Winner: Taiji Ishimori, by pinfall (gains 2 points; Hiromu earns 0)

The Bone Soldier defuses the Timebomb and has a huge win under his belt! Can Hiromu recover and still have a chance at going back-to-back? As for Taiji, he takes a moment to rest before he gets the mic. “Hiromu. You really are something. I hate to admit it, but damn!” Fans applaud this odd showing of respect Taiji is giving as Hiromu takes his leave. Taiji says he can’t go on some “energetic rant like Hiromu,” but he’ll just say, “The NJPW Junior Division isn’t all about El Desperado and Hiromu Takahashi! I said this before, but once again. Look at me! I will show you strength and greatness! It’s Reborn!” Will Taiji prove this division doesn’t belong to anyone but him?

 

Here are the NEW BOSJ 28 standings!

SHO: 5-1, 10 points
Yoshinobu Kanemaru: 4-2, 8 points
Taiji Ishimori: 4-2, 8 points
Hiromu Takahashi: 3-2-1, 7 points
El Desperado: 3-2-1, 7 points
Ryusuke Taguchi: 3-3, 6 points
Bushi: 3-3, 6 points
YOH: 2-4, 4 points
Master Wato: 2-4, 4 points
El Phantasmo: 2-4, 4 points
Robbie Eagles: 2-4, 4 points
Douki: 2-4, 4 points


My Thoughts:

A great round for the BOSJ, some real great surprises in the results. I thought for sure Kanemaru would keep going but Taguchi gets a win off him in a real good match. Douki using his pipe to fight off the wrench was great, but I had a feeling Sho would still win. Yoh getting another win is great, I still hope they make a big deal out of Yoh VS Sho when we get it. Bushi VS Phantasmo was good, and I like that ELP was playing it up that he got “it” back in his boot. But I find it interesting that he hesitated to use Sudden Death just to try and use Kenny Omega’s moves. I wonder if that was just to keep ELP from winning and keep him near the bottom.

I wasn’t surprised by Desperado winning, just in how he won. I didn’t think he’d win with just his signature pin, but that was quite the shocker. And then Taiji VS Hiromu was awesome stuff, and I didn’t think Taiji would get the win here. That’s big stuff for Taiji and the tournament. Taiji’s in the top three, he could make a run for the top. Desperado VS Kanemaru is next round, too, that will be a very interesting one.

My Score: 8.9/10

Coverage

Andrew’s TNA iMPACT! Results & Match Ratings: 4.3.2025

The first episode under the new regime, let’s see how bad it is.

Published

on

Well this is the first episode with the new regime, and I’m not looking forward to it. I’m expecting a car crash, because Delirious is worthless, Dreamer is hit or miss at the best, and no one else has a proven track record at having a brain. So I expect pure garbage.

Let’s see if I get surprised!

Ratings:

  • #1 Contender Match: Elijah vs Frankie Kazarian: Kaz wins via Cradle – N/A
  • Spitfire vs Jakara Jackson & Lash Legend: Jakara wins via M-KO – ** 1/2
  • Hardy Boyz vs Great Hands w/Tasha Steelz: Jeff wins via Swanton Bomb – ** 1/4
  • Tessa Blanchard, Jacy Jayne, Jazmyn Nyx w/Fallon Henley vs Lei Ying Lee, Xia Brookside & Masha Slamovich: Tessa wins via Buzzsaw DDT – ***

 

Results:

We lead off with Joe Hendry music because he’s on commentary during the Elijah versus Kaz match.

#1 Contender Match: Elijah vs Frankie Kazarian

We start off with Kaz sticking and moving to dodge Elijah, but he eventually catches him and goes to the Rope Walk quickly and pulls it off. Elijah tries to go into a Piledriver or something but Kaz slips it and pulls down Elijah with the slip. They go to the outside, Kaz throws Elijah into the post, then slaps Hendry, shoving match starts, Kaz charges and Hendry lifts but Kaz slips out the back and shoves Hendry into Elijah…the ref lets it slide. So Kaz throws in Elijah and a quick cradle gives Kaz the opportunistic win.

Post Match Hendry just goes crazy on Kaz, security pull apart spot, even Elijah pulls off Hendry and calms him down. Elijah playing the long game, not even arguing that Hendry cost him. The match didn’t have enough substance to rate, it was purely a plot device and a little convoluted. 

Backstage segment of Hendry with the Doctor, Hendry apparently messed up his shoulder in the scuffle…so…that’s something. 

System Ultimatum time is next. The crowd is booing the hell out of Eddie, and it’s a real reaction not go away heat or anything, Eddie plays in it well enough. Lish leads the way and wants to do the Planteer pose, but the rest just walk past her and she seems annoyed, while these others seem somber. This was going the way we expected with everyone sticking around. We finally get to Moose and doofus Deaner’s music hits. Deaner tries to get the crowd to rally around Moose resigning from The System. Moose says the People are right, but then beats the hell out of Deaner. They do the Planeteer pose over the corpse of Deaner. Hopefully we never see that dork again, just let him go be a jobber in Maple Leaf Pro. 

Spitfire vs Jakara Jackson & Lash Legend

Jakara starts with Dani, a quick tie up, but Jakara strikes out of it, Arm Drag sends Dani flying, but Dani stops Jakara’s next attempts at offense, tags in Jody and a tandem moment rocks Jakara. Jody tags back out and Lash tags in, so it’s power and booty versus power and booty. Shoulder Tackle spot and Lash gets the best of it, Dani holds on to the ropes to stop the Whip recoil, Jody with the blind tag, they try to team up but Lash fights out of both. Jody goes Spider Monkey and tries to choke out Lash but Lash just walks her back to Jakara and tags out. Jakara is rolling until Jody holds the ropes and watches Jakara crash and burn on a Dropkick. Probably the best I’ve seen that spot in a long time. Dani tags in, they try the Scoop Slam tandem attack on Jakara, but Jakara moves and Dani just slams Jody into the mat.

Lash gets tagged in and starts to maul Dani. A little rotating offense keeping Dani isolated. Dani tries to find an opening but she’s eating move after move, they go for the Tandem Wheelbarrow Slam, but Dani gets the knees up. Dani finally gets a chance to tag out, Jody starts working over both Lash and Jakara. Stacks them in the corner to do her 10 Count Lariats, Exploder Suplex into rope hung Double Knees. Jody wants the German but Lash tries to stop it. Jody fights off Lash, manages a Stalling Jackhammer on Jakara, but Lash does manage to break up the pin. All four are in the ring, Dani gets tosses, Straight Right from Lash clocks Jody. Jakara flies to wipe out Dani, they look for the M-KO but Jody fights it off. Jody throwing Chops on both, it starts to look stupid, Jody tries to fire and Lash wants to clock her with the Forearm during the stall but hits Jakara.

Crossbody from Jody, Lash catches her, M-KO. Meta Girls win.

Oh great more talking, now the Hardyz are out to talk and Matt gives a decent but basic promo that goes into a bit of Broken just for the cheap pop. Jeff pokes fun at the “best brother tag team” joke from last week. If they weren’t The Hardyz the crowd wouldn’t care. Oh speaking of not caring, the Great Hands and snackalicious Tasha Steelz interrupt. Great Hands want to fight, Hardyz are okay with it of course, then Santino comes out. He says after the commercial Great Hams vs Hard Boys is on! 

Hardy Boyz vs Great Hands w/Tasha Steelz

Hotch is getting worked over by both Hardys, a little classic tandem offense, an early pinfall, but Hotch claws the eyes and tags in Skyler. Skyler’s advantage last like 12 seconds, he tags Jeff, Rocket Launcher into the middle rope with a Leg Drop from Jeff. Jeff tries to Whisper in the Wind in the opposition corner like a dumbass, so Hotch crotches him, the Hands do the double crotch stomp as Jeff is in the Tree of Woe. Assisted offense, they try to perch Jeff, but Jeff fights them off and pulls off the best Whisper in a minute. Matt gets the hot tag, Scoop Slams, Delete Headsmashes, and a Side Effect on Hotch for fun. Matt wants the Twist on Skyler, Skyler counters, Jeff tags in, Poetry in Motion, Side Effect on Skyler and only a near fall.

Twist of Hate attempt, Hotch breaks it up, Matt takes out Hotch, Skyler almost pulls off the Flash upset with the Cradle. Plot Twist, Swanton, and Jeff wins.

Ryan Nemeth is in the back watching the match, has a few snarky things to say while wearing an LA Sparks jersey, Leon Slater and his lack of charisma in Birmingham accent shows up. Hates the WNBA obviously since he tries to push Ryan out of camera frame, and then they’ll prolly have a match at some point. At least Ryan has a gimmick that’s been amusing, but God is Leon Slater useless. 

THEY HAVE AN INJURY REPORT SEGMENT – that’s soo damn corny. Never do this again, this is dumb as hell. 

Oh great, more talking…SDL and Mance Warner. Where’s Keenan when I need someone to scream “WHY!?!”

This promo is complete shit, they even invent a bad magazine called TNA Weekly for this dumb thing. I hate this, and not in the “I wanna see them get beat up good heel work way”, I hate them because they’re useless, uninteresting and just saying dumb crap. When Santino comes out and effectively calls them stupid and cringe…that’s kind of a problem when the comedy character calls you dumb. THEY ARE REBRANDING THE BELT AGAIN! International Championship…ugh. Sami comes out to beat up Mance while Santino tries to wrestle the belt away from Steph. This is just cringe. 

Mustafa Ali is doing great work. I’m a little mad this promo was buried in this awful episode. 

Tessa Blanchard, Jacy Jayne, Jazmyn Nyx w/Fallon Henley vs Lei Ying Lee, Xia Brookside & Masha Slamovich

Tessa and Masha start, Masha shoots the half, rains down fists, Tessa kicks her off but Masha keeps up the aggression and forces Tessa to powder. Fatal Influence tries to come in, Xia and Lei dispatch them, Dual Baseball Slide take out the NXT girls, and a Middle Rope Plancha from Masha takes out Tessa as we go to commercial.

Back from commercial Lei Ying has Jacy in a grounded Arm Bar. A little hair pull makes Lei stand up, but she drops Jacy flat after a Round Kick, Low Sweep and then a Running Knee as she’s getting back up. A corner Down Strike has Lei rolling, but a blind tag from Jazmyn catches Lei by surprise and then she gets trapped in the heel corner. The Fatal Influence gals rotate in and out, all 3 take cheap shots, PK into a Senton for a near fall. Lei finally fights off the onslaught and gets Xia in. Xia is very fiery and angry, and now Jazmyn is getting her ass beat. Rosemary is in the audience to distract Xia a little but Xia still connects with Broken Wings and a near fall. Xia gets tripped up on the apron, Jacy gets tagged in and a PK drops Xia on the outside. Hard Irish Whip back in the ring and Cannonball from Jacy has Xia down and out. Jazmyn tags back in, and Xia tries to fire up, Monkey Flip but pulled away by Jacy, Xia tags out, Masha takes out both Fatal Influence members, goes for a pinfall but Tessa runs in with a head of steam to break the pinfall. All six are in for Signature spam spot. Spinning Heel kick from Masha, Fallon distracts on the outside, and Tessa takes advantage of all the chaos, Buzzsaw DDT and Tessa gets the pinfall victory.

Ethan Page interrupts Kaz’s promo at the end of the show. Claiming he should have the title shot since he pinned Joe in NXT. So the Rebellion match is Ethan Page versus Joe Hendry. 

 

Overall Score: 1/10

The one point is for Mustafa’s promo and the main even being decent. But this was awful. Too much talking, an “Injury Report” like this is a real situation and not scripted, which is insulting, and YET AGAIN, a new name for the lower card title. Jesus Christ, stop renaming the damn belt. Legends/TV/King of the Mountain/Grand/Digital Media/International… just stop it. Stick to a name or stop doing a lower card belt. Also really lame that they keep trying to push Cardona as something important.

Kaz and Elijah’s thing is a stupid angle, The System firing was a giant cock tease and who the hell gives Eddie the power to call everyone to task? Mance and SDL are the worst thing on this show after Deaner’s existence. SDL has been a plague on TNA programming since wasting time with her “needs neck surgery” promo instead of a match. I do truly feel bad for Mustafa Ali’s promo being stuck on this pile of crap.

This was an episode that should’ve been an e-mail. Garbage effort, garbage stories, just straight up a waste of two hours. Even with the Ethan Page appearance, this episode was still worthless. Is it sad to say, I expected nothing and am still disappointed by this episode? Ugh… LOLTNA…
