Eddie Edwards (w/ The System) def. BDE
Eddie started strong, countering BDE’s springboard crossbody and back superplex. After a chop on BDE’s chest, he hit a Boston Knee Party for the win. Post-match, The System attacked BDE, but Fabian Aichner and Leon Slater saved him with a triple superkick to the outside. Ed: “Edward’s wrestling like a man who refuses to let go of that spotlight!”

Santino Marella & Indi Hartwell def. Stacks & Arianna Grace
The mixed tag match saw Stacks tag in Arianna Grace early, but Indi Hartwell interfered and attacked Santino from behind. The finish came when Grace accidentally used The Cobra on Stacks, prompting Santino and Hartwell to strike both with stereo Cobras for the victory. Ed: “Marella is playing the game like chess — and tonight he moved his pieces perfectly!”

Mr. Elegance def. Lei Ying Lee
Lee dominated early, but The Elegance Brand interference was ejected. Xia Brookside distracted Lee, allowing Mr. Elegance to capitalize with an Excusez-Moi for the upset win. Brookside later announced she would challenge Lee for the TNA Knockouts World Championship at Slammiversary. Gordon: “A most significant victory — Brookside has placed herself squarely in the championship conversation.”

[Wicked Garden Match] The Righteous def. The Hardys
The inaugural Wicked Garden Match saw Vincent and Dutch defeat “Broken” Matt Hardy and Brother Nero (Jeff Hardy). The match ended with the lights going out and The Hardys disappearing. Gordon: “A most opportunistic victory — The Righteous continues to thrive in the shadows.”
