00:01:33You are, I am Ryan
00:01:37You are, I am Ryan
00:01:41TNA, did you miss me?
00:02:11You know, it's been a long road, I here am in this ring, in this company where my name
00:02:28was built, I am the phenomenal A.J. Stiles!
00:02:35You know, there was a time when they said, you may not be able to come back.
00:02:42But here I am, and I'm telling you, the lights are a little bit brighter here.
00:02:54The crowd is a little bit louder here!
00:03:01And Leon, the talent's better than it's ever been.
00:03:09You deserve it!
00:03:24You deserve it!
00:03:28Hey Leon, don't listen to him, you don't deserve it.
00:03:36You earned it!
00:03:46Leon Slater!
00:03:50The youngest X Division champion in TNA history!
00:03:55Let that sink in!
00:04:02You didn't just impress me tonight, Leon.
00:04:07You made me realize why I love this business.
00:04:12It's guys like you who make people like me love what they do.
00:04:19So thank you for that.
00:04:26Twenty-nineć°æ!
00:04:30Twentynyć°æ!
00:04:37Twentynyć°æ!
00:04:43Twentynyć°æ!
00:04:44One of the biggest nights in TNA history in some of the brightest lights.
00:04:48One more match, one more match, one more match, one more match, one more match, one more match, one more match.
00:05:01Let me just talk about Leon for a second.
00:05:04We'll get back to that match.
00:05:09You showed everybody tonight that it's not about weight limits.
00:05:16It's about no limits.
00:05:24At least that was the foundation when I started.
00:05:27When I was in the exhibition, it was AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels, Samoa Joe, Frankie Kazarian, the amazing Red Homicide, Jerry Lynn.
00:05:44We were the foundation back then.
00:05:46But you, Leon, you are the future.
00:05:50And I would say that the X Division is in phenomenal hands, my friend.
00:05:57So, you've already made history tonight.
00:06:07The next step is to make your legacy.
00:06:12Ladies and gentlemen, the new TNA X Division champion, Leon Slater!
00:06:24From the first face of TNA Wrestling to now the future of TNA.
00:06:45There's a lot of smoke and mirrors in our business.
00:06:57There's nothing more real than what we just saw.
00:07:00This was a moment we always hoped for, for the prodigal son to come home.
00:07:19It's a lot of smoke and mirrors in high school belts.
00:07:20There's nothing more real than going to us.
00:07:22For the fabric of violence, they've got people filled up and
00:07:30They've got folks into a magic position.
00:07:32This is the pit of business and the battle of our eyes.
00:07:33amy bears who have more potential, and we get the destinies world'dx.
00:07:35We've seen some guys alto and out, come in and that we've done.
00:07:36Come in and let's dive.
00:07:37Can I see them we just stare all out.
00:07:38Played around the Emang Cerami's and I beat the Versailles.
00:07:39Now, Prom with this forward and zich to call him hostage.
00:07:41Now, climb on AJ a.k.a.
00:07:43Vineheart.
00:07:44Climb on look and I've been so far, that's it's where my mind's going.
00:08:16The greatest star in the history of TNA Wrestling, AJ Styles, returns home at Slammiversary.
00:08:57Off your order at shopagame.com.
00:09:00We welcome you back to the A-Game Hydration Announce.
00:09:05Yes, I'm Tom Hannafinis, the Drama King, Matthew Raywald.
00:09:08We are all still trying to collect ourselves after what we just saw.
00:09:11I cried.
00:09:12I definitely cried.
00:09:13I don't know about you.
00:09:14I mean, the emotions were very, very high for good reason.
00:09:18What an incredible, very real, raw moment here at Slammiversary.
00:09:22Well, the action continues tonight.
00:09:25It is the most phenomenal Slammiversary in history.
00:09:29We are moments away from seeing a four-team ladder match for the TNA World Tag Team Titles
00:09:36as the Nemeth Brothers defend against the Rascals, First Class, and the Hardys.
00:09:41However, we have plenty of guests this evening here in Long Island, New York.
00:09:45Raywald, joining us here in the Impact Zone.
00:09:48Well, he's the hometown man.
00:09:50There he is.
00:09:52Again, we can't seem to get rid of him.
00:09:54He shows up everywhere we go.
00:09:57And, of course, the hometown crowd in full support of the quote-unquote hometown man.
00:10:03The hometown man defeated Eric Young earlier on tonight on the countdown to Slammiversary
00:10:07in an impromptu matchup.
00:10:09And I guess Cody Deter, the hometown man.
00:10:12We're not settling this right here.
00:10:13Very, very complicated.
00:10:15But we are very, very proud of everything that's happened.
00:10:18And we mentioned this is the A-Game hydration announcement.
00:10:21That's right.
00:10:22A-Game was founded by Johnny Damon, two-time World Series champion,
00:10:28once with the Boston Red Sox, we won't mention that,
00:10:30and the New York Yankees.
00:10:32Johnny Damon, thank you for sponsoring Slammiversary with A-Game,
00:10:37and also Zach Clayton, who we've seen compete at TNA Wrestling Ring,
00:10:41joining us this evening for Slammiversary.
00:10:44Johnny Damon, I loved you on below deck.
00:10:49You're fanboy right now.
00:10:50Well, ladies and gentlemen, right now,
00:10:52we want to get set for this four-team ladder match
00:10:55for the TNA World Tag Team titles.
00:10:57Could it be the Hardys' last?
00:11:03We've always wanted to be very honest with ourselves,
00:11:06and we both promised ourselves
00:11:08that we would never, ever be a shell
00:11:11of the team we once were.
00:11:13Since we've lost the TNA World Tag Team titles,
00:11:17we've also lost quite a few matches.
00:11:21Ryan Nemeth just pinned Jeff Hardy
00:11:23to win the TNA World Tag Team titles.
00:11:27Hell just froze over.
00:11:30It's time for another resurrection.
00:11:32If we don't win the World Tag Team titles back at Slammiversary,
00:11:38maybe it's time for the Hardy Party to end.
00:11:40See, if this was the year 2000,
00:11:44then yes, the Hardys could beat First Class.
00:11:46As far as Slammiversary is concerned,
00:11:49First Class is the uncrowned world champions.
00:11:53We're worried about the rascals.
00:11:55Wentz is in the foot out for the tag team champions.
00:11:58We're worried about the Nimitz.
00:12:01I mean, the Hardys,
00:12:02you're not even the best brother tag team in TNA.
00:12:06No one can do what we do the way we do it,
00:12:09and we are never, ever sick at sea.
00:12:11So if you're looking for the greatest brother tag team
00:12:13in the history of pro wrestling,
00:12:15you're looking at them, brother.
00:12:18No!
00:12:19The Nimitz jumping the Hardys!
00:12:22There's one more piece of this puzzle
00:12:26for Slammiversary!
00:12:28The rascals are here!
00:12:30As the Hardys one more time
00:12:33climb the solid steel!
00:12:35Could they be coming back down
00:12:37with tag team gold at Slammiversary?
00:12:45Well, right now, let's take a look at the tag lines
00:12:47ahead of this four-team ladder match
00:12:50for the TNA World Tag Team Titles.
00:12:52KC Navarro at first class
00:12:53is competing with an injured left knee.
00:12:55Meanwhile, Myron Reed is substituting in
00:12:58for Trey Miguel of the Rascals,
00:13:00who is out due to a hernia.
00:13:01This is Ryan Nemitz' first ever ladder match.
00:13:05Meanwhile, this is the Hardys'
00:13:0718th ladder match as a duo.
00:13:10But, as we heard this past Thursday on Impact,
00:13:12could it be their last?
00:13:14The tag titles hang above the ring
00:13:16tonight at Slammiversary.
00:13:20The following is a pay-to-for ladder match
00:13:35The following is a Fatal 4 ladder match for
00:13:48the TNA World Town Team Championship.
00:13:55Introducing first the challenger,
00:13:58the team of Myron Lee and Zachary Wynn,
00:14:02the Rascals.
00:14:07The Rascals coming in here with a substitution,
00:14:11but it's a hell of a substitution.
00:14:14And Myron Reed, a rascal in his own right.
00:14:18So this fam, these boys from the Treehouse, they run deep, they run thick.
00:14:24So luckily, at this momentous moment, they still have family by their side.
00:14:29Speaking of family, Myron Reed's here tonight features pictures of his children,
00:14:33Milo, Axel, and Ruby, his Beyonce, Kelly, his little sister who is unfortunately no longer with us,
00:14:40Kennedy, his baby sister, Journey, and his mom, Erica.
00:14:44Meanwhile, Zach Wentz, an animal lover, carrying a picture of his cat,
00:14:47pretty boy who just passed away.
00:14:50A lot of honor and family on the side of the Rascals.
00:14:54We outside, we outside, we outside, we outside, yeah, we outside, we gon' slide.
00:15:22Don't ask me why I met, you already know why I beat.
00:15:27I ain't high in front of no cameras, I'm outside, I ain't why I beat.
00:15:31Me and my brothers outside today, on the damn metal of the Cabaret.
00:15:34Seen that rollercoaster drive away, then she was in my bed on Saturday.
00:15:38Different day, different rips, different day, different chick, 3-0 black, he different.
00:15:41You can play with them switches, you see that system, stop being different.
00:15:45I come from the south side, these rappers ain't outside, they be perpetrating.
00:15:48I think now I'm sliding, yeah, yeah, we outside, we outside, we really outside, Tate Rock, we really outside.
00:16:11First Class has got an entourage this evening, 3-0 black performing First Class' theme song,
00:16:17accompanying A.J. Francis and K.C. Navarro, Tay Rock, Lady Caution, Chess,
00:16:22Zach Paschal from the New York Giants, and Kazim Famuride,
00:16:26who's a huge media star here in the New York sports world.
00:16:30Yeah, I've done some broadcasting with Kaz on fourth row.
00:16:33Yes!
00:16:34What's he doing out here with First Class?
00:16:36He didn't tell me he was going to be here.
00:16:37Meanwhile, A.J. Francis paying homage to the Notorious B.I.G. with his gear this evening.
00:16:43K.C. Navarro, as I mentioned, is dealing with a left knee injury that I'm told is significant,
00:16:48but it speaks to the willpower and strength of K.C. Navarro.
00:17:09Next, from the Hardy compound in Cameron, North Carolina, the team of Matt and Jeff Hardy.
00:17:27This is Matt Hardy's 33rd ladder match.
00:17:30It is Jeff Hardy's 39th ladder match.
00:17:34It is Jeff Hardy's 6th Slammiversary.
00:17:38Matt Hardy's 4th Slammiversary.
00:17:41The Hardys, by the numbers, have got to be arguably the greatest tag team in the history of professional wrestling.
00:17:49However, it's been rocky ever since losing the titles to the Nemeth brothers back at Rebellion.
00:17:56And they have been very upfront about that fact.
00:17:59They've been very upfront and honest about the fact that they are in the latter years of their career,
00:18:04but they want to prove that they can still go at the highest level,
00:18:09or else that time might be coming faster than we think.
00:18:14And they are the Teenage World Tag Team Champions, Bryan and Nick Nemeth.
00:18:40Now, Nick Nemeth has competed in 14 ladder matches.
00:18:45He made a name for himself in WWE's Money in the Bank ladder match.
00:18:49However, he's not been in a ladder match in eight years.
00:18:52Meanwhile, as I mentioned moments ago, Bryan Nemeth's never been in a ladder match.
00:18:57Okay, yeah, but did you know that when he was in third grade, he wrote a script and his first ever one got an A- on it?
00:19:06Wow, that's impressive.
00:19:07The bell is rung.
00:19:08This four-team ladder match for the TNA World Tag Team titles is underway.
00:19:13And Ryan Nemeth getting a rude introduction to ladder match etiquette.
00:19:20Yeah, that's one way to see it.
00:19:21Oh, my God!
00:19:22And so is Casey Navarro.
00:19:25The Hardys here controlling the ring with this ladder.
00:19:30Taking down the 330-pounder, AJ Francis.
00:19:33Early on, the Hardys are controlling the ring.
00:19:36The Hardys have got to be ecstatic to have seen Leon Slater capture the X Division title earlier on tonight.
00:19:43Of course, seeing AJ Styles earlier on this evening, I still have goosebumps from that.
00:19:49Been an absolutely electric and history-making night, and we're not even done.
00:19:56Now we're having a ladder match.
00:19:57Uh-oh.
00:19:58Oh!
00:19:59Nick Nemeth suplexed into the ladder by Matt Hardy.
00:20:02Nemeth cannot get out of the blocks here in a desert perpetual of pain is one half of the tag team champions.
00:20:11The Hardys coming on strong here early.
00:20:14I mentioned Leon Slater.
00:20:15He was trying to talk some sense into the Hardys this past Thursday on Impact,
00:20:19trying to motivate them and get them focused on reclaiming the tag team titles.
00:20:24And again, the Hardys have been very upfront about if they can't do this at the rate that they believe they should,
00:20:31at this highest rate, most extreme, which they've built the foundations of their career on,
00:20:36then maybe it's time for them to say goodbye.
00:20:38The Hardys starting to climb, trying to reach for the TNA World Tag Team titles.
00:20:43You have to unlock one belt to win the matchup.
00:20:47Now the Hardys dropped down by A.J. Francis, and I've said it many times, A.J. Francis is a difference maker.
00:20:55The biggest win in this match by far, no doubt about it.
00:21:00And now Myron Reed, this is the biggest opportunity of his career, and he gets smoked by Francis.
00:21:09Now it is Francis and Navarro starting to take control of the ring.
00:21:15For those of you not familiar with Myron Reed, he is what we call an original rascal,
00:21:20has been teaming with Zachary Wentz elsewhere in professional wrestling for the last eight years.
00:21:26So plenty of familiarity between those two.
00:21:28But this is a huge situation for Myron Reed to be a late substitution for Trey Miguel.
00:21:34You want to, of course, send our thoughts and our love to Trey Miguel.
00:21:38I know he's at home watching this right now.
00:21:40Our boy Trey, get better soon.
00:21:43Oh, dear God.
00:21:44A.J. Francis running right into Ryan Nemeth.
00:21:47Now Nick Nemeth gets clocked.
00:21:50He's got Myron Reed and the ladder in hand.
00:21:54Just molly whopping fools in here.
00:21:57Oh, down goes Jeff Hardy.
00:21:59A.J. Francis clearing the field and a world strongest slam to Myron Reed into the ladder.
00:22:07Casey Navarro more than happy to smile and watch as the destruction is laid out.
00:22:17Throwing the ladder up.
00:22:22Wait a second.
00:22:23Are they really going to try this?
00:22:26There's plenty of ladders.
00:22:29The assist here by A.J. Francis.
00:22:32They tried to pull this at Ultimate X back at Rebellion when the X Division title was at stake.
00:22:38And look out.
00:22:39Oh, and Zachary Wentz wipes out first class.
00:22:42Long way down for Casey Navarro there.
00:22:49Do you ever wish you could be in one more ladder match?
00:22:53I haven't been in any ladder matches.
00:22:54Oh, I thought you had been.
00:22:55No.
00:22:56I somehow avoided that one.
00:22:58Yeah, you're lucky.
00:22:59And now Myron Reed.
00:23:01Oh, and the kick right to the back of the neck of A.J. Francis.
00:23:04Double knees there by Wentz.
00:23:07Myron Reed now.
00:23:10What's he got in mind?
00:23:11Toss to the outside, but wait back in.
00:23:13Code breaker there by Myron Reed, the young goat.
00:23:17Beautiful rebound there.
00:23:20And now, what has Wentz got in mind here?
00:23:24What the hell are the Rascals thinking about here?
00:23:30Wentz and Reed gonna ride the steel.
00:23:33Crashing down on A.J. Francis.
00:23:40Could another iteration of the Rascals capture the TNA World Tag Team titles tonight?
00:23:45And look out.
00:23:46Oh!
00:23:47Flame on!
00:23:48Flame on!
00:23:51Absolutely unreal from Myron Reed.
00:23:54Holy shit!
00:23:55Holy shit!
00:23:56Holy shit!
00:23:57Holy shit!
00:23:58Holy shit!
00:23:59Meanwhile, Francis still laid out in the center of the ring.
00:24:02Take another look back, though.
00:24:03Myron Reed to the outside.
00:24:07Good God.
00:24:09The cutter to the outside calls that flame on.
00:24:12And now look at this.
00:24:14A.J. Francis is pinned under the ladder as Zachary Wentz is starting to climb.
00:24:19Wait a second.
00:24:20Francis lifting the ladder.
00:24:22And oh!
00:24:23And oh!
00:24:24Wentz into Navarro splitting the ladder.
00:24:27For the love of Lodi, my God!
00:24:31That ladder just snapped.
00:24:33And now Francis going to check on Casey Navarro.
00:24:37And he wasn't hurt before, he is now.
00:24:41He's gonna be an economy after this.
00:24:43First class might be down to A.J. Francis.
00:24:46He might have to do this on his own.
00:24:48Now Francis, oh!
00:24:51Slowed up by Matt Hardy.
00:24:53Justin, the nick of time.
00:24:54The Hardys back into the fray here.
00:24:58With not only the titles, but potentially their legacy on the line.
00:25:02Twist of fate!
00:25:03The titles hanging in the balance here at the UDS Arena on Long Island, New York.
00:25:08Boom!
00:25:09Swat on bomb!
00:25:10The Hardys trying to eliminate the largest man in this match, A.J. Francis.
00:25:23Francis, taking more damage than a raid boss on contest mode, finally eliminated from the ring.
00:25:29And the Hardys have the moment to climb.
00:25:36Matt and Jeff trying to get to the titles.
00:25:38What an angle we have there.
00:25:40Now the Nemeth brothers taking down the Hardys.
00:25:43The Nemeths who believe they're the greatest brother tag team in the history of TNA and all of professional wrestling.
00:25:51Oh!
00:25:52Big Hollywood ending there by Ryan Nemeth.
00:25:56Meanwhile, Matt Hardy looking for a side effect fought off by-
00:26:00A Nick Danger Zone!
00:26:03And now the tag team champions have cleared the ring.
00:26:12What are you doing here?
00:26:13Ryan Nemeth.
00:26:14He's talking trash to Johnny Damon.
00:26:19I don't know how wise that is.
00:26:24Oh!
00:26:25Johnny Damon!
00:26:26Shove Ryan Nemeth!
00:26:27Hey, look.
00:26:28I know there's no DQ, but come on, man!
00:26:30Johnny Damon, this isn't the first time he's gotten involved in a TNA event.
00:26:34It's been 20 years since that fateful turning point.
00:26:40Well, either way, the tag team champions can't be too bothered.
00:26:43They gotta focus on climbing that ladder and getting those titles.
00:26:47The Nemeth brothers believe they have an opportunity.
00:26:50Trying to climb the ladders.
00:26:53Trying to unhook one of the title belts to win this matchup.
00:26:56Well, now Myron Reed in pursuit.
00:26:59In pursuit.
00:27:00Zachary Wentz on the back of Nick Nemeth.
00:27:02Look at this.
00:27:03Four men sharing one ladder.
00:27:05That's dangerous.
00:27:06Oh, wait a minute.
00:27:07Wait.
00:27:08Casey Navarro is back into the fight.
00:27:11Tipping everybody over.
00:27:17Now Navarro.
00:27:18Navarro with a steel chair.
00:27:19Going after Myron Reed.
00:27:23No disqualification.
00:27:24First team to climb the ladder and unhook one of the title belts.
00:27:27Will be the TNA World Tag Team Champions.
00:27:30Navarro trying to clear the field for first class.
00:27:37We've already seen a ladder busted as if it was a table.
00:27:47Wait a second, Navarro.
00:27:50What the hell is Casey thinking here?
00:27:53Moving the ladder a little to the off center over to the corner there.
00:27:57And meanwhile AJ France has been rearranging furniture on the outside.
00:28:01Meanwhile, Jeff Hardy's doing the same.
00:28:03We saw Matt and Jeff Hardy completely reimagined Full Metal Mayhem at this past year's bound for glory to cap off that triple main event.
00:28:12I can only imagine what's going through everybody's heads in this match.
00:28:16What in the hell is happening?
00:28:19AJ, you're a little off, buddy.
00:28:22What is this man thinking?
00:28:27Oh my God, the world's largest moonsault!
00:28:34Holy hell!
00:28:36Good God!
00:28:39Take another look, believe it if you can.
00:28:51AJ Francis, the biggest man in this match by far.
00:28:56Moonsaulting off the ladder.
00:29:00Absolutely unreal.
00:29:04But does AJ Francis now have a clear path to grab one of the championships?
00:29:11He has a clear path to two of them.
00:29:15All by himself, but Navarro.
00:29:17The legs starting to get the better of him, but climbing nonetheless.
00:29:21KC Navarro joining AJ Francis on the climb.
00:29:26Will they be able to capture the TNA World Tag Team titles?
00:29:30The fingertips are there, they're so very close.
00:29:33And wait.
00:29:34Hold on a sec, Myra Reid, Zachary Wentz.
00:29:39Oh, good lord.
00:29:40Oh, first class through the ladders!
00:29:43Good God!
00:29:50Francis and Navarro were bent up in that ladder.
00:29:55Two more ladders demolished at ringside.
00:30:00Watch this one more time.
00:30:03Navarro and Francis smashing into these ladders.
00:30:07Look at the leg of AJ Francis.
00:30:10Good God!
00:30:13A nasty landing if I've ever seen one.
00:30:16Back inside the ring, the Rascals trying to climb the ladder,
00:30:19trying to get to the titles, but there are the Hardys attempting to delete the Rascals.
00:30:25Fnz has no idea where he's in!
00:30:31He's in there with his idols but he's.
00:30:34No kidding, he's been deleted two ways from Sunday!
00:30:40Back over a twist effect-
00:30:41Oh!
00:30:42A cutter!
00:30:43The expression, a plot twist here by the Hardys!
00:30:46And now a side effect by Matt Hardy!
00:30:49He won that!
00:30:50Yeah!
00:30:53What is now going through the mind of the charismatic enigma here?
00:31:02More destruction, perhaps.
00:31:07The Hardys believe they have to go all out tonight at Slammiversary
00:31:12to win the TNA World Tag Team titles, to prove themselves to the world.
00:31:18And they are doing just that.
00:31:20What is going through?
00:31:21Matt Hardy laying out Zachary Wentz on one of these ladders.
00:31:25And now, oh, God.
00:31:29The twisted mind of the Hardys here.
00:31:34Oh, wait a second.
00:31:40What?
00:31:40Jeff Hardy here.
00:31:42Oh, God.
00:31:43Going up top.
00:31:46From the twist of fate to riding the very edge of fate.
00:31:50Nice.
00:31:51Wow, Todd Bob to the Rascals.
00:31:54Into the ladders.
00:32:02Jeff Hardy.
00:32:03One wasn't good enough.
00:32:05He wants absolute destruction.
00:32:08The Hardys trying to eliminate all the other teams.
00:32:12Swat, Todd Bob.
00:32:14Destroying the Rascals.
00:32:20Good Lord.
00:32:31Seemingly every ladder out here at ringside has been demolished, Tom.
00:32:37How is anybody going to climb and grab those tag team titles?
00:32:41Take a look back here.
00:32:42Here's how the last ones were destroyed by Jeff Hardy against the Rascals.
00:32:48The Swanton Bomb.
00:32:50Into the ladder.
00:32:52But right now, back to live action.
00:32:53What the hell are the Hardys doing?
00:32:55I think Matt Hardy is going to the back to look for a fresh ladder.
00:32:58But Jeff Hardy is looking to the sky.
00:33:01What the hell?
00:33:04Jeff Hardy.
00:33:06What has he got in his hand?
00:33:09What the hell?
00:33:10Oh, my God.
00:33:13What?
00:33:15What is this?
00:33:15Batman 1966?
00:33:19All the other ladders are broken.
00:33:22And Jeff Hardy does reimagine the ladder match.
00:33:27And now Matt Hardy.
00:33:28I got a ladder just in case.
00:33:30Even he's caught off guard.
00:33:32Yeah, Matt Hardy's at the top of the stage.
00:33:34Confuses all hell.
00:33:36This is the most TNA thing I think I've ever seen.
00:33:41The game continues to change.
00:33:45Jeff Hardy beginning to climb.
00:33:47Oh, now the Nemeth brothers trying to get Jeff Hardy.
00:33:51My God.
00:33:53This is incredibly dangerous.
00:33:57Oh, the Nemeth brothers trying to protect their tag team titles.
00:34:01By any means necessary.
00:34:03Gouging at the eyes of Jeff Hardy.
00:34:05Oh, now Ryan Nemeth starting to climb.
00:34:07Oh, and Matt Hardy cracking him with a ladder.
00:34:13Oh, down goes Ryan.
00:34:16Super kick by Nick Nemeth.
00:34:19Now Ryan trying to hold it for Nick there.
00:34:22Nick Nemeth trying to get to the championships.
00:34:28Hardy.
00:34:29Jeff Hardy's got his hands on him.
00:34:32Jeff Hardy dragging Nick Nemeth back down to the mat.
00:34:36Oh.
00:34:37The chair coming into play.
00:34:43Paying dividends for Matt Hardy here.
00:34:47The Nemeth's been a thorn in the side of the Hardys for months now.
00:34:50The ringside area is pure wreckage.
00:35:00Everyone on their feet here at the UBS arena.
00:35:03Look at this.
00:35:04The twisted minds of the Hardys.
00:35:07Deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep.
00:35:14Dalling twists of fate with the chairs.
00:35:21Have the Nemeth brothers been taken out of the equation?
00:35:24And now, Hardy holding the base.
00:35:30Can Jeff Hardy now use this ingenious and twisted idea
00:35:35to climb once again to tag team glory?
00:35:40Jeff Hardy on the ascent.
00:35:46The Hardys have done it again.
00:35:54Here are your winners and new TNA World Tag Team Champions,
00:36:11the Hardys.
00:36:15Leave it to the Hardys at 30 plus years in the game
00:36:21to somehow entirely reinvent how to win a damn ladder match.
00:36:29Holy crap.
00:36:31The Hardys have enjoyed a renaissance since the return to TNA Wrestling,
00:36:36and they have reimagined every last scenario they have walked into.
00:36:42They wanted to prove that they could still do this at the highest level.
00:36:52They've done just that.
00:36:54Take a look back at some of the early action.
00:36:56Francis, the powerhouse, exploiting everyone.
00:37:00Ladders and bodies flying absolutely everywhere.
00:37:05Now, as this match continued, the bodies were broken,
00:37:13and the ladders were broken.
00:37:16First class taken out in a horrific way at ringside,
00:37:21and ultimately, this ingenious use of a ladder by Jeff Hardy
00:37:26helped Matt and Jeff Hardy capture their fourth TNA World Tag Team Championship.
00:37:33An absolutely game-changing way to reclaim your place
00:37:42at the top of the tag team mountain here in TNA.
00:37:47The ultimate innovators do it yet again.
00:37:51Oh my God!!!
00:38:07TNA Hall of Famers!!
00:38:11TNA World Tag Team 3D!!
00:38:153D, Bully Ray!
00:38:23A man who wreaked havoc on this company for nearly a year.
00:38:29Watch that, I mean, history both good and bad with both the Hardys.
00:38:34What is on the mind of Bully Ray?
00:38:41Bully Ray surveying the carnage.
00:38:45And locking eye to eye with two old friends and two old foes.
00:39:15Watch out, watch out, watch out!
00:39:17Allow me to be the first to congratulate you on another World Tag Team Championship.
00:39:27Allow me to be the first to congratulate you on another World Tag Team Championship.
00:39:39You guys are catching up.
00:39:49Another amazing match by the Hardy Boys.
00:39:57And congratulations for being one of the reasons why tonight is an attendance record for TNA.
00:40:01And congratulations for being one of the reasons why tonight is an attendance record for TNA.
00:40:11One of the reasons why tonight is a single year.
00:40:29a record that we set in 2013.
00:40:40But I'm not here for that.
00:40:43I got a damn good reason why I'm here tonight.
00:40:51And I think the entire wrestling world knows why.
00:40:5925 years ago, the Hardys and the Dudleys made history in New York.
00:41:15The first ever tag team tables match at the Royal Rumble, and we stole the mother truckin' show.
00:41:29And since then, our paths have crossed here and there.
00:41:35You went on to greatness, we went on to greatness, and there's always that talk about who is
00:41:42the greatest tag team of all time.
00:41:57I think you, me, and everybody in here can agree.
00:42:04Obviously, the greatest tag team of all time are the Road Warriors.
00:42:14But the most successful, you got a lot of championships, we got a lot of championships.
00:42:20That's not what this is all about.
00:42:24What this is about is giving wrestling fans all over the world the last great tag team match of all time.
00:42:34This is about something special.
00:42:42This is about something that can never, ever happen again.
00:42:50So this is what I got for you.
00:42:54October.
00:42:58Bound for glory.
00:42:59Hardys, Team 3-D, one last match.
00:43:12And despite...
00:43:26Where's the people?
00:43:31Where's the people?
00:43:34Where's the people?
00:43:37Where's the people?
00:43:40Where's the people?
00:43:42That is a great point and a great question.
00:43:47Because at Bound for Glory, you're going to hear one last time.
00:44:04Give on!
00:44:06One, two, three.
00:44:12Get the table!
00:44:22The challenge has been laid down.
00:44:28Team 3D, the Hardys, Bound for Glory.
00:44:33One last match.
00:44:36In a year that's already made so much history for TNA,
00:44:43especially in the modern era.
00:44:48It might be a chance to put some history to bed, come Bound for Glory.
00:44:53Absolutely momentous challenge laid out by Bully Ray here tonight.
00:45:00This has been a phenomenal night in the history of TNA wrestling, but it's just gone to a completely different level.
00:45:07Slammiversary officially kicks off our path towards Bound for Glory.
00:45:14And we can tell you at this time, Bound for Glory 2025 will be on Sunday, October 12th.
00:45:21In Lowell, Massachusetts.
00:45:23The pre-sale begins one week from Wednesday on July 30th.
00:45:28And the general on sale begins on Friday, August 1st.
00:45:32It all goes down at the Songus Center in Lowell, Massachusetts.
00:45:35Head to TNAwrestling.com to get your tickets in the very near future.
00:45:40Could we see Hardys vs. Team 3D at TNA Wrestling's biggest event of the year, Bound for Glory?
00:45:48Ah, we're shipping on down toward Boston Way, ready to make even more history, more moments, and the best matches on the damn planet.
00:45:57Well, Slammiversary officially begins the path to Bound for Glory, but we are not done this evening on Long Island, New York.
00:46:05We are moments away from our main event as Trick Williams from NXT is set to defend his TNA World Championship
00:46:13against Joe Hendry and Mike Santana in a three-way matchup.
00:46:17Right now, we want to throw back to our Countdown to Slammiversary panel on the stage.
00:46:30Ladies and gentlemen, we are moments away from our gigantic main event.
00:46:39But first, I would like to draw attention to the fact that one of the members of the panel is missing.
00:46:46Gia Miller was attacked by Tessa Blanchard.
00:46:50It was disgusting. It was uncalled for.
00:46:53And I'm going to announce it right now that Tessa Blanchard is suspended indefinitely.
00:47:00Good.
00:47:01Son of a gun! I'm not playing around no more! That was wrong!
00:47:07But, of course, moving forward to our epic main event, a three-way where the TNA World Champion Tricky William will defend the title versus Joe Hendry and Mike Santana.
00:47:22Now I'm going to ask the panel for their predictions.
00:47:27Mr. Snake, I'm somewhat of a snake guy myself. May I have your prediction, please?
00:47:34Tonight belongs to Mike Santana.
00:47:37Mr. LaGreca?
00:47:42Mike Santana!
00:47:47Tommy the Dreamer!
00:47:50Wait a minute!
00:47:55We are joined by the self-proclaimed king of TNA, Frankie Kazarian.
00:48:13Tommy, with all due respect,
00:48:19Actually, I don't respect you at all, Tommy.
00:48:24And I don't give a damn about your prediction.
00:48:28I certainly don't care about a prediction from anybody from your stupid-ass Mark radio show.
00:48:34LaGreca, you suck.
00:48:40It is Slammiversary. We are celebrating TNA itself.
00:48:46We are celebrating new attendance records.
00:48:50And we are celebrating the king of TNA, Frankie Kazarian.
00:48:55And look, I don't care who you wheeled out here earlier.
00:49:05Nobody has done more for this company than me.
00:49:14I am the uncrowned TNA world champion.
00:49:17I should be in this main event tonight.
00:49:20And since I'm not, I'm going to walk down to the ring, sit my fine ass down right there and do some commentary.
00:49:29And if you don't like that, you have permission to hate me now.
00:49:34Okay, ladies and gentlemen, I have one more question for everybody here.
00:49:44Are you ready for the main event?
00:49:47Now let's watch the video screen and see exactly how we got to this moment.
00:49:56I lost.
00:50:09I lost to Trick Williams.
00:50:13I lost the TNA world championship to someone who doesn't even work here.
00:50:19And that is painful.
00:50:22You were here for my ascension.
00:50:25And now I need you for my redemption.
00:50:30The TNA world champion, Trick Williams.
00:50:41There may be no saving TNA from Trick Williams.
00:50:46You know who held this goal before?
00:50:48People like Kurt Angle.
00:50:49People like AJ Styles.
00:50:52But none of them can compare to Trick Williams.
00:50:57When you mention the world title, you mention my damn name.
00:51:03I'm going to be the one that's going to take the TNA world title from you.
00:51:09Mike, I respect your passion.
00:51:14And one day you will be the man here, but you are going to respect me.
00:51:19These people are still chanting, we believe.
00:51:23In New York, in front of my family, my friends, my city and my culture,
00:51:31that I've carried on my back since day one.
00:51:34I'm the guy who needs to bring back our most prestigious prize.
00:51:37Yes, the people believe in Mike Santana.
00:51:41But does the world believe in him or in Joe Hendry?
00:51:45This ain't about making people believe.
00:51:47This ain't about making promises to your daughter.
00:51:50It's about getting the job done.
00:51:51And that's why I'm the greatest TNA champion of all time.
00:51:56It's Trick and A, and it's always going to be Trick and A.
00:51:59Do Joe Hendry or Mike Santana have what it takes to bring back the TNA World Championship?
00:52:08Or will TNA Wrestling's nightmare continue at Slammiversary?
00:52:14As we get set for the main event, let's take a look at the tale of the tape.
00:52:24What a year it has been for Joe Hendry.
00:52:27He will go down as arguably the most important TNA World Champion in history.
00:52:31Meanwhile, Mike Santana, a four-time TNA World Tag Team Champion, has been on a roll for the last 16 months.
00:52:39But all eyes are on Trick Williams, the reigning TNA World Champion.
00:52:44And every member of the TNA Wrestling family wants to see that World Championship brought home tonight at Slammiversary.
00:52:55Say his name and he appears.
00:52:59I believe in Joe Hendry.
00:53:03I believe in Joe Hendry.
00:53:06Tonight is about redemption for Joe Hendry.
00:53:27The heights that he took the TNA World Championship to cannot be questioned.
00:53:32However, the low that he experienced at WWE Battleground is resting on his mind.
00:53:39Joe Hendry is out to reclaim the TNA World Championship.
00:53:44And joining us here on commentary for our main event.
00:53:47Because of course, Frank, you have to make this about you.
00:53:51This incredible night for TNA Wrestling.
00:53:53You've just got to make it all about you, don't you?
00:53:56You're damn right I make it about me.
00:53:57The biggest night in TNA history.
00:53:59And you didn't think I was going to be here.
00:54:02One of the founding fathers.
00:54:03One of the OGs.
00:54:04One of the architects.
00:54:05The guys that built this company.
00:54:06You're lucky I'm here.
00:54:08I'm not in a good mood.
00:54:13I'm the uncrowned TNA World Champion.
00:54:15That is why I'm here tonight, Tom.
00:54:17Joe Hendry is not alone in challenging.
00:54:28Yeah, yeah.
00:54:29Hey yo, we ready for the King of New York?
00:54:34Let's go.
00:54:36Why an apple don't fall, far from the wicked tree.
00:54:39Put depression at its misery.
00:54:41It lives in me, but I fight.
00:54:43Cause the light at the end of the tunnel will deliver peace.
00:54:46Be the epitome.
00:54:48Of left jab, right hook.
00:54:49Here indeed.
00:54:50I'm reminded that we all gotta kill the weak mind.
00:54:53It feels slighted.
00:54:54Get up.
00:54:55And do something.
00:54:56Full steps in a jab and jump.
00:54:57Back to raw.
00:54:58To the bone-blown passing competition.
00:55:00I just had to stop and listen to my gut.
00:55:02Woke up to no fucks given.
00:55:04Another day, another chance to be great.
00:55:07Knees never late to me, though.
00:55:09Your face optioned on, but don't take it there.
00:55:11Massive option.
00:55:16Boy, I'm nasty.
00:55:17What else can I say?
00:55:18Roll stronger cause I chose today.
00:55:20Santana, what's good?
00:55:24Let's go.
00:55:25Bring your best, can I bring the peace?
00:55:27Off the leash, fangs need flesh.
00:55:29This place falls on my chest.
00:55:30Hard rest when the war is over.
00:55:32Each day, I feel closer to the stars.
00:55:35How can I not keep going?
00:55:37We already came this far apart.
00:55:39My emotions don't want to close the butt.
00:55:41Pain did not keep across them.
00:55:42Fuel up.
00:55:43Use the love to heal.
00:55:44Last quarter vibes.
00:55:47I made peace with hell.
00:55:49When the war's closer than a mess.
00:55:51Being nothing but respect is lost.
00:55:53Hitting y'all with the catch of six.
00:55:56Ball wires.
00:55:57Hoping my heart's higher.
00:55:59The key be the born nasty breathing.
00:56:02Born nasty, what else can I say?
00:56:04Real stronger cause I chose today.
00:56:07Make some noise for the king of New York.
00:56:10And when I say sin, y'all say tanda.
00:56:15Sin.
00:56:16Sin.
00:56:17And when I say sin, y'all say tanda.
00:56:20Sin.
00:56:21Sin.
00:56:22Sin.
00:56:23Welcome home to King of New York.
00:56:25The proud of the Bronx.
00:56:27The proud of Puerto Rico.
00:56:29The proud of Puerto Rico.
00:56:31Santana.
00:56:32We home baby.
00:56:33Stand up.
00:56:35We home baby.
00:56:36Stand up.
00:56:37Feel sliding.
00:56:38Get up.
00:56:39Move stuff in the jabber jaw.
00:56:40To the bar blow past the competition.
00:56:42Listen to my gun.
00:56:43Welcome to no fun, Steven.
00:56:44Another day, another chance to be great.
00:56:45Miko.
00:56:46The fake's option no.
00:56:47But you take it there.
00:56:48Smash Jimmy off the goal, leaving nothing to prepare.
00:56:50Boy.
00:56:51Nancy.
00:56:52What else can I say?
00:56:53Girl stronger cause I chose to do.
00:56:54First of the bad.
00:56:55Then I take it there.
00:56:56Ego.
00:56:57And that's what like.
00:56:58Go.
00:56:59The first of my eyes is open.
00:57:00So that's good.
00:57:01A lot of us can beat me.
00:57:02Let's go.
00:57:03To the bar blow past the competition.
00:57:04This is my gun.
00:57:05Walk up to no fun.
00:57:06Can I say anything?
00:57:07Another day, another chance to be great.
00:57:08Me go.
00:57:09You're fresh option no.
00:57:10But you take it there.
00:57:11Smash Jimmy all.
00:57:12The goal.
00:57:13The goal.
00:57:14I'm so sure because I chose to death, not let it.
00:57:17Cloud thinking that it's going to stay.
00:57:19Nothing but my legacy away.
00:57:21Bring your best and I'll bring the beast.
00:57:23Off the leash, bangs, knees, flex.
00:57:25Jumping to stay, sores on the chest.
00:57:27Hard rest when the war is over each day.
00:57:30Feel closer to the stars.
00:57:32How can we not keep going?
00:57:34We already came this far.
00:57:36So what do something?
00:57:39Puerto Rico, the king of New York is home.
00:57:44Make some noise for Santana.
00:58:14They singing it.
00:58:18They singing it.
00:58:21Boom, boom, boom.
00:58:24Boom, boom, boom, boom.
00:58:28Boom, boom, boom.
00:58:30Boom, boom, boom.
00:58:34Boom, boom, boom.
01:01:23The following is a triple threat match for the TNA World Championship.
01:01:34Introducing first the challengers from Edinburgh, Scotland, weighing in at 252 pounds of pure
01:01:48motivation, we believe in Joe Hendry.
01:02:00Next, from the Bronx, New York, weighing in at 230 pounds, Mike Santana.
01:02:49Give me a lot.
01:02:50Take this one.
01:02:51Take this one.
01:02:53Take this one.
01:02:55And their opponent, from Colombia, South Carolina, weighing in at 240 pounds.
01:03:11He is the TNA world champion, Sweden Williams.
01:03:41We are set to cap off perhaps the most phenomenal night in the history of TNA wrestling with the TNA world championship.
01:03:59Joe Hendry is seeking his redemption.
01:04:02Mike Santana wants to bring our world title home in his home of New York.
01:04:08Meanwhile, the champion belongs to NXT and wants to see Trick and A live on.
01:04:16Who's gonna walk out of Slammiversary as the TNA world champion?
01:04:23On a night full of history and broken records, it all leads to this.
01:04:29And oh, off it goes.
01:04:33Guys, I don't know if I've ever felt a crowd more alive.
01:04:36And I've never seen a competitor like Mike Santana have more of a home field advantage this night.
01:04:41Hendry and Santana have had the team together as we've seen over the last few weeks.
01:04:45It's been contentious.
01:04:47They have worked together well at times, but I've said it for a number of weeks.
01:04:51It's every man for himself in this triple threat match.
01:04:55Trick Williams, he don't gotta be pinned or submitted to lose that title.
01:04:59They can go down to just these two if they want.
01:05:01Great point, Matt.
01:05:02You know what I would do?
01:05:03I would get myself counted out and I'd get myself disqualified to do whatever it takes to hold that title.
01:05:07If Joe Hendry would have done that, he would have never lost that title and an outsider would not now be the champion.
01:05:12Well, to your point, maybe he could have done that at WWE Battleground, but Joe Hendry's a better man than you.
01:05:17This is a triple threat match.
01:05:18Joe Hendry's a dumber man than me.
01:05:19There are no countouts, no disqualifications in this matchup.
01:05:22First man again, Ben Farrar submission in the ring will walk out as the TNA World Champion.
01:05:27Trick is smart right now.
01:05:29He's staying out.
01:05:30He's gonna take advantage of if and when there is a penitent.
01:05:33You watch.
01:05:34And Ray Wall, let's understand the gravity of the evening thus far.
01:05:37As it stands right now, both of TNA's World Championships belong to NXT wrestlers.
01:05:43JC Jane, earlier on tonight, made history.
01:05:45The first double champion ever between TNA and WWE simultaneously.
01:05:50TNA cannot afford to see Trick Williams leave with the TNA World Title.
01:05:55And that's exactly what Mike Santana and Joe Hendry have been fighting for for the past several months.
01:06:03And me.
01:06:05To be fair, Frank, I love you, man.
01:06:08You've been teaming with Trick Williams on occasions now.
01:06:11You know why?
01:06:12Because often, actually always, I'm the smartest man in the room.
01:06:16In this scenario, Trick Williams is the smartest man in the room.
01:06:19He's beat both these competitors.
01:06:21He is the TNA World Champion, and I respect that.
01:06:24He's cheated to do it both times, Frankie.
01:06:26Now, Santana, here's his arm drags here against Joe Hendry.
01:06:30May the best man win between Hendry and Santana.
01:06:35Oh, went for spin the block, and Joe Hendry able to evade.
01:06:39Spin of his own.
01:06:41Best man is sitting right here.
01:06:45Oh, no, there's Trick Williams into the fray.
01:06:49Clobbering Santana and Hendry.
01:06:51They weren't paying attention.
01:06:52You've got to have your head on a swivel in these matches.
01:06:55Trust me, I've been in hundreds of triple threat matches.
01:06:57They're very dangerous.
01:06:59I mean, there's no doubt about it.
01:07:00I mean, your opponent is literally named Trick Williams.
01:07:03You've got to watch out for someone like that.
01:07:05As much pride as they may have in fighting one another.
01:07:08Frankie, while you're sitting here, I do have to get your opinion and your thoughts on what we saw earlier on tonight.
01:07:13AJ Styles returning to TNA Wrestling for the first time in over 11 years.
01:07:20Tom, I have a lot of thoughts about that, and I'm just not going to share them with you.
01:07:26I'm certainly not going to share them with you.
01:07:28When I do feel like I want to share them, the whole world will not.
01:07:32Focus back on the matchup here.
01:07:35Oh, standing Uranagi there by Trick Williams trying to retain the title.
01:07:39Hendry able to kick out.
01:07:40By the way, don't try to get personal after all these months.
01:07:43Right now, Trick Williams laying it down in the ring.
01:07:50Got rid of Santana.
01:07:52Mike Santana out of the picture, and now it is down to the same scenario the TNA title was lost in.
01:07:58Trick Williams and Joe Hendry.
01:08:00Right.
01:08:01He's isolated.
01:08:02That's what you need to do in that.
01:08:03Trying to hold on to the championship.
01:08:05Hendry able to kick out.
01:08:09Oh, and Mike Santana got up on the apron for just a second.
01:08:12Live round right there.
01:08:13And Trick Williams doing the smart thing, whether you like it or not.
01:08:16Holding the high ground.
01:08:18Holding on to the ring.
01:08:19Getting it down to Frankie Kazarian's point to a one-on-one scenario.
01:08:22Making sure the third man is eliminated any time they try to come back in.
01:08:26You can't deny that strategy.
01:08:29Oh, double shot to the throat there by Trick Williams.
01:08:32Trick has to be careful.
01:08:33He could get screwed the same way I did in Los Angeles.
01:08:36I was not pinned, but I did not win the match.
01:08:39Trick has to be careful.
01:08:40Oh, hold on.
01:08:41Guillotine here by Trick Williams.
01:08:43That's a big man to have that body weight choking you.
01:08:46Look at Hendry.
01:08:48Hendry not going down.
01:08:49He's strong, man.
01:08:51I can't stand him, but he's strong.
01:08:53Look at this.
01:08:55Look at this.
01:08:55252 pounds of pure motivation.
01:08:58Joe Hendry pushes through and counters with a suplex.
01:09:04How much did that take out of Hendry just to hoist the mass?
01:09:08That is Trick Williams up there.
01:09:12Trick Williams back up to his feet.
01:09:14Same with Joe Hendry.
01:09:16Now New York's own Mike Santana.
01:09:19And a charming suplex to Lever.
01:09:21Very well done.
01:09:23And Santana choosing his moment now.
01:09:26It's Hendry who's been eliminated from the fray.
01:09:29Frankie, what do you think about the journey of Mike Santana?
01:09:32All the roads that he's traveled.
01:09:34Some more roads for you to get to this point in time.
01:09:37You know what?
01:09:38Personally, I can't stand the guy.
01:09:40But professionally, I have nothing but respect.
01:09:43I know where he's been, and I know where he wants to go.
01:09:46We've traveled those same roads.
01:09:48We're after the same goal.
01:09:49And he is a guy that I love having in my locker room.
01:09:54Santana.
01:09:55It will evade Williams.
01:09:57Uh-oh.
01:09:57Oh!
01:09:57Total boot right to the cheekbone.
01:09:59That'll wake you up.
01:10:01Mike Santana, the one man in this match, you could argue,
01:10:04fighting for someone other than himself.
01:10:06Fighting for his family, his daughter, for TNA.
01:10:09Oh!
01:10:10Leg Lariat there by Trick Williams.
01:10:15Mike Santana's young daughter, Ariana,
01:10:19here at ringside in the impact zone, cheering on her father.
01:10:24And now, ooh!
01:10:26Face first goes Santana.
01:10:28Here's the cover.
01:10:29Trying to hold on to the world title and a kickout.
01:10:31Hashtag TNA Slammiversary is trended number one all night long
01:10:36in Sports on X.
01:10:38Thank you to fans all over the world watching live on Pay-Per-View
01:10:42and TNA Plus.
01:10:44This, the 21st annual Slammiversary,
01:10:47our highest attended event in the history of TNA Wrestling in North America.
01:10:53Look at Joe.
01:10:53Honest Joe playing possum over there.
01:10:55Look at that.
01:10:56Look at that.
01:10:57No doubt about it.
01:10:57Joe Hendry laid out on the floor.
01:10:59Inconsequential, at least at this moment.
01:11:03Inside the ring, it's Trick Williams and Mike Santana.
01:11:06Remember, no countouts, no disqualifications.
01:11:08First man in the game, pinfall or submission, will be the champion.
01:11:12You know what?
01:11:12Trick gets it.
01:11:13He's not here to make friends.
01:11:14He's made that quite obvious.
01:11:16And I respect that.
01:11:18Trick Williams is thinking about a superplex there.
01:11:20Mike Santana trying to prevent it.
01:11:22Straight headbutt by Santana.
01:11:24Now Santana spawned him.
01:11:31Time!
01:11:32Oh!
01:11:33Big uppercut by Williams.
01:11:37Trick just a little too fast.
01:11:41Now wait a minute.
01:11:42This is where it gets dangerous.
01:11:44Hold on a second.
01:11:45There's Joe Hendry.
01:11:46He's got a hold of Trick Williams.
01:11:48Oh, and up Mike Santana!
01:11:50A powerbomb blockbuster combo from the challengers.
01:11:56Obviously, a move like that affects everybody.
01:11:59This is the point in the match where, from here on out, who can pull it out?
01:12:03Who can reach down?
01:12:06I could.
01:12:10This is going to go down as perhaps the greatest event in the history of TNA Wrestling.
01:12:15And Frankie, you had to make this main event all about you by coming on commentary.
01:12:20Of course I did.
01:12:21You understand what's at stake?
01:12:23I said it earlier.
01:12:24Our TNA Knockouts World Championship belongs to J.C. Jane from NXT.
01:12:28Now Trick Williams is defending his TNA World Championship.
01:12:32He's from NXT as well.
01:12:33TNA can't afford anything to go wrong tonight in this match.
01:12:36Yeah, and you know what, Tom?
01:12:37That eats me up.
01:12:38I predate anybody in this company.
01:12:41I've bled.
01:12:42I've broke myself in this company.
01:12:43That's why I'm here.
01:12:44You don't think that doesn't eat at me?
01:12:46Oh, wait a minute.
01:12:47Go for Spin the Block.
01:12:50Oh, right to the face.
01:12:54Oh, wait a minute.
01:12:55Oh, let's go for Spin the Block, but a trick kick instead.
01:13:00And Santana wisely rolling out there.
01:13:03Not giving the opportunity to get pinned, but look at this.
01:13:06Whoa, Hendry was thinking about a choke slam.
01:13:10Trick went for the leg lariat.
01:13:11Incredible countering.
01:13:12Oh, look at this.
01:13:13Hendry.
01:13:15Trick gets dumped.
01:13:16Is it time for the standing ovation?
01:13:19Hendry could have it here.
01:13:21Is this his redemption?
01:13:23Oh, you son of a bitch, Frankie.
01:13:26What are you doing?
01:13:29What the hell is wrong with you?
01:13:31I know what I'm saying, man.
01:13:31What the hell is wrong with you?
01:13:33We're trying to win back the world title.
01:13:35You've got to be careful.
01:13:36Frankie, what is wrong with you?
01:13:38Move like that.
01:13:39You're not going to kick.
01:13:40Can you not?
01:13:48Get the hell out of here, Frankie.
01:13:51Your ego's out of control.
01:13:52Well, I'm the first in line in the Frankie Kazarian fan club.
01:13:57This guy is incredible, but I got to agree with you, Tom.
01:14:01On this night, in this match, on this occasion, we cannot afford this kind of ego.
01:14:08Meanwhile, back inside the ring, the main event continues, and Mike Santana able to wipe out Trick Williams on the outside.
01:14:19Oh, look out.
01:14:20Wait a minute.
01:14:21Joe Hendry gets tricking Santana.
01:14:27Absolute chaos after Frankie Kazarian there could have just changed the course of TNA history in that moment.
01:14:34And now Joe Hendry tossing Mike Santana inside the ring.
01:14:44Also, oh, like something's wrong with Trick Williams.
01:14:52Back inside the ring, Mike Santana and Joe Hendry.
01:14:56Santana was going for a spin the block.
01:14:58Hold on a second.
01:14:59Roll a buck 50.
01:15:01Now, look at Santana.
01:15:03Outline to Chalk.
01:15:10Trick's down on the outside.
01:15:12A big opportunity for Santana.
01:15:15Could this be the moment?
01:15:17Cover.
01:15:17Shoulders down.
01:15:18Hendry kicks it too.
01:15:25We have medical staff and referees checking on Trick Williams on the outside.
01:15:33Back inside the ring, Joe Hendry and Mike Santana battling for the TNA world title.
01:15:47Pop-up powerbomb.
01:15:50Could it be a TNA star that brings the world title home?
01:15:56Hendry taking advantage of this moment in time.
01:16:00It ain't ballet, folks.
01:16:03We say that for a reason.
01:16:07And now Hendry going for the standing ovation on Santana.
01:16:12Down goes Santana.
01:16:14Cover.
01:16:15One, two, three.
01:16:16Santana kicked out of the standing ovation.
01:16:20How?
01:16:22How?
01:16:24Could that have been Hendry's moment?
01:16:28Joe Hendry just said, what do I have to do?
01:16:32For a second time, the standing ovation in that moment was not enough.
01:16:38But Santana wants more.
01:16:53Oh, now Santana with a forearm shiver.
01:17:03Joe Hendry responds.
01:17:06Two of TNA's best and brightest.
01:17:08Going at it.
01:17:09Spin the block.
01:17:11But Santana, not done.
01:17:14Spin the block.
01:17:16The STB one more time.
01:17:18Cover.
01:17:19Trick Williams throwing out Santana.
01:17:22Trick Williams is going to steal this one.
01:17:25Damn it.
01:17:29Damn it.
01:17:30Here's our winner and steal the TNA World Champion, Trick Williams.
01:17:43TNA President, Carlos Silva, handing the TNA World Championship back to Trick Williams.
01:18:05It appears Trick feigned a mean dream.
01:18:08Don't want to be tricking me.
01:18:10For a second.
01:18:11I felt bad.
01:18:13Any athlete going down is horrible.
01:18:18Damn it.
01:18:20Take a look back here at this main event matchup.
01:18:24We thought this was down to Mike Santana and Joe Hendry.
01:18:28It looked like the storybook conclusion was about to be finished here.
01:18:33Mike Santana trying to bring home the TNA World Championship in his home of New York.
01:18:39And instead, it was Trick Williams who took it away and held on to the TNA World Championship.
01:18:47Both of TNA's world titles are in the hands of NXT wrestlers.
01:19:01When will this nightmare end?
01:19:04We are officially on the path to bound for glory.
01:19:11Say it loud.
01:19:12I'm champion.
01:19:13I'm proud.
01:19:14Say it loud.
01:19:15I'm champion.
