Mike Santana, Mustafa Ali, and The System vs. Eric Young, Frankie Kazarian, KC Navarro, Elijah, and Leon Slater – Champions Challenge Main Event

Brian Myers and Elijah kicked things off, with Elijah walking the ropes and connecting with an Old School on Myers’ arm early in the match. Chaos erupted throughout the bout as all ten men exchanged control. Elijah planted Mustafa Ali with a sit-out powerbomb, but the pinfall was broken up. Ali later attempted a suicide dive, only for Elijah to catch him with a chokeslam on the apron.

Leon Slater brought the crowd to its feet when he launched himself over the ring post onto the pile of wrestlers at ringside. Late in the match, Mike Santana and Mustafa Ali got heated as the two argued in the ring. KC Navarro took advantage, blasting both men with a missile dropkick before focusing on Ali. Navarro eventually connected with Sliced Bread on Ali and scored the pinfall victory to earn a future TNA International Championship match. It was a fun way to start TNA iMPACT!.

Winners: Eric Young, Frankie Kazarian, KC Navarro, Elijah, and Leon Slater

Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo and Arianna Grace addressed Stacks’ upcoming match against Santino Marella in a backstage promo. Grace complained about being left out of the Knockouts Champions Challenge and accused her father of making “emotionally based decisions.” Stacks promised to handle business in the ring and teach Marella a lesson for what he called his “terrible decisions.” He also vowed to send Marella to a retirement home. Grace closed the segment by saying her father should not expect any visits from her once he retires.

Matt Hardy says The Righteous wanted the Broken Hardys, and now they are here. We cut to The Righteous. The Righteous introduced viewers to the “Wicked Garden.” The duo warned Matt and Jeff Hardy that they would not leave the Wicked Garden the same way they entered it. Oh the drama!

Harley Hudson vs. Tessa Blanchard

Tessa Blanchard targeted Harley Hudson’s injured knee from the get-go. Blanchard repeatedly attacking the leg both inside and outside the ring. Hudson fought back with a pair of shoulder tackles, followed by a Fallaway Slam, and a shoulder breaker for a near fall. Blanchard regained control by chop blocking Hudson’s injured knee. Blanchard followed up with Buzzsaw to get the “dub”.

Winner: Tessa Blanchard

The Personal Concierge went up to TNA Knockouts World Champion Lei Ying Lee backstage and warned her not to ruin the Knockouts Champions Challenge main event later tonight. Lee quickly got in his face and intimidated him. The concierge backed off before she went back to just working out.

Santino Marella vs. Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo

Stacks repeatedly tried to avoid Santino Marella early in the match, regrouping with Arianna Grace at ringside. Marella gained momentum with arm drags and strikes, but the turning point came when Grace pulled the Cobra sock off Marella’s hand as he prepared to use the Cobra. The distraction allowed Stacks to roll up Marella and steal the win.

Winner: Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo

After the match, Arianna Grace continued berating her father, Santino Marella, and even tried to take a shot at him. Marella stopped her, but Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo blindsided him with a cheap shot from behind. That brought out Indi Hartwell, who rushed to the ring and challenged Grace and Stacks to a mixed tag team match against herself and Marella.

Daria Rae interrupted before the match could begin and scolded Hartwell for trying to make matches on her own. While she confirmed the bout would not happen tonight, Rae later changed her mind and officially announced the mixed tag team match for next week’s episode of TNA iMPACT!

AJ Francis is seen threatening an unidentified person with consequences if he doesn’t have the required paperwork in his mailbox tomorrow.

Eddie Edwards vs. Fabian Aichner

As soon as the bell rang, both men locked up to start the match. Aichner quickly took control, hitting a springboard crossbody and sending Edwards to the outside with a clothesline. Aichner followed up by whipping Edwards into the ring steps and landing another heavy clothesline on the floor. Back inside the ring, Edwards came back and shifted momentum by driving Aichner down chest-first.

Edwards was at the ropes, but Aichner cut him off, pulling him down and planting him with a cutter. Alisha Edwards distracted the referee at ringside, allowing Edwards to use the ropes to wear Aichner down. Alisha then grabbed a kendo stick and tried to interfere, but the referee caught her and immediately ejected her from ringside.

The rest of The System made their way toward the ring. However, Aichner fought back with a crossbody off the top to the outside, then followed up with a DDT to Edwards inside the ring. He connected with Sliced Bread and locked in a submission hold. Bear Bronson, Brian Myers, and Cedric Alexander stormed the ring and attacked Aichner. The ref had no choice but to call for a DQ.

Winner: Fabian Aichner via disqualification

After the match, The System continued the assault on Aichner. Cedric Alexander hits a Lumbar Check.

Xia Brookside, Elayna Black, & Mara Sade vs. Lei Ying Lee, Heather by Elegance, & M by Elegance – Knockouts Champions Challenge

It’s time for the Main Event! Lei Ying Lee and Sadè started the match for their teams, trading control early after the opening bell. The action quickly broke down as M By Elegance tagged herself in, only to be dropped by Sadè with a Sling Blade. Heather By Elegance attempted to turn things around by joining M for a double-team move, but Sadè forced a tag to Black to shift momentum.

Black immediately fired up with a shotgun dropkick to Heather and a stomp to the back. Brookside entered next and took control briefly, connecting with a dropkick before sending Heather into the corner with a face-first impact and a series of stomps. M regained control moments later, hitting a Coast-to-Coast dropkick on Brookside in the corner.

Things got intense as Sadè wiped out both M and Heather on the floor with a diving crossbody, Lee followed up with a suicide dive of her own to take out Black and Brookside on the opposite side of the ring. M and Heather isolated Sadè with strikes and double-team moves. M locked in a shoulder submission, but Sadè fought free and took out both opponents with a springboard crossbody.

Brookside and Lee then tagged in. Lee gained control with a series of strikes, including a kick that stopped some interference from Black. She followed up with corner offense and a Suplex, then hit Warriors Way. The pin was broken up at the last second. Heather and M combined for a codebreaker–German suplex double team on Black, but Sadè came right back with a double DDT to stop things. Lee then hit Sadè with a clothesline as it was PANDEMONIUM 2026!

Mr. Elegance tried to interfere but was caught in an Ankle Lock by former UFC fighter Keith Jardine . The Personal Concierge rushed in and struck Jardine, only to regret things right away and went running. Back inside the ring, Lee set up for Warriors Way, but Brookside avoided the attack and capitalized with an elevated DDT. She quickly covered Lee and secured the “dub”, earning her team a future opportunity at the TNA Knockouts World Championship.

Winners: Xia Brookside, Elayna Black, & Mara Sade
