Andrew’s TNA iMPACT! Results & Match Ratings: 7.25.2024
Slammiversary Fallout! Where do things go on the way to Victory Road?
![](https://thechairshot.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/TNA_iMPACT_7252024.png)
Well now we start the fall out of Slammiversary. Josh Alexander in his bad bitch summer, X-Speedball legacy, ABC got the t-a-g and Jordynne is still in charge of the Knockouts division. Like I said at the end of Slammiversary, all of the champions being Babyfaces is stupid. They need to drop a couple titles fairly quickly, because I don’t care what some people say, Nic Nemeth ain’t gonna bring any eyes to the brand. He’s about as hot as day old Hamburger Helper over a camping sterno.
We’ll probably open with the luke warm champion, so tune in like 10 minutes late for anything of substance to be happen.

Ratings:
- Steve Maclin vs Cody Deaner: Maclin wins via KIA – *
- AJ Francis w/Rich Swann & Josh Bishop vs Sami Callihan: AJ wins via Down Payment – **
- Hammer Your ASH (ASH by Elegance & Alexander Hammerstone) vs JuggerYoung (Jordynne Grace & Eric Young): Hammer Your ASH wins via Torture Rack – ** 1/2
- The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers & JDC) w/Alisha Edwards vs Matt Hardy & The ABC (Ace Austin & Chris Bey): Broken Alphabet wins via Twist & Splash – ***
Results:
Nemeth gives the ole “I’ll be a fighting champion…blah blah” promo and drops the “any company” line that we’ve already understood what that means. Campaign Singh cuts him off…and I never thought I’d be happy for Campaign Singh to walk out and say anything…ever. And…Mustafa’s promo is worse than Dolph’s. He’s gone from parody to caricature even saying “it was the biggest screw job Montreal ever saw”. Like some of these lines are cheap heat, but most are just brain dead comments that wouldn’t get a reaction out of anyone (and the crowd was silent for that comment). Mustafa gets caught in an Archer “phrasing” moment about getting screwed hard, but this is painful. Promos written by 14 year olds everyone…
This ends with Ali challenging Nemeth for the World Title. While I’m not against walk up challenges, I watch Japanese wrestling, I don’t really get the point aside from doing it just to do it.
ABC and Matt Hardy have a small promo, and I’m still not really a fan of Unbroken Matt Version 6.0. The floating between Broken voice and his normal voice sounds amateurish.
OH LOOK, finally a match 20 minutes into the show. And it’s my son Steve Maclin! OH CHRIST he’s facing Deaner. This has been 25 minutes of talking followed by the worst god damn attempt at a gimmick. Deaner’s little “Papa Santino told me I can wipe my ass only if the crowd agrees”. This gimmick should die in a fire.
Steve Maclin vs Cody Deaner
Deaner started off quick because Maclin was in disbelief that Deaner was actually gonna fight him. Maclin dodges a Crossbody, Busaiku Knee, and just starts beating on Deaner for fun. And this is fun, maybe Maclin can make sure Deaner gets stretchered out and written off forever. How do you call for an ambulance in French? Maclin with the old Back Breaker into a stretch. Deaner tries to nerd rage up, breaks the Back Breaker Stretch, his punch combo, into a Manhattan Drop and Bulldog. Deaner hits the Crossbody, but Maclin kicks out. This is entirely too competitive.
Deaner goes for the Deaner DDT, blocked, Olympic Slam into Splashing Deaner into the corner, Caught in the Crosshairs, K-I-A, thanks for coming you damn dweeb. Stay in Canada and don’t travel Deaner, please.

AJ Francis w/Rich Swann & Josh Bishop vs Sami Callihan
As the bell sounds, Sami knocks Rich off the apron, Low Bridges AJ, does the Beats of the Bodhran on AJ and then AJ eats the offense and strategizes with his crew. Bishop and Rich swarm the ring, Sami allows himself to get distracted so AJ slides in and starts beating on Sami. AJ throats Sami across the middle rope and Rich makes his presence felt, AJ distracts the referee and Rich gets in a lot of cheap shots. Bishop throws Sami back in the ring, and AJ keeps up the pressure. Lots of 5 count chokes and leverage moves. After the commercial break ends, Sami dodges a Tennessee Whiskey Knee, gets in a few shots before Rich trips Sami as he’s setting up a Dive, and then AJ takes advantage of the position and hits the goofball knee strike.
AJ calls for his Chokeslam, Sami tries to break it with Axe Handles, then claws the eyes. Sami goes for a Scoop Slam, gets him part way up and then falls over. AJ Chokeslam again, but he bites his hand and starts fighting back. Launches himself at AJ, sends him bouncing off the ropes and uses the momentum to hit that Scoop Slam that was teased earlier. Sami goes for a Western Lariat but eats a Big Boot. AJ does a little Hulk Hogan pose to signal a Leg Drop, but Sami dodges and then connects on a Sliding Lariat. Thumbs Up, Thumbs….interference. Rich distracts the ref, Bishop lays out Sami, AJ connects with the Down Payment.
Hammer Your ASH (ASH by Elegance & Alexander Hammerstone) vs JuggerYoung (Jordynne Grace & Eric Young)
ASH and Jordynne exchange slaps and then Jordynne starts to out muscle ASH. Spinebuster from Jordynne, Juggernaut Driver attempt, but ASH fights off, rope run, Sattelite DDT into both tagging out. EY does the Flair corner flop, slides back in between Hammer’s legs, and connects on a Neckbreaker. EY is the quicker of the two, but Hammer finally gets his hands on him and a Release Belly to Belly into a full mount raining of fists, then a near fall. Hammer smashes EY in a corner, Arm Wringer into an Irish Whip across, but EY moves and Hammer tags out to ASH. ASH levels Jordynne, peppers EY with a few shots and pulls him back to their corner and starts some tandem offense with Hammerman. Hammer Guerilla Presses ASH and throws her into EY for a near fall. Hammer looks to aim for either a Powerbomb or Nightmare Pendulum, but EY drops it into a Small Package, pinfall kick out, they both run, Double Lariat spot. The Knockouts get tagged in.
Jordynne is in control early, World’s Strongest Slam into a Vader Bomb. Juggernaut Driver attempt, but ASH fights it off and tags out to Hammer. Jordynne and EY do some schoolyard stuff with the old Push while Jordynne is down to trip Hammer. All four get in, ASH gets leveled, EY gets leveled, Hammer and Jordynne have a brief face off, but Hammer throws Jordynne to the apron and ASH connects with a Meteora from the apron. Death Valley Driver from Young on Hammer, ASH stares in shock, EY tells her to get, ASH runs away. EY goes up for his Macho Elbow, and ASH causes him to fall to Hammer’s feet, Torture Rack, and EY submits.
Josh Alexander comes out, with new heel music. And it’s not that bad, definitely better than some other people’s new music. Josh yells at the crowd a bit, says he can’t wait til he’s back in a real Canadian town, like his home of Toronto. Then he drops the mic in lieu of an explanation. The crowd chants him off with the “Nah Nah Nah Nah, Hey Hey Hey”.
https://x.com/i/status/1816647373654724937
The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers & JDC) w/Alisha Edwards vs Matt Hardy & The ABC (Ace Austin & Chris Bey)
JDC and Hardy start, but JDC quickly tags out to Myers and that doesn’t go well. Hardy grabs a hold of Myers, a few Delete chops, drags him to his corner and they all get in a few shots punctuated with Hardy getting tagged back in and an Elbow into Myers’ extended and worked on left arm. Myers stays isolated, back into the corner, Boot to the gut, Ace tags in and wallops Myers. Ace connects on Double Kicks, into Russian Leg Sweep and his half of Click Click Boom, for a 2 count. Myers finally gets free with a Jaw Breaker and tags out to Eddie. But The System gets no momentum, Ace stifles Eddie’s offense and starts a few quick tags with him and Bey for tandem offense. Moose finally comes down the ramp as Eddie kicked out of yet another pinfall attempt because The System has had nothing going for them. Eddie finally gets some offense since Moose was a big enough distraction.
Eddie thinks they have a spot, so he tags back in JDC, but The ABC stop him cold, tag in Matt Hardy, and Matt walks down JDC, but JDC Low Bridges. Matt is on the outside, so all of The System surrounds Hardy, then Joe Hendry’s music hits! That stops the heel beatdown, and we follow Hendry’s entire entrance. So that proves Hendry is bigger than the 8 other people in this frame. Not really sure if that’s optics you want to push along. Ace and JDC try to remind people there’s wrestling going on, but JDC thumbs the eye to get a little something going. Vertical Suplex for a near fall, tag out for Eddie and Eddie lights up Ace with some of those NOAH Chops. Ace retreats to the ropes and Alisha chokes him with the ropes while the ref is distracted.
Myers gets tagged in, Ace tries to use the crowd energy, Myers stops it at first but then Ace slips a Scoop Slam and tags out to Bey. Hot tag, strike rush, Double Stomp, educated feet, Leap Frog to the corner but Lish climbs on the apron and yells at Bey which stops his rhythm. Myers kicks his feet out and causes Bey to crash. Eddie tags in for a few shots, then to JDC and Slingshot Knees, Wringer Snapmare, Bow and Arrow Submission, and JDC is just doing solid wrestling work right now. Uppercut between the Shoulder Blades as Bey tries to get out, tag to Myers and Bey is still eating offense. Eddie tags in, Bey tries the Sunset Flip, but Eddie tags out before going over, so Myers folds up Bey for a near fall and then tags out to JDC who connects on a Standing Suplex, slams Bey’s face into the corner, Eddie tags in, and Bey finally fights up to his feet, Eddie just flatten Bey’s comeback, tries a Tiger Driver but eats an Enzuigiri for a simultaneous tag. JDC and Hardy come in, JDC tries to exit halfway in, but Hardy is wrecking shop. He disposes of Eddie, Myers slides in but eats a tandem Neckbreaker/DDT from Hardy. Face team does the Delete Corner Face Smashes. Poetry in Motion into a Side Effect into Corkscrew Swanton for only 2 since Myers breaks it up! Everyone throwing hands, referee is distracted, Moose comes in to Spear Hardy, but Hardy dodges and throws him into JDC (I get the call back), Hendry then lays out Moose with the big Lariat. Twist of Fate from Hardy, Splash from Bey, Broken Alphabet wins!
Overall Score: 4/10
Ugh, cliche promos, too damn much talking, a competitive squash match with an imbecile as our first “match”, into an overbooked and slow heel match, finally a decent tag match (with the right team going over), into another overbooked match with a “tease” for the mystery backup being more obvious than Jericho’s WWF debut.
Aside from the afore mentioned tag match, The Rascalz promo and The System Promo; this was hard to watch. A lot of cornball promos, Rosemary licks her conspiracy board, storylines got zero traction. Whoopity Doo, Ryan Nemeth got a match next week and we get an undead wedding.
While this was a bad episode, it was bad by at least new standards. We’re not back in the TNA Dark Days again, but this was…a useless show.

No time to rap for Platinum Max, he and the Five Tool Player want to get to business! “CHIIICAAAAGOOO~! The Acclaimed have arrived! Scissor Me, Daddy Ass~!” And he does! But Jameson talks. This is Zero Hour and not Trios Hour because Billy is scared to get in the ring with Jameson, cuz he knows Jameson will knock him right out! Just like The Iron Savages are all fired up from sipping the new flavor of Savage Sauce, the Double Chocolate Chunk! They bring the BULK~! A mini-savage at ringside is given a headband, and Jameson says they’re taking all the Low T Meat Riders to TIDDY CITY!!
The teams sort out, and Bronson starts against Bowens. The fans rally as the two circle, fans sing “OH~ Scissor Me, Daddy!” Jameson says shut up, there’s no scissoring today! The two tie up, Bronson powers Bowens to the corner, then lets off, to fire haymakers! The ref counts, Bronson CHOPS, but Bowens CHOPS back! And CHOPS again! Bowens whips, Bronson reverses, but Bowens goes up and over! Then he hurdles Bronson to headlock. Bronson powers up and out, Bowens hurdles, ducks ‘n’ dodges, and FACEBUSTERS! Bowens taunts Boulder and the fans fire up. Bowens tags Caster, and The Acclaimed double whip.
Caster drops, Bowens bypasses, knee lift and NECKBREAKER! Boulder storms in, but into BOOTS! ROLLING ELBOW! FLYING RANA! Boulder stumbles to ropes, The Acclaimed DOUBLE DROPKICK him out!

The fans boo but Boulder stalks Caster to the apron.
Caster CLAWS Boulder’s face! And he TRIPS Bronson up! Caster goes back up to springboard and MISSILE DROPKICK! Direct hit but Boulder is still up! So Caster fireman’s carries!

Winners: The Acclaimed, by pinfall
A truly BIG win for Caster & Bowens to rebound from All In. But with Mansoor & Mason watching them closely, will The Acclaimed have to strut on the catwalk before they get on the road back to the titles?
Zero Hour – Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara & Holo.grm VS The Premier Athletes w/ Mark Sterling!
“Smart” Mark stops Arkady Aura from even starting as he introduces his team of Josh Woods, Tony Nese & Ariya Daivari. They have decided to let these Chicago losers take part in a winning team for once with a team building exercise. Even low IQ individuals can follow along. When Sterling says, “Athletes,” you all say, “Rock!” Nothing else! Hands in! Ohhhh~! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Sterling is already furious! But here comes Team Texas, just as we saw them last night on Collision! Will The Natural, The Spanish God and the cyberspace luchador prove these Premier Athletes aren’t ready for the gold?

Six Man Tag: Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara, Holo.grm & VS The Dark Order!
The ROH World Tag Team Champions have brought this gold from Texas to Chicago, and they also brought the shining star who has already captured the hearts of the fans. But will The Natural, The Spanish God and the futuristic luchador be a top tier trio? Or will Evil Uno, John Silver & Alex Reynolds prove #DarkOrderIsGood enough for golden opportunities?
The teams sort out and Hologram starts against Uno. The fans fire up for Hologram, but Uno offers a handshake? Hologram takes it, but Uno kicks low! Uno whips, Hologram handsprings to arm-drag! Hologram dodges Uno, goes up and over, then slips around to go to the apron! Then he goes to the other side, keeps moving, and Uno gets frustrated. Uno runs up, but into a GMAANGIRI!

Winners: Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara & Holo.grm, by pinfall
A great debut on Rampage for Hologram, a great win overall for the ROH World Tag Team Champions, will they keep this going until they’re dripping with gold?
The Bang Bang Gang speaks.
Juice Robinson says here’s the thing about the AEW Trios Division: You need momentum on your side. You ain’t gonna get the job done with a win here and there. You need to string ’em together, snowball effect. W after W after W! Austin says chill. They all want W’s, but there is something serious to address. Austin still doesn’t have a nickname! They’ve got Fully Cocked Colten Gunn! Rock Hard Juice Robinson! And… What do they have for Austin? Colten thinks on it. But in steps The Cage of Agony. Bishop Kaun says he has an idea: Ass Boy Austin! Oh, clever, clever. No right, here’s one: Runner Up in the Top Prospect Tournament!
Wow, that was a long time ago, Kaun. Not relevant. The Machine says there has to be a better one. Kaun has it now: Nepo Baby. What? Like he’s got a famous mom or something? Kaun says okay, no, this is the best: Former AEW World Trios Champion. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s just everyone here right now. Colten says that’s tough talk coming from the team that lost the ROH World Six Man titles to them. Cage says hey, Colten, you might be a “body guy” compared to the rest of this roster, but stepping to The Machine, watch your tone. Shake weights don’t count, Cage. Cage says the only reason Bang Bang Gang won cuz they had six guys at the time!
Nowadays, the three Bang Bang Gang won’t beat The Cage of Agony. Then let’s find out! If you’re not down with that, they have two words for ya! GUNS- Wait! The Cage of Agony block the finger guns! They clap their hands and say, “Gates, OPEN!” Toa Liona roars, Juice roars back, sorta. Will the Collision Cowboys be able to bring down these three behemoths? Or will they be caught inside The Cage of Agony?
BREAKING NEWS!
Lexy Nair says for the Zero Hour, there will be a TRIOS TRIPLE THREAT! Standing by are two of the three teams, Top Flight Crew’s Darius, Dante & Action, and Shane Taylor Promotions with Beast Mortos. But then the third team can be heard coming as Roderick Strong shouts “BEEEEAST!” Roddy thought Mortos was Kingdom! Shane says Mortos followed the money, so can he help them? Matt Taven says Mortos hasn’t learned the value of a dollar! Mike Bennett says Shane can’t help them, but they can help Shane, because surprise, guess who the third team is? Yeah, it’s The Kingdom. And there’s a BIG winner’s purse put on this one.
Not that it’s going to more matching outfits, Top Flight. The Kingdom leaves, Action says check it. In the end, it doesn’t matter whose side The Beast is on, it won’t be the winning side. And Top Flight IS. They will fly home with that guac. CHACHING~! So buckle up. Lee Moriarty has Shane and Mortos calm down. Will #TAIGASTYLE have just the plan to come away with that big money cash prize?
Friday Night Fashion Fight: The MXM Collection VS The House of Black!
It’s hard to say there are any rules outside the norm for this match, other than to dress to impress. Will Mansoor & Mason Madden prove that no matter what, they’re always the best dressed in the locker room? Or will Brody King & Buddy Matthews give them a makeover involving bruises, lacerations and hospital gowns?
Wait, who is this weirdo in the trash bag and oversized wood sandals? Why is he being carried out here? These are the judges for this Fashion Fight?!

Buddy swings on Mansoor but Mansoor stays in the ropes! The ref counts, Buddy lets off, and the judges give Buddy all threes! Yeah, definitely biased. Mansoor headlocks, Buddy powers out, and they RAM shoulders! Buddy doesn’t budge, and he headlocks for a takeover! Mansoor headscissors, Buddy kips free, then he avoids the sweep. Buddy headlocks, Mansoor powers up and out, but Buddy CLOBBERS him!
Mansoor gets up, Buddy blocks the kick and FLIPS Mansoor! Mansoor scrambles away, asks for a score, and Buddy gets a total of 4! Mansoor says he is still better than Buddy, and he tags Mason in. The Mahogany Hunk calls out the King of Death, and the fans bark it up! Buddy tags Brody, and Mason is all fired up! Brody stares Mason down, but then Mansoor tags in? Mansoor steps up to Brody, says eat this, and CHOPS! But Brody doesn’t budge! The judges still give all tens! But Brody CHOPS Mansoor! Mansoor falls, the judges can’t hep but admit, that was a seven. Mansoor RIPS that seven, and finds the “YOU SUCK” one among them!
But then Mansoor turns around, and Brody CROSSBODIES them all!! That’s a ten, as in, a STRIKE! The fans fire up as Brody holds up the ten! Mason runs up but Buddy FLYING KNEES him down! Mason is in a daze, Buddy holds up the ten, and Rampage goes picture in picture.

Will Ospreay speaks.
“I have been asked all day today, ‘How you feelin’, Will? You feelin’ alright?’ I dunno how you feel when you’ve taken a Poison-Rana on the stage and a brainbuster on some stage carts, mate, but yeah, hunky dury. I’m feeling great. I’m feeling great to cut these ties that bind myself to Pac. That’s history, right? See, Pac, everybody might know you as The Bastard right now, or maybe they know you as The Man Gravity Forgot. I know you as a UK backyard wrestler. You see, I could say words to you right now that’d perk your ears up that no one else knows. I could say stuff like Steve Farrow. I could say stuff like NAW.
“Because I’ve walked in your shoes. When I walked into that territory that you left, they’d say, ‘Man, you’re good. You ain’t Pac.’ They said the same thing on the UK independents. They said, ‘You’re good, but you’re not Pac.'” Ospreay made them all eat their words, and then he walked on the bridge Pac built, from England to Japan. Pac paved the way for him and Ospreay is thankful. But when Ospreay walked in there, they also said, “You’re good, but you’re not Pac.” Ospreay has been chasing Pac, and five years ago, Pac was Dragon Gate Dream Gate Champion, and Ospreay was NEVER Openweight Champion, and they didn’t get a decision. It was a 30 minute time limit draw.
You think Ospreay is satisfied with that? Nah, bruv! Ospreay’s still been chasing Pac! And here it is. Without even realizing it, Ospreay has lapped Pac. When Pac hit that rana, and Ospreay heard that crappy northern accent, “Don’t you underestimate me.” You thought Ospreay forgot? Nah, bruv. Ospreay could never forget Pac. Not all the work Pac’s done, not all the history they have. No one has forgotten about Pac. He just has been in this position so many times, we’ve lost faith. Wanna change it? Then there’s 24 hours left, bruv. These two may not have had their Wembley Moment together, but who walks away having won THE moment?
My Thoughts:
A great Rampage as part of the go-home night to All Out, though they of course accommodated the bleed over from Collision. Good stuff, already talked about it all for the Collision article, and I also touched on Moxley & Marina jumping The Outrunners with that article, too. It was easy heat for Moxley & Marina beating up on The Outrunners, who just had their big moment, but Moxley touched on not celebrating mediocrity and being humble in victory. Darby Allin will probably respond by saying this is just Moxley being a bully. Anyway, good win for Aminata, and Deeb watching her sets up how they’ll be feuding soon enough.
Good promo of Bang Bang Gang and Cage of Agony, and they’ll have a very good match, probably naming the winners the #1 contenders to the World Trios Championships. More than I can say for Premier Athletes. What business do Nese, Daivari & Woods have watching Dustin & Sammy like they’re gonna get any of the ROH titles off them? Nese, Daivari & Woods lose to all sorts of established names, Dustin, Sammy & The Von Erichs will be no different. But still a really good, really fun Six Man Tag of Dustin, Sammy & Hologram beating Dark Order. Dark Order really is a trio that should’ve been given more, but oh well.
Good promo segment from Kingdom, STP and Top Flight, with another of these kayfabe’d money prize matches happening just because. Like, title opportunities not being won here? I know Roddy is waiting to go after the FTW Championship, but why not have him & The Kingdom try to move up from ROH titles to AEW titles in this match? Though, Top Flight might be right. They won that $3000 trios royale thing a year or so ago, they might win this one so that they keep making money and building their budget for more airline pilot gimmick gear.
And while I was expecting a fashion show themed Street Fight, I suppose judges giving scores was good enough of a gag for this match. The fashion themed Street Fight would’ve probably been better, though. But the House of Black would’ve won out anyway, so best to do it in a standard rules match. And then a great promo from Ospreay to properly frame this feud with Pac. I do wish they would’ve let this be the All In match but whatever, this will still be a show stealer of a match for All Out. But as I said for Collision, and even Dynamite on Wednesday, Pac has been standing tall so the math favors Ospreay retaining the title.
My Score: 8.7/10
