TNA iMPACT Results
TNA iMPACT starts now!
BDE vs. Eddie Edwards
- The finish of the match saw Eddie Edwards hit BDE with a Boston Knee Party for the win.
Winner: Eddie Edwards
The System jumps BDE after the match. Fabian Aichner runs out and attempts to clear the ring but falls victim to the faction’s numbers game. Leon Slater then arrives to even the odds, helping BDE and Aichner fend off The System. Slater caps off the save with his signature dive to the outside before re-entering the ring to celebrate with the babyfaces.
Grade: B-
The belly-to-belly suplex from the turnbuckle was the spot of the match. I like how TNA is slowly building up BDE by putting him in the ring with veterans like Nic Nemeth and now Eddie Edwards. It’s a smart way to showcase his potential while giving him valuable experience against established names. The post-match attack also featured a fun moment, with Bear Bronson eating superkicks from BDE, Fabian Aichner, and Leon Slater before the babyfaces stood tall.
Wicked Garden Promo
A promo for Hardys vs. Righteous airs.
AJ Francis musical performance
AJ Francis is in the ring. Francis reflects on his weight-loss journey before saying he shed nearly 300 pounds when he got rid of the dead weight that was Rich Swann and KC Navarro from FIR$T CLA$$. He then references music legends such as The Beatles and prepares the crowd for a performance of his own. Francis begins rapping and takes a jab at Elijah, but another guitar riff suddenly echoes throughout the arena as Elijah appears on the stage.
Elijah questions why Francis photoshopped his head onto Elijah’s body. Francis denies any wrongdoing and hands Elijah a cease-and-desist letter. He also references Elijah’s former Ezekiel gimmick and claims that he owns Elijah’s music catalogue. Elijah fires back with a diss of his own, calling Francis “Uncle Phil.” He then attempts to begin a musical performance but is cut off when Francis strikes him with a microphone. As Francis walks away, Elijah is left bleeding from his forehead, with blood dripping onto the cease-and-desist letter.
Indi Hartwell and Santino Marella are shown preparing for their upcoming mixed tag team match against Arianna Grace and Stacks when they are interrupted by Daria Rae. Daria brings up Hartwell’s contract status with TNA Wrestling. The discussion quickly creates tension, with neither Hartwell nor Marella appearing pleased by what Rae has to say.
We hear from Elayna Black
Elayna Black boasts about her performance in last week’s Knockouts Champions Challenge on TNA iMPACT! She references her previous outing against Indi Hartwell, which ended in a no contest, and says it only reinforced her belief that she belongs at the top of the division. Black then vows to become the next Knockouts World Champion.
Santino Marella and Indi Hartwell vs. Stacks and Arianna Grace
- The finish of the match saw Santino and Indi perform a double Cobra on Stacks and Arianna before Marella pinned Stacks for the win.
Winners: Santino Marella and Indi Hartwell
Grade: B+
I have to bring up the huge pop Santino Marella received at WWE Clash in Italy. As for the match itself, the double Cobra spot was hilarious and got exactly the reaction it was supposed to. With Arianna Grace and Stacks seemingly behind him, Marella can now turn his attention to his ongoing power struggle with Daria Rae. Then again, in wrestling, are things ever really over?
The Undead Realm strikes again
The Elegance Brand are shown in their room when they are confronted by Mara Sade, Rosemary, and Allie.
Eric Young and Mike Santana segment
Eric Young is in the ring. Young takes credit for getting rid of Joe Hendry, Ricky Sosa and EC3 before calling out Mike Santana and vowing to become TNA World Champion. Santana then appears to confront his challenger, taking his time entering the ring while hyping up the Sacramento crowd. Santana calls Young a bitter man trying to become relevant, adding that he hasn’t been relevant in 15 years.
Young responds by saying he has been in TNA the longest and has seen wrestlers come and go. Santana fires back, saying that doesn’t mean Young gets to do things his way. Young promises to hit a piledriver on Santana and reclaim the TNA World Championship, claiming Santana is only a “shiny toy” whose shine will wear off as the fans eventually turn on him.
Santana says they don’t have to wait until next week for their match. As Santana is distracted by the crowd, Young delivers a low blow and follows up with a piledriver on the champion. The segment ends with Young standing over Santana and holding the TNA World Title.
Injury Update on Elijah
According to TNA, Elijah suffered a laceration after being struck in the ear by AJ Francis with a microphone. The report noted that Elijah received medical attention and will not be required to miss any time in action.
Mustafa Ali Promo
Mustafa Ali complains about being pinned by KC Navarro in their Champions Challenge match last week on TNA iMPACT. Ali promises to retain his International Championship against the “pink-haired freak.” The promo ends with Ali teasing growing tension with Tasha Steelz.
Lei Ying Lee vs. Mr. Elegance
- The finish of the match saw Mr. Elegance take advantage of a distraction from Xia Brookside to hit his finisher on Lei Ying Lee for the win.
Winner: Mr. Elegance
Xia Brookside gets inside the ring and reveals that she will challenge Lei Ying Lee for the Knockouts World Championship at TNA Slammiversary.
Grade: C+
I was not expecting Mr. Elegance to bust out the Devil’s Kiss mid-match. If only we had Booker T’s sound effect for that spot. Xia Brookside was horrible on commentary; I just can’t take her seriously as a heel. I also have one question: does Mr. Elegance get a Knockouts World Championship shot now that he has pinned Lei Ying Lee?
The Hardys vs. The Righteous – Wicked Garden Match
The Righteous make their entrance for the TNA iMPACT main event.
The Broken Hardys have arrived.
The Wicked Garden claims its first victim.
Brother Nero takes some punishment.
WHAT. THE. HELL!?
- The finish of the match saw The Righteous hit Matt Hardy with their tag team finisher, Orange Sunshine, for the win.
While The Righteous are celebrating their win, the lights suddenly go out. When they come back on, The Hardys are nowhere to be seen. The show ends with Tom Hannifan stating that “what was broken has faded away.”
Grade: A-
This match must be commended for the visuals it brought to the ring, with the ropes covered in flowers and barbed wire, though I must admit I’m not a fan of barbed wire as a foreign object. Jeff Hardy foaming at the mouth after getting a lily forced into it is one of the more disturbing visuals I’ve seen on professional wrestling television in 2026. The cliffhanger ending raises a lot of questions: Where did The Hardys go? Is this the end for Matt and Jeff as we know them? Why did Vincent and Dutch look puzzled upon realizing The Hardys were nowhere to be found, even though they were the ones who forced them into becoming “Broken” in the first place? Let’s see if TNA addresses the conclusion to this Wicked Garden match next Thursday.
Overall Grade: B-
Tonight’s episode was largely a miss in my opinion, with the exception of the main event. After a decent start to the show with BDE vs. Eddie Edwards, we got an underwhelming musical performance from AJ Francis that left Elijah bleeding from the ear. The finish to Marella and Hartwell vs. Stacks and Arianna Grace was entertaining. Eric Young might have the best piledriver on the TNA roster at the moment. I never had high hopes for Lei Ying Lee vs. Mr. Elegance. On a side note, Xia Brookside still sucks. As for the main event, it was wicked in all sorts of ways, with Jeff getting his hair entangled in barbed wire among other crazy spots. That’s it for tonight, and this writer will be back with more coverage next week.
