Greetings and salutations! TNA Thursday Night iMPACT kicked off from Philadelphia with some big matches and segments announced for the show as we are on the road to TNA Lockdown, including the return of Lethal Lockdown and several matches being added to the upcoming event happening in a few weeks. Here is the full card for the show:

  • Nic Nemeth (c) vs. Jeff Hardy – TNA World Championship
  • We’ll hear from Moose
  • Ricky Sosa vs. Brian Myers
  • Mustafa Ali, Agent Zero & John Skyler vs. Rich Swann, BDE & TBA
  • Indi Hartwell vs. M By Elegance – Knockouts TV Title Tournament Semifinal
  • Eddie Edwards vs. KC Navarro

With all that and more, let’s get straight to the action.

Ricky Sosa vs. Brian Myers

Ricky Sosa opened the night against The System’s Brian Myers, who was accompanied by Bear Bronson. Myers struggled to gain control early, but Bronson kept at it and created distractions at ringside to give his partner an advantage. Sosa eventually fought his way back into the match, only for Bronson to interfere once again and allow Myers to connect with a DDT for a near fall.

Cedric Alexander then made his presence felt, but Sosa managed to take him out. With another distraction from Bronson, Myers attempted to use the X-Division Championship as a weapon, but before he could, Leon Slater appeared and grabbed the title. The distraction gave Sosa the chance to hit the Head Shot and get that W.

Winner: Ricky Sosa

After the match, Leon Slater addressed Cedric Alexander. Slater accused Alexander of being scared and jealous after turning down his previous challenge. Slater once again challenged Alexander to a match at Lockdown, saying he was willing to give whatever it takes to get the rematch. Alexander eventually appeared and accepted, but with a major stipulation. If Alexander wins, Slater’s record-setting X-Division Championship reign will be erased from history. I just don’t get this, but Slater accepted.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviewed BDE and Rich Swann ahead of their six-man tag team match later in the night. The duo confirmed they would have a mystery partner and teased that their partner had been waiting for the right opportunity to get revenge on Mustafa Ali.

An AJ Francis vignette aired from one of his many studios around the country. During the segment, Elijah’s music played, and Francis saw Elijah appear in the control booth. Elijah challenged Francis to a Steel Cage Match at Lockdown. The lights suddenly went out, and it was revealed that Francis had apparently been imagining Elijah’s appearance. The match was officially made for Lockdown and it will be AJ Francis vs. Elijah in a Steel Cage Match at Lockdown

The Face of the Franchise Speech

Moose made his way to the ring wearing a Frankie Kazarian’s scarf and sunglasses and called the segment “The Face of the Franchise Speech.” Moose declared that his guests were every single person in the Philadelphia crowd. He also claimed that every major wrestling promotion around the world had offered him contracts, but he turned them down because he wanted to remain with TNA.

Kazarian soon interrupted and insulted Wawa, prompting the Philadelphia crowd to loudly chant the convenience store’s name. Things got heated and they went at it, with Moose and Kazarian brawling before security separated them. The two men are already scheduled to meet at Lockdown in an Escape the Cage Match.

Order 4 vs. BDE, Rich Swann & Trey Miguel

Mustafa Ali and Order 4 battled BDE, Rich Swann and the returning Trey Miguel in six-man tag team action up next on TNA iMPACT. The babyfaces controlled the early portion of the match, forcing Order 4 to regroup at ringside before the show went to a commercial break. We then built toward a hot tag to Trey Miguel. Special Agent Zero briefly took control against BDE, Swann, and Miguel, but Miguel fought back and connected with a sliding DDT on the floor. Miguel eventually hit the Lightning Spiral to get the win for his team.

Winners: Trey Miguel, BDE & Rich Swann

Order 4 attacked Trey Miguel after the match, with Mustafa Ali directing Zero to continue the assault. Jason Hotch then rushed to the ring and made the save. Hotch and Ali was made official for the International Championship at Lockdown.

Backstage, Knockouts World Champion Xia Brookside complained about her makeup, with the camera eventually panning and revealing that Elayna Black had apparently been responsible for doing it. Brookside was furious, and things got heated and quickly turned into a fight between the two Knockouts. The brawl spilled toward ringside before Brookside eventually escaped through the crowd.

M by Elegance vs. Indi Hartwell – Knockouts Television Championship Tournament

M by Elegance faced Indi Hartwell in the Knockouts Television Championship Tournament. M controlled much of the match and managed to constantly cut off Hartwell whenever she started to build momentum. Hartwell eventually mounted a comeback and connected with a Spinebuster for a near fall.

The match was thrown into chaos when Xia Brookside and Elayna Black began brawling around ringside. The fight eventually spilled through the crowd, distracting Hartwell. M took advantage and connected with a Moonsault to advance to the tournament final.

Winner: M by Elegance

A video package focused on Harley Hudson’s journey to TNA, including her victory in Gut Check in 2023 and everything she has accomplished since arriving in the company. Hudson made it clear that her TNA career could be at stake and declared that she needs to defeat Alisha Edwards next week.

Moose was found unconscious backstage. We don’t know what had happened to the former TNA World Champion, leaving questions about who attacked him. So we have ourselves a classic “whodunnit”.

Eddie Edwards vs. KC Navarro

Navarro attacked Edwards right away and overwhelmed him with offense. KC nearly scored the victory after hitting a splash from the top rope. The match changed when Alisha Edwards became involved. She grabbed Navarro from the outside, allowing Eddie to throw KC into the ring post and regain control. Alisha later tossed her shoe into the ring, while Eddie attempted to use a kendo stick. Navarro managed to stop him and fought back, eventually hitting Blessing in Disguise for the win.

Winner: KC Navarro

After the match Navarro was attacked by The System as they tried to injure him. Ricky Sosa, Fabian Aichner and Jada Stone rushed to the ring to make the save. Santino Marella then appeared and made things official: Lethal Lockdown is returning for the first time in 10 years at TNA Lockdown. The match will see KC Navarro, Fabian Aichner, Ricky Sosa and Jada Stone team together against Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson and Alisha Edwards.

Allie is still looking for Rosemary and came across a message written on a mirror that simply read: “The struggle is real.”

Nic Nemeth vs. Jeff Hardy – TNA World Championship

The main event of the evening saw Nic Nemeth defend the TNA World Championship against Jeff Hardy. Nemeth controlled the early parts of the match as Hardy was forced to be the underdog through the match. Hardy eventually shifted the momentum, launching himself from the apron and connecting with a huge clothesline on Nemeth at ringside.

Nemeth regained control and once again kept Hardy on the defensive. The commentary team pointed out that Nemeth had never defeated Jeff Hardy during his career. Hardy eventually caught Nemeth by surprise with a sit-out powerbomb, scoring a 2.9 pin. He followed with a Twist of Fate, but Nemeth countered with a Superkick.

Nemeth attempted to finish the match with the Danger Zone, but Hardy countered with a Cutter before climbing to the top rope and hitting a Swanton Bomb. However, Nemeth got his knees up at the last possible moment. Hardy attempted another Twist of Fate, but Nemeth countered and connected with the Danger Zone to finally defeat Hardy and retain his championship.

Winner: Nic Nemeth — Retains the TNA World Championship

And that was TNA iMPACT for this week!
