00:00Unbeaten in singles competition thus far, I think Tessa Blanchard sees someone on the rise and wants to take down Indy Hartwell.

00:08I mean, look, if she wants to take down Indy Hartwell, because there's no doubt about it, you're right,

00:12the momentum is in the favor of Indy Hartwell in a lot of ways.

00:16If Tessa Blanchard wants to strike down some potential competition on the way to that title, I don't blame her.

00:22Jealousy is a bit of a reach for me, Hannifin.

00:25I mean, Tessa Blanchard is an accomplished athlete in her own right, winning titles all over the world.

00:31I don't think, quite frankly, either one of these two have anything to be jealous about with each other.

00:35I think Tessa Blanchard is jealous of the success that Indy Hartwell has had,

00:39former NXT Women's Tag Team Champion, former NXT Women's Champion.

00:42How Tessa joined us on commentary and said, Indy Hartwell's done nothing in this industry.

00:48Tessa's delusional, in my opinion.

00:50All right, now she's getting her clock cleaned, courtesy of her former friend, Indy Hartwell, no doubt about that.

00:57A referee, Frank Castano, charged with this matchup, contentious already in the early going.

01:03And let's not talk about the walking head case.

01:07Victoria Crawford on the outside, the X-Factor anywhere she goes.

01:12Hartwell stomping out.

01:14Tessa Blanchard in the court.

01:15Blanchard sliding to the outside, trying to avoid Indy Hartwell, trying to get Hartwell to chase.

01:26A little merry-go-round action here.

01:28Oh, and there's Blanchard to meet Hartwell at the ropes.

01:33And here's the thing, I'm worried for Indy Hartwell.

01:37If you've listened to her over the past several weeks, I told you she's very upfront about admitting what Tessa Blanchard did do for her.

01:44And that's, that's kind, that's well and good, that's humble.

01:47But here, this is the situation, you can't afford to be humble.

01:50I hope that Indy Hartwell's better nature, her good nature, doesn't cost her.

01:57Oh, now Blanchard, oh!

01:59Separating herself from Indy Hartwell.

02:04Lord knows that Tessa Blanchard is not going to have any good-natured intentions towards Indy Hartwell.

02:11Look at this, ooh!

02:16Oh my God!

02:18Just wrapping around, slamming the head of Indy Hartwell into the apron.

02:25Again, that nasty side of Blanchard that comes out in every time she steps in the ring.

02:33Now Hartwell tossed back inside the ring.

02:35Oh, Blanchard to meet Hartwell.

02:40Looking for a cover.

02:41Look to the leg, shoulders down, and a kickout.

02:43Listen, we understand the landscape.

02:45Come on, cover here amongst the knockouts.

02:48Still to come tonight, it's title versus title.

02:50Winner takes all.

02:51The TNA Knockouts World Champion, Masha Slamovich, versus the NXT Women's Champion, J.C. Jane.

02:57That is a gargantuan matchup, and at the same time, we talked about it on the countdown to Slammiversary.

03:03Ash by Elegance, one half of the Knockouts World Tag Team Champions.

03:07He's also the number one contender to the Knockouts World title.

03:11Cover here.

03:11Cover, oh, and a power out there by Hartwell.

03:13And there is certainly a line forming in the knockouts division.

03:17And right now, Indy Hartwell's not going to be standing in any lines for too long if Tessa Blanchard has her way here.

03:23Oh, open palm strike.

03:25That left leg to your point.

03:27Raywald is giving Hartwell trouble.

03:29Oh, my God.

03:30And I think Blanchard was going for a leg DDT.

03:35Close quarters there in the corner.

03:38It was a drag and screw kind of scenario.

03:40Either way, the leg just further tweaked.

03:42That's a smart move.

03:43I mean, Indy Hartwell has a pretty substantial height advantage over Tessa Blanchard.

03:49That just literally white-dumping Hartwell on the knee.

03:53Here's the cover kick out.

03:55Quite frankly, it chops the tree down, so to speak.

03:59Smart tactic here by Blanchard.

04:03I mean, credit where it's due.

04:05Hartwell keeps trying to get up to her feet.

04:07I just don't know how much more she can do.

04:11And this is certainly the toughest competition Indy Hartwell has faced thus far in her time here in TNA Wrestling.

04:17So we're going to learn a lot about Hartwell tonight, regardless of the outcome.

04:20Oh, and a shot right to the back of the knee.

04:23And he barely even gave all that force, and the knee just caught up in the rope there.

04:34Hartwell battling out of the corner.

04:36Hartwell knows what it means to be the underdog in a fight.

04:39Taken off her feet, however, by Blanchard.

04:41Here's the cover.

04:42Forearm in the face.

04:43Kick out by Hartwell.

04:44The ferocity, the tenacity of the undeniable diamond on display here.

04:52Again, Indy's having a hard time even just walking.

04:55I don't know how she's going to be able to mount any kind of comeback here.

04:59If Tessa keeps having her way like this.

05:04Hartwell had a brief flurry in the early stages of the matchup.

05:08It's been all Blanchard ever since, and an open palm strike.

05:11That right leg draped across the second rope, and Blanchard trying to do damage there.

05:17Very close range.

05:18Blanchard's done this a number of times.

05:20Trying to back Hartwell into the corners.

05:22Wait a second.

05:24Indy Hartwell managing to get a little bit of control of Blanchard here.

05:30But again, how much damage is done to the leg?

05:32How much stability does she have, especially in a top rope situation like this?

05:38Oh, now Blanchard off of the top.

05:42Holding on.

05:44Indy holding on.

05:45Let's go for a Sunset.

05:46The power bomb there, and a shot to the back of the right knee.

05:49Hartwell cannot afford to let things like that happen.

05:53Bad position here for Indy.

05:56Oh, and face first into the top turnbuckle.

05:59Look at the strength of Hartwell.

06:02Is it all her upper body strength that she's got?

06:04And Indy Hartwell showed up here tonight.

06:06And probably the best shape I've ever seen her in her career.

06:08Completely agree.

06:09Hartwell, however, trying to protect the knee as best she can.

06:13Can't seem to do it.

06:14It's hard.

06:15I mean, there's so much you do in that ring.

06:17You can't hide it.

06:20To base for anything at all.

06:22Hartwell chasing down Blanchard on the top turnbuckle.

06:32Hartwell taking a risk here.

06:35Going on to the ropes.

06:36Going after Blanchard.

06:38Can't waste any time, though.

06:39Now trying to soften up Tessa Blanchard here up on the top rope.

06:43Again, can she base for this?

06:46Look at this.

06:46It's all the way up top.

06:49Indy Hartwell with a superplex to Tessa Blanchard.

06:53That took a lot out of Hartwell, though, too.

06:57But it could be the opening she needed.

07:00What a crowd on hand tonight for our 21st annual Slammiversary live around the world on pay-per-view

07:10and TNA Plus at the UBS Arena on Long Island, New York.

07:14Right now, both Indy Hartwell and Tessa Blanchard down center of the ring.

07:23Both athletes trying to get back to a vertical base.

07:27Indy Hartwell on one leg, nonetheless.

07:30Now these two former friends, former roommates, go back so many years.

07:41Now just slugging it out in the center of the ring on TNA's biggest stage.

07:47Big shot there by Hartwell, sending Blanchard into the ropes.

07:55Hartwell standing and throwing strikes with Tessa Blanchard.

07:59Now Indy Hartwell lashing out.

08:11Hartwell on the move.

08:12Oh, and a knee right to the midsection.

08:14Tessa Blanchard slows up Hartwell.

08:16Great wherewithal from Blanchard able to slow things down, but not enough.

08:22And here on one leg, Indy Hartwell trying to turn this matchup around.

08:27Series of clotheslines there by Hartwell is trying to push the pace, but so difficult to do with the knees injured.

08:35Saw there gingerly trying to land as much on one leg as possible.

08:38Oh!

08:40Boot right to the face there by Hartwell.

08:42Blanchard down center of the ring.

08:45Hartwell's going to the top turnbuckle it looks like.

08:47The intense look in the eyes of Indy Hartwell tells the story.

08:52Hartwell, oh, the elbow to the spine.

08:56Here's the cover.

08:57Oh, and a power out there by Blanchard.

08:59That was a huge risk.

09:02It paid off for Hartwell, but not enough.

09:08You can't even see it there on the face of Indy Hartwell.

09:10What more does she have to do?

09:13What does she have to pull out of the playbook to put down a former world champion?

09:23Now Hartwell trying to get Tessa Blanchard back up to her feet.

09:27Trying to maybe go for Hertz Donut.

09:29Blanchard felt it coming.

09:33Pulls out one of the injured legs.

09:36Oh, it creates an opening.

09:37That left leg, however, is taking more damage at this point.

09:40Oh, now look at this.

09:42Tessa Blanchard going for a submission.

09:45Got the legs tied up in knots here.

09:49Hartwell, though, able to counter.

09:51Couldn't hold on to it.

09:52Hold on.

09:52There was a cover.

09:54Close range.

09:55Super kick there by Blanchard.

09:57Hartwell to the outside.

09:59Now Blanchard picking up steam here.

10:03Tessa Blanchard wiping out Hartwell.

10:10Blanchard digging in to that Lucha Libre background she honed in Mexico.

10:14Is that enough to open the door to get a win here?

10:22Is it enough?

10:22Cover hook to the leg and a kick out.

10:26Now it's Blanchard's face who's telling the tale.

10:29The disappointment.

10:30It's taken a lot more to put down her former friend than I think even she may have anticipated.

10:37But now, is this the moment Blanchard could be looking to put things away here?

10:52Look at the strength of Indy Hartwell trying to hang on here against Blanchard.

10:57Blanchard to the center of the ring.

10:59Hartwell in pursuit.

11:00Now on the move.

11:01Oh, the spine buster there by Hartwell.

11:04Hook to the leg.

11:05Is this enough?

11:06Oh, and a power out by Blanchard.

11:07Both these women have hit some of the biggest shots in their arsenal and still has not been enough to put either one away.

11:23First time these two have called one-on-one in seven years.

11:27Hartwell and Blanchard trying to separate themselves.

11:32You can see the gears trying to turn in Indy Hartwell's head.

11:35And again here, trying to maybe hook it.

11:39Once it hurts, donut.

11:43As the Blanchard feels it coming, well scouted.

11:46Got to give credit to Blanchard on that front.

11:48Hold on, now Blanchard.

11:50Oh, wait a minute.

11:50Caught with a head scissors.

11:52Blanchard able to escape.

11:54Wait a second.

11:55Oh.

11:57Big forearm shiver there by Blanchard.

12:00Floating over.

12:01Hell of a counter there.

12:04Uh-oh.

12:05Oh, the Tiger driver.

12:07Here's the cover.

12:08Oh, and a kick out by Hartwell.

12:11And Blanchard can't believe it.

12:14But there was a little less oomph behind that kick out if you ask me.

12:21Indy Hartwell is starting to feel it.

12:23Take a look at this.

12:24The Tiger bomb.

12:25Absolutely perfectly done.

12:29But Indy Hartwell just barely able to kick out.

12:33And now it is Blanchard who scales the ropes.

12:37Hartwell in her sights.

12:38Could be thinking magnum.

12:40Oh, wait a minute.

12:42Instead went after the knee there of Hartwell.

12:45Blanchard trying to figure out how to put this thing away.

12:48Is it time?

12:49Oh!

12:49Base first.

12:50Hertz donut.

12:52Cover.

12:53Oh, and a kick out by Tessa Blanchard.

12:57However, I don't think Indy Hartwell got all of Hertz donut the way she typically has done.

13:05And now, though, you see Indy Hartwell just trying to get some life back into this matchup.

13:16Digging down deep into the arsenal.

13:24Hartwell sending Blanchard into the top turnbuckle.

13:30Hartwell trying to think of something big here.

13:32Went for one of her best moves in her arsenal.

13:35Granted, didn't get all of it.

13:37But still, got to figure out a way to put away Blanchard here at Slammiversary.

13:41What is she thinking here?

13:43What is it going to the head of Indy Hartwell as Blanchard fights back?

13:47Shots right to the back of the neck there by Blanchard.

13:50Dangerous situation here for both these knockouts.

13:54Connor over the top by Blanchard.

13:57And not done yet.

13:58Immediately going back to the buckle.

14:00There's Blanchard thinking Magnum once again.

14:09Hartwell is stunned.

14:10There it is!

14:12Magnum!

14:13Cover!

14:14Oh, what a kick out by Indy Hartwell!

14:20How?

14:22How is there still life in Indy Hartwell after all this punishment?

14:26The punishment to the leg.

14:27The brutality of Blanchard.

14:29Versus this.

14:31This cutter.

14:33Hartwell was on the second rope.

14:35And Blanchard immediately follows it up with Magnum.

14:39No one has been able to kick out of Magnum since Tessa Blanchard returned to this company back in December.

14:46And Blanchard cannot believe it.

14:49Oh!

14:50Kick right to the face.

14:51And now will the frustration overwhelm Tessa Blanchard?

14:55We've seen that happen in the past.

14:56And I can't blame her for letting the temper flare.

15:03Oh!

15:06That's just how personal this thing has gotten.

15:09It's gotten so physical at this point now, too.

15:12Wait a second.

15:13Oh, now Hartwell!

15:14Hartwell!

15:14Oh!

15:15And for Hurts, don't it into the ropes!

15:17Threw first!

15:17Face first!

15:19What a sequence by Hartwell!

15:21Enough!

15:22Indy Hartwell's beaten Tessa Blanchard!

15:26Here is our winner, Indy Hartwell!

15:33A hard-fought victory in a very physical matchup from Indy Hartwell here.

15:45Indy Hartwell persevered and overcame Tessa Blanchard tonight at Slammiversary.

15:52What a sequence there down the stretch.

15:54First donut into the top rope and immediately followed it up.

15:58Very smart.

15:59Hartwell withstood it all and came out victorious.

16:05Yes!

16:11I'm going to wait.

16:12I can't see what he's doing.

16:17He was a big fan of, I can't see what he really Raskewサk means so as soon as

16:28I swear by the Slammiversary because of it from the time, if I don't feel it completely

16:32beautiful and so what he's doing, he's getting together at the stage, you get out of!
