PLAY BY PLAY

Amale VS Nina Samuels!

The French Hope got cheated by Jinny, but she won’t let the self-professed Leading Lady use that to mock the fans who support her. Will Amale take that spotlight away from Nina again? Or will this be a Nina Samuels Show exclusive?

The bell rings and the two circle. They tie up, Amale shoves Nina away, and the two go again. They break again, Nina talks trash then throws a forearm. Amale hits back, then again and again! Amale whips, Nina reverses, but Amale stops herself in the corner to elbow Nina back. Amale whips, Nina reverses but Male dodges to run Nina over! Amale keeps moving, Nina hurdles then hip tosses Amale down! But Amale kicks Nina away, wrenches the arm and YANKS on it. Amale wrenches to a wristlock, Nina cartwheels through, but Amale blocks the throw to throw Nina! Amale elbows Nina again, then brings her into underhooks, BUTTERFLY SUPLEX!

Nina gets to a corner, Amale runs in, but Nina avoids the boot! Amale goes to the apron, Nina yanks the skirt to trip her up! Nina stomps Amale down, the ring count starts, and Nina SMACKS Amale off the apron. Nina puts Amale in at 6 of 10, covers, ONE! Nina is frustrated and she stomps Amale over and over. Nina drags Amale up, Amale throws body shots. Nina knees low, whips, but Amale holds ropes. Nina runs into a BOOT! Amale puts Nina on the apron, Nina ROUNDHOUSES back! Slingshot SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Amale survives and Nina is losing her cool. Nina dribbles Amale off the mat!

Nina digs Amale’s face into the mat, then brings her up to snapmare. Nina wraps on a chinlock and grinds Amale down. Amale endures as Nina leans on the hold. Amale fights up, throws body shots, but Nina throws her down by her hair! Cover, TWO! Nina wraps on a chinlock again and squeezes Amale. Amale endures, fights up, and throws body shots. Amale shoves Nina away, dodges her clothesline to clothesline back! Amale rallies with more lariats, then kicks out a leg to run and KNEE LIFT! Nina staggers, into another LARIAT! SENTON! Cover, TWO! Nina sputters, Amale drags her up.

Nina fights off the clinch then scoops to BACKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Nina is furious and she stomps away on Amale at the ropes! The ref counts., Nina lets off and run sin, but Amale dodges the boot! Then sweeps the leg! Side to side, BOOT WASH! Amale drags Nina up and reels her in, HOPE BREAKER! Cover, Amale wins!

Winner: Amale, by pinfall

The French Hope gets back up with this win here! Will she go after the Fierce Fashionista for another round?

A-Kid continues his etiquette training with Saxon Huxley.

They’re going to try this one more time, but the Spanish Sensation is confident in Huxley. “The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plane.” “THE RAIN ON THE TRAIN-” No no, calm down. One more time. The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plane. “THE RAIN IN SPAIN, SAXON’S ON A TRAIN!” NO! That’s not even… Is he trying? A-Kid walks away, and now Saxon gets it right! He even says AK is a nice man. AK walks back in, asking what Saxon just said. “THE RAIN ON THE TRAIN, SAXON’S GOIN’ TA SPAIN!” Ugh! Well, maybe they’ll sort this out in the ring.

Noam Dar and Sha Samuels talk backstage.

The guys are plaining to see some sexy ladies for Valentine’s Day, and they tell NXT UK Media to leave them alone, they’re busy. Season 2 premiere of Supernova Sessions, y’know. They’ll have a cup of tea before the show. But then someone snatches the Heritage Cup!? And blocks the door! Whodunnit?!

NXT UK shares footage from after last week’s #1 contenders tag match.

Ashton Smith & Oliver Carter were naturally all fired up after winning the right to challenge Moustache Mountain for the NXT UK Tag Team Championships. Trent Seven & Tyler Bate even congratulated the winners personally. Watch that match back, there was some unreal commentary during it. Oh, so they’re good on commentary and in the ring, huh? Alright. But Carter says Seven’s being too polite. They’ve clawed their way from the lowest of lows to the highest of highs, because they are the hottest tag team under the sun, the freshest flavor of this brand. They are Smith & Carter, and-

Seven stops Carter there, because Moustache Mountain knows all about climbing the mountain. But that’s where they are: the top of the mountain! They ARE the NXT UK Tag Team Champions. Carter touches the title belt, Seven gets touchy and slaps his hand away. Carter says he and Smith are the future NXT UK Tag Team Champions. Bate says not a chance! The Moustache Mountain flagpole is firmly into the peak, and it will be staying for the foreseeable future. So congrats, boys, but see you very, very soon. Things are heating up, and in two weeks, it fires off! Will Smith & Carter be Ready And Forward, Always Forward for that title match?

NXT UK presents an all new Supernova Sessions!

Back on their usual set, it’s- Wait, that’s Gallus! No one freed Dar & Sha so Joe Coffey, Mark Coffey & Wolfgang are on stage, having a laugh and a few brews, too. Oh, and the Heritage Cup is here! Mark copies Dar’s usual greeting, “Hello, hello, hello. Hear me now. Live from the moon, I’m your host, Mark Coffey, joined as always by Joe Coffey and Wolfgang. Welcome to another edition of Supernova Sessions!” So this is a jampacked episode right here. Joe has Mark wait. This is Gallus Boys On Top, change the graphics! And boom, Gallus green and the logo! Welcome to the Gallus Boys On Talk! This is still a jampacked episode, so here’s our first guest!

All the way from Bray, County Wicklow, Ireland, it’s Jordan Devlin! Devlin can’t believe this. What’re these guys doing here? What is this? Give us a hug, Jordy! No no no. He came here for Supernova Sessions, not this weekly wind-up. Well, unfortunately Dar & Sha got locked into something they couldn’t get out of. But Mark assures Devlin, he will conduct this as a professional. Have a seat. Devlin will believe that when he sees it. He still sits down, and Mark says Devlin looks fantastic. The hair, the jacket. But speaking of jackets, Mark’s fat back stretched out two of Devlin’s jackets, and he still hasn’t seen his Ray Bans!

Jordan, c’mon. Enough about the clothes. Let’s get serious. Devlin is coming off a huge loss to NXT UK Champion, Ilja Dragunov. Gallus Boys on Talk want to know: What is next for the Irish Ace? Well, Mark’s afraid that’s all the time they have! See you next- Oh, so this is one huge joke to you guys, is it? Yeah, kinda. Dar & Sha are free and they hurry out! What’ve Gallus done to their set?! It’s a mess! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome Dar & Sha to GBOT! Dar apologizes to Devlin. What’ve they done to Colin the end table?! Did they even water the plants?! There’s plants? Dar says they’ve been victimized! Call the police!

Sha says they don’t need the authorities. Sha can handle this. “Oi, dimwit!” Is this all their mess? Tell you what, Gallus has one chance, and he means just one chance. They can clean up this mess and jog on. Otherwise, Sha will slap Mark upside his head, go after his big brother, then dog man over there. Wolfgang howls, but Mark dares Sha to try. Joe says let’s forget about all that, and pose for a group selfie! Eeeeey~! No, no, no! Joe, you better take that picture, cherish it, print it and put it over his bed, because that’s the closest he’ll ever get to a championship while Dar’s here! Oh, we’ll see about that!

And since this is still GBOT and they’re all about asking questions, Joe has a question for Dar. Dar has the answers, then! Devlin shouts everyone down, and says we’re forgetting what we’re here for. This is about the Irish Ace and Supernova Sessions. Gallus laughs that one off. By the way, Wolfie’s had Devlin’s Ray Bans the whole time. Dar wants them to delete this footage and keep it off NXT UK. Well that’s not happening. But Dar promises he and Devlin can have a do-over. Dar goes to grab the Heritage Cup, but Joe grabs it, too. Dar better keep a tight grasp of it, and enjoy it while it lasts. Dar tells Joe that he’s the wrong one to send for.

Dar wants his music to play them off, but Mark says no no, play THEIR music! Gallus does their best to stay serious now, but will they be having the last laugh when the Iron King goes after the Scottish Supernova’s cup?

Dave Mastiff stops Jack Starz from touching his vest.

What does he think he’s doing? Starz has been dissecting last week over and over again in his head. Starz thinks that there were opportunities to work together better as a team. Mastiff could’ve tagged Starz in, they could’ve gotten the ball rolling, and they could’ve won. Well, okay. Mastiff is hearing what he’s saying, but why was he touching Mastiff’s stuff? Starz just wants them to be a team, a cohesive unit, and he wants to be like Mastiff. Really? So he wants a vest? Yes, and he wants Mastiff’s respect. “Well, you don’t just take one of these. You have to earn it. There’s a story, a history.” Then Starz wants to earn it!

Okay, then. Mastiff will think about it. And don’t touch it! What will Starz have to do to earn both a Bomber vest and the Bomber’s respect?

Kenny Williams speaks.

“Little boys and little girls are always afraid of Thunderstorms. When one kicks up, they rush to their beds, trembling at the wind and the rain and the thunder rattling off their doors. But then, it just stops.” The kids realize that what they were afraid of was noise. A thunderstorm rolls into town, makes a commotion, then runs outta steam. Kenny laughs, because that’s why Sam Gradwell’s nickname is so fitting. “Sam runs around NXT UK, dying for the attention of others, making a commotion. And when he gets that attention, he can’t last a crack.” Kenny says anyone can weather a storm. Especially as someone as resilient and ruthless and vile as little Kenny Cockroach.

A-Kid VS Saxon Huxley!

El Nino Anonimo said last week that no great mind exists without a touch of madness. If that’s true, then the Divine Beast of the Astral Plane has one of the greatest minds in the world today. But will Saxon show AK there’s a method to his madness? Or will AK tame the beast and make his way to the top of NXT UK?

The bell rings and AK circles with Saxon. AK shoots in after a leg but lets off as Saxon tries to get him. They circle again, knuckle lock, and AK rolls, to go for a leg. Saxon throws AK off, AK scrambles to a corner. AK avoids Saxon, then ties up with him again. AK waistlocks, Saxon wrenches free, and AK gets away. AK gives testing kicks, but Saxon stays up. AK gets around, facelocks, cranks on the hold, but Saxon powers up to put AK on the apron! AK SLAPS Saxon, then avoids the haymaker to get in and chinlock! Saxon arm-drags free, AK BOOTS from the corner! Saxon comes back, another BOOT! And another BOOT!

AK runs, but into a THESZ PRESS! Saxon dribbles AK, huffs and grumbles, but AK KICKS him in the back! AK gets to a corner, avoids Saxon and goes to the apron. GAMANGIRI! AK jumps in, but Saxon catches him! Saxon TOSSES AK across the way! Saxon ROCKS AK with a body shot in the corner, then brings him around to back suplex and RAM AK into the corner! Saxon CLOBBERS AK and AK falls out of the ropes! Saxon drags AK up, whips him and scoops him, BACKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! AK is still in this but Saxon STRADDLE ATTACKS! AK crawls, Saxon STRADDLE ATTACKS again!

Saxon drags AK up, gut wrench to the Canadian rack, and he bends AK against his shoulder! AK pries free, throws big forearms and CHOPS, but Saxon knees low. Saxon whips, AK tilt-o-whirls through, but Saxon holds off the Russian Leg Sweep. So AK hops on for an IRON OCTOPUS! Saxon breaks free, AK tries to sunset flip, but Saxon stays up to drag AK up. AK dodges, springboards and arm-drags, kips up and DROPKICKS! But Saxon comes back, ELBOW DROP FLOP as AK moves! AK runs in, gets under the Thesz Press, and PENALTY KICKS an arm! PENALTY KICK again! AK headlocks, but Saxon SWINGING BACKBREAKERS!

Saxon snarls as AK crawls. Saxon fires up and runs, but AK dumps him out of the ring! AK builds speed to DIVE! Direct hit and Saxon hits barriers! Saxon staggers into the ring, AK hurries to the corner. AK climbs, leaps, CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO! AK has the arm! Saxon resists the Fujiwara armbar, fights his way up, scoops AK again, but AK knees free! AK runs, but Saxon pops him up, CHOKE SLAM BACKBREAKER! Cover, TWO!! AK survives and Saxon grows frustrated. Saxon drags AK up, CLUBS his chest, and again, and again and again! AK blocks the arm, but Saxon brings AK up.

AK blocks the buckle ram for a SLICED BREAD! DYNAMIC DROPKICK!! Cover, TWO!! Saxon survives but AK gets fired up. Saxon blocks AK’s haymaker, but AK ENZIGURIS! Saxon stays up, so AK jumps to the top rope, BACKFLIP DDT!! Cover, AK wins!

Winner: A-Kid, by pinfall

A-Kid had a huge challenge in front of him, so he used a huge move to get a huge win! But Saxon’s back up! AK wants Saxon to calm down. AK offers a handshake to show respect, and Saxon takes a deep breath. Saxon accepts the handshake! Has AK helped Saxon find a bit of tranquility inside the whirlwind of his mind? Will AK find himself going for gold in the future?

NXT UK Media catches up with Gallus.

Where’d Joe get that safety cone he’s wearing as a hat? But Gallus hopes they saw what happened outside. “Give us a second series!” Wolfgang says he will be right back, he wants to go to the pub. The Coffey Brothers go on to their room without him, and Wolfgang asks the cameraman what he wants from the pub. But then Devlin SMACKS Wolfgang with a chair from behind! Down goes Wolfie, and Devlin takes back his sunglasses. Will the Irish Ace regret cheap shotting the Last King of Scotland?

NXT UK media checks in with A-Kid.

How is he feeling after that win out there? He feels good. That work together definitely paid off, and he feels like Saxon has found himself again. Die Familie walks past him in the hall, and only Charlie Dempsey gives him a nod hello. AK nods back, and Dempsey follows Rohan Raja & Teoman to gorilla. AK says maybe they can talk more later.

Nathan Frazer VS Teoman w/ Die Familie!

The Babo and his “brothers” jumped the British Prodigy in the parking lot last week, just because Frazer didn’t think they were anything more than a group of thugs. Will Frazer have a fighting chance now that it’s head to head? Or will having Raja & Dempsey ringside ensure Teoman the victory?

The bell rings and the two circle. They tie up, go around, and Teoman ROCKS Frazer with forearms and kicks. Frazer gets around, trips Teoman up and stomps him down! Frazer eggs Teoman on, then counter punches Teoman! Teoman RAMS Frazer to a corner, gets in his face, but Frazer dodges the haymaker to headlock. Teoman lifts but Frazer flying-mares Teoman down. Frazer grinds the headlock, Teoman moves around, and Teoman throws body shots. Teoman powers out, Frazer goes up and over and rolls and hits a headlock takeover! Frazer grinds Teoman down, but Teoman pulls hair.

The ref reprimands, Teoman lets off, and he fights up to throw body shots. Teoman powers Frazer to ropes, grinds his wrists into Frazer’s face, but lets off as the ref counts, to ROCK Frazer! Frazer fires off haymakers in return, then whips to dropkick Teoman down! Teoman scrambles away to the corner, Frazer runs in, but Teoman puts him on the apron. Frazer ROCKS Teoman, but Raja distracts Frazer! Teoman catches Frazer on the ropes, HOTSHOT! Teoman goes out to the other side of the corner, drags Frazer up, NECKBREAKER HOTSHOT on the crossbar! Die Familie cheers as Teoman puts Frazer in at 7 of 10. Cover, TWO!

Teoman grinds Frazer down, but Frazer fights up to throw elbows. Frazer is free but Teoman sweeps the legs! Basement dropkick! Cover, TWO! Teoman clamps on with a chinlock and he grinds Frazer down. Frazer endures, even as Teoman thrashes him around. Teoman wrenches the neck to elbow the shoulder! Teoman wraps the headlock back on, but Frazer fights up.

Direct hit and Frazer is fired up! Frazer gets Teoman up and into the ring, but Teoman holds the skirt. Raja taunts Frazer, Teoman traps Frazer with the skirt after all! Teoman stomps away on Frazer, big jumping stomp to punctuate it! The ring count is 6 of 10, Teoman puts Frazer in at 7. Teoman talks trash, he hobbles over to Frazer and drags him up into a neck wrench. Frazer endures as Teoman leans his weight on the twist.

Frazer throws shots from below, fights up and throws more body shots! Teoman whips and CLOBBERS Frazer from behind! Teoman drags Frazer up and digs a knee into Frazer’s back. Teoman gets the arms for a motorcycle stretch, and sits back to use his boots in it! Frazer fights up to make it a cover, TWO! Teoman digs his boots in more, Frazer pushes back to another cover! TWO, and Frazer is free! Teoman gets the arm, they go around, Frazer RAMS Teoman in the corner! Teoman boots but Frazer blocks! Toeman dodges the forearm but Frazer BOOTS Teoman! Frazer leaps up and over, but his neck jams during the handspring!

Teoman hops up, BLINDSIDE missile dropkick! Cover, TWO!! Frazer is still in this and Teoman is furious! Teoman runs but Frazer dodges the sliding forearm to SUPERKICK! Both men are down and Die Familie is freaking out! A standing count begins, we’re at 5 of 10! Teoman and Frazer get to opposite corners, and they drag themselves up the ropes. Frazer snarls, runs in, and he CLOBBERS Teoman! SLINGBLADE! Teoman fights the suplex and bails out. Die Familie is there, but Frazer goes up! SUPER CROSSBODY! Down goes all three Die Familie brothers! Frazer hurries to get Teoman in, and Frazer goes to the corner.

Teoman flounders, Frazer SPRINGBOARD MACHO ELBOWS! Cover, TWO!! Teoman is still in this and Frazer can’t believe it! Another standing count begins, but Frazer gets to a corner.

Teoman storms back up, grabs the legs and yanks Frazer, Frazer lands on his feet! PELE!! Teoman is down, Frazer hurries to a corner! Raja shouts to Teoman, but Dempsey gets on the apron! Frazer BOOTS Dempsey down, Raja distracts the ref! Teoman gets up the corner, Frazer elbows him away! Frazer adjusts, PHOENIX SPLASH!! Cover, Frazer wins!!

Winner: Nathan Frazer, by pinfall

Even with his brothers trying to help him, Teoman fails! Frazer refuses to fall, will he rise up above Die Familie and go for some gold?

My Thoughts:

A very good NXT UK here, opening with a pretty good match from Amale and Nina Samuels. Amale naturally wins to build her towards a rematch with Jinny, and perhaps after that, another try at the NXT UK Women’s Championship. Probably after Isla Dawn has her shot at Meiko Satomura, since Isla’s building up right now. I liked the promo from Mastiff & Starz, where Starz is determined to be even more of a team with Mastiff. I’m sure the next couple weeks will have Mastiff putting Starz through some crazy stuff to see if he’s worthy. Speaking of crazy, I love how Saxon had that moment of clarity before going nuts again. Saxon had a really good match with A-Kid, but A-Kid wins to keep him going after his Heritage Cup loss.

Plus, the interaction A-Kid had with Die Familie was an interesting one. Frazer VS Teoman was a great main event, and Frazer getting the win was a great surprise. I’m sure at some point, Frazer will need a tag partner to go against Die Familie, I wonder if A-Kid could be made into one. Kenny Williams has a very well made vignette to call out Sam Gradwell before their match, but I feel like this has to be Gradwell’s win to get even with Kenny for before. We got good promos from Smith, Carter and Moustache Mountain, their match in two weeks is going to be great stuff, and as I said last week, could probably go either way with all the little seeds they’ve planted.

I think the best stuff this week was Gallus hijacking Dar’s season premiere of his talk show. With it being empty arena again, they were able to set up by the screens, and that makes for a better set to me than in the ring. The Gallus boys have good comedy chops, Devlin of course works as the serious guy in all this, and this is bringing things one step closer to that Six Man Tag I want of Gallus VS Devlin, Dar & Sha. Devlin VS Wolfgang is happening first because of that sneak attack, but I’m sure there’s a way to get us that Six Man before Joe Coffey challenges Dar for the Heritage Cup.

My Score: 8.3/10

NXTNA kicks off the post-Genesis TV with a Live show! Fraxiom defend the NXT Tag Titles on TNA television against The Rascalz!

January 23, 2025

Andrew Balaz

So we’re gonna be getting Live action for iMPACT for the first time in 8 years! NXTNA should bring some interesting layers with this episode. Fraxion is facing The Rascalz. We could see some stuff with 23 pay off, we could maybe get a Cora Jade appearance and who knows what else we’ve got. Genesis could’ve been the beginning of something big, but at least we make sure Hendry Mania can run wild as the TNA World Champ!

We're kicking off the night with NEW TNA World Champion @joehendry!

Ratings:

Rosemary, Heather & Ash by Elegance vs Masha Slamovich & Spitfire: Ash wins via Victory Roll – ** 1/2
JDC & Moose w/Alisha Edwards vs The Hardyz: Jeff wins via Swanton Bomb – ***
NXT Tag Team Championships: Fraxiom (c) vs The Rascalz: Fraxiom retain via Spanish Phoenix – *** 1/4
TNA World Championship: Joe Hendry (c) vs Matt Cardona: Hendry retains via Standing Ovation – *** 1/4

Results:

Oh look, Joe Hendry comes out to kick off the Live episode. Hendry says he’ll be a fighting champion and face anyone at anytime, so Santino’s music hits and we may get a surprise very soon. Oh nevermind, it’s Matt Cardona. If this was supposed to be a big reveal I don’t think it came over well.

Rosemary, Heather & Ash by Elegance vs Masha Slamovich & Spitfire

Jody and Ash start, Ash gets in a cocky slap but then a few strikes and a T-Bone suplex lead to tagging in Dani and a few assisted Slam moves and we see a near fall. Ash retreats to her corner, tags in Heather, Heather is afraid of Dani so she blind tags Rosemary. Spitfire do some tandem stuff on Rosemary and the Demon Assassin finally slips a move from Jody, shoves Jody into her corner, Heather tries to blind tag but Rosemary grabs Heather, Ash calls a timeout to explain to Rosemary that they’re a team and tags herself in. A few shortcuts that the ref conveniently can’t see and Ash tags in Rosemary cleanly. Rosemary throws Jody around, Exploder Suplex for two, and Ash tags in, hits a Snap Suplex, tries to go after Dani and Masha but Masha pops her and Jody hits a Codebreaker to tag in Masha.

Masha comes out hot and beats the hell out of Heather and Rosemary. Masha tried Requiem on Heather, but Rosemary hits the Scorpion Deathdrop, Dani Shotgun kicks Rosemary, Satellite DDT from Ash takes out Dani, Jody takes out Ash, Heather hits a John Woo Dropkick to send Jody crashing to the outside. After the signature spam, Dani gets back on the apron, Masha tags her in and Dani is taking Ash to Suplex City. Cora Jade’s music hits in the middle of the match and she hands a folder to Masha with her picture in it, like Masha used to do. Ash takes advantage of the Cora distraction and Victory Rolls Dani for the flash win. Cora makes her intentions known and the match was fine.

Northern Useless Armoury comes out to look pathetic and Josh talks. Sinner and Saint are about as impressive as a wet fart running down your legs in the middle of summer. They are pathetic and that makes this whole heel turn look worthless. Jabroni squad says Josh can’t leave and attack him. EY hits the ring to make a save, and cut an obvious promo to make a tag match. The crowd is mostly comatose, Sinner and Saint look stupid, have done nothing, and have terrible names.

JDC & Moose w/Alisha Edwards vs The Hardyz

System attacks immediately, the bell just rings, but the Hardyz reverse the Irish Whip spot, stack em in the corner and Poetry in Motion while still wearing the belt so he does the Splash version. Matt does the Delete Corner Face Smashes to JDC and turns it into the pull out of the corner Powerbomb. Extreme Elbow from Matt, Matt goes for the Twist, but JDC shoves off, Lish paws at the ankle and Moose attacks him while the ref is trying to figure out who to look at. Moose tags himself in, beats on Matt and then a few quick tags keep Matt isolated in the corner. JDC with a nice Strong Whip and Splash, tags back in Moose and Moose goes for the Camel Clutch to try and keep the pressure on but Matt starts to fight back. Moose doesn’t lose too much momentum, takes out Jeff, rocks Matt with an Uppercut into Senton and JDC tries Down and Dirty but misses! Simultaneous tags and classic Jeff Hardy offense gets a near fall that JDC has to break up.

Jeff dispatches with JDC, Moose misses Lights Out, Twist of Fate, goes for the Swanton but JDC cuts him off, Matt Twist of Fates JDC, Moose tries to pull Jeff off but gets Headbutt down and Swanton Bomb on Moose for the win! Jeff gonna go for the X Division Title now?

Twenty Three stuff happens on the tron before a commercial break, coming back Sami hits the ring calling out 23. Steph De Lander comes out to show she’s 23 because she won the Digital Media Title in the Divorce. But Sami can meet her new boyfriend, Mance Warner!

NXT Tag Team Championships: Fraxiom (c) vs The Rascalz

Axiom with a bit of World of Sport counters to the Arm Wringer, kicks Trey in the teeth, tags in Frazer and he rips across the ropes and kick Trey again, but Trey does turn things around. ACS Rush from The Rascalz. Quick tandem offense from Fraxiom with interwoven Forearm Shivers and a near fall. Axiom locks in a Sleeper and tries to ground Trey. Trey tries to fight back up but eats a Back Elbow. Tandem offense again, Double Superkicks from Fraxiom forces Wentz to break things up a little. Trey has been isolated for a while and Axiom is just keeping a solid Armbar but Trey fights up, manages to get away and hits a Rebound Switch Suplex.

Simultaneous tag and Wentz and Frazer go back and forth. Wentz has the early advantage, Knee Lift into the Rolling Snapmare Shining Wizard then the Running Corkscrew Moonsault. Axiom breaks up the Wentz offense, Fraxiom double teams Trey and takes him out with an Avalanche Total Elimination. More tandem spots from Fraxiom which end with a Brainbuster and Superkick combo but only two! Trey manages to get Frazer out of the ring, Wentz with the Back Handspring Knee Lift but everyone is down and a little gassed. Axiom tries a German, Wentz shrugs him off, Axiom Kips Up into a Superkick, Wentz goes for the UFO Cutter but eats the Superkick. Rascalz tandem Superkicking people out of the Sky, STREET SWEEPER for two! Cheeky Nandos, but Wes Lee hits the ring to distract the ref, Tyson and Tyriek attack, Spanish Fly into Phoenix Splash finish and Fraxion retain!

Solid match that hopefully leads to more stuff. Santana comes down to cut a typical man of the people babyface promo. But the biggest pop of the night (not counting the Hardyz) is when Mustafa Ali’s music hits! Ali is back! He says he signed with TNA.

Tessa comes out to cut a promo, Tully is in the crowd and cuts a decent anti-San Antonio promo. Not as good as Charles Barkley, until she mentions fat women. She’s getting a visceral negative reaction, and it’s pretty great. She basked in the heat and decent promo.

TNA World Championship: Joe Hendry (c) vs Matt Cardona

Slow start, shove from Joe so Matt powders and then they go into Arm Wringer World of Sport stuff, but still mostly posturing. At least the crowd is engaged. Cardona feints the Test of Strength, kicks Hendry and shoves him into the corner with Chops, but Joe no sells and lights up Cardona until Cardona sells to a different corner to hit a sneaky Forearm. Rope Run, Leapfrog spot which ends with Hendry hitting a Knee Lift into the Stalling Suplex. Cardona side steps Hendry after the Suplex and then hits a Wrecking Ball Dropkick before using his ripped t-shirt to choke Hendry and just gets yelled at a little. Cardona Crossbody from the steps, but Hendry catches him, throws him on his shoulders and Attitude Adjustment on the apron. Joe goes for another but Matt claws the eyes and whips Hendry into the steps.

Commercial happens and as soon as we’re back, Hendry hits a Sunset Flip into Locomotion Cradle spots before Cardona hits the Diving Polish Hammer to stall Hendry. Cardona locks in a Guillotine, but Hendry powers up and Vertical Suplexes out of it! A few right hands, Lariat, Sack of Shit into the Kip Up and the turn to the camera! Standing Ovation is being called, Cardona fights it off and hits the Flashback for a near fall. Reboot connects from Cardona, he tries another and gets caught, goes for a Powerbomb but Cardona Throat Chop, Missile Dropkick, Snap DDT for a near fall! Radio Silence attempts from Cardona, Hendry ducks it, Running Boot kills the referee, and Hendry hits a Pop Up Powerbomb for what would’ve been the win, but no ref. Cardona hits the Low Blow and then wanders over to the title, very slowly, looks to use it but OH MAH GAHD MAGGLE ITS JBLS! Clothesline from Hell hits Cardona and Hendry stares down JBL. Cardona recovers enough to hit Hendry with the title as Hendry was distracted by JBL existing.

Cardona tries the title again, Standing Ovation, 1-2-3.

Overall Score: 6.5/10

The effort to make this show special was apparent. Wes Lee, Tyriek and Tyson interfering, Cora Jade costing the faces a match, Mance Warner, JBL on a Live TNA, Mustafa Ali returning and Hendry bookending the show is good stuff. Lapsed viewers or WWE fans got to see a lot of people they recognize, sure Steph De Lander’s whole explanation was moronic, Cardona was a fart in church and JDC not eating the pinfall seems silly unless it truly does lead to a Jeff Hardy X Division challenge. But the effort was all there.

There were no real production hiccups or audio problems, the crowd was receptive to the important things, Tessa got booed out of the building but steered into it and embraced the hate. Now she just needs to walk out with a Real American Beer or have Hulk and Tully escort her out for Slammiversary or BFG, and it will truly just steer so hard into the skid people might pop for the acknowledgement.

But it was a fun show, yes the Josh stuff is stupid. The Knockouts aren’t in a great spot (but the NXT help will bolster that), and JBL is still confusing…but the show was entertaining.

Mark Briscoe speaks.

“Mark Briscoe here, ROH pioneer, one half of #DemBoys, the baddest tag team of all time, baby! Former 13-time ROH Tag Team Champions. Hey, here we are, ROH episode 100. Here’s to 100 more, and then 100 more, and then 100 more, and then 100 more! HAAAH!” The Sussex County Chicken has the right idea. What will be in store for ROH after making it to this milestone?

ROH World Television Championship: Komander w/ Alex Abrahantes VS QT Marshall!

If we’re talking Episode 100 of ROH TV here on Honor Club, then of course this title needs to be defended! Though if you were to ask “Big Doom QT,” he’d say he’s the reason this episode is a big deal. Will QT at least back up that ego with actions? Or will the Commander of the Skies continue to command respect?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is the Face of ROH TV!

The fans chant “QT SUCKS! QT SUCKS!” QT gets on the corner to show off with a backflip, but the fans say, “You Still Suck!” QT skips the Code of Honor, the bell rings, and QT circles with Komander. They tie up, QT waistlocks, and he SLAMS Komander! The fans boo but QT flips Komander, only for Komander to do a 360. QT is annoyed, he just wanted 180. QT flips Komander over again, but Komander kips up and arm-drags hard! The fans fire up as Komander has the double wristlock. QT is annoyed again and he fights up. QT powers out, but Komander slips under the lariat! Komander UP KICKS, then he KICKS away on QT’s leg!

QT runs up, but into a SUPERKICK! Komander goes up to CROSSBODY, but QT catches him! QT shakes his head, swings Komander around, BACKBREAKER to FLATLINER! Did QT just copy the Lethal Combination? The fans boo while Komander is dazed, but QT drags Komander up to TOSS him out. QT goes out to then bring Komander to railing, and he CHOPS! Komander is stinging but the fans rally up. QT brings Komander around, pushes him to the apron, then has him against a corner. Komander ducks and the CHOP hits POST! QT clutches that hand, but he still CHOPS Komander! QT puts Komander in the ring, then storms up to the apron.

QT steps in for a springboard ELBOW DROP! Cover, TWO! Komander is still in this and the fans rally up. Abrahantes coaches Komander and he rallies the fans.

FALCON ARROW, then a LIONSAULT! Cover, TWO! Komander survives and QT is furious! QT clamps on with a chinlock, but he claws at the mask! The ref reprimands and the fans boo, but QT stops at 4. QT brings Komander to a corner and hoists him up.

The fans rally again while QT climbs up after Komander. QT CLAWS the mask again! Komander fires elbows, QT steps back, but then QT pulls Komander back. QT CHOPS Komander into the Tree of Woe! The fans boo but QT runs up, only for Komander to BOOT him while upside-down! QT staggers, but he comes back, only for Komander to sit up! QT POSTS himself, then falls to the floor!

Komander keeps moving, he ducks ‘n’ dodges to roll and FACEBUSTER! Cover, TWO!

QT survives and Komander grows frustrated, but Abrahantes coaches him. The fans rally up, and Komander has QT in the drop zone. Komander goes corner to corner, goes up and up, MOONSAULT but into BOOTS! QT takes Komander out of the skies, and he calls for DDP’s inheritance! DIAMOND- NO, Komander backslides QT! TWO!! QT escapes, Komander dodges, and Komander springboards, into a DIAMOND CUTTER!! Cover, TWO!! Komander survives and QT is shocked! The fans fire up and sing “OLE~ OLE OLE OLE~!” QT goes out and he talks trash on Cincinnati. QT grabs the belt! The fans boo but QT goes to the apron!

The ref also says stop, so QT drops Komander. QT BODY BLOWS Abrahantes! The fans boo more, that was uncalled for! QT just grins and soaks up the heat. But Komander uses Abrahantes as a step to MEXICAN DESTROYER on the ramp!! Komander hurries to go up, up, and FLYING DESTROYER!! QT is back in the drop zone and Komander climbs! The fans are thunderous for CIELITO LINDO!! Cover, Komander wins!

Winner: Komander, by pinfall (still ROH World Television Champion)

QT tried to bring The Doom, but he got a bit full of himself. Well, what else is new? But wait, Lee Johnson walks out here. Big Shotty applauds Komander’s win, but says he’s got next. Komander says he’s game. When and where will we see these two fight for the spotlight here on Honor Club?

Athena speaks.

“Hello, Minions. Now I know you weren’t about to celebrate my show, the 100th episode of ROH on Honor Club without me, the most important part. The Fallen Goddess, the Minion Overlord, the American Joshi, the inspiration to every division, the ROH Gatekeeper, but most importantly, the Forever ROH Women’s World Champion. Now, I know I’ve been away on business, the Athena World~ Tour~! I know it was amazing, it was beautiful, and still your Forever Champion, Athena, So very soon, I will be back to show the world why I am the most dominant champion in all of pro-wrestling, and why it is my show! HAHAHAHA! See you soon.”

Backstage interview with Leila Grey.

Lexy Nair is with the Top Flight Attendant and congratulates her on her first win of 2025. How is Leila going to keep this momentum going? Leila is all fired up, and she said that New Year, New Me. She is coming out guns blazing, and expects many more wins this year. Including some championship gold. And speaking of gold, she thinks it is time to challenge for something real. You know what she wants? The ROH Women’s Television Championship! Red Velvet, we see you holding that. But it is time for a real baddie to take the stand. So what does Red say? Next week, Red VS Grey for the Women’s TV Championship.

And “spoiler alert,” Leila’s taking that title. Get it? Got it? Good. Leila is ready to reach that next level, but will The Chef already cook up a fresh L for Leila?

Jacked Jameson is backstage.

The Iron Savages’ front man says he’s jacked, he’s stoked, this is gonna be sweet! His “homies” are over here, he’ll start a new group, it’ll be so sweet! Jameson walks over to Preston Vance, Griff Garrison & Cole Karter and says wassup, dudes! Uh, yeah… Well, alright, they’re looking shredded! Jacked to the gills! Check that chest! Vance is huge! So anyway, Jameson’s starting up a new group, it’s gonna be sweet! It’ll be a fraternity. No, wait, it’ll be THE Fraternity! There’ll be chicks, parties, it’ll be sweet, dude. Okay, they do dig chicks… And they are pretty jacked. No high-fives, bro. Jameson puts his hand down.

But see, Vance and the guys already get a lot of chicks, and already go to a lot of parties, so… Okay, okay, fair enough. But that’s just part of it. A very important part, but there’s more to it. The three of them have been a bit lost in the shuffle, and what they’re missing is discipline and focus. Jameson can be the guy to get them there. But hey, it’ll be awesome. Chicks, parties, titles, money! It’ll be so sweet! The Fraternity! The four of them will be unstoppable. Uh, sure… Just give them some time to think about it. Okay, bros! No, they’re not bros. Jameson goes off to the side, and the trio talks it out.

Griff votes they kick Jameson’s ass. Karter says that’s a good option, and Vance agrees. Jameson is a total idiot, but hey, they could at least hear him out. And then they can kick his ass! Vance calls Jameson back over, and Jameson’s all pumped. Vance says they considered his offer, and they will… think about it. See you around. Yeah, sure, bro! Chicks, money, parties- Yeah, yeah, they know, they know. Okay, okay. Do they want him to hang out? He can take his shirt off like them. No, no, that’s not needed. Okay, okay. Are there chicks coming? Y-Yeah, for them. With an Uber. Oh, okay, so they’re headed out? Alright.

Jameson still offers a high-five but no one is taking. Well, okay, next week! It’ll be awesome! The Fraternity! Jameson heads out and Karter says they should just kick his ass. Vance says yeah, that’s definitely the plan. But will Vance, Karter & Griff steal that idea and become the frat boys of ROH?

Chris Jericho speaks.

“Hi, guys~! Who can believe it? The 100th episode of ROH, available now at WatchROH.com. Think about this: 100 episodes of ROH, with 100 great moments from Chris Jericho, your ROH World Champion.

Winner: Katsuyori Shibata, by pinfall

Shane put up a fight worthy of Strong Style, but Shibata epitomizes Strong Style! Will Shibata keep this momentum going until he also epitomizes ROH? Wait, Bravo slips in, and then Dean and Moriarty step up. They mug Shibata! The fans boo but STP keeps on The Wrestler 3v1! Shane winds up, and he DECKS Shibata! Then Moriarty hands Shane a chair! The Infantry stomp Shibata while Shane sets the chair down. Shane tells Shibata they’ll end his career! Shane winds up, but DANIEL GARCIA is here! The TNT Champion is an ally to The Wrestler, he will not stand for this! But that’s a 4v1 situation.

WAIT WHAT!? The Undisputed Kingdom is here!? Adam Cole, Roderick Strong & Kyle O’Reilly, all former ROH World Champions, stand with Red Death, and they storm into the ring! STP goes into a tactical retreat, but clearly the battlelines have been drawn! Will ROH belong to Shane Taylor Promotions? Or will it once again be undisputed?

Don Callis speaks.

Scummy Callis is with his Alpha, Konosuke Takeshita, and says that was a great win for Shibata. Very impressive! Shibata is a former ROH Pure Champion, has been champion all over the world, and is one of the best Japanese wrestlers of all time. But you know who you’re not greater than? THE ALPHA! Konosuke Takeshita is THE greatest product to come out of Japan! Bigger than Rikidozan! Bigger than Inoki! Bigger than Baba! Bigger than Kobashi! And yeah, bigger than Shibata. So if Shibata has the guts to test himself against the AEW International Champion, show up at Daily’s Place in Jacksonville, the home of AEW, this Saturday!

And if he does, they’ll send him home in a body bag! Tell ’em, Take-san! Konosuke tells Shibata that this Saturday, he will show Shibata who is THE ALPHA! Shobu da, konoyaro! Callis is fired up for this one, but will The Wrestler become a champion in AEW for Homecoming?

My Thoughts:

A very good episode for ROH being that this is episode 100, but it isn’t exactly what I was hoping for given it’s episode 100, either. For one, we got only one (new) title match and it wasn’t even the main event. QT VS Komander was still a lot of fun, and that was still a great win for Komander. Lee Johnson stepping up for the next shot is cool, he was aiming for this title for most of 2024 and always falling short. I don’t know if he actually takes that title from Komander, but maybe now that he’s a Heel, he has EJ Nduka help him cheat that title off Komander. And then we only got promos from Jericho and Athena, not even real appearances, but I suppose that’s to bide time while contenders are built.

The only other title match we got was a replay from way back when Daniels & Sydal were a team and Shingo Takagi was a young Muscle Hawk in Dragon Gate. That was a great match, but even that can be seen as filler like the rest of the matches tonight. Still good wins for everyone, and Leila calling out Red Velvet is some good stuff. I would think Red Velvet wins again because we’re waiting on Velvet VS LEGIT Leyla Hirsch. Jacked Jameson wanting a new faction out of nowhere seems disappointing. There was a time when The Iron Savages could’ve become something more than comedic hosses, but TK dropped the ball there. That said, Vance, Griff & Karter is a good trio, I hope they become what Iron Savages (and other trios out there really) could’ve been.

Shibata VS Shane was a great main event, and Shibata winning is like a 51-49 surprising, if only because Shane and STP are being built up to try and take over ROH. However, I do appreciate we’re getting crossover between AEW and ROH again as Garcia and The Undisputed Kingdom show up to save Shibata. We could get a great 8 man Tag of Garcia & Kingdom VS STP that then sets up a lot of other matches. Callis & Konosuke having the last word was an interesting move, but word did come out before this episode aired (another fumble) that we were getting Konosuke VS Shibata for the International Championship, so it works that this promo makes it official. Konosuke VS Shibata could steal the show on Saturday, but I would think Konosuke wins.
