FunTranscript
00:00:00Once more tonight, TMA Impact is in Tampa, with roughly two months remaining until we
00:00:07hit Detroit, Michigan for our biggest event of the year, Bound for Glory.
00:00:12But who will break out tomorrow evening at the sold-out Emergence event?
00:00:20The following contest is set for one fall.
00:00:23Introducing first, being accompanied by AJ Frexes, representing First Class,
00:00:29Rich Swann!
00:00:31And what a way to begin the final edition of Impact before Emergence tomorrow night,
00:00:36live on TNA Plus in Louisville, Kentucky.
00:00:39An X-Division championship match, and a first-time-ever encounter, Swann versus Bailey.
00:00:46Let's take a look at the X-Factors for this matchup.
00:00:49Speedballs on the record having said, quote,
00:00:51If I can't win, I don't deserve to be champion.
00:00:54So when First Class got his face last week,
00:00:56Bailey was more than willing to put the title on the line to prove that against Swann.
00:01:00Whomever wins this matchup will defend the X-Division championship
00:01:04tomorrow night in Ultimate X, sold-out at Emergence.
00:01:18His opponent, being accompanied by Trent Steffen,
00:01:21he is the TNA X-Division champion!
00:01:26Speedballs by Bailey!
00:01:29This is the first of two championship matches we're going to see tonight.
00:01:33We'll see a match by Elegance.
00:01:35Jordan Grace is defending the TNA Knockout World Championship against Asphy Elegance
00:01:40in a Falls Count Anywhere style of bout.
00:01:43Also, the reigning TNA World Champion, Josh Alexander,
00:01:47will have their final face-off before Emergence,
00:01:50moderated by Matthew Rehwald.
00:01:52Plus, Eddie Edwards of the System tries to take out Mike Santana.
00:01:56Brian Myers of the System is going to try and take out Joe Hendry before Emergence.
00:02:01And also, Hammerstone versus Eric Young.
00:02:04Those two go at it one more time.
00:02:06We are joined here on commentary by AJ Friantz.
00:02:09Are you done, Tom? Are you done? We got a guest, baby!
00:02:11Thank you, brother. I appreciate it.
00:02:12First Class in the house!
00:02:13Ball Brothers unite.
00:02:14Unfortunately, you're here too tough.
00:02:16Yeah, we got to deal with it.
00:02:17AJ, this could be huge for Emergence.
00:02:20As of now, Bayley is set to defend the X Division Championship
00:02:24in Ultimate X tomorrow night.
00:02:26If he loses the title to Swann right now,
00:02:28it's going to be a fast turnaround for Swann.
00:02:30He'll have to defend the title in Ultimate X.
00:02:33I mean, that's what he's here for.
00:02:34That's why he's a former World Champion.
00:02:36That's why he's a former X Division Champion.
00:02:38He's one of the best to ever lace him up in TNA.
00:02:41And I can't be happier for this man to get this opportunity he deserves.
00:02:45He's going to win this match, bring that gold to First Class
00:02:48like we've always needed and we've always deserved.
00:02:50That's right.
00:02:51First Class had their eyes on every bit of gold in this company.
00:02:55Why not start here again, making up the X Division title?
00:02:58And doesn't he look good?
00:02:59Look at that bedazzled belt.
00:03:03And we have some company from high above tonight.
00:03:06Trey Miguel and Zachary Wentz,
00:03:08who this weekend will face Wes Lee at NXT No Mercy.
00:03:12First tomorrow night at Emergence on TNA+.
00:03:15He'll challenge for the X Division title in Ultimate X.
00:03:18Can a brother get an invite to the Treehouse?
00:03:20What's going on?
00:03:21I don't know if they like you that much.
00:03:22That's crazy.
00:03:23That is crazy.
00:03:24That's crazy.
00:03:25I'm the plug.
00:03:26What's going on?
00:03:27Bailey showing some respect here for Rich Swann.
00:03:29As I mentioned, a first time ever matchup between two brilliant athletes.
00:03:33Absolutely.
00:03:34And look, man, both of them, I had to have nothing but my respect.
00:03:37Speedball Mike Bailey, one of the best in the world.
00:03:39No doubt.
00:03:40He's just not First Class.
00:03:41He's just not Rich Swann.
00:03:42Look at this.
00:03:43Man can't even afford shoes.
00:03:45You know what I'm saying?
00:03:46You know how much I spit on these shoes?
00:03:49Look at those shoes.
00:03:50Look at those shoes just hit them.
00:03:52Now Bailey retorts.
00:03:55See, that's not fair.
00:03:56What if Swann ends up with foot and mouth disease after that dropkick?
00:04:00Swann and Bailey mirroring each other.
00:04:03That's exactly what AJ Francis is talking about, though, man.
00:04:06You're the best, no doubt about it.
00:04:08Rich is reason.
00:04:09He's got the reputation he's gotten.
00:04:11We've talked about Rich is in some of the best shape of his life tonight.
00:04:14Yeah, he's just going right here.
00:04:16He's really focused in on what he needs to be able to be at championship level again.
00:04:21He looks better than he has.
00:04:23And he got a hell of a right hand.
00:04:25That's a champion, in your opinion, showing a lot of disrespect for Bailey.
00:04:29I mean, you ain't got to respect the people you beat up.
00:04:31Well, all I got to say is the Rich Swann we saw before First Class,
00:04:35before AJ Francis came around.
00:04:38He had lost a lot of confidence.
00:04:40Now, he's in a rough part of this matchup.
00:04:43Yeah, I mean, that should be illegal what he just did to my baby.
00:04:46I agree. I'll take the ring.
00:04:48Yeah.
00:04:49I don't care what he's doing.
00:04:52Easy speedball. Easy speedball.
00:04:55I'll knock your nose through the back of your head.
00:04:56Keep on.
00:04:59We'll have Rich do it.
00:05:00We'll have Rich do it for you.
00:05:01Don't need to.
00:05:02Francis, if you had made contact with him, the match would have been thrown out.
00:05:05Oh, and now Swann drops Bailey.
00:05:08That's why I stood here.
00:05:09I'm a nice distraction in all these beautiful colors.
00:05:11I'm hard to miss.
00:05:12Swann rolls back inside, resets the 10 count.
00:05:14The title can only change hands.
00:05:16We have pinfall or submission inside the ring.
00:05:18Why does Trent Seven's whole deal have to do about mustache?
00:05:21He has a beard and everything.
00:05:22He's just skipping everything else.
00:05:23He's not even waxed.
00:05:26I think he's proud of the mustache in particular.
00:05:29So now, Swann focusing in on speedball.
00:05:33AJ, it seems like maybe first class has been a little greedy.
00:05:37Maybe spread too thin.
00:05:38You've focused on multiple championships over the last few months.
00:05:42Yeah, I mean, I didn't get to the NFL by, you know, making sure that I keep my goals at a slight level.
00:05:48I'm trying to reach the moon.
00:05:49If you shoot for the stars, you fail and fall in the clouds.
00:05:52You feel what I'm saying?
00:05:53Well, at the University of Maryland, they keep their goals low, if I remember.
00:05:56That's not true.
00:05:58That's why we don't shake people from Penn State, man.
00:06:01That's when we beat them.
00:06:08Dragon screw there by Swann and the champions in trouble.
00:06:12Hold on. Shoulders down.
00:06:13Bailey, great counter there.
00:06:14Kick out.
00:06:15That left knee.
00:06:16Yeah, the knee.
00:06:18It's starting to affect speedball, Mike Bailey.
00:06:20Now, Rich Swann is focused in.
00:06:24Yeah, man.
00:06:25Speedball hasn't had a battle like this since he was working with athletes.
00:06:29I'd say he had a hell of a battle at Slammiversary, beating Mustafa Ali for the X Division title.
00:06:39Make sure Rich has all his team.
00:06:42Just buy him some new ones.
00:06:45Yeah, we got gold.
00:06:46We can get some gold for that.
00:06:47You're right.
00:06:48Ice them out.
00:06:50See, these people cheer for speedball.
00:06:51They have no taste.
00:06:53I mean, we're in Tampa, Florida.
00:06:54What do you expect?
00:06:55Ain't none of them ever flown first class.
00:06:59But seriously, though, how is this not regulated that he has to wear shoes?
00:07:03Oh, running, shooting star.
00:07:05Here's the cover.
00:07:06Oh, and a kick out.
00:07:07Trying to retain his championship.
00:07:09Swann staying alive, resilient as ever.
00:07:12It's going to take a lot more than that to put down Rich Homie Swann.
00:07:15When I first got in the business, people got mad that I wore Jordan.
00:07:17You don't even got to wear shoes.
00:07:19It's been a problem.
00:07:21I've always had a problem with it.
00:07:24And now Bailey is loading up.
00:07:26Swann in the corner.
00:07:27Wait for the tornado kick.
00:07:29Swann able to evade.
00:07:39Big kick right to the face.
00:07:43Can he capture the X Division title?
00:07:45And a kick out.
00:07:46Come on, now.
00:07:47Look at that boy, Swanny, man.
00:07:49Stay on him, Swanny.
00:07:50Stay on him.
00:07:52Swann with those kicks can be devastating.
00:07:56Mike Bailey is feeling that right now.
00:07:58The whole reason I wanted him to be a part of First Class with me
00:08:01and run First Class with me is because I didn't want to get kicked by the man.
00:08:04That's right.
00:08:05Safe move.
00:08:06Former TNA World Champion.
00:08:08Former X Division Champion for TNA Digital Media Champion as well.
00:08:13And the only thing he's missing is the tag title.
00:08:15And look at Bailey.
00:08:16He mentioned the tag titles a bunch.
00:08:19How does he not break his toes?
00:08:22Sunset flip.
00:08:23Swann, does he have Bailey here?
00:08:25No, a kick out.
00:08:27Uh-oh.
00:08:28To the double knees.
00:08:29Able to land on his feet.
00:08:30Swann trying to keep up with Bailey.
00:08:32Oh, great action here to begin the impact tonight.
00:08:37Oh, double kick.
00:08:39Swann and Bailey are tied.
00:08:41Yeah!
00:08:45The Rascals watching here in Tampa, Florida.
00:08:48They love the action for this X Division title match.
00:08:52That was absolutely incredible.
00:08:54The best athletes in this world doing things that I could never do.
00:08:57That's right. There they are.
00:08:58Zachary Wentz particularly getting a little preview.
00:09:01One of these men is going to be in that Ultimate X match
00:09:04with them defending the X Division title at Emergence.
00:09:07As of right now, it's Zachary Wentz, Laredo Kid, NXT's Riley,
00:09:10Osborne, Hammerstone, and Jason Hodge
00:09:13who make up the five challengers in Ultimate X tomorrow night.
00:09:17The question is, who's going to be the X Division champion
00:09:20defending the title at Emergence in Ultimate X?
00:09:23I mean, all five of them great competitors to lose to Rich Swann.
00:09:26I mean, it's wild. I mean, look at this.
00:09:28Whoa!
00:09:29This is a first time ever matchup, guys.
00:09:31And it seems like these two mirror each other.
00:09:33What?
00:09:34Whoa!
00:09:35Moonstone to the outside by Bailey.
00:09:40That was incredible.
00:09:41You can't take nothing away from Speedball, man.
00:09:43I don't know what a Speedball is, but he does.
00:09:46Oh!
00:09:48Look at this. Atkins is not stopping here.
00:09:51This is the X Division, ladies and gentlemen.
00:09:53Rich Swann about to be at the top of it.
00:09:56Is he going to win the X Division title?
00:09:58Oh, my God!
00:09:59Class blast!
00:10:00Cover!
00:10:01Bailey kicked out of the first class class.
00:10:04Oh, my God.
00:10:06Oh, I thought that was it.
00:10:082.99 there.
00:10:11TNA! TNA! TNA! TNA!
00:10:15When are they going to find a way to put Jay Frazier at the end of that chain?
00:10:18TNA! TNA! TNA!
00:10:20I've always liked that.
00:10:21Going for another cutter.
00:10:24Now, Bailey, great action here.
00:10:26Bailey.
00:10:27Oh!
00:10:28Kicked right across the chest.
00:10:29Going for the double knee.
00:10:30This time he got it.
00:10:32Caving in the chest of Swann.
00:10:33To retain the title.
00:10:35And a kick out.
00:10:36Swann remaining resilient.
00:10:39That was weighing heavy on my spirit right there.
00:10:41I can't lie.
00:10:42Do the best the X Division has to offer.
00:10:44Oh!
00:10:45That thrust kick.
00:10:50Oh!
00:10:51Kicked right to the head.
00:10:52I can't watch this for much longer.
00:10:53Hold on.
00:10:54Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:10:55Francis.
00:10:56Francis trying to get involved in a trick.
00:10:58Seven bringing Francis off the apron.
00:11:01Oh!
00:11:04Seven trying to get physical with A.J. Francis.
00:11:06Meanwhile.
00:11:07Oh!
00:11:08Bailey went for ultimate weapon.
00:11:09Swann able to roll out of the way.
00:11:11Look at Swann.
00:11:12Swann.
00:11:13Does he have the X Division title?
00:11:14Now a kick out.
00:11:16Moments.
00:11:17Seconds.
00:11:18Milliseconds away.
00:11:19Let's go, Speedball.
00:11:20Let's go, baby.
00:11:21Oh, it's blocked.
00:11:22Blocked by Bailey.
00:11:23Got him with the leg.
00:11:24Swann is staggered.
00:11:25Look at this.
00:11:27Oh, went for the handspring there.
00:11:29Now the handspring.
00:11:30Cutter!
00:11:32This could be it.
00:11:33To win the championship.
00:11:34Kick out by Bailey.
00:11:35A run.
00:11:36Are you kidding me?
00:11:40Oh!
00:11:41Straight kick to the face by Swann.
00:11:47Swann is going up to.
00:11:48Oh, wait.
00:11:49Hold on.
00:11:50What the hell is Francis trying to do?
00:11:52He's trying to hit the down beam.
00:11:54It's bumping.
00:11:55Bang there by Seven.
00:11:56Back inside the ring.
00:11:58Swann thought about a moonsault there.
00:12:02Flying cover.
00:12:04Bailey defends an X-Division title.
00:12:08Here is your winner and still TV X-Division champion, Mike Bailey.
00:12:16Once again, Speedball Mike Bailey took a huge risk defending his title here tonight.
00:12:23One night before Ultimate X.
00:12:25But Bailey will walk into that match as still your X-Division champion.
00:12:30For more on tonight's action, let's check in with our broadcast colleague, Gia Miller.
00:12:40I'm standing by with Knockouts World Champion, Jordan Grace.
00:12:44Jordan, tonight Ash by Elegance has an opportunity to become the new Knockouts World Champion
00:12:50in a match she's crafted herself.
00:12:52A match by Elegance.
00:12:54Gia, I'm all about giving people opportunities.
00:12:57I've been giving anybody from anywhere an opportunity at this Knockouts World title
00:13:02ever since I became champion.
00:13:04And Ash is very lucky in that she gets not one, but two opportunities.
00:13:10And I don't know what a match by Elegance is.
00:13:12Truthfully, I didn't even care enough to ask because I know that the outcome is going to be the exact same.
00:13:19I'm going to continue to prove that nothing can stop the juggernauts.
00:13:23I'm going to continue to build my legacy here in TNA.
00:13:26And I'm going to walk out, again, still the Knockouts World Champion.
00:13:56The System.
00:14:03The only captain in the system for one fall.
00:14:06Here to speak first, being accompanied by Alicia and Andy Edwards.
00:14:10Representing The System, he is the most professional wrestler.
00:14:15Brian Myers.
00:14:18Meanwhile, tomorrow night in Louisville, Kentucky, live on TNA+.
00:14:23The System will be busy.
00:14:29It'll be an 8-man tag team matchup where Andy Edwards, Moose, Brian Myers and JDC
00:14:37face Matt and Jeff Hardy, Joe Hendry and Mike Santana.
00:14:42An absolutely stacked 8-man tag team matchup.
00:14:47The System have a chance to gain some momentum right here tonight ahead of Emergence.
00:14:53Edwards facing Santana later on tonight.
00:15:18I believe in Joe Hendry.
00:15:22I believe in Joe Hendry.
00:15:27Joe Hendry continues to build momentum every single week, both here in TNA and in NXT.
00:15:34One thing that Santana, the Hardys and Hendry have in common, they all want to take out The System.
00:15:41Now this past Tuesday night on NXT, Joe Hendry appeared once again performing a live concert
00:15:46much to the chagrin of the NXT champion, Ethan Page, whom Hendry will challenge this Sunday at NXT No Mercy.
00:15:54Page and Hendry were joined by Ava, the general manager of NXT, who named Trick Williamson
00:15:59as a special guest referee for their matchup.
00:16:02Page was furious. Hendry in the standing ovation.
00:16:05Joe Hendry is rolling into this weekend.
00:16:16Reef on me! Reef on me! Reef on me! Reef on me!
00:16:23Reef on me! Reef on me! Reef on me!
00:16:36Say his name and he appears.
00:16:42Ryan Myers.
00:16:47This is the part where I would usually come out here and make fun of Ryan Myers.
00:16:55But I heard a rumor that there are some people out there that respect Ryan Myers.
00:17:03So in the interest of fairness, if you respect Ryan Myers, definitely do not chant Edge's bitch.
00:17:17Edge's bitch! Edge's bitch!
00:17:29Of course, that's right. Nobody respects Ryan Myers.
00:17:37Because when people want to show respect, they chant, we believe.
00:17:45Reef on me! Reef on me! Reef on me!
00:17:52And what they believe in is 252 pounds of pure motivation.
00:17:57The answer to all life's problems.
00:18:00They believe in Joe Hendry!
00:18:11You know what I believe? I believe Brian Myers had enough respect to not slide in and punch Joe Hendry in the mouth for all that rambling he was doing.
00:18:21Joe Hendry harkening back to the rivalry that we saw between these two at the back end of 2022.
00:18:28Oh, and a kick right to the midsection. The bell is rung. This match is underway between Myers and Hendry.
00:18:34Hendry dethroned Myers for the TNA Digital Media Championship back in 2022 and became the longest reigning TNA Digital Media Champion of all time.
00:18:45His record of 247 days still stands.
00:18:50After Brian Myers laid the groundwork with the TNA Digital Media title, I might add.
00:18:55That's where the terminology of Edge is, you know what.
00:18:58You would love to be Edge's you know what.
00:19:01What? Oh!
00:19:07And Hendry avoiding Myers.
00:19:12Continuing to show a lack of respect for anyone in the system.
00:19:16But there's no denying the strength of Joe Hendry here.
00:19:21Raw power!
00:19:24And a Scotsman!
00:19:27There's the cover. Hendry trying to put away Myers and a kick out.
00:19:33Hendry! Hendry! Hendry!
00:19:38Nobody here in Florida having any patience here for Brian Myers.
00:19:43One of the most accomplished wrestlers in TNA, I might add.
00:19:48So to say nobody respects Brian Myers is absolute heresy.
00:19:52I mean, if it's a rumor, you know.
00:19:55Oh, big right hand there. Down goes Edwards. Edwards trying to get involved in this.
00:20:00Oh, there's Alicia. That's right, baby. Ride or die.
00:20:04You take your hands off her. Don't you dare.
00:20:11Oh, come on, Spencer!
00:20:15And Daniel Spencer, a referee, has ejected Eddie and Alicia Edwards from ringside.
00:20:22She literally just looked in Joe Hendry's direction.
00:20:27She's going to slap Hendry.
00:20:30And Hendry sent into the steel steps.
00:20:33Myers versus Hendry will continue here on TNA Impact.
00:20:49Joe Hendry in a bind right now against Brian Myers.
00:20:52Eddie and Alicia Edwards have been ejected from ringside
00:20:55as this match continues tomorrow night.
00:20:57Sold out at Emergence Live on TNA+.
00:20:59It'll be Hendry, Santana, and the Hardys up against The System
00:21:03in an eight-man tag in Louisville.
00:21:06Uppercut there by Hendry off of the ropes.
00:21:08Going for the sunset flip. Does he have Myers?
00:21:10Shoulders down. Oh, and a kick out.
00:21:13Oh, and a back elbow. Myers levels Hendry.
00:21:16And in the face, here's the cover and a kick out.
00:21:20Go, go, go, go, go, go!
00:21:24Go, Joe!
00:21:26Slam!
00:21:28Now Myers taking this opportunity.
00:21:30Go, go, go, go, go, go!
00:21:33Letting Hendry know exactly what he thinks of him.
00:21:35Go, go, go, go, go, go!
00:21:38Now look at Hendry bringing Myers in close.
00:21:41More of these uppercuts.
00:21:46Drop toe hold. Elbow right to the back.
00:21:50And look, Joe Hendry has been a sensation.
00:21:52There's no doubt about it. Catching fire all over the world.
00:21:55But you ever wonder if maybe Hendry's pulled a little too thin?
00:21:58Spread a little too thin?
00:21:59I mean, he's causing a ruckus with Gallus and those folks over in NXT.
00:22:04He's trying to fight the entire system here in TNA.
00:22:08He is, let's just say, I don't know how much one man can take,
00:22:12how much one man can do.
00:22:14It's a fair point. Joe Hendry's schedule has been jam-packed as of late.
00:22:18He has caught fire ever since earlier on this year.
00:22:22But he continues to take every single obstacle in stride and continues to win.
00:22:27I mean, if he keeps this pace up, how much time is he going to have to buy billboards, Tom?
00:22:31Poor Joe Hendry.
00:22:34Kick right to the face!
00:22:37And now Myers thinks it's over.
00:22:39Cover! Hendry is still in it!
00:22:44Very, very close for Hendry.

00:25:56Oh, look out!
00:25:59Mike Santana's in the building tonight!
00:26:13Mike Santana providing a distraction to help out Joe Hendry.
00:26:19And now security is trying to clear out Brian Myers.
00:26:23We're scheduled for Edwards vs. Santana, but it's gonna happen now!
00:26:29There's the bell! Santana vs. Edwards is underway!
00:26:38And this one, starting out hot.
00:26:41Santana wasting no time here, taking it to Edwards.
00:26:50Santana, who two weeks ago went 1-on-1 with Moose,
00:26:53that was after the system laid him out backstage.
00:26:57Allegedly. Allegedly, Tom.
00:27:01Oh, and a thumb to the eye there by Edwards.
00:27:03It took literally every member of the system and JDC
00:27:07to thwart the efforts of Santana in that match against Moose,
00:27:11and ultimately, Santana's injuries that he sustained in that beatdown
00:27:15were too much, and the face of the franchise got the win.
00:27:20The result is the result.
00:27:23Moose stood tall, and now Eddie Edwards has a chance
00:27:27to follow suit here.
00:27:31First time ever these two have gone 1-on-1,
00:27:34but once upon a time, LAX and the Wolves
00:27:37very familiar with each other.
00:27:393, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
00:27:49Remember, it was the system who screwed Santana
00:27:52out of competing for the TNA world title at Slammiversary.
00:27:56Santana has not forgotten.
00:27:59He had a hit out on the system ever since.
00:28:04And he's here collecting on that with Eddie Edwards.
00:28:08And that had not been for the number of injuries he had sustained
00:28:11at the hands of the system.
00:28:13Santana looked like he could have beaten the former TNA world champion
00:28:18Moose that night two weeks ago.
00:28:20But hey, could have, should have, but didn't!
00:28:24But man, that's a good start to take it out, Eddie Edwards.
00:28:31Oh, there's Alicia Edwards, no longer banned from ringside.
00:28:35That's a ride or die for you.
00:28:39Now Santana focusing on Eddie Edwards' opposite side of the ring
00:28:43despite the distraction of Alicia.
00:28:46Edwards able to get out of the way just in time.
00:28:49Look at this, Eddie putting his own wife in the path of Santana.
00:28:53She was moving there anyway.
00:28:54She would do anything to protect her man, to protect her husband.
00:28:58What a coward Eddie Edwards is.
00:29:00Strategist.
00:29:02Oh, don't you get the wrong idea, Santana.
00:29:05Alicia continues to involve herself in these matches.
00:29:08Eddie Edwards uses the distraction and drives Santana into the apron.
00:29:13Can Mike Santana get back in it against Eddie Edwards to the system?
00:29:17This match continues, picture in picture.
00:29:24And this one has gotten nasty.
00:29:27We just saw Eddie Edwards give a variation of the blue thunder bomb
00:29:31right into the spine of the apron here.
00:29:34And the official would deal with Eddie Edwards,
00:29:36didn't see Alicia just kick Santana.
00:29:39Santana had a fast and furious beginning to this matchup.
00:29:44But Eddie Edwards, using strategy to his advantage,
00:29:49has made this one very much in favor of the system.
00:29:54Alicia raking the back of Santana again.
00:29:58The official was dealing with Eddie Edwards,
00:30:00didn't see the illegal contact.
00:30:10This is just how you start that system reboot.
00:30:13We've been talking about, Thomas.
00:30:16Santana a little sent to the corner by Edwards.
00:30:19This is a taste of what the system is going to bring.
00:30:23Tomorrow night at Emergence,
00:30:24pressing the shoulders down and a kick out.
00:30:27Another cover and a kick out.
00:30:29Edwards out of frustration.
00:30:31A third cover and Santana stays in it.
00:30:36Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Moose, and JDC will face Mike Santana.
00:30:40Oh my God, look at the back of Santana.
00:30:42After the attack there by Alicia Edwards,
00:30:45digging her fingernails into the back of Santana.
00:30:48Marked her target.
00:30:51Santana will team up with Hendry and the Hardys
00:30:54to face the system tomorrow night at Emergence.
00:30:59Eddie Edwards, though, in a mood here tonight.
00:31:02A little faster than usual, if you ask me.
00:31:06Really sending a message home to Mike Santana.
00:31:09Was ejected from ringside from Myers versus Hendry
00:31:12and they had to watch as Hendry pinned Brian Myers,
00:31:15his tag team partner.
00:31:17The system, I think, despite them talking about a system reboot
00:31:21after Slammiversary,
00:31:22everybody except Alicia Edwards lost that night in Montreal,
00:31:26sold out at the Vernon Auditorium at Slammiversary.
00:31:29I think Eddie Edwards and company are still pretty salty, Ray Warren.
00:31:32Hell yeah, they're salty.
00:31:34And they're going to make sure everybody who needs to
00:31:37pays for that.
00:31:38And it's starting right here tonight.
00:31:42Alicia grabbing Santana by the hair!
00:31:45And he's distracting the official again!
00:31:49Ray Warren, Santana's tag team partner tonight.
00:31:52Excuse me, tomorrow night,
00:31:53Joe Hendry wouldn't have put his hands on Alicia Edwards.
00:31:57Maybe this wouldn't have happened.
00:31:58I was going to say, Alicia Edwards won't get involved in that.
00:32:01She's got her own match tomorrow night at Immersion,
00:32:03teaming up with Ronda Slavich and Aspyn Elegance
00:32:07to face the Knockouts World Champion Jordan Grace and Spitfire.
00:32:13That's right, the first lady of the system,
00:32:16Alicia Edwards is busy doing what she can to keep the system on top,
00:32:20just like Eddie Edwards is doing it in this match.
00:32:24And we are back here on DNA Impact.
00:32:26Every member of the system doing their best to thwart the efforts
00:32:30of the team that they will face tomorrow night at Immersion
00:32:33in Louisville, Kentucky, live on DNA Plus.
00:32:36Slapjack there by Santana.
00:32:39It'll be Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Moose, and JDC
00:32:42against Mike Santana, Joe Hendry,
00:32:45who defeated Brian Myers earlier on tonight,
00:32:48and the Hardys.
00:32:50Hardys.
00:32:51That 8-man tag team matchup goes down tomorrow night at Immersion.
00:32:58Huge 8-man tag.
00:33:00This match could be pivotal in gaining a bit of an advantage,
00:33:03especially if they can do enough punishment
00:33:06and flicked it up on their opponent here tonight.
00:33:08We already know Mike Santana suffered injuries in recent weeks.
00:33:13Ow!
00:33:14Eddie Edwards looking to exacerbate that.
00:33:16Got to jump by the system, that's how those injuries work.
00:33:19Look at that.
00:33:20Now Santana out of the corner.
00:33:22Shots right to the chest of Eddie Edwards.
00:33:25Edwards responds in kind, though.
00:33:31Out of the corner, Santana trying to quicken the pace.
00:33:34Oh!
00:33:35Towing the boot right on the chin.
00:33:37That's a nasty one for Eddie Edwards, but look out, great recovery.
00:33:40Follows through, going for the rolling.
00:33:42Boxed that kick!
00:33:45Cover!
00:33:47Oh, and Edwards able to kick out.
00:33:50So to come tonight, the TNA Knockouts World Championship
00:33:53will be on the line.
00:33:54Jordan Grace defends against Ash by elegance
00:33:57in a Falls Count Anywhere style of match.
00:34:00It's a match by elegance.
00:34:02Plus, Eric Young goes one-on-one with Hammerstone,
00:34:05and you, Mr. Raywall, will conduct the final face-off
00:34:09before Immersion between the TNA World Champion Nick Nemeth
00:34:13and his challenger, Josh Alexander.
00:34:16That's still to come.
00:34:17That's right, Ben.
00:34:19A grueling, hour-long Ironman match tomorrow night.
00:34:23Uh-oh.
00:34:24Ooh!
00:34:25Outline and shock!
00:34:26Oh, I see!
00:34:28Santana got that one, and the low single-leg dropkick
00:34:31sends Edwards out of the ring.
00:34:35Gets a moment to breathe here,
00:34:37but I don't think Santana is going to let him.
00:34:40Santana on the top and wipes out Eddie Edwards!
00:34:44Santana! Santana! Santana!
00:34:49Santana absolutely fired up,
00:34:51and let's take a look at why Santana goes flying through the air
00:34:56to take out Eddie Edwards on the outside.
00:35:01And now Santana's going up top.
00:35:04Santana's got Edwards down.
00:35:06Frog splash! Cover!
00:35:09Oh, and Edwards got the left shoulder up in time.
00:35:12Going to take more than that,
00:35:14put down a former TNA World Champion.
00:35:18Eddie Edwards has had a lot of backup from his wife,
00:35:21Alicia Edwards, throughout this matchup
00:35:23on the outside of the ring.
00:35:24Tomorrow night at Immersion,
00:35:25it'll be Alicia Edwards and Masha Slavich,
00:35:28the Knockouts World Tag Team Champions,
00:35:30teaming up with X-File
00:35:31against the face of the Knockouts World Champion,
00:35:34Gordon Graves and Spitfire
00:35:36in a six Knockouts Tag Team matchup.
00:35:38That is, you could see a new Knockouts World Champion tonight.
00:35:43Call for spin the block,
00:35:44call for the STB and a back elbow!
00:35:53Santana, once again, going for the Rolling Buck 50.
00:35:56Thunderbomb! Cover!
00:35:59Santana able to kick out!
00:36:02Incredible counter from Eddie Edwards there.
00:36:05I don't know how Santana kicked out of that.
00:36:08Second time Santana has suffered that in this matchup.
00:36:12Before the break,
00:36:13he suffered that same move into the apron,
00:36:16the hardest part of the ring.
00:36:20But now Edwards has Santana exactly where he wants him.
00:36:24He's got him on the defense and he's weak.
00:36:28Can he put him away here?
00:36:31Now Eddie Edwards trying to set up for the Tiger Driver.
00:36:34Santana able to get out of it.
00:36:36Shoulders down, great counter,
00:36:38and a kick out by Edwards.
00:36:42Move it right to the face.
00:36:44On the pop-off and down goes Santana.
00:36:48And now Edwards draws Santana close.
00:36:51Can he get him here?
00:36:52There's the Tiger Bomb!
00:36:54Covered! Santana able to kick out!
00:37:00And Eddie Edwards discards the elbow pad.
00:37:02Bone-on-bone contact!
00:37:05Is Santana out cold?
00:37:07No! Santana stays in it.
00:37:11Just by the skin of his teeth.
00:37:13His teeth had almost got knocked out of his mouth
00:37:16by Eddie Edwards.
00:37:31But now Edwards has the opening here
00:37:35to hit the final shot
00:37:38to put Santana down for good.
00:37:41Oh, disgusting!
00:37:46Knee right to the chest.
00:37:50Edwards making Santana pay for his defiance.
00:37:54And now pulling down the knee pad.
00:37:56Once again, thinking about bone-on-bone contact.
00:37:59This time wants to end it with a Boston Knee Party.
00:38:06Could be lights out for Mike Santana here.
00:38:10Santana's saying, bring it!
00:38:12All over the Boston Knee Party!
00:38:14Santana had an answer!
00:38:16Boot to the face!
00:38:17Oh!
00:38:18And he's been the block!
00:38:20That's the end of the fight.
00:38:22He's been the block!
00:38:24Edwards had an answer again, though.
00:38:30Oh, Santana's been the block!
00:38:32The NTP!
00:38:35Santana topples Edwards!
00:38:39Here's your winner, Mike Santana!
00:38:44A rough result.
00:38:46A rough pair of results for the system,
00:38:48back-to-back, ahead of emergence.
00:38:51Will it be a system failure tomorrow night,
00:38:54ahead of emergence?
00:38:56Santana, Hendrick, and the Hardys,
00:38:59the JDC and the system,
00:39:02tomorrow night, live in Louisville,
00:39:04ahead of emergence.
00:39:07Hi.
00:39:08This is Always Ready Matt Cardona,
00:39:10or should I say, Almost Ready Matt Cardona.
00:39:14I have an injury update for all you great fans.
00:39:17Unfortunately, I am still not medically cleared to compete.
00:39:20I was training too hard for you in the gym.
00:39:22I think I tweaked something in my pec.
00:39:24So unfortunately, I will not be able to compete at emergence.
00:39:27And I'm so sorry to let you guys down.
00:39:29I prom-
00:39:30What are you trying to poke, you dumbass?
00:39:32What kind of monkey business are you up to?
00:39:34Listen, I tried my best.
00:39:35It was your doctors who wouldn't clear me.
00:39:37It's your fault.
00:39:38It's your doctor's fault.
00:39:39But listen, I have this great idea.
00:39:40You love surprises, right?
00:39:42So I found this monster, this mystery monster,
00:39:45to take on PCO at emergence.
00:39:47It's gonna be amazing, bro.
00:39:49But think about it.
00:39:50You gave me your word.
00:39:51It was supposed to be you.
00:39:53Listen.
00:39:54Listen.
00:39:55I'm almost better, I promise.
00:39:57I'm 700%.
00:39:5880%.
00:39:59Few more weeks.
00:40:00You won't get away with this, you dumbass!
00:40:03It's all tied up.
00:40:06Speaking of mystery,
00:40:07Jordan Grace is walking into the unknown.
00:40:09A match by elegance for the Knockouts World Championship.
00:40:12Also still to come,
00:40:13the DNA World Champion, Nick Nemeth,
00:40:16and his challenger, Josh Alexander.
00:40:18Their final face-off before emergence.
00:40:20But coming up next,
00:40:21it's Eric Young vs. Hammerstone on Impact.
00:40:30The table has been set for emergence
00:40:32tomorrow night live on TNA Plus in Louisville, Kentucky.
00:40:36And with that, we are joined on commentary
00:40:39by Steve Macklin, who we know tomorrow night
00:40:42at emergence in Louisville, Kentucky,
00:40:44we'll be going one-on-one with Eric Young.
00:40:52Steve, in a very short amount of time,
00:40:54this situation between you and Eric Young
00:40:56has gotten very personal.
00:40:57Why?
00:40:59Well, EY and I haven't touched yet,
00:41:01and it's an old dog,
00:41:03and you got the new dog in the yard right here.
00:41:04Trying to take him down,
00:41:05I've been trying to tell him,
00:41:06get out of my way.
00:41:07That's what I'm going to do.
00:41:08To your point, you two have never gone one-on-one before,
00:41:11never so much as even touched within a matchup,
00:41:14but still, you've gone after his character,
00:41:17you've called him an afterthought.
00:41:19Yeah, why wouldn't he be?
00:41:20He's been here 20 years,
00:41:21it's time to move aside.
00:41:30The following contest is set for one-fall.
00:41:32Introducing first, from Phoenix, Arizona,
00:41:35Hammerstone.
00:41:37And tomorrow night at the sold-out emergence event
00:41:40live on TNA+,
00:41:41Hammerstone will become one of the largest men ever
00:41:44to compete in ultimate accessing challenges
00:41:48for the X-Division Championship.
00:41:49But tonight, it's about unfinished business
00:41:52with Eric Young.
00:41:54It was on the countdown to Slammiversary,
00:41:56an impromptu matchup between the returning Hammerstone
00:41:58and Young went down.
00:42:00Young got the win that night,
00:42:01and then afterwards on Impact,
00:42:04Hammerstone scored a submission victory
00:42:06against Young in a mixed tag team match
00:42:08with the Torture Rack.
00:42:32His opponent, from Franklin, Tennessee,
00:42:34the world-class maniac,
00:42:37Dylan Young!
00:42:39Wow, Macklin, you talked about Eric Young,
00:42:42someone who's been here since the beginning.
00:42:44We call him a TNA original for a reason.
00:42:47And really quick, I want to say thank you
00:42:48for bringing some actual testosterone to this table.
00:42:51You know who I sit out here with the whole time.
00:42:53Appreciate a man being here.
00:42:54But this, right here,
00:42:56is the man you're talking about, that original.
00:42:59That's a flag that somebody like you, I imagine,
00:43:01feels like they could carry into the future.
00:43:03Yeah, people want to call him the hero of TNA,
00:43:05and he's been here so long in the heart and soul.
00:43:07You've said that before yourself,
00:43:08and he's the heartbeat.
00:43:10But it's time to move aside.
00:43:12I've been the heartbeat here for the past three years.
00:43:21Well, the two of you recently have cited
00:43:24your desires to run in the TNA World Championship.
00:43:27Obviously, Eric Young was screwed out of that opportunity
00:43:30in his home country of Canada
00:43:31and sacrificed by Frankie Kazarian
00:43:33when he challenged Moose for the championship months ago.
00:43:36You were in the main event of Slammiversary.
00:43:39I understand your gripe
00:43:40of wanting to get back to the championship.
00:43:42However, you were ferenced
00:43:43to have the first person eliminated that night.
00:43:45This feels like something very different
00:43:47between you and EY.
00:43:49Meanwhile, EY's got to deal with Hammerstone first.
00:43:51I know you're familiar with Hammerstone.
00:43:53Yeah, Hammer...
00:43:54Look at him.
00:43:55He's a specimen on his own.
00:43:56He's a freak.
00:43:58We've had our run-in on the independents,
00:44:00and hopefully one day we can get in the ring as well.
00:44:02But right now, my sights are set on EY.
00:44:04Let's not forget, back at Slammiversary,
00:44:07Steve Macklin was in it.
00:44:09He was fighting for the World Championship.
00:44:11Eric Young did not make it to that match.
00:44:13Let's not forget it.
00:44:14So Macklin is already steps ahead of EY in my book.
00:44:17And let's not forget, too,
00:44:18I had complete control of every competitor in that match.
00:44:21And I already admitted to it that I was...
00:44:23I got eliminated. I got caught.
00:44:25And I'm not afraid to admit that.
00:44:30You're only as good as your next match,
00:44:32is what we've always been taught.
00:44:33Isn't that right?
00:44:34Yeah.
00:44:35Hammerstone trying to control Young,
00:44:37the two-time TNA World Champion.
00:44:40And this is what Young is capable of,
00:44:42even with a much larger competitor,
00:44:44stronger competitor.
00:44:46This is how EY can be so difficult to deal with in the ring.
00:44:49So I'll ask you, Steve,
00:44:50how do you take out a two-time TNA World Champion
00:44:53tomorrow night at Emergence?
00:44:54Easy.
00:44:55You don't think about the two-time TNA World Champion.
00:44:57It's just Eric Young at that moment.
00:45:00That's a good point.
00:45:01Just another man.
00:45:03Shoulder right in the midsection there by Hammerstone.
00:45:06And a big elbow.
00:45:11You talk about a two-time TNA World Champion.
00:45:13Nobody can take that away from him.
00:45:14Now, it's over the course of 20 years.
00:45:16Oh!
00:45:17Look out.
00:45:18Hooks to the leg.
00:45:19And Hammerstone able to kick out.
00:45:20You know, dude, just over a year ago,
00:45:21you were our World Champion here in TNA.
00:45:25Yeah.
00:45:26And you don't forget that either, do you?
00:45:29Oh, no one's forgotten about that, Steve.
00:45:30It just seems like altogether.
00:45:32Oh!
00:45:33A boot right to the face by Hammerstone.
00:45:36It felt like in the wake of Slammiversary,
00:45:38you were ticked off about the way the fans responded to you
00:45:41that night in Montreal.
00:45:43Some have argued you have some misplaced anger
00:45:45that you're taking out on Eric Young.
00:45:49And Young sent right into Macklin.
00:45:54Take care of this.
00:45:59Oh!
00:46:01Face first into the steel stairs.
00:46:03Chaos literally spilling out here into our table,
00:46:06into our guest here, Steve Macklin.
00:46:11Typically, he's just being rude.
00:46:14Hey, at least you're on home turf now.
00:46:17Good old Tampa, Florida.
00:46:24Well, if he gets caught in the crosshairs,
00:46:25then he gets it with a KIA.
00:46:27I am willing to take that shot.
00:46:29But I think he needs to pass this match here
00:46:31to Hammerstone.
00:46:32Hammerstone, you can see, is making this personal,
00:46:34getting right in the ear of Eric Young.
00:46:37Shot right in the lower back.
00:46:39And we'll see how much of EY there is tomorrow night
00:46:41at Emergence.
00:46:52Hammerstone, once again, keeping Young close,
00:46:55inflicting as much punishment as he can.
00:47:01And we talk about it all the time.
00:47:03Eric Young, he is a thick, muscly man, too.
00:47:06But Hammerstone here has just been having his way
00:47:10with Eric Young here, throwing him around
00:47:13almost like it's nothing.
00:47:15And in the roof one more time,
00:47:16went for that shot to the lower back,
00:47:18and Young, a little retaliation.
00:47:22Hammerstone stopped right in his tracks.
00:47:24And Young able to throw Hammerstone.
00:47:28Huge burst of adrenaline here
00:47:30coming from EY, able to turn this match on its head.
00:47:35They got some excitement.
00:47:39Up onto the shoulders.
00:47:40Look at the strength of EY.
00:47:42Look out!
00:47:43There it is!
00:47:44Death Valley Driver!
00:47:46Cover!
00:47:48And a kick out!
00:47:52Take another look.
00:47:53How close was this?
00:47:55The Death Valley Driver from Eric Young.
00:48:00And now Young trying to set up for the Piledriver.
00:48:03Hammerstone resists.
00:48:08Face first right to the knee of Hammerstone.
00:48:12Look out!
00:48:13Power slam!
00:48:14There's the cover.
00:48:16And a kick out by Eric Young.
00:48:19Can you imagine the power of Hammerstone
00:48:22unleashed tomorrow night at the sold-out
00:48:24Emergence event live on TNA+.
00:48:26Competing in Ultimate X for the X-Fission title.
00:48:31And now look at Hammerstone.
00:48:32He's calling for the Torture Rack one more time.
00:48:34He managed to get Young to submit to this weeks ago
00:48:37in a mixed tag team matchup.
00:48:40Young able to withstand it.
00:48:42Sherman Suplex!
00:48:44And the onslaught continues from Hammerstone.
00:48:48Sit-out powerbomb!
00:48:50Cover!
00:48:52And Young is not going to go quietly.
00:48:56Take a look at this flurry from Hammerstone.
00:48:59The offense back-to-back here.
00:49:02Just rumbling Eric Young.
00:49:04But EY stays in the matchup.
00:49:16Hammerstone getting right in the face of our official Daniel Spencer.
00:49:20I mean, Steve Macklin, you're getting a great look at
00:49:22what's effective against Eric Young.
00:49:24You're going to go one-on-one with him.
00:49:26You're getting a great idea of what works
00:49:28with the two-time former TNA World Champion here.
00:49:32Hammerstone sends Young across the ring.
00:49:34There goes EY.
00:49:36To the outside.
00:49:38Oh! And a big right hand by Young!
00:49:40Hammerstone is down!
00:49:42Young trying to close himself on the outside of the ring.
00:49:44You saw EY learn from past mistakes there.
00:49:46Hammerstone went for that kick before.
00:49:49This time EY saw it coming and holed up here.
00:50:05Eric Young over here getting in the face of Steve Macklin over here.
00:50:09Young off the top.
00:50:10Hammerstone went after EY.
00:50:12Huge boot right to the face!
00:50:16Hammerstone trying to set up Young.
00:50:21Can he get it?
00:50:22Nightmare pendulum!
00:50:24Cover!
00:50:26Hammerstone has beaten Eric Young!
00:50:34You don't think you directly led to that lock for Young Macklin.
00:50:38He's the one that acknowledged me.
00:50:40I was just sitting here talking to you two.
00:50:42Eric Young took his eye off the ball,
00:50:44but Steve Macklin has his eyes squarely on Eric Young.
00:50:50All eyes are on this one.
00:50:52It's a match by Elegance for the Knockouts World Championship.
00:50:55Jordan Grace defends against Asked by Elegance.
00:50:57Meanwhile, the TNA World Champion Nick Nemeth and his challenger Josh Alexander
00:51:01have their final faceoff before emergence.
00:51:04But up next, tag team action on TNA Impact.
00:51:15The people have spoken.
00:51:1924 hours before the sold-out emergence event, Impact continues.
00:51:24The following is the tag team match.
00:51:27Introducing team number one, first from Fort Bruce, Ontario, Canada, Cody Diener.
00:51:34Cody Diener believes he's got the people behind him,
00:51:37and he's got some backup from within his own family.
00:51:42His partner, he is Jake Something.
00:51:46His cousin, Jake Something, the 265-pound powerhouse.
00:51:51Jake Something and Cody Diener ready for tag action.
00:51:55Jake Something, always looking like a man on a mission.
00:52:02A little bit of extra vitriol in there tonight.
00:52:04You can almost feel it off of Jake Something.
00:52:08Jake Something did compete in one of the many triple threat matches
00:52:11for qualifying for Ultimate X and came up short.
00:52:17People of Tampa, Florida, how we doing tonight?
00:52:24Oh, that's what I like to hear.
00:52:27Because tonight, Tampa, you people have a choice.
00:52:35This is not about the people.
00:52:42This is about you and I proving ourselves in this tag division.
00:52:48So, ABC, come on out here and let's get it started.
00:52:55How simple and to the point. It ain't about the people.
00:52:58It's about proving something to the tag team champs.
00:53:01ABC. ABC.
00:53:07They are the team, a world tag team champion.
00:53:11The ultimate finesse, the respect.
00:53:13Inevitably, Austin, the A-B-C.
00:53:19There's a lot of teams eyeing ABC.
00:53:22The system do have a contractual rematch following Slantiversary.
00:53:26First class has been very outspoken.
00:53:29Jake Something and Cody Diener have mixed it up with the A-B-C.
00:53:33In the past, a lot of teams circling the Eastern Bay Connection.
00:53:38The minute you climb to that mountain top,
00:53:41you know there's a target on your back.
00:53:44And A-B-C know that better than anybody.
00:53:49Jake Something is a foul.
00:53:51I was going to say it.
00:53:52Diener and Something know that as well.
00:53:54But Jake Something in particular is fired up here.
00:53:57He's a man with something to prove.
00:53:59Don't forget, still to come tonight,
00:54:01my broadcast colleague, Matthew Rehwald,
00:54:03will attempt to moderate the final face-off
00:54:06before emergence between the TNA world champion
00:54:08and seven-day calendar, Josh Alexander,
00:54:11before their one-hour Iron Man match
00:54:14for the TNA world title tomorrow night at Emergence.
00:54:17The final face-off is still to come,
00:54:19plus a match by Elegance.
00:54:22Jordan Grace defending the Knockouts World Championship
00:54:24against Ash by Elegance
00:54:26in a Falls Count Anywhere style of bout.
00:54:29Ace Austin trying to withstand the early barrage
00:54:34here by Jake Something.
00:54:35Shoulders down.
00:54:36Something is singing about offense here
00:54:39with a big monster with a buckle bomb.
00:54:42Jake Something has the uncanny ability
00:54:44to find a powerbomb out of almost anywhere.
00:54:48He can pick you up and toss you across the ring
00:54:51in a moment's notice.
00:54:52Here comes Cody Diener.
00:54:54Last time we saw him in action went one-on-one
00:54:56with the TNA, former TNA world champion,
00:54:59Steve Macklin, who goes one-on-one
00:55:01with Eric Young tomorrow night.
00:55:04There's a cover.
00:55:05Oh, and a kickout by Ace Austin.
00:55:07And as history has told us time and time again,
00:55:10I mean, more than anything almost,
00:55:12more than any other situation,
00:55:13if you can get a win, a non-title win
00:55:15over the standing champions,
00:55:17that puts you in prime contendership
00:55:20for a tag team title shot.
00:55:22The system are going to have their hands full,
00:55:24so talk about their contractual rematch.
00:55:26Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Moose, and JDC
00:55:28tomorrow night live in Louisville at Emergence
00:55:31face Henry, Santana, and the Hardys.
00:55:34Got to deal with a variety of enemies
00:55:37that the system have built up.
00:55:38Tag made.
00:55:42Diener off the slam by Jake Something
00:55:45and a kickout by Ace Austin.
00:55:47Teamwork there.
00:55:49Yeah, I'm honestly surprised
00:55:51because it's kind of hot and cold
00:55:54with Cody Diener and Jake Something.
00:55:55Sometimes they're on the same page.
00:55:57Sometimes they're completely different folks.
00:55:59Well, Diener all over the place.
00:56:01People have spoken ridiculousness
00:56:04letting these people choose anything
00:56:07you do in your life.
00:56:08He believes in the people's choice.
00:56:09It's ridiculous.
00:56:11Ace Austin rolls through.
00:56:12Tag made.
00:56:13In comes Chris Payne.
00:56:15That is not Jake Something.
00:56:16And look, this is what happens.
00:56:18This is the kind of thing that happens
00:56:19when you listen to the people, Cody Diener.
00:56:21Chris Bay runs wild on you.
00:56:24Chris Bay, who also, like Jake Something,
00:56:27competed in one of the Ultimate X qualifying match-ups.
00:56:32It took the combination of John Skyler
00:56:36and Riley Osborne of NXT
00:56:38to make sure that Bay didn't win that match-up.
00:56:41Riley Osborne ultimately won it.
00:56:43He'll compete in Ultimate X tomorrow night
00:56:45for the X Division Championship.
00:56:48Jake Something in to make the save here
00:56:51for Cody Diener.
00:56:52The official trying to get Jake Something out of the race.
00:56:55Not the legal man for his team.
00:56:57And Bay, a big kick to Jake Something.
00:56:59Cody Diener rushes at Bay.
00:57:04Save there.
00:57:05Something.
00:57:06Oh!
00:57:07Great save by Jake Something.
00:57:09Big forearm smash.
00:57:10And now Ace Austin in here.
00:57:12Good luck to the official
00:57:13getting control of this tag team match-up.
00:57:15Really breaking down here, absolutely.
00:57:17Austin and Jake Something.
00:57:19Not the legal man at this point.
00:57:22Bay trying to protect Austin.
00:57:27Oh!
00:57:29Miscommunication there by the ABC
00:57:31and Jake Something takes control.
00:57:33Jake Something's got to get out of the ring.
00:57:35More than a miscue.
00:57:36I think it was Jake Something redirecting
00:57:38the tag champs into each other
00:57:40and now redirecting Cody Diener
00:57:42into the tag champs.
00:57:44Crossbody!
00:57:45And down go the ABC.
00:57:50Now Jake Something
00:57:53trying to...
00:57:54Whoa!
00:57:55Mark orders to Cody Diener
00:57:57to no avail here.
00:57:59Austin sent to the outside.
00:58:01Oh, and Jake Something
00:58:03takes the inevitable one out of the equation.
00:58:06And the two legal men are back inside the ring.
00:58:08It's Bay and Diener,
00:58:09but Jake Something is relentless tonight.
00:58:12He's got a man on a mission here.
00:58:18Oh!
00:58:19Not going down easily.
00:58:21Oh, and Ace Austin takes out the footing
00:58:23of Jake Something.
00:58:25Oh!
00:58:26Driving Something into the apron!
00:58:31Now Bay calling out for Ace Austin.
00:58:33A tag's been made.
00:58:34Ace Austin is legal.
00:58:35Not sure if Diener's aware of the tag.
00:58:37Oh!
00:58:38Double kick!
00:58:39He's about to be, though.
00:58:40Because here it comes, Tom.
00:58:44There's the one!
00:58:45The art of finesse!
00:58:46And here's the two!
00:58:47The fold!
00:58:49The one-two swing!
00:58:51The ABCs take care of Diener and Something.
00:59:00Now Diener and Something
00:59:02were looking for something to prove
00:59:04but not to be here tonight.
00:59:06The tag team standing tall.
00:59:11The three-time TNA World Champion.

00:59:17who lost and is bent for the exhibition title
00:59:20against Mike Bailey earlier on tonight
00:59:22and AJ Francis.
00:59:24You talked about First Class having their eyes on gold,
00:59:27including the tag team title.
00:59:30Hey, if at first you don't succeed,
00:59:33you try, try again.

00:59:41Jake Something looking on
00:59:43as First Class tries to demolish
00:59:46the ABC!
00:59:48The down payment!
00:59:52Now Jake Something, he could have gotten involved there
00:59:55but choosing not to.
00:59:57Something thinking about himself there
00:59:59and First Class thinking about nothing but gold.
01:00:11First Class have sent a message
01:00:14to the tag team champions.
01:00:24Well, speaking of champions,
01:00:26there are the Knockouts World Tag Team Champions

01:01:03stepped foot in an NXT ring for the first time
01:01:05and showed out, bringing the fight
01:01:07to Kalani Jordan, but ultimately
01:01:09the NXT North American Champion
01:01:11came out with the victory after the fact.
01:01:13Wendy Chu put Jordan to sleep

01:03:03This will be Falls Count Anywhere.
01:03:05It looks like something out of Barbie Land
01:03:08from the sick and twisted mind of Ashby Elegance,
01:03:12all to capture the Knockouts World Championship
01:03:16from the unstoppable champion, Jordan Grace.
01:03:21It was weeks ago here on Impact,
01:03:23Jordan Grace held yet another open challenge
01:03:26for her TNA Knockouts World Championship.
01:03:28It was answered by Rosemary.
01:03:30It was a heck of a contest.
01:03:32However, it was interrupted by these two,
01:03:36Ashby Elegance, and Masha Slavich.
01:03:39And now, we're going to take a look
01:03:41It was answered by Rosemary.
01:03:43It was a heck of a contest.
01:03:44However, it was interrupted by these two,
01:03:48Ashby Elegance, and the personal concierge,
01:03:51Ashby Elegance, upped the violence that night,
01:03:55bringing a pink kendo stick
01:03:57and attacking both Jordan Grace and Rosemary.
01:04:04Right now, let's take a look at the tale of the take
01:04:06for a match by Elegance
01:04:07for the Knockouts World Championship.
01:04:09These two clashed at Slammiversary last month
01:04:12at the sold-out event in Montreal.
01:04:14Jordan Grace was able to retain her championship,
01:04:17but Ashby Elegance, remember,
01:04:19she has been fixated on capturing
01:04:21the Knockouts World Championship
01:04:23since her debut in this company in January.
01:04:35And the juggernaut is ready for battle.
01:04:3813 successful title defenses
01:04:42in 229 days
01:04:45as the Knockouts World Champion,
01:04:47one of the most dominant Knockouts World Champions
01:04:51of all time in the history of DNA Wrestling.
01:04:56This match will have no disqualifications.
01:04:59It will be balls count anywhere.
01:05:02Can Jordan Grace withstand the brainchild
01:05:06of Ashby Elegance?
01:05:08The Knockouts World Title is on the line
01:05:11in a match by Elegance.
01:05:13It begins next.

01:19:50Home Aglow
01:19:51With that in mind, I am being joined right now by both champion and challenger, the walking
01:19:56weapon Josh Alexander will challenge the TNA world champion Nick Nemeth in a 60-minute
01:20:01Ironman match for this title.
01:20:04And gentlemen, thankfully for all of us involved, I want to remind everyone there is a no contact
01:20:09clause in place.
01:20:10If any physicality breaks down here, this match is off.
01:20:16So with that, tensions are obviously very high.
01:20:18I mean, this really came to a head a couple weeks back in Tampa.
01:20:22You guys wrestled an incredible match, went all the way to our time limit of 30 minutes.
01:20:28Fans in the arena, Josh, I'm going to start with you.
01:20:29They wanted five more minutes.
01:20:31You, however, decided to low blow the champion Nick Nemeth and not go that extra five minutes
01:20:38for reasons that many people are saying are because you couldn't continue in that matchup.
01:20:44I couldn't continue.
01:20:46No, no, this, this comes down to what it is.
01:20:49Okay.
01:20:50Everybody's on my time from now on.
01:20:53You're on my time from now on.
01:20:55I have done things the way that TNA wanted.
01:20:57I've been the heart and soul of this company for long enough.
01:21:00And now it's time for me to look out for me.
01:21:03And I'm going to take that championship and I'm going to do it on my terms.
01:21:07Nick Nemeth, Josh brings up a great point.
01:21:11He was the flag bearer for this company for a long time, champion for a long time, our
01:21:15longest reigning champion ever, the face of TNA.
01:21:19Now, Nick, we know you're an incredible wrestler.
01:21:21You proved it in that match back in Tampa.
01:21:23You've proved it your entire career.
01:21:26This is a different kind of role.
01:21:27You are now the flag bearer for this company, carrying that banner with a whole new set
01:21:32of pressures.
01:21:33So quite frankly, can you handle that pressure?
01:21:38First and foremost, I'm happy.
01:21:42I'm enjoyed.
01:21:43I'm overjoyed.
01:21:45I waited a long, long time to have a world title in my hands, especially a TNA world
01:21:51title, something that I looked up to wrestlers my whole life, someone that I respected.
01:21:57So many that came before me and I went, damn, to be that champion one day, to have all that
01:22:04responsibility, to have it on your back.
01:22:06And I was like, Josh, he's a great wrestler, man.
01:22:08He was the flag bearer for the company.
01:22:10And I respected that.
01:22:14I was lucky enough to win the TNA world title.
01:22:19Any other night, it could have been someone else, but it was me.
01:22:21And I don't plan on losing it.
01:22:23And I plan on fighting for it and proving how good I am every single week.
01:22:26I've done that my whole life.
01:22:28I'm not going to change now.
01:22:29I'm a fighting champion.
01:22:32And that really, that's the part I don't understand.
01:22:35Josh, you're an awesome wrestler, man.
01:22:38One of the greatest in the world.
01:22:41I wonder why so many people know my name and don't know yours.
01:22:47Is that because you were the flag bearer of TNA?
01:22:49Do we remember that?
01:22:51Or were you just good at wrestling?
01:22:54I dreamed about this, like I'm sure you did too.
01:22:58And I said, I'm a fighting champion.
01:23:00Towards the end of that pay-per-view match, where we're beating the hell out of each other,
01:23:04I go, man, one day, it's going to be the two of us.
01:23:06I've been dying to get into the ring with you because I love wrestling.
01:23:08I study it.
01:23:09I live it.
01:23:10You could have came to me, stared me straight in the face.
01:23:14Don't worry about my family.
01:23:15Don't worry about who you think is hot right now or who you think is riding your coattails.
01:23:19You could have came right to the champ's face, like you would have in the old days, which is fine.
01:23:24Hey, you got some tactics that you're going to use?
01:23:26I completely understand.
01:23:27I've been there.
01:23:28I used them.
01:23:29You want to be the champ?
01:23:30You want to be the best?
01:23:31You go face to face.
01:23:32I don't know how that was with you.
01:23:33I assumed it was.
01:23:35You want a shot at me?
01:23:36You stand there and look me in the eye and say, fight me and prove how damn good you are.
01:23:40And I would have said, damn it, let's go right now.
01:23:43And TNA probably would have said, hang on, this is a big deal.
01:23:47This is a former champ who never lost.
01:23:49You never lost it.
01:23:49So that would drive me insane.
01:23:51That would make me want to go, how do I have to prove myself to everyone else again and take that back?
01:23:58Cheap shots?
01:24:01Attacking my family?
01:24:02Get the hell out of here.
01:24:03You want to be the best?
01:24:05Look me in the eye and say, fight me and beat me.
01:24:09Because you know what?
01:24:11I don't think you got it anymore.
01:24:12You got to go to a different way?
01:24:13That's totally fine.
01:24:14You don't have it.
01:24:15I see it in your eyes right now.
01:24:16You're thinking of every way to backtrack and weasel your way in.
01:24:18I've been there before.
01:24:20I'm not there now.
01:24:22I'm the champ.
01:24:23Look me in the eye.
01:24:24Try and take it off me because you're not going to.
01:24:26Well, Nick, you bring up a good point.
01:24:27This is the title you never lost, Josh, last year.
01:24:30You've made it your goal.
01:24:31You've made it very clear since coming back from your triceps injury that this has been
01:24:35your goal, but it hasn't happened.
01:24:38So to be blunt, what's gone wrong?
01:24:42What's gone wrong?
01:24:44You're inferring that something's gone wrong with me.
01:24:46No, no.
01:24:47Nothing's wrong with me, Matt.
01:24:49You see, what's wrong is the fans, management, everybody here.
01:24:54Everything else is wrong but me.
01:24:56I'm the same Josh Alexander.
01:24:57I'm the best wrestler in the world.
01:25:01People walk around this locker room and they refer to me as champ.
01:25:03I don't even have that.
01:25:05And you're not champ until you beat me.
01:25:08Everybody here knows it, whether they want to admit it or not.
01:25:12You say you respected what I did when I was champion, and then you say that nobody knows
01:25:16my name.
01:25:17Well, if you look in the history books, there was one you say you respect so much of these
01:25:21heroes that you looked up to.
01:25:23Hey, I'll name them for you.
01:25:25Angle, Sting, Joe, even AJ.
01:25:28I am above them all.
01:25:30The longest reigning champion in this company's history.
01:25:34That forever belongs to me, okay?
01:25:39There is nothing wrong with me.
01:25:41What's wrong is with people like you.
01:25:43You come in here and what?
01:25:45They roll out the welcome mat.
01:25:47Management's guilty of this too.
01:25:48They see a shiny new toy like Nick Nemeth, and all of a sudden, what?
01:25:51You're here three months, and you main event a pay-per-view, and you get your shot at that.
01:25:56And you came up short.
01:25:59Don't even get me started on that meme, Joe Hendry, because this is all about you, okay?
01:26:04We're doing this on my time, and we're doing this in my match.
01:26:08I say I'm the best wrestler in the world, and I'm going to back it up, so I'm looking
01:26:11you in the eyes right now, and I'm saying, fight me, Nick, because tomorrow this happens,
01:26:16and tomorrow I take that right back where it belongs, around my waist.
01:26:24TNA, well, they'll be better off for it.
01:26:29It's clear to see what Josh Alexander is willing to do for this championship.
01:26:32Quite frankly, I'm going to keep it simple, Nick.
01:26:35What are you willing to do?
01:26:37See, that's the difference, before I answer that question.
01:26:40That's the difference.
01:26:42You're the same old Josh Alexander.
01:26:44Get with the times.
01:26:45The business changes.
01:26:47Wrestlers evolve.
01:26:48You become better every single day.
01:26:52That is what it takes to be a champion.
01:26:54That's what I'm willing to do to be champion.
01:26:56Not to go back and say, check the history books.
01:26:59Look back what I did in the past.
01:27:00Who the hell cares?
01:27:02What have you done for me lately?
01:27:03That's what this business is every day, 365 times a year.
01:27:07What have you done for me lately, for this business, for this title, for the right to
01:27:11hold that damn title?
01:27:13Longest reigning champion, he never lost it.
01:27:15That is fantastic.
01:27:16You know what that is?
01:27:17That is a page in a history book.
01:27:19When it comes to 2024 and being the best in the world, you don't get to talk about
01:27:23what you used to do.
01:27:25What have you done lately?
01:27:27And lately?
01:27:28Cheap shots.
01:27:29Fine.
01:27:30If it helps you win, great.
01:27:31You'll never be a true champion, and you'll never take that from me.
01:27:35Because I can do everything you just said, but I actually back it up.
01:27:39And I think, what would Kurt Angle do?
01:27:41He'd choke somebody out, and you would look him in the eye and do it.
01:27:44And now you say you look me in the eye now.
01:27:46Great.
01:27:47Great.
01:27:48But a few months later, you're going to look me in the eye because we're about to fight
01:27:50on your terms in an Ironman match.
01:27:53I can go all night long.
01:27:55Well, we'll see.
01:27:56We'll see.
01:27:57We'll have to find out.
01:27:58I can, and I will.
01:27:59I've proven it before.
01:28:00You sure have.
01:28:01Time and time again.
01:28:02This is my match.
01:28:03I've done it before, Nick.
01:28:04I don't think you have what it takes.
01:28:05I appreciate that, and I love that this is your match.
01:28:07This is your match.
01:28:08Guys, there's this one match that I'm really good at.
01:28:11There's this one.
01:28:12I'm good at any match, Nick.
01:28:13It doesn't matter.
01:28:14It doesn't matter.
01:28:15Any time, any place.
01:28:16I hate to say that, but now we're here finally, weeks and months later, looking me in the
01:28:20eye.
01:28:21It's too late.
01:28:22There's no more looking back.
01:28:23It's you and me, face to face.
01:28:25This title.
01:28:26Yeah.
01:28:27Hold it.
01:28:28Hold it for now.
01:28:29This title.
01:28:30Hold it for now.
01:28:31I'll hold it forever.
01:28:32While you can.
01:28:33While you can.
01:28:34While you can.
01:28:35Because guess what?
01:28:36You want to know what I've done for you lately?
01:28:37Lately is tomorrow when I take that championship, and I take TNA to new heights on the face
01:28:40of this company, on the heart and soul.
01:28:43I earned that with blood, sweat, and tears.
01:28:45I've spilled more blood in that ring than you ever will, and you want to question what
01:28:50I've done and what I'm going to do?
01:28:52You're in for the hardest match of your life, because I am the best wrestler in the world,
01:28:56and it's all about evolving and getting better.
01:28:59You cannot get better.
01:29:00I am the f***ing standard.
01:29:03Understand me?
01:29:04I want to believe you, but I'm staring you right in the eyes, and I know that you don't
01:29:07have it anymore, and that's sad, because you did used to be one of the best ever.
01:29:13You used to be one of the greatest.
01:29:15You used to be TNA world champion, and now it's me, and it stays right f***ing here forever.
01:29:26I'm not getting injured.
01:29:27I'm not walking away.
01:29:28I'm not losing a match I should have won.
01:29:30I'm not second guessing myself.
01:29:32I'm just staying the champion.
01:29:33I will stay in this champion.
01:29:35You know why?
01:29:36Because I will fight to the death for it.
01:29:38Not eventually.
01:29:39Not once in a while.
01:29:40I'm not talking about history books and saying, now this is my match.
01:29:43Now it counts.
01:29:44Every f***ing night counts.
01:29:47That is why I'm the champ, and you are not.
