Writer: Carlos AstorgaCarlos Astorga

The go-home edition of TNA Impact ahead of Friday’s Sacrifice streaming special will feature a TNA World title defense by Joe Hendry.


However, Hendry doesn’t know his opponent a day before he will be part of a ten-match steel cage match.


Knockouts Champion Masha Slamovich will team with Lei Ying Lee against top challenger and NXT star Cora Jade and former TNA World Champion Tessa Blanchard.


Eddie Edwards vs. Leon Slater will determine who gets the man advantage in the aforementioned cage match.


Before they meet at Sacrifice, Mike Santana and former X-Division Champion Mustafa Ali will meet face-to-face for a summit.


The main card will be rounded out by NXT’s Wes Lee vs. Laredo Kid, Xia Brookside vs. Rosemary, and JDC vs. Cody Deaner.


Eddie Edwards (w/ Alisha Edwards) defeated Leon Slater in a TNA Sacrifice Advantage Match


After the usual recap video package for last week’s show, the “Cross the Line” theme and intro video plays to get things started as always. Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt welcome us to the show as the camera shot settles inside the Impact Zone at Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida.


The System’s theme music hits and out comes the group to accompany Eddie Edwards onto the stage. They wish him well and head to the back. Edwards heads to the ring accompanied by Alisha Edwards and settles inside the squared circle for the opening match of the evening.


Leon Slater’s entrance tune hits and out comes the young talented prospect accompanied by his team for the TNA Sacrifice 2025 pay-per-view steel cage main event match on Friday night in El Paso, TX. They head to the back and Slater makes his way to the ring by himself.


As soon as Slater hits the ring, while still in his entrance gear and with his music still playing, Edwards tries to get the early jump. It backfires, however, as Slater sees it coming and counters. Slater jumps off to an early offensive lead in this TNA Sacrifice Advantage Match.


Slater hits a hurricanrana that sends Edwards sailing through the ropes, where he crashes and burns on the floor at ringside. On the floor, Edwards takes over and sends Slater crashing shoulder-first into the steel steps with authority. Back inside the ring, Edwards enjoys several minutes of offensive control.


The show heads into a mid-match commercial break as Edwards remains in a comfortable offensive lead. When the show returns, Slater fights back, but Edwards cuts his comeback short and hits a Blue Thunder Bomb for a close two-count.


Slater amps up for another comeback attempt, but again Edwards cuts it short. He sends Slater shoulder-first into the ring post from inside the ring, and then follows up by flattening Slater with his Boston Knee Party finisher for the win.


With the victory, Edwards has secured the advantage in the Steel Cage main event of TNA Sacrifice 2025 on Friday night. After the match, Hannifan and Rehwoldt run down matches still to come, and then the show heads into another commercial time out.


Mance Warner & Steph De Lander Taunt Sami Callihan


The show returns to Sami Callihan talking directly into the camera in fired-up fashion, ranting about how Mance Warner is lucky that Santino Marella put a no physicality clause ahead of their TNA Sacrifice match.


As Callihan continues to rant, he is blatantly taunted by Steph De Lander and Warner, who appear next to him and push and shove him, daring him to do something about it. Callihan again reminds Warner it’s only one more day.


Wes Lee defeated Laredo Kid


Back inside the Impact Zone, the familiar sounds of Wes Lee’s theme music hits and out comes the WWE NXT Superstar. He settles inside the squared circle while Tyson Dupont and Tyriek Igwe hang out at ringside. Lee’s opponent, masked fan-favorite high-flyer Laredo Kid, makes his way out next.


The bell sounds and things get underway. Kid isolates Lee’s arm early on and cranks away at it. Lee flips and escapes, and then rolls out to the floor to re-group. As he does, Kid tries to baseball slide him, but he side-steps him and rolls back in the ring.


In the ring, Kid shoulder-blocks Lee down to the mat, hits the ropes and then hits a hurricanrana that sends Lee right back out to the floor. Kid leaps to the ring apron, back-kicks Lee and then springboards off the middle rope with a moonsault splash onto Lee on the floor.


Kid whacks Lee with an open-handed palm strike to the chest. He heads to the top-rope and leaps off, connecting with a picture-perfect cross-body splash for a close two-count. Lee catches Kid with a kick and takes over. He snarls in a tight close-up camera shot and then goes to work on Kid in the corner.


Lee hits a big brainbuster for a two-count. Kid fights back into competitive form, but ultimately Lee takes over and finishes him off with a Cardiac Kick. Afterwards, The Rascalz and Ace Austin come out and vow to close the chapter and send them back to NXT. “Smoke ’em if you got ’em! See you tomorrow night!”


Santino Marella Makes TNA Sacrifice Announcement


When the show returns, Spitfire come up complaining to Santino Marella. Also bugging the Director of Authority is Ash and Heather by Elegance and George Iceman.


The shot-caller for TNA announces a three-on-two match for TNA Sacrifice 2025 where Ash & Heather By Elegance and George Iceman take on Spitfire duo Jody Threat and Dani Luna. Iceman freaks out that he has to wrestle.


Xia Brookside defeated Rosemary via Disqualification


Inside the Impact Zone, the theme for Xia Brookside hits and out comes the TNA Knockout for the next match of the evening. The lights go down and up come the dark red lights. Rosemary makes her way out and heads to the ring, creepy-crawling into the camera before the match gets underway.


As soon as the bell sounds, Rosemary bull-rushes Brookside into the corner by the face. Brookside fights her way free and dropkicks Rosemary. Brookside comes off the ropes with a bit of a Kangaroo Kick, babyface-MJF style. Brookside goes for a suplex, but Rosemary blocks it and grabs her by the throat.


Rosemary sends Brookside into the ropes with a push of the throat, and then slams her down by the throat before unloading on her with ground and pound. Rosemary controls the action for a few more minutes, but then Brookside starts to fight her way back.


She hits her finisher in the corner, but only gets two. She goes for another big spot, and then grabs Rosemary’s foreign object. She takes a good, long look at it while contemplating using it.


Ultimately, she doesn’t get the chance, as Rosemary sprays the green poison mist in her eyes and the referee calls for the bell. Brookside screams in pain while touching her eyes. Brookside is declared the winner via disqualification. The show heads into another commercial break.


Steve Maclin & Eric Young Have A Drink And A Chat


When the show returns, we hear some depressing music and in a music video fashion, we see Steve Maclin drinking by a campfire. As the video continues, the music stops and we see Eric Young is sitting next to him drinking with him.


Maclin says he already made his position clear about where they stand. He says they respect each other but they’ve got their own paths. Young asks what happens when those paths inevitably meet and they have to make a decision.


JDC defeated Cody Deaner


Back inside the Impact Zone, JDC’s theme hits and The System member makes his way to the ring for the next match of the evening. He settles inside and his music dies down.


Cody Deaner’s entrance tune hits and out he comes with a microphone in-hand. He talks about how he feels great to be here. He says he’s a proud father of multiple kids. He says his professional life wasn’t going so well.


He decided to put his fate in the hands of the people, and since that time, he’s had the best time of his life. He says now he’s about to have fun beating the crap out of a member of The System.


JDC gets on the microphone and assures Deaner that these people don’t care about his children. The fans cut him off with a loud “Yes we do! Yes we do!” chant. JDC says all he cares about is his match at TNA Sacrifice tomorrow.


He tells Deaner to step through the ropes, hop off the ring apron and take the loss like a man. “Be a man, don’t be a disappointment to your children for the rest of your life,” JDC says, before shoving Deaner, GUNTHER-bully style.


Deaner teases exiting the ring, but stops and says the choice isn’t his or JDC’s. It’s the people’s choice. He asks the people if he should just leave and let the referee count him out, or should he stay and “punch this jerk in the face ten times!”


He tells JDC the people have spoken and then clocks him in the face with a punch. The bell sounds and things continue from there. Deaner climbs up on JDC and tries delivering on his ten-punch-promise, but he only got to four before JDC countered and took over.


Deaner started to fight back, but JDC stuck him with a cheap-shot thumb to the eye. He followed that up with his Falcon Arrow finisher for the pinfall victory. After the match, the show heads into another commercial break.


Tessa Blanchard & Cora Jade defeated Masha Slamovich & Lei Ying Lee


When the show returns, Arianna Grace is making her way to the commentary desk, where she will join Hannifan and Rehwoldt on the call for the next match of the evening, which will be a TNA Knockouts tag-team tilt.


Tessa Blanchard’s theme hits and out she comes to the ring. She settles inside and then the entrance tune for her tag-team partner, WWE NXT Superstar Cora Jade, hits. After the heel duo settle inside the squared circle, the music hits to cue their opposition.


Out first to the ring comes Lei Ying Lee. She settles in the ring as Hannifan talks about the new plans and pricing for the company’s TNA+ streaming subscription service. Lee’s partner, reigning TNA Knockouts Champion Masha Slamovich, makes her way out next.


The bell sounds to get things started. All four women stare each other down from opposite sides of the ring. Slamovich kicks things off for her team. It looks like Jade will do the same for hers, but she decides against it, opting instead to tag in Blanchard.


Blanchard and Slamovich go face-to-face and Blanchard pie-faces her to gasps from the crowd. Slamovich fights back and hits a dropkick. She puts her down again and then dares Jade to tag in. Blanchard tags her and Jade hesitantly comes in as fans chant “Masha’s gonna kill you!”


Jade dares Lee to tag in. Slamovich reaches back and tags her in. Lee comes in and goes right to work on Jade, blasting her with an assortment of kicks. She climbs up her in the corner and hits the multiple-punch sequence. She slams her down and covers her, but only gets two.


Jade takes advantage of some confusion in the ring and hits a gut-wrench on Lee for a two-count of her own. She tags in Blanchard and the fans boo as she goes to work on Lee. Blanchard hits her Magnum finisher off the top but Slamovich prevents things from ending there.


Lee and Jade brawl on the floor, while Slamovich and Blanchard, both looking beat up and tired, trade shots in the ring. Slamovich hoists Blanchard onto her back, but Blanchard rakes at her eyes to escape. Blanchard goes for a move, but Lee hits the ring and blasts her with Thunderstruck.


Jade then comes in and blatantly hits Slamovich with the title belt. The referee didn’t see it. Blanchard follows up with Buzzsaw and covers her for the pinfall victory. After the match, the show heads into another commercial break.


Summit With Mustafa Ali & Mike Santana


The show returns to the advertised Summit with Mustafa Ali and Mike Santana. Santana apologizes for being late after finally showing up and taking a seat, while The Great Hands and Tasha Steelz stand behind him. Tom Hannifan sits in between Ali and Santana and asks questions.


Hannifan asks Ali first about why he chose to have an issue with Santana upon returning to TNA. Ali says it isn’t about having an issue with Santana. He’s here to be the leader TNA needs. He can handle the pressure. He says Mr. Santana can’t handle the pressure.


Santana finally speaks up and is baffled that Ali says something like he can’t handle pressure. He goes on for the 100th time about his rough past and all that he’s overcome. He says he’s had nothing but pressure since joining TNA. He says he felt plenty of pressure taking out The System by himself.


He says he also felt a lot of pressure at TNA Genesis when he faced one of the toughest men of his career and made him say “I Quit.” Hannifan points out to Ali that no one has defeated Santana in singles action in over six months. Ali says that’s a good point, but then tells Santana what he described is not pressure.


Ali tells Santana that pressure is failing and dusting yourself off and coming back to take over. He says pressure is having the camera men, the medical people in the back and all of the other staff depend on you. He says Santana isn’t a leader, he’s an addict. Santana tells Ali “you’re full of sh*t.”


Santana asks Ali if he thinks he’s not on to him, or if the people in the locker room haven’t caught on to his true intentions as well. He says no one thinks he’s really here for the betterment of TNA. He says even his people standing behind him sees it.


He tells him he accepted the reality that he’s an addict a long time ago, but today, he’s an addict for these people, for this company and for the people in it. He says for every addict out there, he’s shown them it’s possible to hit the bottom and rise.


Ali says he feels too more tension here. He says everyone needs to calm down. He picks up a bottle of wine and says, “and maybe take a drink.” Santana didn’t like that. Ali tells Santana at TNA Sacrifice, he will lose. He says he’s gonna pray for mercy, and then he’s gonna take one sip and finish the bottle.


And another one, and another one, and then he’s gonna let everyone he just mentioned down, including himself. But worse, he’s gonna break his daughters heart. As soon as Ali said that, Santana launched across the table and attacked him. He beat down his goons and even drew his hand back at Tasha.


He restrained himself, however, and ended up getting jumped by Ali and The Great Hands. They put the boots to him until Ali yells, “Enough!” He then opens the wine and pours a glass. He sits it next to Santana and tells him, “That’s for when you wake up.” He walks off. Santana comes to and sees the drink. He hits it. The show heads into another commercial break.


Joe Hendry (c) defeated Ryan Nemeth to retain the TNA World Championship


It’s main event time — Part 1!


But first, when the show returns, Hannifan and Rehwoldt run down the updated lineup for Friday’s TNA Sacrifice 2025 special event. Added to the lineup is Frankie Kazarian vs. Steve Maclin, as well as First Class duo AJ Francis & KC Navarro against the team of Laredo Kid & Octagon Jr.


Kazarian found out about his match as he joined Hannifan and Rehwoldt, uninvited, to be part of the call for the upcoming main event title tilt. After he freaks out about the news, he takes a seat and gets ready for the final match of the evening.


The familiar sounds of Joe Hendry’s theme hits the house speakers inside Full Sail University and out comes the TNA World Champion for his latest title defense against a yet-to-be-announced opponent. Santino Marella comes out and says he has an opponent for Hendry.


Before he can continue, Ryan Nemeth’s theme hits and out comes “The Hollywood Hunk.” He gets on the microphone and says his big brother returns in one day. He also says his big brother has given him his contracted title rematch as a former champion.


He heads to the ring, the bell sounds, Hendry hits Standing Ovation and covers him for the easy victory to retain his TNA World Championship in mere seconds.


Joe Hendry (c) defeated Hammerstone to retain the TNA World Championship


It’s main event time — Part 2!


In the ring, Hendry pops up after pinning Nemeth for his successful title defense. Santino Marella comes back out and apologizes for Nemeth doing that. He says he wasn’t really the opponent he had planned for Hendry. He asks Hendry if he wouldn’t mind working again.


With that said, the TNA Director of Authority reveals the real title challenger for the TNA World Champion, and out comes Hammerstone. Hannifan points out on commentary that Hammerstone hasn’t been seen on the scene in TNA for months.


As he heads to the ring, the show heads to a quick pre-match commercial break. When the show returns, the bell sounds and things get officially off-and-running. Hendry takes the early offensive lead on Hammerstone, who the commentators joke has gotten even bigger since he was last around.


Hendry goes to hook Hammerstone and hoist him up for his stalled suplex spot, but Hammerstone blocks it and sends the TNA World Champion sailing into the ring post, before he crashes and burns on the floor at ringside. Hammerstone heads out after him and adds some more punishment to Hendry at ringside.


After Hammerstone beats Hendry down some more on the floor, the show heads into a mid-match commercial break with the champion still very much on the defensive, and the muscled up challenger in a definitive offensive lead.


When the show returns from the final time out of the evening, Hendry is shown starting to fight back into competitive form as the crowd inside the Impact Zone begin loudly rallying behind him. Hendry hoists Hammerstone up and this time connects with his trademark stalled suplex spot.


Hendry hits a Fall Away slam and then does the big dramatic head-turn for a big pop. He does the stomp-stomp clap routine, leading the fans in the “We Will Rock You” themed rallying cry, as he looks to try and finish off the big man.


Hendry hoists Hammerstone over his shoulders, but Hammerstone escapes and hits a German suplex. He picks Hendry up and power bombs him into the mat with authority for a close two-count. He transitions into a Boston Crab and cranks back on the lower back of the champ.


Kazarian complains about the voice of the lady behind him at the commentary desk. Hammerstone looks to hoist Hendry up, but Hendry counters and hits a big back-suplex. He hoists Hammerstone up onto his shoulders. He launches him up high and slams him down.


He grabs Hammerstone by the throat and lifts him up for his Standing Ovation finisher. He follows up with the immediate cover for the pinfall victory and his second successful title defense of the evening. The System and The Colons hit the ring to attack Hendry afterwards.


The theme for The Hardy Boyz hits and out comes the TNA World Tag-Team Champions Jeff Hardy and Matt Hardy, with Leon Slater and Elijah behind them. Everyone brawls in and around the ring. Hannifan wraps things up by saying, “tomorrow night will be carnage at TNA Sacrifice!”
