World Champion Mike Santana seems to have a big target on his back at the moment, with a variety of people wanting the title. This doesn’t even include the recently fired Steve Maclin, who will be here tonight to explain why he has been all angry and aggressive recently. In addition to being fired I’m guessing. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Opening recap.

Mike Santana/Leon Slater vs. Nemeths

Frankie Kazarian is on commentary. Slater and Nic start things off with Slater winning a battle over wrist control. The handspring elbow puts Nic down again and the Nemeths go outside, where Slater hits a slingshot dive as we take a break. We come back with Santana fighting out of Ryan’s chinlock and grabbing the Rolling Buck Fifty.

Slater comes back in with a high crossbody for two on Nic but the Nemeths cut off another Rolling Buck Fifty to put Santana down. Slater avoids Nic’s superkick but walks into the Fameasser for a quick two. Nic takes him up top but gets shoved off, only for Eric Young to come out and distract Slater. That’s enough for Nic to block the Swanton 450 and roll Slater up for the pin at 13:58.

Rating: B-. This certainly felt like a bit match and that’s rather nice to see to open the show, especially with it getting some time. The Young stuff does make sense due to his Feast Or Fired case, though hopefully Nic gets a title shot of his own out of this. That would be the kind of win that could really push Slater up another level and it might be where we’re heading, which is a good sign.

The Righteous don’t get why the Hardys don’t trust them because the four of them should be like brothers.

Dani Luna vs. Lei Ying Lee

Luna takes her down and hammers away but Lee flips over her and starts striking away. That’s cut off as Luna catapults her throat first into the top rope and we hit the neck crank. Lee tries to fight up and gets tossed backwards without much trouble. Some rollups give Lee two each but her guillotine is countered with a suplex. Luna grabs her chain and wraps it around the turnbuckle but Lee is back up to strike away.

A superkick puts Luna down and a t-bone suplex gives Lee two. Lee’s charge into the corner misses though and something like a slingshot Blue Thunder Bomb gives Luna a near fall of her own. They both miss running kicks so Luna kicks her into the corner where the chains are supposed to be (wrong buckle, so Lee doesn’t quite hit the chains). That and the Lunar Landing finish Lee at 10:17.

Rating: B-. Not so great finish aside due to missing the chain, it was nice to see Luna pick up a win like this. She’s the monster charging through the division at the moment and it’s hard to imagine that she doesn’t wind up as champion sooner or later. That’s a good thing too, as she has risen up the ranks and become a player, which should be paid off with some singles gold.

Alisha Edwards talks to Tommy Dreamer and Carlos Silva and declines a new contract. Moose comes in to say he’s going to take care of the System and thinks Edwards should be there with him. She’s in and signs.

AJ Francis vs. Mance Warner

Steph de Lander is here with Francis. They start fast with Warner sending him outside, where Francis is rammed into the steps. Francis is fine enough to slam him off the steps and a running knee in the corner rocks Warner again. Back up and Warner fights back with some elbows to the head but s spear gives Francis two. Francis goes for a chair but de Lander cuts it off, allowing Warner to grab it instead. A shot to the ribs gives Francis the DQ win at 4:26.

Rating: C. I’ve always preferred Warner as a good guy and that was the case again here. Yes he’s still brawling for the most part but that’s always been his style. Throw in some of those Tennessee style southern promos and he should be fine. Not much of a match here, but I’m intrigued by what this version of Warner could do.

Here is Mickie James for a face to face showdown with Ash By Elegance. James calls Ash out and cuts off the Personal Concierge’s entrance, which does bring out Ash. James talks about helping Ash get a job here but Ash says that she was already the hottest free agent and was getting signed anyway. That doesn’t work for James, who calls Ash out for calling out former Knockouts Champions online, “LIKE A MARK!”.

Ash makes it clear that she is NOT a mark because she only cares about being the champion. That brings James to having to leave the title in the ring due to her injuries. She has thought about that every day and Ash isn’t going to disrespect the title by mocking it.

Ash says it’s none of James’ business what happened to her that made her vacate the title because she’s better than James anyway. The fight is on but we cut to the back where the Concierge is with James’ son. James sprints to the back but gets jumped by the Elegance Brand. Ash gives her a MickDT on the stage and James is left laying.

Post break Santino Marella comes in to check on a laid out Jody Threat, who was attacked by the Elegance Brand (seemingly in the same room where James’ son was). Daria Rae comes in to yell at Marella for letting everything fall apart.

Tasha Steelz vs. Jada Stone

Steelz jumps her to start fast and hammers away in the corner but Stone manages a kick to the head. The Great Hands cut off Stone’s dive but Steelz takes them out by mistake. A kick to the head puts Stone back in trouble and a running kick to the face gives Steelz two back inside. They trade some rapid fire rollups for one each until Steelz grabs a German suplex. Stone handstands her way out of a cutter though and a crucifix gives Stone the pin at 5:45.

Rating: C. Stone is another case where TNA feels like they want her to be something and that has to start somewhere. Pinning a former Knockouts Champion is a good start and I’m curious to see where she goes. Stone has talent and hopefully she can turn that into something else.

Post match Steelz lays Stone out.

Tom Hannifan brings out Steve Maclin for a chance to tell his side of the story. The fans tell Maclin that he doesn’t work here and Hannifan tells us that he and Maclin have been friends for a long time. Maclin says that for once, this is about him rather than Mike Santana. The fans say they don’t care as Maclin says that everything changed when he saw the briefcase that said he was fired.

That night, Santana came up to him and said he was sorry. Hannifan, seemingly realizing that the fans are derailing this, asks if that was enough to validate Maclin attacking Santana twice. Maclin brings up Santana not appearing for their tag match after he lost the World Title. Santana said he was “going through something” and that’s really being selfish.

Maclin could come out here and talk about his drinking problem or his PTSD or his survivor’s guilt. The fans get on Maclin again before he says that he got Hannifan his job. Hannifan says that’s true but they should have talked about this over a beer instead of on television.

The reality is that Maclin has been fined by the company over and over for internal actions because he won’t take responsibility for his actions. That’s enough for Maclin to deck Hannifan until security and Santana run in to chase him off. Maclin even shoves down Matthew Rehwoldt as he leaves. This was a good segment that the fans dragged back down, because it’s an interesting story that should set up a heck of a match.

Post break, Gia Miller has taken Hannifan’s place for the main event.

The System vs. Righteous/Hardys

Edwards hammers on Jeff to start but Jeff grabs a reverse full nelson. Everything breaks down and the System is cleared out as we take an early break. We come back with Bronson and Dutch slugging it out until Dutch grabs an exploder suplex. Vincent comes in and gets chokebombed for two, allowing Bronson to take him into the System corner.

Bronson goes up and does the Hardy dance before dropping a middle rope elbow (Miller: “Egad!”) for two. Vincent fights out of trouble and brings Matt in to clean a lot of the house. Everything breaks down and we get the parade of knockdowns, with a bunch of them fighting outside. Edwards loads up the Boston Knee Party but Vincent shoves Matt out of the way and takes the bullet, and the pin, instead at 11:34.

Rating: B-. This was about the moment at the end and that’s perfectly fine. Not every match needs to be some big epic showdown and it worked well enough here, with the Righteous continuing to make the Hardys believe that everything is ok. I’m curious to see where that goes, while on the other hand you have the System, who will have to deal with Moose. Good enough main event here.

Post match Moose comes in to go after the System but they beat him down until Alisha Edwards comes out to protect him, much to Eddie’s dismay, to end the show.

Overall Rating: B-. TNA has found its groove in recent weeks since their not so great debut on AMC and that is great to see. What matters the most is that you can tell what’s going on with just about everyone involved, which is a great way to bring in new viewers. I like what I’m seeing here most of the time and that should be a good sign for their near future. If they can deliver on some of their potential, it will be even better.

Results
Nemeths b. Mike Santana/Leon Slater – Rollup to Slater
Dani Luna b. Lei Ying Lee – Lunar Landing
AJ Francis b. Mance Warner via DQ when Warner used a chair
Jada Stone b. Tasha Steelz – Crucifix
The System b. The Hardys/Righteous – Boston Knee Party to Vincent

Commentators: Tom Hannifan, Matthew Rehwoldt

We’re done with No Surrender, where only so much of note happened but the show itself was pretty good. Now it’s on to…whatever their next big show is, which hopefully has a better main event. The idea right now is a bunch of people could be coming for the World Title so Mike Santana has to have his head on a swivel. We also have a guitar case casket match, which is apparently a thing. Let’s get to it.

Here is No Surrender if you need a recap.

We open with a long No Surrender recap.

Opening sequence.

Indi Hartwell vs. Heather By Elegance

The rest of the Elegance Brand is here too. Hartwell wastes no time in wrestling her down to start and a side slam gets an early two. Heather sends her outside without much trouble and avoids a charge into the corner. The chinlock goes on to keep Hartwell down with Heather switching into a sleeper to make it worse.

Hartwell fights up with a spinebuster and the rest of the Brand gets up for a distraction. The referee is too smart (work with me here) for that though and they’re all tossed (save for Ash, who was on commentary). A top rope elbow to the back gets two on Heather, followed by a Hurts Donut for the pin at 7:15.

Rating: C. I still don’t think I see it with Hartwell, as the fans like her quite a bit but there’s a certain spark missing from her. The size difference was a problem here as well as Heather is downright tiny and Hartwell is one of the taller women in the company. Not a bad match at all though, and Hartwell and Xia Brookside might still be coming for the titles.

Earlier today, Steve Maclin was stopped from getting in the arena by Tom Hannifan. Maclin told him to find a way for him to get in next week, with Hannifan saying he’ll do it.

Hannifan says TNA management hasn’t responded yet.

Here is Mike Santana for a chat. He gets to the point, saying that if Steve Maclin keeps knocking on death’s door, sooner or later, it’s going to answer. With that out of the way, Santana would like Leon Slater to come out here. This brings out Slater, with Santana welcoming him back. Santana was worried about someone cashing in on him at No Surrender but Slater had his back.

In addition, Santana wants to apologize for leaving him on his own, and they shake hands. Slater pinned a former World Champion in Nic Nemeth though, which brings out the Nemeth Brothers, but Santana tells Ryan to shut up with the catchphrase. Nic calls the win luck, but Santana says it was skill. The challenge for the tag match is issued, which brings out Daria Rae. The match isn’t happening right now, but maybe next week. For now, get out of the ring.

The System warns Moose to move on because they dropped him for being dead weight. They have titles to win.

Frankie Kazarian wants to be on commentary for the Nemeths vs. Slater/Santana next week. Works for Daria Rae.

International Title: Stacks vs. Trey Miguel

Stacks, with Arianna Grace, is challenging. Before the match, Grace talks about how great things went at No Surrender, where he won the Knockouts Title. Yes her daddy got her the match and yes she played him like a fiddle. Miguel now has a customized (bright green) title and starts fast by ducking away from a charging Stacks. An arm snap over the top puts Stacks on the floor and we take a break.

We come back with Miguel catching him with a springboard moonsault before rolling a northern lights suplex into a Kimura. With that broken up, Miguel flips over him and stomps Stacks in the back, only for Stacks to pop back up to put him down. Miguel ties him in the corner for a Cheeky Nandos Kick and a 619, only for Grace to slide in the Knockouts Title. The distraction lets Stacks hit a running boot to the back of the head for two but Miguel is right back with the Lightning Spiral to retain at 9:49.

Rating: C+. I can go for Miguel retaining and getting a title defense underneath his belt, as he needs to rebuild his status as a singles star. Beating Stacks again is a good thing to see, if nothing else as it’s nice to see the TNA wrestlers beating the NXT names for a change. Nice enough match here, and it should be fun to see Grace yelling at Stacks again.

Eric Young and his unseen fans are ready to cleanse this place, starting with Leon Slater. Good for him. Now stop talking.

Tessa Blanchard vs. Jody Threat

They go to the mat to start, with Blanchard cranking on the arm early on. That’s broken up and Threat fires off some clotheslines in the corner, only to get knocked down again. Blanchard’s slingshot splash gets two and she grabs an abdominal stretch to hammer on the ribs. Threat fights up and grabs a fireman’s carry, which draws in Victoria Crawford for the DQ at 4:44.

Rating: C. They didn’t have much time here and having Threat get beaten up on her way to the Knockouts Title shot is a bit of a questionable move. At least she didn’t lose here, but this didn’t make her look like much. Hopefully she gets a better win down the line, preferably over Blanchard, as that would make her feel like a much better threat to get the title.

Post match Blanchard and company stay on Threat and her bad ribs until Harley Hudson and Myla Rose come in for the save.

BDE/Rich Swann vs. Sinner And Saint

Swann headscissors Williams to start fast and it’s off to BDE, who gets chopped down in a hurry. Icarus takes BDE into the corner, where he almost fights his way out. Instead he has to flip his way to freedom, allowing the tag to Swann. That means the pace can pick up, with Icarus being knocked outside as BDE comes back in.

The springboard cutter is blocked though and a backsplash into a brainbuster gets two, with Swann making the save. BDE is back up with a springboard cutter, followed by a handspring cutter from Swann for two, with Williams making the save. Swann is knocked outside, leaving BDE to get kicked in the head in the corner. Total Elimination finishes for Icarus at 5:37.

Rating: C+. Sinner And Saint have grown on me a bit, which is probably due to getting them away from being lackeys and making them their own thing. TNA has a history of building some some nice teams and maybe they can do it again here as well. It’s not like there are a ton of great teams around here so why not see what they have here? As usual, BDE is a unique case and he’s not going to be hurt by losing match after match.

Post match respect is shown.

Mance Warner and Steph de Lander swear vengeance on AJ Francis…and then go into his locker room where the fight is on. It’s also quickly broken up.

The Hardys are ready for the System, who come in to interrupt them. The Righteous come in and the System bails. With them gone, the Righteous say they’re still going to try to gain the Hardys’ trust. Shockingly, the Hardys don’t seem convinced.

Here is Elayna Black, who is not happy with Mara Sade for eliminating her from the #1 contenders battle royal. She wants an explanation from Sade, who comes out to the stage to say they both came from the same place. They’re in the same place again, but Black says Sade has been handed everything before. Sade says Black hates her for being a go getter and the challenge is on.

Here’s what’s coming next week, including an interview with Steve Maclin.

Elijah vs. Mustafa Ali

Guitar case casket match and Order 4 is barred from ringside. Ali charges into a boot to the face to start and they head outside, where Ali chairs him in the back. A bunch of chairs are set up on the floor but Elijah is back up with a ukulele shot. They fight to the ramp, where Elijah backdrops him onto the open chairs.

We take a break and come back with Ali putting him on a table at ringside, setting up a 450 from the top. Cue the barred Order 4, with Agent Zero putting Elijah in the casket…where Elijah comes out throwing powder. Elijah fights out and grabs Tasha Steelz for the Highwayman’s Farewell.

Ali grabs the guitar but Elijah is smart enough to turn around so Steelz gets hit in the back with the guitar instead. After Ali realizes that didn’t go well, it’s a Highwayman’s Farewell to put him down but Ali manages a low blow. Ali loads up the casket, which seems to have a door laid over the hole. Another 450 misses though and Elijah guitars him in the head. A chokeslam through the door into the casket gives Elijah the win at 11:56.

Rating: B-. There were some good spots here, but Elijah was reaching near superhero levels as he beat the entire team on his own. I’m still not sure why Ali can’t win anything big, but this does at least seem to be the end of their feud. Now get Ali on to something he can win and Elijah on to…whatever he’s going to do now.

Overall Rating: C+. I do like how things are going on the way to Sacrifice, but it only feels like so much of an event. That was the problem going into No Surrender and that doesn’t make for the best back to back schedule of shows. The show was good enough and Santana and whatever he is doing continue to be interesting, but there’s quite the step down from there and that needs to change.

Results
Indi Hartwell b. Heather By Elegance – Hurts Donut
Trey Miguel b. Stacks – Lightning Spiral
Jody Threat b. Tessa Blanchard via DQ when Victoria Crawford interfered
Sinner And Saint b. BDE/Rich Swann – Total Elimination to BDE
Elijah b. Mustafa Ali – Elijah shut Ali in the casket

No Surrender 2026
Date: February 13, 2026
Location: The Pinnacle, Nashville, Tennessee
Commentators: Tom Hannifan, Matthew Rehwoldt

I’m really not sure what to expect from this one as TNA hasn’t exactly gone out of their way to make it feel important. It comes off like a show that happens to be taking place with a few important matches being set up and not much more. The main event is Leon Slater/Mike Santana vs. Nic Nemeth/Eddie Edwards so let’s get to it.

Pre-Show: Brad Attitude/TW3 vs. Sinner And Saint

Sinner And Saint say they haven’t been here in a long time and it’s a shame that the people are sleeping on the team they should be dreaming about. Williams shoulders Attitude over to start and it’s off to TW3 for some kicks to the arm. Icarus comes in to take TW3 down but it’s back to Williams, who gets kicked down off a distraction.

Williams gets kicked down some more and his chops don’t do much good. A suplex gets Williams out of trouble and a handspring clothesline allows the tag off to Icarus. Everything breaks down and a middle rope dropkick sends TW3 outside. Williams’ dive drops TW3 again and a frog splash gives Icarus two, with Attitude making the save. A running kick to the face/belly to back fisherman’s suplex combination finishes TW3 at 6:48.

Rating: C+. It wasn’t much of a match, but this was all about giving the fans some wrestling to get warmed up with before the important matches. As a result, this was fine enough, though I still don’t get the appeal of Sinner And Saint. They’re just kind of a generic team who does well enough in the ring and while they’re far from bad, I’m not sure how interesting they are.

Mike Jackson (76 years old) is happy to be here but Mance Warner and Steph de Lander come in to complain about how much time he’s getting. Jackson says he’s stood across the ring from the biggest names in wrestling and Warner isn’t one of them. A match is made for later, with Jackson not knowing de Lander’s name either (on purpose).

Pre-Show: Alan Angels vs. Ryan Nemeth,

Hold on though as before the bell, here is Frankie Kazarian to say we’re going to have an impromptu King’s Speech instead of this match. Nemeth says he gets paid just because he got in the ring so he’s leaving (with Kazarian leaving him hanging). Kazarian talks about signing a new contract and getting a big raise, which he has of course earned. He’ll be back in the World Title picture, because he just lost the World Title while wrestling with a broken hand.

As for tonight, Kazarian will be watching the main event very closely. He explains Option C….and has to pause to address the WRAP IT UP chants. Angels is still in the ring though and grabs the mic, saying he doesn’t remember Kazarian being so horrible. Kazarian says get out of his ring but Angels isn’t leaving. Kazarian threatens to punch Albert Angle in the face but Angels punches him out first. Angels wants a match and we’re doing this now.

Pre-Show: Alan Angels vs. Frankie Kazarian

Kazarian is in street clothes. Angels pulls him inside for two off a rollup and snaps off a hurricanrana to the floor. A high crossbody gives Angels two and he grabs the Rings Of Saturn. That’s broken up and Kazarian gets the chickenwing for the tap at 2:26.

And now, the show proper.

The opening video looks at TNA’s recent hot streak, plus the show’s bigger matches.

Knockouts Battle Royal

Mara Sade, Rosemary, Tessa Blanchard, Victoria Crawford, Mila Moore, Myla Grace, Harley Hudson, Jada Stone, Jody Threat, Tasha Steelz, Elayna Black

For a future Knockouts Title shot. Rosemary yells a lot and even scares Blanchard early on. Rosemary sends Hudson to the apron but gets tossed out by Threat. Rosemary is so ticked off that she comes up swinging a chair. Stone is out, followed by Steelz, with the two of them fighting on the floor.

Riggins is gone as well as the eliminations pick up in pace. Crawford eliminates Grace and poses a bit but Blanchard accidentally knocks out Moore and Crawford at the same time. Threat holds on by her feet, leaving Black and Sade to fight on the apron. The two of them slug it out with Black being eliminated but Blanchard shoves Sade out, leaving us with Blanchard and Threat. Back up and the Pop Shove It sends Blanchard to the floor so Threat can win at 8:01.

Rating: C. This wasn’t great but they kept it short enough to not be too bad. Threat winning is a surprise as Sade has been getting some TV time as of late and her getting the spot would have made sense. The rest of this just kind of showed that the division needs to develop some more stars, as they only have so much depth right now. Granted that’s what giving someone like Threat a chance can do.

Leon Slater and Mike Santana are ready for the main event, with Santana wanting to keep the grass mowed so he can take them down. Slater is glad to be back and he’s not thinking about Option C tonight. Santana threatens to eat Nic Nemeth and Eddie Edwards alive tonight.

Jelly Roll is here. Fair points on having a big name.

International Title: Stacks vs. Trey Miguel

Stacks, with Arianna Grace, is defending and Miguel has a singer named Teddy Swims in his corner. Miguel rushes at him to start and hits a dropkick to the floor. Grace pulls Stacks away from the running flip dive though and Miguel gets tied up in the ring skirt. Back in and Stacks slams him down, setting up a mockery of Santino Marella’s trombone pose. The chinlock goes on for a bit, followed by a legdrop for two on Miguel.

Back up and Miguel springboards off the bottom rope and grabs a German suplex to leave them both down. They go up top and either fall off or do a weird rolling to the side superplex to give Stacks two. A fisherman’s neckbreaker gives Stacks two more but Miguel is back with a not good looking Roll Of The Dice for two of his own.

Stacks is able to dropkick Miguel to the floor but Grace gets caught slapping him, meaning it’s an ejection. Miguel is back up with a sliding tornado DDT to drop Stacks on the floor, followed by a spinning Downward Spiral back inside. The Lightning Spiral gives Miguel the pin and the title at 11:00.

Rating: C+. They had a series of not great looking spots in there as they were going a bit too fast and it hurt things a lot. At the same time though, anytime my eyebrows actually pop up in surprise over a result, it’s probably a good sign. Miguel winning is a big surprise and I’m not opposed to it, as Stacks wasn’t going to be a long term champion anyway.

Here is AJ Francis for an unscheduled appearance. Francis talks about the Seattle Seahawks winning the Super Bowl and compares himself to Bad Bunny. They’re both rappers, they’re both wrestlers, and they’re both stars. As for Jelly Roll, if he ever wants to cross the line, he’ll see why this is TNAJ Francis’ place. He’ll be on commentary for the rest of the night. Hannifan: “What did I do to deserve this pain?”

Mance Warner vs. Mike Jackson

Jackson (76 years old) goes after the arm to start and does an Old School around all four ropes (Warner does nothing) before knocking Warner down. The dive is cut off and Jackson reverses a suplex into one of his own. A suicide dive connects and even Francis has to show him some respect. Back in and Warner’s chops don’t get him very far as Jackson strikes away as well. A neckbreaker gives Jackson two but Warner drops him with a running clothesline. The Pay Window finishes Jackson at 5:19.

Rating: C. The match wasn’t exactly great, but Jackson more than held his own in there. That’s the point of a match with Jackson, who is in pretty good shape all things considered and didn’t do anything that would embarrass him. I’m not sure how much it needed to be on a special, but there are worse ways to go.

Post match Warner tells Jackson that he still has it and they shake hands, with de Lander doing the same. Francis: “This is pathetic.” Francis yells at de Lander and blames her for ruining Warner. That gets Warner in Francis’ face and Francis storms off. That seems like a face turn for Warner, though I liked Warner better as a good guy so maybe it works.

Arianna Grace yells at Stacks for screwing up and threatens to break up with him if anything else goes wrong. Then he can eat candy all by himself. Quite the threat.

Knockouts Tag Team Titles: Indi Hartwell/Xia Brookside vs. Elegance Brand

The Brand is defending. Brookside takes over on Heather to start and it’s off to Hartwell for a headlock takeover. M comes in to take Hartwell down and chokes with the cloth on her arm. That doesn’t last long and it’s back to Brookside for a Russian legsweep to Heather. Mr. Elegance offers a distraction though and the champs knock Brookside down into the corner.

The chinlock goes on for a bit so Brookside grabs a small package for a breather. That doesn’t last long either as Heather sends her into the ropes, where M gets in a running boot on the apron. The champs spend too long posing though and it’s a double shove from Hartwell to put them on the floor. Hartwell comes in off the tag for some big boots and a top rope elbow hits Heather for two. A Michinoku Driver cuts Hartwell off though and she gets sent into the post, setting up Nip And Tuck. Hartwell’s foot is on the rope but Ash shoves it off to retain the titles at 11:07.

Rating: C+. The match picked up a bit at the end and that’s a good thing as it wasn’t much to see for the first part. Hartwell and Brookside are pretty much a makeshift team and that doesn’t make for the best challengers. At the same time, you’re only going to get so far with the options you have for challengers so throwing teams together is often the best you can do.

Post match Mickie James of all people comes out (Ash LOSES IT) and beats up Ash (all the more impressive since James is in massive heels).

We recap Eric Young vs. BDE. Young wanted BDE to join him but BDE refused, earning himself a beating last night on Impact. Now it’s time to fight.

Eric Young vs. BDE

It’s a brawl before the bell with BDE getting hit low and then the match officially starting. Young hammers away to start but BDE manages a middle rope Blockbuster. The running hurricanrana gets two but Young is back with a sitout powerbomb for two of his own. BDE fights back but gets powerslammed down for two more. The slow pace continues until BDE manages to get in a springboard cutter for another near fall.

Young is put up top, where he bites BDE’s face to put him down. There’s the top rope elbow for two and the Death Valley Driver connects to give Young two more. BDE bites him right back off the top and a Canadian Destroyer gets a rather near fall. BDE goes up again but the referee is shoved into the ropes, setting up the piledriver to give Young the pin at 10:23.

Rating: C+. As usual, here’s the thing: if Young is supposed to be this next big bad with whatever he’s doing with the Cleanse, he shouldn’t be needing ten minutes and cheating to beat a glorified celebrity wrestler. Young is far from the worst wrestler, but him as this tough crazy guy is horrible miscasting and has been for years. Unfortunately that seems to be continuing, and possibly in a much bigger way soon.

Jody Threat is happy with her win and gets some applause from other Knockouts. Tessa Blanchard and company come in, with Blanchard saying she should have won. A match is made for Impact.

We recap Arianna Grace challenging Lei Ying Lee for the Knockouts Title. Grace is Santino Marella’s daughter and has teased wanting to make up for him, including by getting this shot. Shenanigans may be afoot though and Lee happens to be here too.

Knockouts Title: Arianna Grace vs. Lei Ying Lee

Grace, with Stacks, is challenging and commentary points out that Grace isn’t very good, even citing her win/loss record. They start slowly with Grace taking over and sending Lee to the apron. Lee flips over her to come back inside and sweeps the leg…as Dani Luna (who had a title match set up but was held off due to visa issues) returns.

Security cuts her off and gets rid of her, leaving Grace to hit a neckbreaker for a quick two. Lee is sent into the apron and we’re off to a neck crank inside. That’s broken up and Lee hammers away with right hands in the corner but gets facebustered. A fisherman’s neckbreaker gets two but Lee snaps off a German suplex.

They forearm it out from their knees until Lee loads up Warrior’s Way. Grace goes to the eyes so Stacks sends in the belt, which doesn’t work well. Instead Lee kicks Stacks down so Grace pulls out the Cobra (which she stole from Santino Marella last night). That and a fireman’s carry facebuster give Grace the title at 13:21.

Rating: C. Grace is hardly a polished star in the ring, but that’s kind of the point. The idea here is that she manipulated her way into a title shot and then cheated to win (even though IT’S JUST A SOCK). That’s at least a story and it feels like someone stole a title rather than just holding it until a member of the regular roster can pick it off.

Rich Swann throws BDE a video game controller but says BDE has been playing a bit too long. Now Swann is ready to give him a tutorial in wrestling but it’s time to game first.

We recap the tag team main event. Apparently if Nic Nemeth (Call Your Shot), Eddie Edwards (Feast Or Fired) or Leon Slater (Option C) cash in their title shot, the tag match is thrown out and the World Title is on the line. Because THAT is a good idea. If you have three people with instant World Title matches available, you really need to rein things, because that’s ridiculous.

Order 4 vs. Righteous/Hardys

The question here is whether the Hardys can, or should, trust the Righteous. Matt takes over on Skyler to start and neckbreakers him down. Jeff comes in for a quick splash but gets into it with Ali, meaning everything breaks down in a hurry. We settle down to Dutch whipping Hotch upside down in the corner and it’s off to Vincent. Hotch is beaten down again and it’s off to Zero, who powers Vincent up rather quickly.

Ali comes in and tries a superplex, only to get shoved down, allowing Vincent to hit a tornado DDT. That’s enough for the tag off to Matt so the pace can be picked up. Hotch breaks up the Twist Of Fate to Skyler though and it’s back to Jeff instead. A basement dropkick and elbow get two on Hotch and the Whisper In The Wind does it again. Everything breaks down and Zero cleans house, followed by a heck of a suicide dive.

Dutch is right there with a big flip dive of his own but Zero powerslams him back inside. The good guys get together to beat up Zero in the corner and the quadruple teaming actually puts him down. Matt and Dutch hit stereo Twists Of Fate, setting up stereo Swantons from Jeff and Vincent but a double save breaks up the covers. They brawl onto the ramp and a big crash sends a bunch of people to the floor. Tasha Steelz throws powder in Dutch’s eyes and he takes Matt out by mistake. The 450 gives Ali the pin on Matt at 15:31.

Rating: B. They did a good job here with building up the question of whether or not the Righteous would turn on the Hardys. The ending leaves you wondering even more and that’s a good feeling. It’s better than just having the turn take place and if Order 4 gets thrown into the title picture as well, so be it.

Post match the lights go out and it’s a big guitar case casket. Elijah pops up throws Ali inside but Ali bails before their casket match on Impact.

Santino Marella tries to talk to Arianna Grace but gets Daria Rae instead. Daria threatens him if anything happens, and don’t bother looking for the sock. Do anything to anyone, and he’ll be fired.

We recap the main event of Mike Santana/Leon Slater vs. Nic Nemeth/Eddie Edwards. The idea is that all three challengers have guaranteed World Title matches and could cash in anytime.

Mike Santana/Leon Slater vs. Nic Nemeth/Eddie Edwards

Santana and Edwards start things off with a feeling out process until Edwards grabs a headlock. That doesn’t get either very far so it’s off to Nemeth to work on the arm. Slater comes in for a nice dropkick and nine right hands in the corner, setting up a monkey flip right back out of it. It’s back to Santana, who sends Nemeth outside…for the tease of a cash in.

That’s enough of a distraction for the villains to take over on Santana back inside, with Santana getting caught in the corner. The comeback doesn’t take long as Santana gets over for the tag off to Slater, who fights off a double team attempt. The handspring elbow drops Nemeth and Edwards and Slater takes Edwards out with a big dive to the floor. Everything breaks down and Santana hits his own dive onto the System.

Back in and Slater misses the Swanton 450 to Edwards and walks into a superkick to give Nemeth two. It’s back to Slater, who is caught in the wrong corner again but he heads outside to run around the ring. That’s not quite enough for the tag off to Santana, so Slater kicks the villains into each other. NOW it’s back to Santana to clean house, including a heck of a chop to Nemeth.

An assisted standing moonsault gets two on Nemeth and everything breaks down, with Slater hitting the big running flip dive over the corner. Cue the fired Steve Maclin to go after Santana (why this isn’t a DQ isn’t clear) and they brawl into the crowd. So that leaves Slater in a handicap match, with the System still on the floor. Nemeth mocks Slater having no partners but Slater is back with a running knee to drop Edwards.

It’s back to Nemeth, whose running DDT is countered. Slater’s high crossbody takes both of them down for two but the referee gets bumped. The System runs in to go after Slater but here is Moose to interrupt. Moose cleans house of the non-in this match members of the System, including brawling to the back with Edwards. That leaves Nemeth to Fameasser Slater for two but he kicks Nemeth down, setting up the Swanton 450 for the pin at 23:12.

Rating: B. Well, it certainly wasn’t boring. This was more a “Slater is back and he’s really good”. They managed to hide the fact that in the end, nothing was actually on the line here. That’s a hard place to go, especially with Moose wanting revenge on the team which doesn’t really have a leader. They tried something different here and while it wasn’t a smash hit, it worked well enough, especially for Slater.

Overall Rating: B-. I came into this show with pretty much no expectations and the stakes feeling pretty low (including in the main event, with the three teased cash-ins not really being a thing until tonight) and wound up getting a good show. It’s not a classic or close to it, but I can always go for a show where the worst part was perfectly fine. They’ll need to raise the stakes next time, but this worked for a nice surprise.

Results
Sinner And Saint b. Brad Attitude/TW3 – Reverse fisherman’s suplex to TW3
Frankie Kazarian b. Alan Angels – Chickenwing
Jody Threat won a Knockouts Battle Royal last eliminating Tessa Blanchard
Trey Miguel b. Stacks – Lightning Spiral
Mance Warner b. Mike Jackson – Pay Window
Elegance Brand b. Indi Hartwell/Xia Brookside – Nip And Tuck to Hartwell
Eric Young b. BDE – Piledriver

Impact Wrestling
Date: February 12, 2026
Location: Tingley Coliseum, Albuquerque, New Mexico
Commentators: Tom Hannifan, Matthew Rehwoldt

We’re on the way to this weekend’s No Surrender, though the show isn’t exactly feeling like anything special. It would be nice to get a boost on the way there and that’s the point of this show. If nothing else, I’m curious to see what may or may not be going on with Steve Maclin so let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Opening recap.

Opening sequence.

Here is Moose (in a snazzy jacket) to get things going. Moose wouldn’t usually come out here and talk about people leaving him laying because he isn’t a little b****. Two years ago, he created the System and he knows exactly what he needs to do to dismantle it. There is one man back there who knows how to take out the System one by one so here is Mike Santana.

He knows the two of them have fought each other face to face so now it’s time for them to fight together against the System. Now they just need the Hardys, but instead here is Daria Rae to interrupt. Any violence they’re planning can be saved for the main event so the good guys…leave.

Ryan Nemeth, sounding like he’s doing a weird voice on purpose, is ready to beat Mara Sade in a street fight. Oh dear.

Alisha Edwards apologizes to Moose for what happened and says she might just leave before her contract is up. Moose believes her, even though it feels likely that she’s going to turn on him.

Rich Swann vs. Nic Nemeth

Nemeth backs him into the corner to start but Swann is back with a quick hammerlock. That’s broken up so Swann headstands out of a headscissors without much trouble. A dropkick puts Nemeth on the floor and we take a break. We come back with Swann winning a slugout but getting caught with a Fameasser for two. The Danger Zone is blocked though and Swann hits a superkick, only to have to flip out of another Danger Zone attempt.

Nemeth is knocked down and Swann’s frog splash gets two. The phoenix splash misses and Nemeth hits a running DDT as commentary talks about Option C (as in the X-Division can cash in the title for a World Title shot at any time, though it hasn’t been used in years), because that’s a thing again. Nemeth’s sleeper is countered into an AA and they’re both down for a bit. They slug it out from their knees until Swann tries a Lethal Injection, which is countered into the Danger Zone for the pin at 12:02.

Rating: B. That finish was great as Nemeth timed it perfectly (at least as the camera saw) for a good win. Nemeth could be moved into a bigger spot soon and beating a former World Champion should help him. At the same time, Swann is a former World Champion who has nothing going on right now, with basically no momentum. I’m not sure I see that changing anytime soon, though he had a good match here.

Xia Brookside and Indi Hartwell are ready to watch Lei Ying Lee retain the Knockouts Title but they want the Knockouts Tag Team Titles.

The Righteous can’t wait to team with the Hardys at No Surrender when they’ll face Order 4. Fear is just a four letter word and they are honored to team with the Hardys, because this is going according to plan.

Here is Eric Young for a chat. Young hates how this place has gone and it’s time for a cleanse. That starts with BDE, who needs to come out here and answer Young’s offer to join him. BDE comes out and Young says he doesn’t understand BDE, but knows that they need his voice and reach. Now which side is BDE on? BDE says he doesn’t need Young or his imaginary friends so the answer is a big no. The brawl is on and Young hits a piledriver, shoves a female referee, and piledrives a pair of security guards.

Post break Santino Marella suspends Young but Daria Rae reverses it and makes Young vs. BDE for No Surrender.

Ryan Nemeth vs. Mara Sade

Street fight and falls count anywhere. Sade ducks a cheap shot and punches him into the crowd to start fast. They’re already back to ringside and Sade throws in the metal sheets to hit him in the head. A missile dropkick sends Nemeth outside but he manages to tie her up in the ring skirt. Sade is right back out with a chair shot to the ribs but Nemeth knocks her down and reveals an Andy Kaufman WOMEN’S WRESTLING CHAMPION OF THE WORLD shirt.

A neckbreaker on the floor gives Nemeth two so he loads up a chair. Another neckbreaker takes too long though and Sade sends him hard into the post. Sade pours out a bag of lollipops and suplexes him onto them, which doesn’t seem as devastating as she might think it is. Back in and Sade unloads with a kendo stick and a White Russian legsweep gets two. Nemeth takes the stick away though and knocks her down, allowing him to go up. That means a quick crotching and another superkick finishes Nemeth off at 8:40.

Rating: C. It wasn’t particularly good but this should wrap up the feud. Sade was in her hometown and got to beat a comedy goof so it wasn’t like she had any reason to lose. Nemeth is the definition of someone who can get beaten like this and not fall in the slightest because he had nowhere to go but down. Sade has gotten some nice TV time out of this though and that’s a good sign for her start in the company.

Steph de Lander and Mance Warner introduce themselves and explain their love of violence.

Video on Elijah vs. Order 4, with Elijah not liking Mustafa Ali’s prayer asking God to stop him. Therefore, it’s time for a casket match. Oh wait: a GUITAR CASE casket match. I guess that is officially a thing.

No Surrender rundown.

Arianna Grace thanks Santino Marella for her Knockouts Title shot at No Surrender…but she steals the Cobra. She does know it’s just a sock right?

The System vs. Hardys/Moose/Mike Santana

The System immediately bails from Moose to start so it’s off to Santana, which has Myers willing to get back inside. Santana dropkicks him down and hits a backsplash, allowing Jeff to come in to quite the reaction. Myers gets catapulted throat first into the middle rope and a splash gives Jeff two. Edwards comes in and clotheslines Santana to take over, allowing Bronson to hammer away in the corner.

Santana slips out of Alexander’s belly to back suplex though and brings Moose in to start wrecking things. The chokebomb gets two on Alexander and a dropkick cuts off a charging Edwards. Matt comes back in to send Myers into the buckle over and over but Bronson comes in to run Matt over. Bronson sits on Matt’s chest and we take a break.

We come back with Alexander suplexing Matt for two and slapping on the chinlock. That works so well that Myers comes in for one of his own but Matt Side Effects his way out of trouble. Everything breaks down and a Blue Thunder Bomb into a top rope elbow into a frog splash gets two on Santana. Moose is back in to clean house but Bronson takes him out.

That earns him a Twist Of Fate from Matt and everyone is down. Jeff grabs a rather wacky submission so Myers grabs a belt, only to have Alisha Edwards pull it away. Moose kicks Myers down but gets taken down by a dive. Santana hits a dive of his own and it’s a Plot Twist to Bronson. Alexander crotches Jeff on top though and Bronson’s fire thunder driver gets the big upset pin at 21:19.

Rating: B. You need this much time if you’re going to have so many people involved in the match and it helped a good bit here. Bronson getting the win is certainly a big deal for him and a nice welcome to the team. If nothing else it might give the Hardys another set of challengers, which they could certainly use. Moose is going to need to get some revenge, though I’m not sure who the big final boss is supposed to be. Edwards in theory, but how big does that feel?

Overall Rating: B. The opener and main event were good and the middle match was goofy fun. I liked most of the show and can even overlook the always dumb Eric Young nonsense. Other than that, I’m not sure how much this did to set up No Surrender, but TNA doesn’t seem to be treating that as much in the first place anyway. Nice show here, with the solid wrestling carrying things.

Results
Nic Nemeth b. Rich Swann – Danger Zone
Mara Sade b. Ryan Nemeth – Superkick
The System b. Hardys/Moose/Mike Santana – Fire thunder driver to Jeff

Impact Wrestling
Date: February 5, 2026
Location: Tingley Coliseum, Albuquerque, New Mexico
Commentators: Tom Hannifan, Matthew Rehwoldt

Things got more interesting last week as we had the results of the Feast Or Fired briefcases. That means it’s time to have some fresh title matches coming up, though it’s not clear when those will actually happen. Other than that, we should be in for the build towards next week’s No Surrender. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Opening recap.

Opening sequence.

Trey Miguel vs. Adam Brooks

Arianna Grace is on commentary. They fight over arm control to start, with Miguel snapping the arm over the top rope. Miguel even goes outside to blow Grace a kiss but charges into Brooks’ kick to the head back inside. A running forearm gives Brooks two and he chokes on the ropes. Miguel is right back with a German suplex into a hurricanrana but Brooks cuts him off on top. Brooks kicks him in the face a few times, followed by the sitout powerbomb for two. Miguel grabs a poisonrana into the Lightning Spiral for the fast pin at 7:34.

Rating: C+. Brooks got to show off a bit here and it made for a nice opener here. There wasn’t much in the way of drama about the result, but at least Brooks wasn’t treated as a total loser here. Miguel is on his way to an International Title match and that means he gets built up, which is basically what he did here.

Post match Stacks runs in and belts Miguel in the face.

Lei Ying Lee, Xia Brookside and Indi Hartwell are ready to take out the Elegance Brand tonight.

Righteous vs. Tommy Two Scoops/TW3

Two Scoops is either the worst name I’ve ever heard or the most amazing. Maybe both. Vincent knocks both of them down to start and it’s off to Dutch for a legdrop on TW3. Orange Sunshine (an assisted cutter) finishes for Vincent at 2:25.

Post match the Righteous say they want to team with the Hardys instead of fight against them.

The Hardys aren’t sure about this but the System comes in to beat them down.

Frankie Kazarian shakes hands with Daria Rae before coming out to the stage. Kazarian can’t stand Mike Santana walking around with his title but Kazarian blames a hand injury. Rae understands his issues though and there is not a man in this city who can take him out. Cue Elijah, who walks past Kazarian and goes to the ring for his scheduled match.

Elijah/Jada Stone vs. Order 4

Stone and Steelz (there’s a tag name in there somewhere) start things off with Stone snapping off some early armdrags. Steelz bails outside and there’s the big dive from Stone as we take a break. We come back with Elijah giving Ali a sitout powerbomb, allowing the tag back to Stone. A split legged moonsault gets two on Steelz but Agent Zero World’s Strongest Slams Elijah onto the apron.

That leaves Ali to shove Stone, who forearms him in the face instead. A tornado DDT plants Ali and a second one sends him crashing out to the floor. Stone’s moonsault drops Order 4 on the floor but Ali drops her with a clothesline. Back in and Stone grabs a Stunner, with Steelz having to make a save. Stone gets back up and heads to the top, but Agent Zero distracts the referee. Ali hits a Stone with a Highwayman’s Farewell to give Steelz the pin at 11:25.

Rating: B-. Geez what a performance from Stone, who got to run absolutely wild there for a little while. It made for a great run with both Steelz and Ali getting taken out a few times. That can only last for so long though and it made sense for the villains to use the numbers game to take over. Fun match.

Arianna Grace appeals to Santino Marella and wants a title match, just to show what she can do. Marella agrees, which can’t be a good idea.

Daria Rae announces the card for No Surrender:

• Stacks defending the International Title against Trey Miguel (in the Feast Or Fired cash in)
• The Hardys/Righteous vs. Order 4
• Mike Santana/Leon Slater vs. Nic Nemeth/Eddie Edwards

That’s certainly a No Surrender card. Santino Marella comes in to say that Arianna Grace will get her Knockouts Title shot, but Rae is more annoyed that Marella has allowed Steve Maclin to be here. Maclin is upset because of what this place has meant to him. He’s glad that he’s leaving with his head held high. Mike Santana stops him, saying Maclin always believed in him. They shake hands…and Maclin jumps him. Security breaks it up and throws Maclin out. I heartily approve of Santana vs. Maclin.

Tessa Blanchard vs. Rachel Ley

Blanchard throws her down to start and works on the arm, followed by some choking on the rope. Blanchard doesn’t seem overly worried here and hammers away on the mat. Ley gets a boot up in the corner but misses a moonsault. The Buzzsaw finishes for Blanchard at 3:28.

Rating: C-. This was a total squash and shows you just how good Blanchard is in the ring. She has a lot of issues but talent has never been one of them, as she can do just about anything out there. It’s a shame she has so much baggage with her, as she could be one of the biggest stars in the world otherwise.

Ryan Nemeth and Mara Sade are at a football stadium, where Sade does a Mr. Perfect impression by throwing herself a long pass. Then they throw darts, where Nemeth gets stabbed, and then they play basketball, where Sade superkicks him.

Eric Young offers BDE a change to join him but BDE isn’t interested. More on this next week.

Elegance Brand vs. Angel Warriors/Indi Hartwell

The Brand is in Breaking Bad gear for a change. Ash and Lee start things off but of course Ash brings in M to get kicked down instead. A headscissors takes Brookside down, which is quickly broken up. Everything breaks down and the Brand is knocked outside. Heather comes back inside and gets dropkicked into the corner to keep her in trouble. A cheap shot from the floor cuts Brookside off though and M adds a backsplash for two.

Ash comes in to stomp away in the corner and it’s back to Heather for a chinlock. That doesn’t last long either as Lee gets the tag to clean house. Mr. Elegance throws a shirt in to distract her though and Ash grabs her own chinlock. This one is reversed for a double clothesline, allowing Hartwell and M to come back in. Brookside hits a big dive to the floor to take everyone down and the Personal Concierge glitter bombs Mr. Elegance by mistake. Back in and Brookside rolls Heather up for the pin at 12:22.

Rating: B-. Nice match here, with the important thing being that Ash is able to get back in the ring. It’s good to have someone back to full health and she brings some star power to the roster. You can see the Angel Warriors getting the title shot from here, which fits perfectly as it means we could have another double champion, as that’s such an original idea.

Post match the Brand jumps the winners.

Here is a ticked off Mike Santana for a chat. He talks about sitting in this ring and talking about what it means to be champion. The title made one of his former best friends turn on him earlier tonight…and here is the System to jump Santana. Cue the Hardys for the save, with Moose returning to join in and clean house to end the show.

Overall Rating: C. This wasn’t their strongest show, but I do rather like the idea of Santana vs. Maclin. The two of them have some interesting chemistry together and it could make for a heck of a showdown. Other than that, you have the briefcases getting us to the next batch of title matches, with Santana having quite a few people lining up to come after the title. Not a great show this week, though at least it set up some stuff for the future.

Results
Trey Miguel b. Adam Brooks – Lightning Spiral
Righteous b. Tommy Two Scoops/TW3 – Orange Sunshine to TW3
Order 4 b. Elijah/Jada Stone – Highwayman’s Farewell to Stone
Tessa Blanchard b. Rachel Ley – Buzzsaw
Angel Warriors/Indi Hartwell b. Elegance Brand – Rollup to Heather

Impact Wrestling
Date: January 29, 2026
Location: Tingley Coliseum, Albuquerque, New Mexico
Commentators: Tom Hannifan, Matthew Rehwoldt

It’s a big night as we have the unveiling of the Feast Or Fired briefcases. Therefore, three people are going to get title matches and a fourth is going to be fired. That can make for quite the dramatic moment and now we get to see who winds up getting what. In addition, Rich Swann and AJ Francis are facing off in a No DQ match. Let’s get to it.

Here are last week’s results if you need a recap.

Opening sequence.

Here is the new System for a chat. Brian Myers says it had to be done and Eddie Edwards says he’s going to break it all down for you. Moose used to be the most dominant star in all of wrestling but he is just selfish. All he cared about was himself rather than the team. Then you have JDC, who walked away from the team. This brings out Alisha Edwards, who gets in Eddie’s face and says he kept this from her. Her contract is coming up and maybe she doesn’t want to be part of the System. She walks away and Eddie isn’t happy.

BDE is ready to prove that he belongs here tonight.

Nic Nemeth vs. BDE

Nemeth offers a handshake to start and then kicks him in the ribs to take over. A front facelock doesn’t work as well for Nemeth as BDE knocks him outside with a clothesline. The dive connects but the springboard elbow back inside doesn’t. We take a break and come back with BDE still in trouble with Nemeth sending him into the corner for some cocky forearming.

BDE manages to reverse a whip into the corner but a running knee is dropped with a clothesline. Back up and the running knee does connect for BDE and a frog splash gets two. BDE tries a springboard elbow but dives into the Danger Zone (that was nice) to give Nemeth the pin at 11:37.

Rating: C+. This wasn’t an all time classic or anything but it was a nice way to let BDE look good in the process. BDE can’t do much in the way of regular wrestling and is basically just a moves guy, but he’s likable enough and isn’t taking up any kind of major spot. Let him do what he can and have a veteran like Nemeth in there to walk him through the match. It worked well enough and I liked this.

Post match Ryan Nemeth comes out to celebrate with Nic before getting in the ring. He calls out Mara Sade, who he says has been assaulting him. Sade says Ryan got away with one at Genesis so he offers to let her give him a kiss. The ensuing superkick is blocked and a clothesline puts Sade down hard.

The Elegance Brand gives Ash By Elegance presents because she is officially medically cleared. Lei Ying Lee comes in to say she’s ready to defend anytime and here are Indi Hartwell and Xia Brookside to set up a six woman tag. Mr. Elegance seems to hit on Hartwell, who takes the champagne and says it’s not her kind of party before than leaving.

Stacks vs. Home Town Man

Non-title and Arianna Grace is here with Stacks, who holds up Man’s stolen mask. That means the brawl is on fast and Man stomps away in the corner, with the fans rather approving. They go outside with Stacks mocking a fan with the mask, which Man takes away and gives to said fan in a nice moment.

Back in and a corkscrew uppercut gives Stacks two and he grabs something like a half crab. That’s kicked away with Stacks crashing to the floor, allowing Man to hit a People’s Elbow. A crossbody gets two but Grace’s distraction….doesn’t really work. Instead Stacks goes to the eyes and grabs a rollup with feet on the ropes for the pin at 5:51.

Rating: C. Well, this match did in fact confirm that Stacks is in fact a wrestler and he is in fact just kind of there. That’s been my thoughts on Stacks for a long time now as there is nothing to him that really stands out. Yes he’s with Grace and that helps a bit, but there isn’t anything about Stacks alone to make him feel interesting or stand out. That’s not good and while there are worse options, I really don’t see it with him.

Post break Stacks says Grace didn’t help him and Santino Marella shows up. Grace seems to threaten both of them with making a mistake of her own.

Jason Hotch vs. Elijah

The rest of Order 4 is here with Hotch. Elijah takes him down by the arm to start and Hotch bails out to the floor. Back in and Elijah works on the arm, including Old School for two. Tasha Steelz has to offer a distraction and Hotch gets in a cheap shot to take over. Some stomping has Elijah down in the corner but he’s right back with a backdrop.

Hotch has to rake the eyes to get out of a fireman’s carry and another distraction lets him hit a Codebreaker onto the arm. The knees to the arm set up some cranking, with Elijah flipping out pretty quickly. A suplex neckbreaker gives Elijah two but Hotch is back with a superkick. The torture rack bomb gets two on Elijah, who is right back to knee Hotch out of the air. The Highwayman’s Farewell finishes Hotch at 7:58.

Rating: C+. Normally I would say that Hotch was a good hand but TNA has already beaten me to that one. This is a good way to keep the Elijah vs. Order 4/Mustafa Ali feud going, though it does make you wonder why that feud is continuing. Ali needs to move on to something bigger but maybe we’ll see it one more time and then they’ll move on for good.

Post match Order 4 jumps Elijah, with Ali grabbing the guitar. That’s enough for Elijah to fight back and use the guitar to clear the ring.

Post break Jada Stone is rather excited to be here but Order 4 comes in to yell at her. Tasha Steelz even slaps her down, with Elijah popping in to help her up like a gentleman.

Elayna Black vs. Ruthie Jay

Daria Rae is on commentary. Black jumps her to start and grabs a gutwrench suplex. The chinlock goes on but Jay is up for a running shoulder in the corner. Black isn’t having that though and grabs a swinging double underhook neckbreaker for the pin at 2:46. Pretty much a squash, as it should have been.

The Hardys are happy with how things have been going but the Righteous come in to talk about their Genesis match. They also seem to tease an alliance between the teams. Didn’t they do that before?

It’s time for the Feast Or Fired reveals. Trey Miguel is up first and gets…an International Title shot. Next is Eddie Edwards, who gets a World Title shot. That leaves Steve Maclin and Eric Young, with Maclin being fired and Young getting an X-Division Title shot.

Post break, Eddie Edwards and the System come up to threaten Mike Santana with a cash in. Santana glares back.

Commentary is depressed by Steve Maclin being fired.

Here’s what’s coming next week.

AJ Francis vs. Rich Swann

Anything goes so Swann brings out a trashcan full of weapons (must be a Raven fan). Swann hits him with a baseball bat to start but Francis won’t let him bring in a table. The table is set up on the floor anyway but Francis kicks him down again. They head to the state where Swann slips out of attempts at a chokeslam and a Styles Clash. Instead Francis goes with a Pedigree and we take a break.

We come back with Francis sitting in a chair with his foot on Swann’s back. Swann fights up and sends him face first into the chair but an Air Raid Crash onto the chair gives Francis two. Back up and Swann is able to drop Francis face first onto the steps, followed by a handspring cutter for two more. Swann sets up another table on the floor and throws in a bunch of chairs, though he couldn’t keep Francis down for three.

Back in and a Pounce gives Francis two but Swann grabs a hurricanrana through the tables on the floor. The Phoenix splash hits Francis for two more and it’s time for the baseball bat again. Francis uses the delay to grab a chain and knock Swann silly with a right hand for two. Swann is put inside a trashcan and obliterated with a chair….for two. Francis tries to take him up top but gets hurricanranaed down onto the pile of chairs. That lets Swann unload with the chair, followed by a frog splash to pin Francis at 16:20.

Rating: B. This was a weapons filled and at times somewhat goofy brawl but it did feel like the big definitive ending for their feud. That’s what it needed to be as Swann needs to move on to something else. Swann is someone who could be a bigger deal around here so getting this kind of a win is a good sign for his future. Francis can go away for a few weeks and come back with one of those condescending promos of his and he’ll be fine.

Frankie Kazarian wants to talk to Daria Rae to end the show.

Overall Rating: C+. This show felt like it was designed to get things ready for the next big stretch, with Feast Or Fired giving us three upcoming title matches. Hopefully Maclin leaving is just a head fake as TNA really doesn’t need to lose someone that good. Swann winning is a good thing to see and he won a big main event, though we’ll have to see where he goes. The Daria Rae stuff feels like it’s going to be the next big us vs. them story and…yeah that’s only so appealing after we just got done with the NXT invasion stuff. Just let Mike Santana be the focus maybe? The World Champion? Maybe?

Results
Nic Nemeth b. BDE – Danger Zone
Stacks b. Home Town Man – Rollup with feet on the ropes
Elijah b. Jason Hotch – Highwayman’s Farewell
Elayna Black b. Ruthie Jay – Swinging double underhook neckbreaker
Rich Swann b. AJ Francis – Frog splash

Genesis 2026
Date: January 17, 2026
Location: Curtis Culwell Center, Garland, Texas
Commentators: Matthew Rehwoldt, Tom Hannifan

It’s the first pay per view of the year and it’s coming off the heels of a less than well received Impact debut on AMC. The main event was made that night, as new World Champion Mike Santana will defend against Frankie Kazarian in a Texas Deathmatch, with Nic Nemeth as guest referee. Granted that announcement didn’t make air, but that’s what social media is for these days. Let’s get to it.

Kickoff Show: International Title: KJ Orso vs. Eric Young vs. BDE vs. Stacks

Stacks, with Arianna Grace, is defending and you might know Orso better as an unmasked Fuego del Sol. Stacks jumps BDE to start fast and Young follows BDE outside. That leaves Orso to take over in the corner, including a slingshot to send Stacks to the floor. We pause for Young to yell at some fans but BDE jumps him from behind. Stacks decks BDE and steals his phone for some live streaming, only for BDE to take Stacks down with a dive.

Orso gets in a knockdown of his own and stops to pose with BDE, with Rehwoldt not being pleased. The villains get hammered in the corner but fight back without too much trouble. BDE forearms his way back and Codebreakers Stacks, much to the fans’ delight. Orso is back up to cutter BDE as a handful of fans try a THIS IS AWESOME chant. The Orso Driver gets two on BDE with Stacks getting back up. BDE’s springboard cutter drops Stacks, only for Young to come back with a neckbreaker. Young piledrives Orso, only for Stacks to toss him outside and steal the retaining pin at 6:22.

Rating: C+. This was pretty by the book, with the ending being about what I was expecting with the story of Stacks having the deck, uh, stacked against him. That’s a fine way to go and this was a perfectly acceptable way to get the fans warmed up. Unfortunately it’s part of the battling authority figures, which doesn’t exactly bode well.

Santino Marella isn’t pleased but Daria Rae comes in to tell him to shut up. If Marella is going to make a match based on emotion, Rae might have to do something similar.

Here is the Personal Concierge to introduce the Elegance Brand, including Mr. Elegance. The Concierge does not think much of the way the fans around here smell. The Brand will not be wrestling tonight, but they will be sitting in the front row for this next match.

Kickoff Show: Indi Hartwell/Vicki Venuto vs. Mila Moore/Tessa Blanchard

The Elegance Brand is at ringside and Robert Stone/Victoria Crawford are here with the villains. Blanchard allows Venuto to grab a headlock to start and doesn’t like how aggressive things get. It’s off to Hartwell for a suplex so Venuto can get two, only to have her get taken into the wrong corner. Moore works on Venuto’s leg and the pace slows way down, with Moore and Blanchard taking turns with knees to said leg.

Back up and Blanchard slaps her in the face in the corner. That’s enough for Venuto to fight out of trouble and bring in Hartwell to clean house. Everything breaks down and Stone offers a distraction, allowing Crawford to crotch Venuto. Hartwell goes after them but gets into it with the Brand, leaving Blanchard to hit the Buzzsaw DDT for the pin at 7:51.

Rating: C-. Not much to this one, as there were so many people floating around and a lot of it was just slow motion work on Venuto’s leg. It doesn’t help that Venuto is brand new and Hartwell is only so good on her best day. Moore has a great look and putting her with Blanchard isn’t a bad idea. I’m curious to see where that winds up going so it’s certainly a start.

And now the show proper.

Romeo Vaughn sings the National Anthem.

The opening video is mainly a recap of the AMC debut, which serves as a preview for the pay per view.

AJ Francis vs. Rich Swann

Swann has to fight out of an early Down Payment attempt and knocks Francis into the corner for some right hands. Francis gets knocked to the floor, where he can’t hit a Down Payment onto the apron. Back in and Swann’s handspring elbow is chopped out of the air and a crossbody is countered into a toss AA to send Swann flying.

Francis knocks him outside again for nine and the frustration is clearly setting in. Swann grabs a jawbreaker so Francis kicks him in the face for two. The chinlock doesn’t last long and Swann fires off his own kicks, setting up a cartwheel splash. A 450 gives Swann two so Francis knocks him down, only for a moonsault to be broken up. Swann bites him in the face to knock Francis back down but Francis Pounces Swann out of the air in a big crash.

Another Down Payment attempt is blocked so Francis grabs a Styles Clash for two more. Somehow Swann is back with a Canadian Destroyer into a splash for two of his own as Francis is in trouble. Another handspring is cut off though and a reverse Down Payment sets up the regular version for the pin on Swann at 12:14.

Rating: C+. This was a good example of a match where they didn’t make things too complicated. Swann wanted to put Francis out and used his speed but couldn’t get around the size and power. That’s a fine way to go as it’s about as classic of a wrestling story as you’ll get. Francis might not be the top star in the company, but he’s good at what he does.

We run down the card.

We look at Mike Santana regaining the World Title.

Mike Santana hopes Frankie Kazarian is coming for the fight of his life, because that’s what Santana is bringing this week. His daughter is glad he’s back and tonight he’ll show why he is the realest to ever do it.

Elijah vs. Mustafa Ali

Order 4 is here with Ali, who is mad that Elijah tied him to a horse and rode away. Elijah takes out the Great Hands to start and goes after Ali, sending him hard into the corner. Ali tries to pick up the pace but walks into a sitout powerbomb for an early two. They go outside with Elijah chopping away before taking out the Great Hands again. This time it’s enough of a distraction for Ali to get in a cheap shot to take over for the first time.

Back in and Ali cranks on the arm but gets leveraged out to the floor. Ali is right back with the rolling neckbreaker and they slug it out until Elijah shrugs off a superkick. One heck of a clothesline drops Ali, followed by a jumping knee for two. Back up and Ali grabs a Death Valley Driver for two of his own but Elijah hits a quick Highwayman’s Farewell.

Ali bridges out before he passes out, which is a bit of a stretch but at least it looked cool. Elijah loads up a super Highwayman’s Farewell but Ali slips out and hits a dropkick. That’s fine with Elijah, who hits a super chokebomb but Special Agent Zero pulls the referee. The Great Hands are ejected as well, leaving Tasha Steelz to grab the guitar. Elijah goes after her but gets guitared in the back by Ali for the pin at 9:35.

Rating: C+. Ali’s push continues and I’m wondering what the next step is for him. It wouldn’t be out of the question to have him move into the main event scene, though I’m not sure I can imagine TNA pulling the trigger in that direction. Elijah fighting against a group of villains isn’t a bad thing, though in theory he’s going to want revenge.

We recap Eddie Edwards vs. JDC. They’re old friends but it’s JDC’s last match and he has requested to face Edwards, who accepted.

JDC vs. Eddie Edwards

They come out at the same time to the same music in a nice touch. JDC (in Terry Funk style tights) tries an early rollup to start fast and Edwards applauds him. They fight over arm control to no avail so it’s time to run the ropes, with JDC hitting a dropkick. The armdrag into an armbar doesn’t last long as Edwards is back up with a clothesline. JDC’s snap powerslam gets two but Edwards catches him with an enziguri on top.

A super hurricanrana sends JDC outside and there’s the required suicide dive. JDC is back up with a drop onto the apron, followed by a nice spinwheel kick back inside to put both of them down. A running boot to the face sends Edwards outside and JDC is back up with a running flip dive to drop him again. Back in and a slingshot legdrop gives JDC two and a Falcon Arrow gets the same.

JDC charges into a Blue Thunder Bomb for two and we hit the chinlock. With that broken up, Edwards dives into a Liontamer, followed by a Codebreaker to give JDC two. They go up top with JDC grabbing a super Air Raid Crash for two more. Edwards is back with the Boston Knee Party for two, setting up the Diehard Driver. Another Boston Knee Party (with JDC telling him to do it) finishes JDC’s career at 17:12.

Rating: B. I’m really not sure what to say here, as the match was good enough, but it was just kind of a match. There was little in the way of heat or anything beyond two friends having a pretty good match. JDC isn’t exactly someone you think of getting a big sendoff, so while it was entertaining, it gets more of a “well, ok then” reaction.

Post match the System comes out to give JDC the big sendoff. JDC thanks the fans and commentary before leaving.

We recap Mara Sade vs. Ryan Nemeth in an intergender match. Well kind of as we’re told there is an issue and then go to the intros. Basically Sade keeps superkicking him, including after Nemeth hit on her.

Ryan Nemeth vs. Mara Sade

Nemeth shoves her into the corner to start and quickly flips her away to escape a sleeper. The threat of a superkick sends Nemeth outside and Sade is right there with a dive. Back in and Nemeth sweeps the leg out so Sade slaps him in the face. Nemeth gyrates a bit and threatens a right hand, earning himself a tornado DDT. Nemeth counters a sunset flip into a rollup and grabs the rope for two, with the referee catching the cheating. Sade goes up but Nemeth dropkicks her down and grabs the rope for the pin at 5:20.

Rating: C-. Uh…ok then. I’m not sure what that was, as Sade got in a bit of offense but then got beaten with a quickly dropkick and some cheating. That’s all there was going on here and it wasn’t even entertaining. This felt like it should have been a big comedy match but instead it just kind of came and went. Weird choice here.

Stacks and Arianna Grace aren’t worried about Santino Marella and tell him to worry about losing his job instead.

Knockouts Title: Zaria vs. Lei Ying Lee

Lee is defending with Zaria serving as a replacement for Dani Luna, who had visa issues, and Sol Ruca/Xia Brookside are here as the seconds. Zaria goes with the power to start but Lee is back with a few kicks. Some choking in the corner drops Lee for two and it’s off to something like a Texas Cloverleaf.

Lee reverses into an STF, which is broken up so Lee strikes her into the corner instead. Some right hands in the corner have Zaria in more trouble but she’s able to block Warrior’s Way. Lee loads up a choke but Zaria reverses into a cannonball into the corner. They head out to the apron to strike it out, with Zaria driving her back first onto said apron.

Cue the Elegance Brand to watch as Zaria hits a spear into an F5, with the referee getting bumped. The Brand runs in so Brookside and Ruca cut them off for a brawl into the back. With them four of them gone, Zaria goes up top but gets caught with a super hurricanrana. They slug it out until another F5 is countered into a DDT. The Warrior’s Way retains the title at 14:23.

Rating: B. They were in a very tough spot here with a cold match (not their fault, as Zaria was a last minute replacement) and managed to turn it into something pretty good. While I usually don’t like all of the shenanigans, it makes sense to have the interference this time, as there was nothing else going on with the match. Zaria needs to win something sooner than later, though a heel turn doesn’t feel crazy either.

Post match Elayna Black comes out to suggest she’s next in line for the title.

Nic Nemeth talks about how his ten count decides who walks away with World Title.

We recap the Righteous challenging the Hardys for the Tag Team Titles. The Righteous came in acting like they were really friendly but it seems they want to take/replace the Hardys. Then they got violent on Impact (including a chain through Jeff’s gauge) to make it a bit more traditional.

Tag Team Titles: Hardys vs. Righteous

The Hardys are defending and pull the Righteous outside to start the brawl on the floor. They fight until Matt and Vincent start things off with Matt taking him down and hammering away. Jeff comes in with a slingshot legdrop and Poetry In Motion makes it worse. Matt adds the Side Effect for two but Dutch grabs him from the apron.

Dutch comes in for some elbows in the corner, setting up Vincent’s running Downward Spiral for two. Matt manages a desperation Twist Of Fate to Dutch, allowing the tag off to Jeff. That means something like a weird reverse full nelson twist (it’s hard to describe), followed by the Plot Twist for two. Dutch trips Matt from the floor though and the villains take over again.

A Twist Of Fate into the Swanton gets two on Jeff, with Matt making the save. Dutch’s apron legdrop to the floor misses Jeff for a big crash, leaving Matt to go after Vincent. Hold on though as Vincent backs away, with Dutch saying this is what they wanted: to hurt. Matt has had enough of this and it’s the Twist Of Fate into the Swanton to finish Vincent and retain at 12:40.

Rating: C+. The Righteous feel like another team of wannabe cult guys and that’s only going to go so far. While they might stick around, this feels like the height of what they’re doing, though odds are we’ll get a violent rematch. At the same time, someone has to take the titles from the Hardys and I have no idea who is supposed to do that at this point.

We look at Leon Slater not being able to win the US Title on Smackdown. Slater can’t be here due to visa issues (fair) but he wants to thank Joe Hendry for taking his place in the triple threat. He’ll defend the title as soon as he can get back.

Joe Hendry vs. Moose vs. Cedric Alexander

Hendry is replacing Slater so it’s just a triple threat with nothing on the line. Moose starts fast to clean house but Hendry snaps off a hurricanrana. Hendry gets knocked outside for a dive from Alexander and Moose is backdropped HARD onto the steps. We pause for the medics to check on Moose, leaving Alexander to roll Hendry up for two. A dropkick to the back of the head keeps Hendry in trouble and a Michinoku Driver gives Alexander another near fall.

Moose is still down and the other two hit stereo clotheslines for a double down. Somehow Moose is able to get up (while holding his back) and takes over on both of them, including quite the chop to Hendry. Moose superplexes Hendry, who rolls through into a suplex, only for Alexander to frog splash Hendry for two. Alexander goes up but Moose chokebombs him back down for two but Hendry’s pop up powerbomb drops Moose for another near fall.

Hendry’s spinning pose lands him in a Death Valley Driver from Alexander, who grabs a crossface for a bonus. With that broken up, Alexander Styles Clashes Moose for two and everyone is down, with the fans approving. Moose spears Alexander for two but his back gives out. That earns him a Lumbar Check from Alexander, only for Hendry to grab the Standing Ovation to pin Alexander at 15:20.

Rating: B. Well that’s a choice. You have the former TNA guy, who has moved on to WWE, come back and show that he can beat two TNA stars at once. I get that Hendry hasn’t been gone from TNA for long and the fans still love him, but maybe don’t have the #1 contender to the X-Division Title get pinned before the title match?

Santino Marella brings out the Kickoff Show panel to make predictions for the main event. Everyone picks Mike Santana and it’s up to Tommy Dreamer but Daria Rae interrupts. Well she’s a hero as far as I’m concerned. Anyway, she says we don’t have time for this so let’s get to the video package.

We recap the main event, with Mike Santana defending the World Title against Frankie Kazarian in a Texas Deathmatch with Nic Nemeth as guest referee. Santana won the title but Kazarian used his Call Your Shot title shot to take it away. Then Santana won it back on Thursday so it’s rubber match time. Nemeth has his own Call Your Shot as well.

TNA World Title: Mike Santana vs. Frankie Kazarian

Santana is defending, Nic Nemeth is guest referee, and it’s a Texas Deathmatch, which is basically Last Man Standing but you have to score a fall before the ten count begins. Kazarian bails to the floor to start but Santana catches him coming back inside with some kicks. A big boot misses though and they fight to the floor, where Santana hits a dive off the steps.

It’s time for a table, but first Santana uses a chair for a step up cannonball against the barricade. The fight heads into the crowd with Kazarian sending him into some walls but a superplex off a balcony is blocked. Instead Santana hits a dive of his own and they fight into a back hall. Kazarian trashcans him in the back and a slam on the floor gets two. They come back to ringside, where Kazarian grabs a suplex but sets up some weapons rather than covering.

Some chairs to the back have Santana in more trouble and the fans tell Kazarian that he’s not overly popular. Fade To Black onto some open chairs is broken up and Santana piledrives him onto the chairs for the pin at 9:32. Kazarian beats the count at nine and he has to fight out of another piledriver from the apron. Santana goes up but the bleeding Kazarian cutters him down through a table at ringside for the pin at 12:04.

Santana beats the count as well so Kazarian knocks him into the steps and grabs a ladder. That takes too long and Santana is back up with a barbed wire baseball bat. A shot to the head makes Kazarian bleed even more and Santana plants him with a Samoan driver. Santana puts him on the table and hits a frog splash from the ladder for…two? Ok then. Santana yells at Nemeth but the replay shows that it was the right call. Back up and Kazarian spits at Santana, who wraps his arm with the barbed wire for Spin The Block. Kazarian is pinned 18:29 and Santana retains at 19:11.

Rating: B-. It was a fine brawl, but Nemeth changed absolutely nothing and Santana has already had his big moment twice now. I get that they wanted the title change for the AMC debut but it sucked the life out of the title change here. It was good enough though and Santana standing tall to end the show is absolutely the right call at the moment.

Post match Nemeth tries to cash in with a Danger Zone but Santana drops him with the Spin The Block. Santana celebrates to end the show.

Overall Rating: B-. They were in a weird spot here and some of the results showed it. The biggest issue was they had their major show two days ago and this show was little more than follow up. It’s not a show that you need to see, but it is miles better than the disaster that was this week’s Impact. The problem though is a lot of the damage has already been done and I’m not sure how they can really make up for it anytime soon. This helped, though it only had so much impact.
