Final iMPACT! - iMPACT! recap for March 19, 2026

The Home Town Man beats Frankie Kazarian with an inside cradle. AJ Francis shows up and gusts on commentary during the match. Later on in the match, AJ Francis leaves commentary and distracts Francis, and inadvertently pulls Home Town Man out of the ring as Kazarian goes for a leg drop, allowing The Home Town Man to win. After the match, the lights go out as AJ Francis and Frankie Kazarian attack The Home Town Man. Elijah shwos up and strikes Francis with a guitar as Kazarian flees.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews The Angel Warriors (Xia Brookside and Lei Ying Lee). Lei Ying Lee says that Arianna Grace stole her title and that while Dani Luna is tough, she still had to cheat to win. Xia says that The Angel Warriors are a team who fight with their hearts and their souls. Lei Ying Lee says she wants her championship rematch as soon as possible, and Brookside says they will send a message to Arianna and Dani.

Backstage, Daria Rae meets with Director of Authority Santino Marella regarding Dani Luna's Knockouts World title shot. Santino mentions Lei Ying Lee's contractually obligated title shot, then puts Lei Ying Lee and Dani Luna in a Triple Threat Match against Arianna Grace for the title.

Before the next match, The Personal Concierge compliments Mr. Elegance's appearance, comparing him to the statue of Zeus in the Acropolis, before introducing Mr. Elegance for his TNA in-ring debut.

Mr. Elegance beats Mike Jackson in his TNA in-ring debut. After the match, The Personal Concierge has The Elegance Brand attack Mike Jackson to teach him a lesson, but ODB shows up with a metal folding chair and lays out Mr. elegance with it. ODB then takes the two cups of baked beans from The Personal Concierge, and she and Mike Jackson pour them on Mr. Elegance.



Backstage, we hear from The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander). Bear Bronson says they have gold within their reach, and warns The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) that he and Myers are coming for the tag team titles and that it will be over when he drops Jeff Hardy on his bad neck. Cedric Alexander tells Leon Slater he owes him an X Division title opportunity and that he has come to collect. Eddie Edwards states that Mike Santana's World title reign will come to a painful, bitter end when he becomes a three-time World Champion. Myers says the history between him and Moose runs deep, and he hopes that Moose remembers what he taught him in order to beat him.

"Doomsday" Dani Luna and Arianna Grace beat The Angel Warriors (Xia Brookside and Lei Ying Lee) despite the two of them not being on the same page as Dani Luna hits Xia Brookside with Luna Landing as Xia Brookside takes out Arianna Grace and Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo on the outside.



As per the Bioflex Injury Report: Leon Slater remains out of action following Eric Young's piledriver on the floor from two weeks ago, but he is returning next week pending some final tests. Indi Hartwell is still out from a knee injury from last week. Cedric Alexander and Moose have suffered wear and tear, and while both men are cleared, Moose has a hip injury; Moose has elected to compete tonight.

Leon Slater shows up on the stage and addresses Eric Young and the piledriver he hit him with on the arena floor two weeks ago, saying that Young could have broken his neck and ended his career. Slater admits that he felt doubt that he would ever get up again, then tells Eric Young that he got back up and that the only think that will be broken will be his foot when he bounces it off Eric Young's head. Slater says that Eric Young tried to break his neck, but he will prove to Eric Young why he is not only unbreakable, but "The Youngest in Charge."



Moose quickly beats Brian Myers in seconds. At the beginning of the match, Director of Authority Santino Marella shows up and bans The System from ringside for this match, and immediately ejects them, complete with "Na Na Hey Hey (The Goodbye Song)" by Steam. This allows Moose to hit a Spear for the pin and the win in mere seconds.



We see the word "Envy." Rosemary summons Allie, and the two of them meet with Raven regarding his jealousy of Tommy Dreamer, and hands Rosemary a vial full of Dreamer's blood from 1995.



Backstage, Brian Myers is furious about tonight's loss, and Eddie Edwards has to get him to focus on The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy). Myers says that Moose will have a big problem next week in Bear Bronson, and that it is time to remind The Hardys who he is. Bear Bronson says that he is coming for Moose.

Mara Sadé guests on commentary for the next match.

Elayna Black beats Jada Stone after Tasha Steelz shows up to distract Jada Stone and trip her out of a backspring move attempt, which allows Elayna Black to hit the Blackout for the win. After the match, Mara Sadé and Elayna Black have a verbal confrontation on the outside, and security gets between them before things get worse. As this goes on, Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero) shows up and surround Jada Stone. All of a sudden, Trey Miguel shows up with a metal folding chair. Order 4 backs down and leaves.



Backstage, Tessa Blanchard, Mila Moore and Victoria Crawford mock the Knockouts division and laugh about attacking Jody Threat. Jody Threat, Myla Grace and Harley Hudson show up and confront them before challenging them to a match. Tessa says "Piece of cake" before her party walks off.

The Nemeths ("The Wanted Man" Nic and "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth) beat The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) after Ryan inadvertently knocks Nic off the apron only for Nic to stay on the outside to hit Vincent with a cheap shot from the outside.



Steve Maclin meets with Mike Santana outside of the arena. We find out they are at a bar of sorts, and Maclin orders two drinks. Santana says that they know each other more than most, and when he came back to TNA, Maclin was the one person who helped him prove to himself that he had what it takes to be in TNA. He knew there was only one stop at the top, but he saw Maclin as a brother and the one who would have his back. Maclin says that Santana is the one with the ego and that he would still speak up for him. Maclin talks about how he stepped up to minesweep for a platoon of twelve men in Afghanistan, knowing any step could have been his last and made it two miles without a casualty. The waiter shows up with the drinks, and Maclin passes one of them to Santana. Throughout the conversation, Maclin drinks up, but Santana does not even touch the glass Maclin has provided for him. Santana says that while Maclin fought someone else's war, he fought a war with himself and made his past a superpower while Maclin made his past his excuse. Santana takes off his sunglasses and hopes Maclin is ready for Sacrifice, and that all the turmoil and drama that Maclin has caused had been for something, for he will have to fight for everything he talked about when the bell rings. He then states that when he wins, all of this will be for nothing, and Maclin will have to go home, look in the mirror and know that he failed, as he was not the man that he said he was. Santana pays for the drinks and passes his back to Maclin, then says "Thank you for your job" and walks away.



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



Thursday, February 26, 2026

Final iMPACT! - iMPACT! recap for February 26, 2026

Frankie Kazarian guests on commentary for the next match.

The Nemeths ("The Wanted Man" Nic and "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth) beat Mike Santana and Leon Slater after Eric Young shows up, distracting Slater and causing Santana to have a stand-off with Eric Young only for Nic Nemeth to get the knees up to block the Swanton 450 and get the win.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch). Vincent says that he and Dutch believe in brotherhood, but now The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) do not want to get close after what happened at No Surrender. Dutch says it was a big misunderstanding and that he has apologized and wants to regain The Hardys' trust. Vincent says The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander) want people to trust them, but systems lose trust while brotherhoods do not. Vincent tells The Hardys to trust them, and everything will be groovy.

Dani Luna beats Lei Ying Lee after sending Lei Ying Lee into a turnbuckle with chains that she wrapped around it when Lei Ying Lee goes for a roll-up.



Backstage, Alisha Edwards meets with Tommy Dreamer and TNA President Carlos Silva. She thanks them for the offer, but with everything going on with The System as well as with her headspace, she will have to decline. Moose shows up and says this is a bad idea, then says that TNA is bigger than The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander) and that he will take care of The System. He then says that TNA needs Alisha, as does Carlos Silva. Alisha signs the contract.

AJ Francis beats Mance Warner by disqualification after Mance Warner hits AJ Francis with a metal folding chair that Francis introduces into the match only to fly into Mance's hands when Steph tries to take it away.



As per the Bioflex Injury Report: Mustafa Ali is out of action following the Guitar Case Casket Match and is undergoing continued evaluation. Jody Threat is out with a rib injury after last week's match, but will return to competition next week. Leon Slater is currently being evaluated following tonight's opening contest.

Mickie James heads to the ring. She says that she has heard what Ash by Elegance had to say about her, then says she has a lot to say and calls Ash out. The Personal Concierge George Iceman shows up, but Mickie tells him to get out. A furious Ash shows up, then calls Mickie James an "irrelevant, washed-up legend. Mickie says she thought Ash was a friend, and reminds Ash that she called her when she was released from WWE and that she called Tommy Dreamer to recommend her to TNA. Ash says TNA was already scouting her and that she was the hottest free agent at that time. Mickie also mentions Ash having Twitter/X beef with former Knockouts World Champions and calls her a mark, Ash says they came after her because she is relevant. Mickie says that if it were not for the fans, Ash would not be in TNA, but she has since turned her back on them, and says she is better than that. Ash says she does not care about the fans and that she only cares about the Knockouts Championship she never lost. Mickie wants to know where the Knockouts title is, as she had to leave the Knockouts Championship in the middle of the ring and has not won it back since, and considers the whole situation embarrassing. Ash says it is none of Mickie's business what happens to her, then says she is standing in the ring because of hard work and proclaims that she is better than the fans, the locker room, the legends and even Mickie. Mickie reminds Ash that she is "Hardcore Country," and if she does not want to talk about things, then they can fight about it. All of a sudden, they can fight about it. Suddenly, The Elegance Brand (The Personal Concierge, Heather by Elegance, M by Elegance, Mr. Elegance) is in the back with Mickie's family, and Mickie heads to the back only for The Elegance Brand to show up and gang up on her. Ash then mockingly hits Mickie with her own DDT on the stage before The Elegance Brand leaves.



Backstage, Director of Authority Santino Marella, Myla Grace and Harley Hudson find Jody Threat laid out, with Tessa Blanchard, Victoria Crawford and Mila Moore responsible. Daria Rae shows up and blames what has happened on Santino, and does not allow him to explain before bringing up Arianna Grace winning the Knockouts World Championship and telling him to get it together.

Jada Stone beats Tasha Steelz after countering a cutter from Tasha with a handstand. After the match, The Great Hands (John Skyler and Jason Hotch) throw Jada Stone back into the ring so Tasha Steelz can hit her with a cutter. Tasha even shoves a referee as she continues to attack Jada.



Tom Hannifan interviews Steve Maclin in the ring. Maclin is surrounded by four security guards on his way there. Maclin says this is about him, not Mike Santana, and the day that he opened the briefcase that told him he was fired and everyone thanking him for everything he had done for TNA. He says that as he was leaving the building, Mike Santana - who he considers the most selfish person in TNA - thanked him for his selflessness. He says that he and Santana had a brotherhood, but Santana broke it long before the attack. He mentions that Santana did not show up for their tag team match at Turning Point, and that Santana told him that something came up and that he was stuck in a meeting. Maclin then says he could keep showing up and talking about his personal problems, including his alcohol problems in WWE as well as his PTSD, but he laces his boots up and keeps a smile on his face. He then accuses Hannifan of sounding just like the fans, and says Hannifan is only in the ring and at the announce table every week because he got him this job. Hannifan says it killed him to see Maclin lose his job, and that he tried everything as his friend to help him personally, then says multiple people have gone to bat for him for the last two years more than Maclin will ever know, but one cannot help one who cannot listen. He says that Maclin has been fined for the same things multiple times over and has failed to take any accountability, and asks why Maclin should be any different from anyone else in the locker room. Maclin strikes Hannifan in the gut with his microphone, then Mike Santana shows up from out of the crowd. Maclin gets out of the ring as Santana gets in. When Matthew Rehwoldt confronts Maclin, Maclin shoves him. Santana then checks on Hannifan.



Gia Miller replaces Tom Hannifan on commentary for the rest of the night.

The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander) beat The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) and The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) in an eight-man tag match after Vincent tags himself in and takes a Boston Knee Party meant for Matt Hardy after shoving Matt out of the way. After the match, The System go back on the attack, but Moose shows up and fights off The System one by one. He is soon outnumbered and overpowered. Alisha Edwards gets in the ring and protects Moose to end the show.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Alisha Edwards). Eddie says Moose's match is the first step towards Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz) getting what is coming to them, and that he and Myers are going to kick ass against The Nemeths tonight. Myers says JDC is down, but will come back better. Alisha states that The System will win tonight.

All three members of The Rascalz (Trey Miguel, Zachary Wentz, Myron Reed) are in the treehouse celebrating Trey Miguel's return. Wentz mentions their four-way match against Jake Something and says that if they put their heads together, one of them can get a title shot. The Rascalz then get high before comedically arguing over who will get the title shot.

Before the next match, Eric Young tells Joe Hendry that this is his last chance before stating that Hendry is the problem and that he will learn the hard way. He says tonight will be Hendry's greatest contribution to wrestling and that the fans will believe in him instead of Hendry. Travis Williams then attacks Hendry from behind, starting the next match.

Joe Hendry beats Travis Williams, then runs away from Eric Young and Judas Icarus - who have been ejected from ringside for Icarus' involvement in the match - after the match. After the match, Eric Young is about to attack Travis Williams, but Judas Icarus stops him. Eric Young then makes Icarus attack Williams, but when he hesitates, Young punches Icarus in the face and hits both men with piledrivers.



Backstage, Matt Cardona says he lost to Frankie Kazarian because of "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth. He says that multiple people do not like Ryan and that he does not, either, and dares Ryan to stick his nose in his business again.

Victoria Crawford introduces the first edition of "The Mentor U Podcast." Tonight's guest is Gia Miller, who walks up to the stage. Crawford asks Gia Miller how it feels to leave anybody home with no job and no money, and reminds her that the person in question is Tessa Blanchard. Gia says Tessa has nobody to blame but herself for her suspension. Crawford demands Gia Miller unsuspend Tessa, then blames Gia Miller for everything, even after Gia states that Crawford was part of the attack and blames both her and Tessa for it. Jody Threat shows up and stands between them before things get worse.



Leon Slater guests on commentary for the next match.

Myron Reed beats Jake Something, Trey Miguel and Zachary Wentz in a Fatal 4-Way Match to become #1 contender for the TNA X Division Championship after hitting Jake Something with a top rope 450 splash while Trey and Wentz fight over who pins Jake Something.

Director of Authority Santino Marella shows up and makes M face Cassie Lee after the commercial break.

Cassie Lee beats M by Elegance after Heather by Elegance gets involved in the match and Jessie McKay takes Heather down for doing it.

We see a preview of the newest episode of Immersed.

We hear from Steve Maclin, who says that he has defended the International Championship and has let nobody through, for he has held the line in TNA with his blood, sweat and tears. He says that Frankie Kazarian's opinion means nothing to him and that he is the present and future of TNA while Kazarian knows his time is running out and that all monarchs will fall. He says that Kazarian will soon be "King Nothing" while he will continue to be "the same old jarhead."

Backstage, The Personal Concierge George Iceman wants a stipulation for Ash by Elegance's Knockouts title match with Masha Slamovich from Director of Authority Santino Marella, stating that Masha is dangerous. Santino makes the match a no-disqualification Match by Elegance, then offers Indi Hartwell the opportunity to be the special guest referee. Indi accepts and says that she will call the match right down the middle, but the Concierge accuses her of bias. This also leads to Heather by Elegance and M by Elegance having to defend the Knockouts tag titles against The IInspiration (Jessie McKay and Cassie Lee) at Victory Road as well as a six-woman tag match between The Elegance Brand and The IInspiration and Masha Slamovich.

Before the next match, Mike Santana is attacked from behind by Trick Williams in the crowd. Security has to restore order and keep both men separated.

Thursday, July 31, 2025

Final iMPACT! - iMPACT! recap for July 31, 2025

Leon Slater retains the TNA X Division Championship against Jason Hotch and Cedric Alexander in a three-way match. After the match, Cedric and Slater have a staredown in the middle of the ring.



Backstage, Gabby LaSpisa interviews Masha Slamovich. Masha says Jacy Jayne is going to be sorry that she had to step in the ring with her again tonight, and says that Jacy Jayne will not be on top of the world for long, as she made the Knockouts division violent and the Knockouts World Championship meaningful, and that Jacy will have the fight of her life.

Backstage, Leon Slater is met by Cedric Alexander, who congratulates him on the win tonight. Slater says he wants to be a fighting champion and the fans want to see them in a one-on-one match. Cedric reminds Slater that he did not pin him tonight, and until then, the X Division Championship is up for grabs.

Indi Hartwell and Dani Luna beat Jody Threat and Arianna Grace after Dani Luna escapes Pop Shove It to hit the Luna Landing. During the match, Victoria Crawford shows up to get a closer look at the match.



Backstage, Jake Something talks about how he went to war with Mance Warner and got him out of the way. As he tells Maclin that the International Championship was made for him, Maclin shows up, and the two men have a staredown.

The Rascalz (Myron Reed and Zachary Wentz) beat The Nemeths ("The Wanted Man" Nic and "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth). After the commercial break, The Nemeths refuse to leave the ring. Nic Nemeth says that the TNA World Tag Team Championships were stolen from them at Slammiversary and that nobody can be as good as them, calling the loss "a fluke." He then invokes their rematch clause to win back the tag team titles at Emergence. Ryan says The Hardys did not even pin them and that they won the match with a ladder, then says that Rhode Island sucks before making fun of it. This brings the attention of The Home Town Man, who does not take the mockery of his home town sitting down and defends Rhode Island after he shows up. He demands an apology for his hometown, but Ryan refuses, saying he will not apologize to an idiot and a goofball. The Home Town Man somehow stops The Nemeths from revealing that he is Cody Deaner and leads the fans into song, and Nic demands that The Home Town Man get out of their ring. The Home Town Man gives The Nemeths one last chance to apologize, but this leads to The Nemeths ganging up on The Home Town Man and attempting to unmask him. They unmask him, but The Home Town Man is able to cover his face with help from security, who soon gets superkicked by Nic Nemeth until The Rascalz rush back into the ring, saving The Home Town Man's mask as they force The Nemeths to retreat.



Mike Santana shows up in the crowd. He says that the eyes of the wrestling world were locked in on Slammiversary, yet he lost. He says he has been at the bottom before, but every time he was at the bottom, especially when his father passed away and he was doubted and counted out, he fought. He says that the hardest thing he had to deal with was looking across the ring and looking at the front row watching the tears roll down his daughter's face. He knew he had to put everything aside and confront his daughter and tell her everything will be okay, and his daughter told him that he was going to win the TNA World Championship next time. He says that on the drive back home, he knew what needed to be done, and that it is not a matter of if, but when he wins the TNA World Championship.



Masha Slamovich beats Jacy Jayne by disqualification after Masha is attacked from behind by Ash by Elegance with one of the Knockouts World Tag Team Championship belts. Heather by Elegance and M by Elegance show up as Ash argues with Fallon Henley and Jazmyn Nyx, and this also leads to Xia Brookside and Lei Ying Lee showing up to help Masha up. Jacy Jayne retains the TNA Knockouts World Championship.



As per the Bioflex Injury Report, Gia Miller is cleared following a head injury suffered from Tessa Blanchard at Slammiversary. Moose is cleared following a hip injury. Elijah is still out with a torn triceps, but recovery is going well. Jake Something is cleared following some bruising during his match with Mance Warner, as is Warner himself.

Backstage, AJ Francis and Trick Williams find out that KC Navarro cannot be cleared tonight, and this leads to tonight's six-man tag match main event becoming a tag team match.

We hear from Mara Sadé, who talks about her athletic background as well as how much she enjoys being in the wrestling ring. She hopes to build on the legacy that was built by the TNA Knockouts.

Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz) and their tall Secret Service agent head to the ring for their Slammiversary victory celebration. Mustafa Ali says that TNA is full of chaos and disorder due to outsiders infiltrating their locker room, taking opportunities away from TNA talent and taking TNA's championship. He says that it is time for change, and that change lies with Order 4. Mustafa says he will go to war with The Great Hands (Skyler and Hotch) at his side and that Tasha Steelz will make sure his word is heard around the world. He then announces that his weapon of mass destruction - Agent Zero, the tall head of his Secret Service - will make sure no one opposes him. Mustafa then asks who wants to see him as TNA World Champion, then says the fans' boos mean nothing to him as he knows that they cheer for people like Mike Santana and Joe Hendry. Joe Hendry says that there are no secrets in TNA and that there are cameras everywhere, some of which have captured some embarassing footage of John Skyler backstage. We then see footage of a Joe Hendry plushie with a John Skyler mask covering the face in an attempt to embarrass Skyler, with the last of the footage showing the plushie at a toilet. Mustafa Ali says that Hendry is a joke and that he wishes he could make Hendry disappear when he says his name. This leads to Hendry challengeing Mustafa to a match in the ring tonight, and Mustafa accepts for next week to give Hendry and everyone else to prepare for something to truly believe in. Hendry says the only thing Order 4 will be ordering is ear plugs when the fans chant "We believe."



In footage from earlier today, Tom Hannifan interviews Sami Callihan. Callihan says he is embarrassed, and while he is not mad at Moose, he is disgusted with himself. He thinks that maybe Moose is right and that he has been the same, and that he has always suffered with weight issues. He feels that being in front of the camera is a disservice, and when asked if he is retiring, Callihan calls out Mike Santana for a match at Emergence; if he wins, he could be on to a comeback; if he loses, he hangs up his boots for good.

The System (Eddie Edwards and Moose) beat Trick Williams and AJ Francis after KC Navarro aims for Moose for his crutches only to hit AJ Francis instead.



Thursday, July 10, 2025

Final iMPACT! - iMPACT! recap for July 10, 2025

The Personal Concierge George Iceman is in the ring. He calls Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania "an actual cesspool," and if he had to give an enema anywhere in America, he would stick the holes right here. He then introduces The Elegance Brand (Ash by Elegance, Heather by Elegance, M by Elegance), and Ash by Elegance rips up a Terrible Towel.

The Elegance Brand (Ash by Elegance and Heather by Elegance) beat Harley Hudson and Myla Grace after M by Elegance stops Harley Hudson from making the save.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) and The Rascalz (Zachary Wentz and Myron Reed). Matt says they are feeling good before tonight's main event and thanks The Rascalz for stepping up. Wentz says that Trey Miguel is suffering from a hernia and cannot compete tonight, and he had to call up Myron Reed. Matt mentions the ladder match for the TNA World Tag Team Championships at Slammiversary and that they should cooperate tonight before the big mach. He then tells Jeff Hardy that it is "do or die" time.

Cedric Alexander and The Great Hands (John Skyler and Jason Hotch) beat Mustafa Ali's Secret Service in a six-man tag match. After the match, Mustafa Ali shows up and attacks The Great Hands before hitting Cedric with a metal folding chair. As Cedric is about to get the upper hand, Tasha Steelz hits Cedric with a low blow, then kicks the chair to Mustafa and leaves. Mustafa takes out Cedric, but is stunned by Tasha Steelz's actions as he also heads to the back.



Xia Brookside is in Lei Ying Lee and Masha Slamovich's corner for the next match.

Lei Ying Lee and Masha Slamovich beat The Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne and Fallon Henley).



As per the Bioflex Injury Report, Trey Miguel is still out with a hernia. Killer Kelly is still out with an upper body injury following her chain match with Macha Slamovich. Matt Cardona is out with a lower back injury following last week's attack by DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, Osiris Griffin).

Backstage, Leon Slater is met by Moose, who tells Slater that he has no chance of beating him as the rest of The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, JDC) backs him up. Slater says he looks forward to beating Moose and becoming the youngest TNA X Division Champion in history. Moose says he has done everything in TNA and that he will move on and become the longest-reigning X Division Champion while Slater will just be another name on his list. Slater tells Moose that he will give him the toughest fight of his life at Slammiversary. Matt Cardona shows up and accuses The System of finding enjoyment in him being attacked by DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, Osiris Griffin), then says they are coming after everyone in TNA. When Cardona says that he needs backup, The System laugh him off and leave, and while Myers wants to say something, he cannot.

Steve Maclin retains the TNA International Championship against Mance Warner and Jake Something in a Triple Threat Match.



Outside of the arena, Mustafa Ali wants Tasha Steelz to explain her action. The Great Hands (John Skyler and Jason Hotch) also show up. Tasha Steelz says she is tired of all of them, stating that nobody is holding championship gold and that Mustafa Ali has went down a downward spiral, and while she made the call to Cedric Alexander to play all of them and have Cedric save her, Order 4 (Mustafa, Skyler, Hotch, Steelz) is what really needs saving. She says that her plan has given Mustafa a marquee match with Cedric. She also tells The Great Hands to worry about their jobs, as they had nothing but now have so many zeroes in their paychecks. After asking where they all were before Order 4, then states that they are going into Slammiversary as a unit. Mustafa tells Steelz that she lied to them, and while Steelz admits this, she also admits that she saved him. Mustafa proclaims that with no chaos in front of them, they can become the greatest faction in TNA history. As they leave, they are confronted by The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Moose, JDC), who challenge Order 4 to see who is the greatest faction next week. Mustafa says he has a lot going on, but Steelz accepts on Order 4's behalf.

We see a message from Fourth Rope featuring Real1 aka NZO.

We hear from Mike Santana, who says that his journey to becoming TNA World Champion started five years ago when his father died, and while things initally gotten worse, things got better, and the toughest obstacles taught the brightest lessons. He says that God has blessed him with the ability to suffer and use it as motivation to push forward, which is what he has done in life and in TNA. He says that each obstacle has gotten him to the main event of Slammiversary, where he not only represents himself, but also TNA, and he will become champion and bring the TNA World Championship home.

Tessa Blanchard guests on commentary for the next match.

Indi Hartwell beats Victoria Crawford despite the cheap shot by Tessa Blanchard. After the match, Tessa accusses Indi of ruining friendships and knowing nothing about loyalty, then syas Indi can copy the look and study the moves, but she has carried her dead weight for years, and if it were not for her, she would still be wrestling in Australia for a meat pie and a handshake. She says that all of Indi's successes are because of her, then says she will end this at Slammiversary because Indi is nothing but "forgettable."

Backstage, Director of Authority Santino Marella and NXT-TNA Liaison Arianna Grace are met by The Northern Armory. He wants to know why he is being kicked out of arenas while Cody Deaner is rehired as "The Home Town Man," the latter of which Santino denies. Eric Young reminds Santino that he was "Super Eric," then produces The Home Town Man's mask and says he wants The Home Town Man gone forever, but Santino says he wants hard proof that Cody Deaner is The Home Town Man, and if he can prove it, The Home Town Man will be gone from TNA forever.

We see Tom Hannifan's interview with Joe Hendry. Hendry says he has been watching TNA since 2002 and that it pains him that Trick Williams does not appreciate TNA's history, and while Trick cut corners, he takes responsibility for this happening as he lost the TNA World Championship in the first place. He says that Mike Santana will be the guy one day, but what he himself has done in TNA is unprecedented, as he took the World Championship to mainstream places and defending it on a regular basis.
