Rebellion 2026 - The LIVE Results



The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander) shows up during the countdown, with Biran Myers calling Cleveland, Ohio "the mistake on the lake." He tells the fans to take a snapshot of their ticket stubs, as it will be the end of The Hardys' (Jeff and Matt Hardy) tag team title reign. Bear Bronson asks the fans if it makes them mad, and proclaims that when they are done with The Hardys, there will be nothing left but the memories. Cedric Alexander mentions Leon Slater being on his way to becoming the longest-reigning X-Division Champion of all time, then declares that he will become the new X-Division Champion tonight. Eddie states that The System is where the power lies and that The System run TNA, and that he will take the TNA World Championship for a third time and deliver it to The System where it belongs. He says the fans will not want to miss this, because if they do, they will miss the moment where TNA changes and Mike Santana learns that you cannot beat The System.

"The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth heads to the ring. He talks about how he was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio and mentions that his parents are at ringside tonight, then states that while "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth was his father's favorite of the two, his mother came to everything he ever did. He also mentioning his father raising him and Nic to be Cleveland Browns fans, then talks about how he took advice from his good friend Art Modell and got out of Cleveland. He then removes his pants in one quick motion to reveal that he is a Pittsburgh Steelers fans, then mentions that the ring announcer is stupid for marrying someone from Cleveland before introducing BDE as his opponent and as being from "somewhere in Ohio." Ryan says he has more to say, but BDE attacks him before he can say it, starting the next match.

She thanks the fans, the wrestlers and everyone in the back, and tells the wrestlers to keep doing what they are doing.





Backstage, we hear from Elayna Black, who is not happy to be in Cleveland, Ohio but is enjoying the free flight and drinks. She says she will be watching the Knockouts title match and that she will be coming for the title, and that TNA will live in "The Era of Elayna."

EC3 clotheslines Eric Young out of the ring, then proclaims that he is back and challenges Eric Young to a match next Thursday. EC3 then says that he is here for one reason: "I'm from Cleveland, bitch!"

Meanwhile, Victoria Crawford is screaming as she runs through the corridors of the Undead Realm, and Tessa Blanchard is not liking anything that she is seeing as she explores. Father James Mitchell says that he owes Abyss an apology after everything that has happened, but Abyss says there is no need to apologize, as without him, there is no Abyss, as he provided a family, shelter and guidance when he had none. Abyss reminisces about their dominance and how he won his first TNA World Heavyweight Championship, saying that he will never forget and the many battles that he had with Sting, AJ Styles and even Sabu. Father James Mitchell tells Abyss that he made his dreams of being a mad scientist come true and gave him the best years of his life. Abyss calls Father James Mitchell his guidance, his hope and his father, and says he gave him life and they dominated TNA. He says that while the history books will show that, they will never show how much he loves Father James Mitchell. Abyss then says he must leave, then they do the "Click! Doomsday!" thing before Abyss laughs and teleports away. We then see Rosemary and the words "To Be Continued."

Chris Bey beats Rohit Raju, Suicide and Trey Miguel in a four-way match.



It is announced that Jordynne Grace and Taya Valkyrie are not here and will not be competing tonight.

We see Josh Matthews interview Tessa Blanchard via webcam. Tessa says it destroys her that she cannot be at the show tonight due to current world events, and that she is bettering herself right now to come back better than ever. She says that Michael Elgin loves to make bold claims and that she would love to shut him up.

Joey Ryan - officially known as Joseph P. Ryan - beats Cousin Jake after rolling him up and using the ropes for leverage.



Rosemary is still at a bar, talking with Taya Valkyrie via phone about their Full Metal Mayhem match. Taya - saying that she did not want to be in the match - says that she looks like a wreck, that her dog Presley won't eat, and that Jordynne Grace makes her sick. Rosemary tells Taya that Havok has replaced Grace in the match, but Taya says tells Rosemary that Havok is all hers. Rosemary tells her she's already beaten her, and tells her to show up for the match. When it becomes obvious that Taya won't show and that she is planning a trip to Las Vegas if Rosemary wins, Rosemary tells Taya that she owes her, saying she is lucky the "prospects" at the bar are "dead."

Rosemary beats Havok in a Full Metal Match with a lead pipe. During the match, someone is seen watching from behind the barricade. Madison Rayne identifies this woman as "Nevaeh," but does not elaborate further, and it seems that Havok knows who Nevaeh is.



Backstage, Willie Mack says it felt great to win the X Division Championship, as he used to watch the X Division when the greats of the division have their great matches back then. Rich Swann says that Willie has what it takes to be the champion.

Swann says that Swinger smells like cheap tanner.

The Impact Plus Flashback Moment of the Week is Sami Callihan vs. Rich Swann in an oVe Rules Match for the Impact X Division Championship at Rebellion 2019.

In footage from earlier today, Michael Elgin says he is disappointed that Eddie Edwards and Tessa Blanchard aren't here so he can send them to the hospital on the way to becoming World Champion. He insists that he will become World Champion tonight.

Michael Elgin shows up. He says that Rebellion holds a special place in his heart, as he came to Impact to make a statement and become World Champion. His sights have been set on the title for the last year, and tonight, the dream was going to be realized. However, he is in the ring with a microphone instead of two opponents, as Tessa Blanchard has bitten off more than she can chew and Eddie doesn't want anymore of him after their best-of-five series. He demands a referee come into the ring, and referee Brandon Tolle shows up. As he demands that the ref raises his hand, he demands that ring announced David Penzer get into the ring. When he refuses, he threatens to put him in the ring. Penzer gets in the ring. Elgin then demands that Penzer proclaim him new World Champion as the referee raises his hand, and as all of this goes down, the lights go down and Moose's entrance music suddenly hits. Moose is on the stage, and when he unties the sash around his robe, he is wearing the TNA World Heavyweight Championship around his waist as he heads into the ring. Moose says he understands Elgin's pain, and Elgin says that the World Championship is his. As Moose proclaims himself TNA World Heavyweight Champions, Elgin says that TNA's name - which Moose has been running down - is now Impact and tells Moose to go back to the mid-card. Moose says that while Elgin had a "playdate" with Eddie Edwards, he ran down every wrestler than came to TNA, and says that if Elgin wants a piece of his title, all he has to do is ask. When Elgin says he takes, not asks, Hernandez shows up. Hernandez says that Moose likes to run his mouth, and says that where he comes from, you have to beat somebody to become World Champion. He tells both men to start fighting, and that there is no fight without him. This starts a match.



Moose beats Hernandez and Michael Elgin in a three-way match. After the match, Moose demands David Penzer address him as TNA World Heavyweight Champion. He does.

Jeff Jarrett shows up with a vacuum cleaner before the next match. He says he has already proved his point across the point in the United States that women are only good for cooking, cleaning and making babies. Tonight, he has £1000 for any woman who can prove his point that there is only one place in the world for a woman: in the kitchen, barefoot and pregnant. He then says that by the look of the women in the United Kingdom, he would keep them in the house under lock and key. A young woman is picked to to vacuum oatmeal off the mat, then gets put in the Figure Four Leg Lock. Chyna runs into the ring and fights Jarrett, clotheslining him out of the ring.

Suddenly, The British Bulldog shows up and says nobody cares about her or her match with Jarrett, as the Birmingham, England crowd came to see him. Chyna tells Bulldog he resembles the ass end of a bulldog as she leaves. He wants a match against Triple H for the WWF Championship, not X-Pac, and will demand one from WWF Chairman Vince McMahon immediately.

Before the next match, Val Venis says everyone knows the Rugby World Cup is going on right now, and that "The Big Valbowski" and the game of rugby have a lot in common: the game is played with balls, and sometimes, it can get a little rough; however, the object of the game is to always score.

Before the next match, The Rock says that twenty minutes ago, he heard Triple H run his mouth like he is a big shot about how he has beaten him all over the country. He says that Triple H has spent too much time in Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, and somewhere in La-La Land, he has been playing with Oompa-Loompas, eating his Wonka Bars and getting the Everlasting Gobstopper, and if Triple H wants to spend his leife in La-La Land, then he plans to take an Oompa-Loompa, shine it up real nice, turn it sideways and stick him straight up Triple H's candy ass. The Rock then sees someone giving him a thumbs down and holding a sign up, and when he asks what it says, he cuts the person off by saying "It doesn't matter what your sign says!"
