.

Ricky Sosa beats Cedric Alexander. During the match, Bear Bronson and Brian Myers show up, but Sosa is able to fend them off. Alisha Edwards, who shows up right after Bronson and Myers, distracts the referee, allowing Eddie Edwards to show up and kick Sosa in the groin so that Cedric can hit the Lumbar Check for the win.



Syx (Joseph Sawyer and Samuel Shaw) head to the ring. Instead of going down the entrance ramp, however, they come out through the crowd. Joseph Sawyer says "We're here," which gets them cheered. Samuel Shaw then says that everyone has been wanting to know who has been carrying out attacks backstage, then says that they have the answer before stating everyone should be asking why. He says that he and Sawyer have been watching TNA for weeks as the fans have had fun and says that it is "a rotten place," then says Syx is here because sometimes a place get so rotten that it has to be cut apart. Sawyer says they are the ones who did the cutting one by one, and states that no one is safe and no help is coming. He warns that if anyone is standing around wearing a TNA shirt, happens to be backstage or even coming through the doors, they are on the chopping block. Shaw says that every chopping block has a name at the top, and at the top of theirs is The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy). He says The Hardys have built their legacies surviving things no mere man could survive and proving to everyone that they cannot be killed. He says that Syx tried and they survived, and now, they get to to do it again. Sawyer tells The Hardys to listen closely, because last week, The Hardys wanted and got them, and now, they are in their heads and on their minds. He states that The Hardys are on alert looking for Syx and have spent their lives looking extreme, but now, they will see how hard it is to kill The Hardys. Sawyer says that if sick is what they are, then sick is what they will be. The Hardys show up, and Matt is carrying a pipe in his left hand as he addresses the last months' worth of backstage attacks and Syx hiding in the shadows, and Jeff says that while Syx keeps trying to take them down, they are still standing. Matt says they gave Syx what they wanted last week and while they tried to put The Hardys down, they failed, and that they have survived what they have survived because they are unkillable and cannot die. He says that if Syx want to learn how hard it is to kill The Hardys, then they can make it happen at Bound For Glory in a no-disqualification, anything goes, falls count anywhere match. Jeff says he loves the idea, then says they do not have to wait and that they can give it to the fans tonight. As The Hardys approach the ring, however, the lights go out, and when they come back on, Syx has disappeared.

We hear from Frankie Kazarian. He says he did not want tonight's match, but Moose called his bluff and he did not expect Moose to accept the stipulation. He says that Moose has had a stellar career in TNA and has put it on his back and taken it to the next level. Kazarian says he wants to surround himself with people like Moose and says that he will miss Moose, then says Moose kept pushing it even after taking the loss in Chicago and is now paying for it. Kazarian says he must focus on the future of TNA, then thanks Moose for what he has done for TNA.

Ricky Sosa and Elijah beat The System (Eddie Edwards and Cedric Alexander) after Elijah takes out Brian Myers and Bear Bronson from the top rope. After the match, Eddie Edwards hits Ricky Sosa from behind with a chair before hitting him with a package piledriver. Eddie then tells Sosa that he has been wrestling longer than Sosa has been on this earth and in his time, many guys like Sosa came and went. He says that since words no longer work with him, it is time for action. Eddie then challenges Sosa to a match at Bound For Glory to see if he truly belongs in TNA.



We hear from The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch). Vincent says BDE is losing his mind after his actions from last week, and Dutch says they put him through pain to make him into something greater, but BDE chose comfort - and Rich Swann - over growth. Vincent then says that if BDE wants to do things his own way, then they will let him grow the garden that he thinks will keep him safe.

As per the TNA Injury Report: Xia Brookside has multiple contusions after her match with Gabby Forza, and that she will be out for some time to recover. Leon Slater is still recovering from last week's backstage assault, but he has been medically cleared for tonight's match. Moose and Frankie Kazarian have been cleared for tonight's main event, although Moose continues to have neck issues.

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

We hear from Moose, who says that he has thought about his TNA accomplishments and how people have stated that he may have a mistake putting his career on the line, then says a man is at his best when his back is against the wall. He says that compared to Lockdown, Kazarian will get his very best and find out why he is called "the face of the franchise."

Zoey Serrano beats Harley Hudson. Before the match, TNA's head of security has to step between Serrano and anyone that Serrano decides to mess with on the way to the ring. (The Z360 is now known as "Hell and Back.") After the match, Daria Rae shows up and congratulates Zoey Serrano, then says that Harley Hudson has not learned her lesson. Daria directs Serrano to finish her, but Indi Hartwell runs into the ring to make the save. Serrano retreats as Indi calls Daria Rae out for trying to get rid of her and Harley, and Daria tells Indi that she is on borrowed time.



Moose beats Frankie Kazarian in a match with Moose's career on the line. (Had Moose lost this match, his career in TNA would have ended.) After the match, Moose throws a chair in the ring, then grabs Kazarian's crown and takes it to the ring. Moose then takes the chair and smashes the crown with it, much to Kazarian's disappointment.



The show ends with the revelation that Matt Hardy has been laid out backstage. Two people in black pants who are only seen from leg height stand over Matt before walking past him.



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

Ryan says it is a good day to be a Nemeth brother after beating The Hardys and becoming tag team champions again while Nic retained the TNA World Championship. He says that their family is the greatest in the history of professional wrestling. Nic says that this makes him the most valuable man in TNA and that he is above the law and can buy his way out of anything. Ryan says that Nic has had a team of experts put up a list of double champions in TNA, which is just Kurt Angle. Ryan says it is disrespectful to have Kurt Angle's name up in the same arena that Nic Nemeth is at, then Nic addresses Leon Slater exercising Option C to face him for the World title at Bound For Glory. Nic tells the kids to follow their dreams, reach for the stars and always bet on themselves unless they are facing him, then Leon Slater shows up. Slater says that over the last couple of years, he has had a habit of saying things and getting them done, then says he will be TNA's youngest World Champion and that he will get that done. Slater notes that Nic is a double champion, then notes that he has found himself a tag team partner in the last couple of months and that the two of them have never lost a tag team match. Ricky Sosa shows up, and Ryan Nemeth says that Daria Rae will never allow for a tag team title match just because Ricky has won a couple of matches. Director of Authority Santino Marella suddenly shows up. Santino says that he will make that match, saying it is the perfect main event and that he is making it right now and making it happen tonight.



Backstage, Mila Moore is on the phone near the rest of Order 4 (John Skyler, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero). Mila then says that Mustafa Ali is at the hospital after what happened at Lockdown, and that John Skyler will have to tag with Special Agent Zero tonight. She also says that without Mustafa around, that makes Skyler the leader of Order 4 tonight.

Before the match, Brian Myers says they might have a few new scars, but The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson) has proved once again that you cannot beat them in Lethal Lockdown.

Elijah beats Bear Bronson after grabbing Bronson off the top rope for the Highwayman's Farewell. After the match, Elias is able to fend off Brian Myers, but Eddie Edwards and Cedric Alexander rush into the ring and attack Elijah from behind.



As per the TNA Injury Report: the medical team was busy at Lockdown. Every participant in Lethal Lockdown has suffered injuries, especially KC Navarro, who is not medically cleared to compete at this time. Everyone else in the match is medically cleared, albeit not at 100%. Jason Hotch suffered bruised ribs at Lockdown, and despite soreness, he is cleared to compete. Cedric Alexander is not medically cleared after his match with Leon Slater. Mustafa Ali suffered a punctured lung following his victory against Jason Hotch and is out, and his situation is being monitored closely.

We hear from Elayna Black. She says she had time to reflect on Lockdown and wrestling in front of her friends, family and trainer. Elayna says she is proud to have put on a performance in front of them, even if she did not come out of it with the Knockouts World Championship. She admits that this might have been her karma after her past negative attitude and that she needed to be humbled and needed to remember who and what mattered, as she is not only doing this for herself, but for friends, family and fans. Elayna says she came to TNA with a mission, and while she did not the title, she is 25 years old in her first year in TNA and that this is just the beginning of a long "Era of Elayna."

Trey Miguel and Jason Hotch beat Order 4 (John Skyler and Special Agent Zero). After the match, Mustafa Ali congratulates Jason Hotch from his hospital bed, saying that Hotch promised to put him in the dirt and came close to doing that only to put him in the hospital. He mentions that Hotch fractured his ribs and punctured his lungs, and says the only thing more painful is disrespecting one's wife and child and leaving to tell about it. Mustafa says that Hotch is also hurting, then says they have gone too far and that everyone has gotten hurt, and proposes that they call a truce, stop all of this and have Hotch rejoin Order 4, saying it is either "open arms or a call to arms." Mustafa then tells Hotch that the choice is his.



Backstage, The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) meet with Rich Swann and BDE, wanting to know if BDE wants to join them and get his first big win. Rich Swann and BDE want nothing to do with them, and Dutch says he will meet with Daria Rae and get the two of them a one-on-one match. Vincent then says that when things do not go BDE's way again, BDE will think about what he said.

Indi Hartwell heads to the ring. Indi says she is usually a positive person, but she is pissed off at Daria Rae telling her she is not worthy of a title shot. She says she has watched wrestling since she was eight years old and has been obsessed with it, and this is still her only dream. She says she has dropped out of university and moved across the world for this and that she has never been more ready, and that she is in her prime, and that she will let nothing or nobody get in her way anymore. Daria Rae shows up and says that Indi almost got her until she remembered how mediocre Indi is, then tells Indi that in the real world, money is opportunity, and that since Indi has not brought in money, she gets no opportunity. Daria tells Indi to go back to catering and disrespecting her name. Indi dares Daria to get in the ring with her. Daria says she would not waste anything on Indi's "dying" career, and if she got back in the ring, she would kick her ass back to "Kangaroo Land." Indi says that just because Daria's in-ring career was a failure does not mean she can ruin anyone else's career, and that with or without Daria, she will become a champion. Daria says "Good luck with that," then Indi is suddenly attacked from behind by the former Zoey Stark, now known as Zoey Serrano. Zoey then hits the Z360 on Indi.

Rich Swann and BDE leave, then Francis pockets some of the money for himself while the crowd of people from earlier laugh at him behind his back.

KC Navarro is in the ring. Navarro says that Philadelphia, Pennsylvania will always hold a special place in his heart, then mentions his match with Nic Nemeth for the TNA World Championship and admits he came up short, stating nobody was harder on himself than himself. He felt for a moment that he did not belong in TNA even after everything he had ever been through, but he thought about his journey to this point as well as his past attempts to get into TNA. Navarro says he fought so he could be an inspiration to kids, including his baby brothers in the front row watching him after his high school told him he would not be anything, and says that he finally belongs. He says that despite having friends who turned his back on him, his story is just beginning. Suddenly, The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander) show up. Alisha Edwards says nobody cares about "crybaby KC," and Brian Myers makes fun of Navarro for tearing his ACL. He then says that he set up a daycare section with crayons and a coloring book and tells Navarro to go to the back. Cedric then cuts a promo on Leon Slater, saying he will never get a shot at the X Division Championship, and Eddie says Slater and Ricky Sosa are worthy of a match against The System.

Wendy Choo shows up and confronts Brookside, calling her a coward for her action, and Brookside says she is a champion. Director of Authority Santino Marella shows up and gives Wendy a chance to prove that Brookside is all talk with a Knockouts title match next week.

Matt says that it is time to spit some facts, and declares that The Hardys are the greatest tag team of pro wrestling and that they are the reason that TNA is on AMC and "runs on Hardy dust." He then says that it is appropriate that they won the tag team titles back in a ladder match, as there would be no ladder match without The Hardys. All of a sudden, The Nemeths ("The Wanted Man" Nic and "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth) show up. Nic says he is better than both of The Hardys and he has Ryan with him, and Ryan says they are the best brother tag team of all time. Ryan also brags about the time he beat Jeff Hardy.

This allows Mustafa to hit Hotch with a low blow before ripping the belt off Hotch's trunks and whipping him with it. John Skyler gets on the apron and takes the belt from Mustafa disarming him, and Mustafa shoves Skyler off the ring apron. Skyler then gets back on the apron only to be inadvertently hit by Hotch. Mustafa then uses the ropes for leverage to pin Hotch after the referee comes to, but the pinfall attempt is stopped by Tasha Steelz, who is immediately confronted by Mila Moore. This starts a brawl between Tasha and Mila that John Skyler and Special Agent Zero have to take to the back. After a series of pinfall attempts, Mustafa hits Hotch with a top rope 450 only for Hotch to counter afterwards with a crucifix pin attempt. Mustafa then charges at Hotch in the corner only for Hotch to dodge. Hotch goes to the top rope, but Mustafa trips him down.

This leads to Kazarian asking Moose "Are you stupid?" and saying that he has to be to say he is the face of the franchise while in the presence of a king, but Moose wants to know who crowned Kazarian "King of TNA." Kazarian says it is the people, but Moose says he is "the face of the franchise" because he has seen people come and go and has seen people make a name for themselves in TNA and leave to chase money and stardom. Moose then says that he is not going anywhere, and for that, he is "the face of the place." Kazarian says that he is the last TNA original standing, a pioneer of the X-Division, and a Grand Slam Champion who has helped build TNA from the ground up. Moose says that Kazarian may be the most annoying person in the locker room, he respects him and considers him a pillar of TNA. Moose then mentions that he and Kazarian have never had a singles match. Moose proposes that they give the fans a first-time-ever dream match, but Kazarian says he has no interest in that and says that he has talked to somebody and that they both agree that Moose is an idiot with an ugly NFL career. That person ends up being AJ Francis, who shows up with Expressions and mentions his own NFL career before saying Moose left the NFL before he could arrive because he is scared of him.

He says that Navarro is "pretty good," but he just "does not have it."

Vincent says that The Righteous walked The Broken Hardys through the Wicked Garden and showed every version of The Hardys, then says that there is more. He is also grateful that they are telling the truth. Dutch says the scars last forever and that The Hardys still stand because of them, but "Broken" Matt warns The Righteous that they have awakened something more insidious than they have ever realized. Bear Bronson and Brian Myers show up, and Myers calls everything The Righteous and The Hardys are calling "mumbo jumbo" and says the tag titles are the only thing that matters.

He says that he has been fighting for a moment like this, then says that Nemeth has done it all as well before stating that the difference between them is that when TNA needed a true champion to put it on his back through the dark times, he was there. He mentions Nemeth stating that he was here from TNA only to go on world tours while he ended up being the guy Nemeth was supposed to be, and that he will continue to be the guy.

He says that Moose and JDC kept The System from the next level of greatness and that they tore the cancer out so they could rebuild The System better than before, and at Slammiversary, he will end this once and for all. JDC says he has known Eddie for 25 years - longer than anyone else in the business - and that while he does not take what Eddie did personally, professional wrestling has made Eddie sick in the head and blinded by disease. He says that Eddie will lose everyone in his life, including his wife and daughter, and Alisha interrupts JDC for bringing her daughter up, telling him to bring his wife so she can slap her before saying The System is better without Moose and JDC. She says Moose walks around like a big shot, but deep down inside, he wants revenge on her because she played him like the fool he is and always will be. Alisha then dares Moose to Spear her and get that revenge, but Moose and JDC leave the ring. Alisha says he knew Moose would do that because he is nothing but a pathetic coward, and Moose slides back in the ring and nearly goes for the Spear until JDC stops him.

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.

Mustafa Saed is announced as a surprise competitor in the next match. (He ends up being the first person eliminated.)

Eric Young last eliminates Elijah with a kick to the groin on the ring apron to win a TNA World Championship #1 Contender's Battle Royal.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Leon Slater. Slater says he has never been more prepared, as he has another chance to make history as the longest-reigning X-Division Champion of all time, and he has a chance to draw a line between who he was, who he is now, and who he will be. He says he has been winning the big one for the last 300 days, and he will go from youngest to greatest. The Broken Hardys ("Broken" Matt Hardy and Brother Nero) show up and tell Slater that he has a chance to solidify himself as a legend much like they have.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero). Mustafa Ali says that order 4 continues to fail him, but he will fix things like he always does. He says he has a magic lamp in the International Championship, and he has already wished for the best that TNA has to offer. He says that the open challenge continues, and that he will go back to his winning ways. Order 4 leaves with Gia Miller telling Jason Hotch he did a good job in the battle royal, then Eric Young shows up says that Mike Santana will be the next to go as part of the cleanse.

Lei Ying Lee heads to the ring. She says that last week was the greatest night of her entire life and that she has fought for this moment to become a two-time Knockouts World Champion. She is proud to be able to bring the title back to TNA, and apologizes for her English not being the best, as while she wants to speak from her heart, the words in Chinese are not the same. She thanks the fans, stating she could not have done it without them. Xia Brookside shows up and tells Lei Ying Lee she can celebrate all she wants, but she has her mind on the Knockouts World Championship and sooner or later, it will come to her. Lei Ying Lee says she is sick of Xia and addresses her in Mandarin Chinese, but Xia tells her to speak like "her dumbass fans." Lei Ying Lee says she will beat her right here and now, and Xia teases getting in the ring before stating she will not wrestle in "a cesspool like Sacramento, California." Xia says she has already destroyed Lei Ying Lee and she will take the Knockouts World Championship from her, but today is not that day.



Backstage, we hear from The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander). Eddie says they were robbed in the battle royal and that he will get another title shot with Moose out of the picture. Brian Myers says he does not want to hear Moose's name again, as he is weak. Bear Bronson says that The System cannot be broken, and Cedric says that Moose is a non-factor and that Leon Slater will find out he cannot beat The System.

Gia Miller interviews Keith Jardine, actor for the upcoming movie Over Your Dead Body. Jardine talks about the movie, then The Elegance Brand (The Personal Concierge George Iceman, Heather by Elegance, M by Elegance, Mr. Elegance) shows up, with The Personal Concierge calling Mr. Elegance an example of real masculinity. The Elegance Brand soon think Jardine is jealous of Mr. Elegance, but Jardine says he makes him want to puke and calls The Elegance Brand "a gang of hos" before security has to get between Jardine and Mr. Elegance.



Chris Caray, Athletics play-by-play announcer and great-grandson of the late play-by-play announcer Harry Caray, guests on commentary for the next match.

AJ Francis beats KC Navarro in a Sactown Street Fight following a Down Payment through two tables on the outside of the ring.



Mike Santana heads to the ring. Santana says he was taught to speak with his actions instead of his words and that it got him to the TNA World Championship, then calls Eric Young a foundational pillar of TNA and says that despite his recent action, he is worthy of respect. He then says that he has made a name for himself out of facing the greats and has beaten them all, then tells Eric Young to bring something different, for he is the one holding down the fort week after week as TNA World Champion. Daria Rae shows up and congratulates Santana, then says Eric Young is not his next opponent, as he never really beat Steve Maclin at Rebellion. She announces that Maclin is cleared to return to the ring, and that they will have a title rematch next week. Daria then says that she ran the match by the board of directors, but not by Director of Authority Santino Marella, and that the board liked the idea. Santino then shows up and implies that Daria cancelled his flight last week. Santino admits he likes the Santana-Maclin rematch, then mentions that Indi Hartwell has just re-signed with TNA and that there are big things in the Knockouts Division with Lei Ying Lee as Knockouts Champion again. Daria says it is real classy that Santino is celebrating the downfall of his daughter, and Santino says that while he loves his daughter, Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo has corrupted her mind, and he wants to get his hands on him. Daria says Stacks would destroy Santino. Santana interrupts, saying that he will beat any challenges for the World Championship.



As per the Bioflex Injury Report: Trey Miguel is out as his knee injury is worse than expected and that he is out indefinitely. Moose is out after the injuries he received after the end of last week's show. EC3 is now out following being put through a table by Eric Young last week and is out indefinitely with neck injuries. AJ Francis and KC Navarro are currently in evaluation after tonight's Sactown Street Fight.

Rosemary and Allie beat Victoria Crawford and Mila Moore.



We hear from "Broken" Matt Hardy. He says that The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) have freed the monsters of the Broken Universe and have freed both him and Brother Nero, and next week, he invites The Righteous to the battlefield. He says The Righteous are talented, but they are mortal men while The Broken Hardys ("Broken" Matt Hardy and Brother Nero) are gods.

Cedric Alexander beats Leon Slater two falls to one (2-1) in a two-out-of-three falls match to win the TNA X-Division Championship, ending Slater's reign at 298 days and tying it with Austin Aries' record setting first reign with the title from 2011 and ending it one day before Slater could claim to be the longest-reigning of all time. Slater earns the first fall with a roll-up early in the match. Alexander scores the second fall after hitting a Lumbar Check. After the match, TNA President Carlos Silva is about to award the title to Alexander when the lights go out and Fabian Aichner - formerly known as Giovanni Vinci in WWE - shows up to end the 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.
