iMPACT: Walking to Unbreakable

Greetings and salutations! It’s Thursday of WrestleMania week and that means that we have TNA iMPACT tonight. This episode of iMPACT is a bit different as it’s not only live, but it’s also serving as the official countdown show to their TNA+ Special, Unbreakable. With that said, let’s get straight to the action.

Jason Hotch vs. Laredo

Laredo hit a driver, and then followed that up with a beauty looing Twisting Senton, but it was only good enough for a 2-count. Laredo climbs to the top rope and is looking for a Moonsault but Hotch moves out of the way and hits a Neckbreaker for a 2-count of his own. Laredo hits a Michinoku Driver from the top rope for yet another 2-count. Laredo sets up and goes for a crossbody, but Hotch reverses it and hits Laredo with a Backbreaker. Hotch goes to the top rope and Laredo meets him up there and hits a Spanish Fly for the win.

Winner: Laredo Kid

Gia Miller is backstage with Leon Slater. Slater says that he HAS to beat Brian Myers later on the show and he is reminded of the last time they squared off because The System intervened. Slater says that’s not going to happen again because he’s a completely different animal now. He says that once he’s done with Myers, his entire focus will be on becoming the youngest X-Division Champion in TNA history.

Cody Deaner walks up to Santino Marella and Deaner brings up how his contract is up on May 5th. Marella says the board is all about wins and losses and he’s not won too many matches. Marella sets up a match with KC Navarro in an Ultimate X qualifying match and if he wins that then he has a good case for an extension….

Jazmyn Nyx vs. Xia Brookside

Nyx hits a knee and only gets a 2-count. Nyx continues with her momentum as she hits a Fisherman Suplex for another 2-count. Nyx with a bulldog onto the middle turnbuckle and then locks in a Sleeper hold. Xia fights out of it, and the two women knock each other down with kicks to their heads. Xia is up and hits hard elbows, followed by a Clothesline and a Headscissors. Xia goes for Broken Wings but Nyx counters it into a pin. Xia hits a Jawbreaker, followed by a crossbody off the second rope for yet another 2-count. Xia FINALLY hits the Broken Wings, but Jacy Jayne is out and gets up on the apron. Rosemary is out though and mists Jayne. Back in the ring, Nyx looks for a Suplex, but Xia turns that into an inside cradle for the win.

Winner: Xia Brookeside

KC Navarro vs. Cody Deaner

Navarro fins himself in the corner, and after Deaner appeases the crowd a bit, he goes and delivers the 10 punches on the corner turnbuckle. Navarro comes right back and hits a Snap followed by a running Double Stomp for a 2-count. Deaner hits a Clothesline on Navarro and followed that up with a Bulldog. Deaner sets up Navarro and delivers a Helicopter spin followed by a TKO for yet another close 2-count. Navarro is over this match and the ref is distracted, so he hits Deaner with his Chain and picks up the win. What does this mean for Deaner’s contract?!?!?

Winner: KC Navarro

KC Navarro is backstage and he says Deaner is a lifetime loser. He says he’s in the Ultimate X match and after he wins it, the X Division becomes the Bless Division.
