Pre⁢ Show

Gia Miller welcomes the expert pre-show panel: Tommy Dreamer, Dave LaGreca and Ash by Elegance.

It’s the biggest ⁣weekend ⁢in TNA history!

Let’s ‍start with⁢ clips of what happened ⁤after Impact went ⁢off the air last Thursday.⁢ Nic Nemeth ⁢tried to cash-in his trophy, but Mike Santana cut him‍ off. Santino Marella made Mike Santana v. Frankie Kazarian in a Texas Death Match. Daria Rae then adds an extra stipulation: that Nic Nemeth will be special referee. This all would have been really great to see ‌on the‍ actual TV show ‌Thursday, but whatever.

It will be real Texas Death Match rules: get a pinfall, then the ⁢opponent has a ten count to get back to their feet.

After some pre-show​ panter and ⁣predictions, as well⁢ as ‍video​ packages to⁤ hype the Tag Team championship and Knockouts Championship matches, we get a match.

Stacks (w/ Arianna Grace) v. BDE v. JD Orso v.Eric Young for ‍the‌ TNA International Title

JD orso ‍is ⁢the former Fuego‌ Del​ Sol. But I guess ⁤I’ll never find out⁣ who Fuego Dos was. BDE is a YouTuber. this match is allegedly punishment by Marella to put Stacks “in check.” But it’s basically Stacks⁤ v. Three job guys.

Young and BDE brawl on‍ the floor, ⁣while Orso and Stacks work ⁤in the ring. Orso was pretty ⁢fantastic flying around‌ the ring until Stacks gave him a Snake Eyes in the corner. BDE dropped⁤ Young with a short and‍ then vlogged about it. Starks then leveled BDE on the floor,⁣ and Grace grabbed BDE’s phone to ‌shoot some content , as the kids say. Orso and ​BDE get on the same page and get the ⁤phone back from Grace.

back in the ring, Orso and BDE pair up against Young and Stacks. ‌Young and stacks cut them off with clotheslines. stacks⁣ dumped Orso. BDE held⁣ his own against Young and Stacks,‌ taking Young out with‍ a Code Reader and Stacks with a⁣ dropkick. BDE caught a cutter from Orso.‌ Orso caught ‌Young with a ⁤Sliced Bread and ⁢Starks with a double-stomp⁣ to​ the back of the head.

Orso caught BDE with the “Orso Driver,” some kind of inverted ​Tiger Driver, for a near fall. BDE caught Stacks ⁤with a springboard cutter, but⁤ Young ⁤took BDE ‌out with a neckbreaker.​ Young gave Orso a piledriver,⁢ and then it was every finish to a multi-man match‍ ever: Starks dumped Young and then pinned the guy Starks took out. At least Orso looked really‍ good before doing the job.

Match Result: Starks⁤ pinned Orso to retain after a ⁢piledriver from Young (6:23)

, ‍Daria Rae talked down to Santino in the back.

, ⁢The panel ⁢talked about JDC’s retirement match, and⁤ it’s kind of making me feel back for Ash, who was forced to‌ retire a few⁣ months ago.

, Earlier‍ tonight, Tessa Blanchard’s crew were treating people badly in the​ back, and Indi‍ Hartwell stood up to⁢ them after they attack Vicious Viki Venuto, ⁣an “extra” looking ⁤for “chance” in the back. Which will lead to a tag match in the pre-show.

, ‍ The Concierge brought out the Elegance ​Brand, dressed like sheriffs, to watch ‌the next match from seats at‍ ringside.Literally right next to ⁢the ring.

Ali ⁤went for a standing moonsault, but​ Elijah got his feet up and kicked Ali back, ‍who‍ landed ⁣so awkwardly on his ⁣neck William Regal should tweet about ⁣it.

Elijah hit a knee for a‍ near fall. ali​ caught⁣ Elijah,hoisted him up on his shoulders and dropped ⁤him with a Death Valley Driver for ‍a⁢ near fall.

JDC gave Edwards the⁢ back suplex on the apron,which is a decidedly unfriendly move ⁤in what had so⁢ far been mostly ‍a babyface match. ‍edwards responded by sending JDC into the post. Edwards went for a chop while JDC was against the post, but JDC ducked and Edwards found nothing but post. ​JDC tried to go after Edwards arm.

Hendry Steals‌ Victory in Triple Threat, ⁤Santana and Kazarian to battle ‌in Texas Death‍ Match

A chaotic​ triple threat match ⁢saw Chris ⁢Hendry⁢ secure a surprising​ pinfall victory​ over Alex Alexander and Moose. The finish came after‍ Alexander had seemingly taken Moose out of the equation, only for Hendry to capitalize by grabbing Alexander and hitting‌ his Standing Ovation finisher for the win.

The match unfolded ⁤with a flurry of action. Moose prevented Hendry from ⁢submitting,then stunned Alexander with a punch. A series of counters and near falls kept the crowd engaged, culminating in a dramatic sequence where both Alexander⁢ and Moose suffered potential finishing blows before Hendry’s⁢ opportunistic pin.

Earlier⁢ in the night, Santino⁢ Marella brought out a panel of wrestling “experts” to predict‌ the⁣ main event.The​ segment was ⁣interrupted⁢ by Daria Rae, who​ urged a quicker‍ transition to the video package ⁣highlighting the championship match.

Santana and Kazarian Set for Brutal Texas Death Match

Tonight’s main event will pit Mike Santana against ​Frankie Kazarian for the TNA World championship in ⁣a Texas Death Match,with⁤ Nic Nemeth serving as the special ‍referee‍ and proudly displaying his trophy.

The unique ruleset adds a layer ‍of​ intensity:

• No disqualifications are‌ permitted.
• following⁢ a ⁣pinfall or submission, the referee initiates a ten-count.
• The downed ⁤wrestler must return to their⁤ feet before the count reaches ten.
• Failure to do ⁢so results in a loss.

Santana’s entrance was⁤ energetic, ‌though he didn’t receive the same level ‌of crowd reaction as the Hardy’s. The​ match itself ‍began immediately with Kazarian attempting to avoid a direct⁣ confrontation, quickly retreating to the floor. Upon re-entering the ring,he was met with a kick from Santana,initiating a back-and-forth exchange ⁢that saw both competitors utilize the ring and apron. Kazarian‌ even resorted to‍ using a chair, prompting chants for tables from the audience. Santana responded with a flying lariat off the ring stairs and then brought a table into⁣ play.
