11/14 TNA iMPACT Results – Mike Santana makes his way down to the ring to kick off this week’s show. Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt welcome us to the program as Santana settles inside the squared circle. His opponent, KC Navarro, comes out next accompanied by AJ Francis.
Mike Santana defeated KC Navarro
The bell sounds and the opening contest for this week’s show gets underway. Santana jumps into an early offensive lead. Navarro gets in a couple of shots in the corner, but when he attempts a follow-up move, Santana blocks it and takes back over.
Navarro lands a dropkick to the back of Santana while he was in the corner. Navarro decided to hop out of the ring and gloat about this along with Francis. Santana, meanwhile, hits the ropes to build up a full head of steam and then launches through the ropes on the other side, taking out Navarro on the floor.
Back in the ring, Santana hits a seated Navarro with a chop that elicits gasps from the fans in the Impact Zone, and hysteric laughter from Hannifan, who took great pleasure in this on commentary. Moments later, Navarro hits a big dive to Santana on the floor.
Upon returning to the ring, Santana cuts off Navarro in the corner and blasts him with a stiff open-handed slap in the mouth. Regardless, Navarro brushes it off and begins to put together his first prolonged sequence of offense since the opening bell.
Navarro hits a big 305 dropkick through the ropes to Santana. He follows that up with a top-rope high spot for a close two-count. Navarro goes for a middle rope splash, but is caught by Santana. Santana hits a modified Styles Clash and then a sit-out powerbomb for a close two-count.
Seconds later, Santana connects with his Spin The Block finisher. After the STB, he quickly follows up with the cover and gets the pinfall victory in a fun opening match to set the tone for the evening.
Gia Miller Interviews Nic & Ryan Nemeth
Backstage, Gia Miller is standing by with Ryan Nemeth and the reigning TNA World Champion Nic Nemeth for a brief interview segment. She brings up Ryan’s bout with Joe Hendry tonight, and Nic’s against Brian Myers.
Nic says he’s going to do what he does best tonight, steal the show. Ryan tells Nic he’s going to have Nic’s back if The System try anything. Ryan then talks about his own business at-hand, noting the video Hendry shared has been ruining his life.
The Nemeth brothers wish each other luck and head off in opposite directions as the backstage segment comes to a close, and the show heads into a commercial break.
Hammerstone, Jake Something & Trent Seven Attack The Hardys & Ace Austin
When the show returns from the break, footage is shown of the chilling conclusion to last week’s show, which saw Trent Seven viciously attack his former friend and Speedball Mountain partner, “Speedball” Mike Bailey, immediately after Bailey lost the TNA X-Division Championship to Moose.
After the footage wraps up, The Hardys and Ace Austin are shown backstage talking to Seven about his actions, making it clear that they do not approve. As the talk continues, Hammerstone and Jake Something enter the picture and along with Seven, attack all three.
Santino Marella hits the scene with security and demands the heel trio leave. He calls for doctors to come check on the attacked trio as the brief backstage segment comes to an end.
The Rascalz (Trey Miguel & Zachary Wentz) defeated Alan Angels & Jake Crist
Back inside the Impact Zone, the team of Alan Angels and Jake Crist make their way to the ring, as do their opponents, The Rascalz duo of Trey Miguel and Zachary Wentz. The bell sounds and Wentz and Crist kick things off for their respective teams.
Wentz takes the early offensive lead and tags in Miguel. The two hit some double-team action and then do a quick tribute to WWE Tag-Team Champions The Motor City Machine Guns, and the commentators talk about The Rascalz Rebound Season following their return to The Treehouse last week.
After Angels tags in and takes over, he hits Miguel with a low blow that allows him to shift the offensive momentum into his team’s favor. He taunts the crowd and then muscles Miguel up for a fisherman’s suplex for a two-count.
Fans chant “Angels sucks! Angels sucks!” Moments later, The Rascalz pick up the win. Following the bout, a quick backstage segment is shown with Spitfire duo Jody Threat and Dani Luna, and then the show heads into another commercial break.
Josh Alexander, Judas Icarus & Travis Williams defeated Steve Maclin, Eric Young & Jonathan Gresham
When the show returns, the team of Josh Alexander and The Northern Armory of Judas Icarus and Travis Williams make their way to the ring for scheduled six-man tag-team action. Their opponents, Steve Maclin, Jonathan Gresham and Eric Young make their respective ring walks as well.
The bell sounds to get things started, and very quickly we see Maclin is eager to get his hands on “The Walking Weapon,” but just as clear to see is that Alexander is going to avoid sharing the ring with him at all costs.
After some good back-and-forth action, which featured a mid-match commercial break, the six-man tag-team bout comes to an end. Maclin gets too focused on finally getting the opportunity to beat down Alexander.
Young is accidentally bounced off the apron by Maclin, who turns around into a C4 Spike for the pin. Alexander and The Northern Armory pick up the win and quickly head to the back to a chorus of boos from the crowd. Meanwhile, inside the ring we see Young and Maclin aren’t happy with each other.
When the show returns from the break, Maclin is shown backstage, and he’s still fired up from what just went down. He comes across Santino Marella and tells him that things between he and Alexander are far from over. He tells him to do something about it, or he will.
He storms off and sees Young, who tells him he needs to start trusting him. Gresham shows up and makes it clear that as long as they have his back, he’s got theirs. Young reiterates his point to Maclin that he needs to start trusting him. “This is on you, not me.” Maclin storms off again.
Joe Hendry defeated Ryan Nemeth
In a brief backstage segment, Frankie Kazarian gloats about having the TNA Call Your Shot trophy and beating Rhino in his hometown on the night he was inducted into the TNA Hall Of Fame. Rhino walks up and threatens to beat his ass. Kazarian yells to anyone that can hear that Rhino just used profanity.
Inside the Impact Zone, “The Hollywood Hunk” Ryan Nemeth makes his way out and heads to the ring for scheduled one-on-one action. His opponent, the wildly popular Joe Hendry, heads out next and does his full entrance routine, complete with the crowd wave and dramatic soap opera head turn-finish.
Hendry then gets on the microphone for a trademark pre-match live promo. He brings up “The Ryan Nemeth Story” video that he premiered last week. “He’s Nic Nemeth’s brother … the end.” Yeah, that one.
He brings up leaving some stuff out. He had editors scour the internet and collect all of the achievements, which they have compiled in a longform video, which he calls the “Director’s Cut.” The same video from last week plays. “He’s Nic Nemeth’s brother … the end.”
Hendry says it sounds like fans want to see it one more time. He reacts to a loud “One more time! One more time!” chant, and is then ambushed and attacked from behind by Nemeth.
This starts the match off hot, but a few minutes later, Hendry takes over and finishes things off with the Standing Ovation for the easy win. Once the match wraps up, the show heads into another commercial break.
Rosemary defeated Jada Stone
When the show returns, the upcoming TNA Turning Point 2024 special event as part of WrestleCade on November 29 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina is shown and pushed by Hannifan and Rehwoldt.
Back inside the Impact Zone, the lights go out and when they come back on, Rosemary makes her way to the ring for the next match of the evening against Jada Stone.
The bell sounds, Rosemary dominates for about three or four minutes, and then hits her finisher to pick up an easy showcase victory. She does her post-match “kiss goodbye” ritual over her fallen opponent, and then the show heads into another commercial break.
Alisha Edwards, Masha Slamovich Set For No DQ Knockouts Title Showdown
When the show returns, Hannifan and Rehwoldt introduce a digital exclusive segment that showed The System celebrating backstage after last week’s show. They now have special rings that they all wear, which signifies that they run things.
After the package wraps up, we hear the unbelievably annoying, “Do you wanna know something?” catchphrase by Alisha Edwards over-and-over-and-over again, as she comes out for a quick time-killer promo.
She says a whole lot of nothing, essentially pointing out that The System have rings now, gloating that Eddie Edwards is going to beat Nic Nemeth for the TNA World Championship at TNA Turning Point 2024, and that she doesn’t like Masha Slamovich.
As she starts talking trash about Slamovich, she is cut off by the familiar sounds of the theme song for the reigning TNA Knockouts Champion. Slamovich says if Edwards really thinks her win was a fluke, how about she face her next week in a No DQ match for the TNA Knockouts Championship.
Before Edwards says anything, out comes Tasha Steelz. The two glare at Slamovich and try to intimidate her with the numbers advantage, the catchy-ass entrance tune for Jordynne Grace hits and out comes “The Juggernaut.”
Grace insists she knows who’s going to win the Slamovich-Edwards title tilt next week, and when Slamovich does, Grace says she’ll be ready for her immediate title rematch to become a four-time champion.
Nic Nemeth defeated Brian Myers
It’s main event time!
But first, the camera shot switches to the backstage area, where Ryan Nemeth is shown laid out. Nic Nemeth walks by in his ring gear ready to walk to the ring for the main event. He stops and asks Santino Marella to make sure someone helps him.
Nemeth continues walking but is stopped by Frankie Kazarian. The self-proclaimed “King of TNA” apologizes for what happened to Nic’s “jobber brother” and then wishes him good luck in his match. Nemeth keeps walking and makes his way out to the ring.
The System’s Brian Myers heads to the ring next, accompanied by Alisha Edwards and Eddie Edwards. They settle at ringside but before the match can get started, the theme for Joe Hendry hits and the crowd roars inside the Impact Zone.
Out comes the director of the smash hits, “The Ryan Nemeth Story” and “The Ryan Nemeth Story: Director’s Cut” to the ringside area with a giant ear-to-ear smile on his face. Hendry joins Hannifan and Rehwoldt on special guest commentary for the final match of the evening.
After Hendry is welcomed by the Impact play-by-play man and color-commentator, the show heads into a quick pre-match commercial break. When the show returns, we see the match in progress. Hendry mentions on commentary that he will be part of the Thanksgiving Turkey Bowl match at TNA Turning Point 2024.
Nemeth controls the offense for a minute or so, but then Myers begins to shift the offensive momentum in his favor. After Eddie Edwards gets involved at ringside, the referee makes the decision to eject him from ringside.
Regardless, Myers still gets an assist from Alisha Edwards, who is still at ringside. As Nemeth is down and out on the floor at ringside, the show heads into the final commercial break of the evening as the match continues.
When the show returns, once again Alisha Edwards is shown getting physically involved at ringside behind the referee’s back. This helps Myers maintain control of the action. Myers brings Nemeth back into the ring, but Nemeth starts to fire up for a comeback.
Myers cuts it short and gets Nemeth down throat-first over the bottom rope. He stands on the back of his neck to make matters worse. Myers hits a sidewalk slam for a two-count. Nemeth finally does start to string together some offense, but again Alisha gets involved in match-shifting fashion.
This time, Hendry stands up from his seat at the commentary desk and says he’s seen enough. He hoists Alisha up and carries her to the back to a big pop. Literally seconds later, Nemeth connects with a big super kick and his Danger Zone finisher for the win.
As soon as the match is over, Eddie Edwards, who was ejected from ringside during the match, runs back out to attack Nemeth. Myers joins in on the post-match beatdown. Hendry runs back out to make the save with a kendo stick.
As he’s cleaning house, he almost accidentally blasts Nemeth once again. He stops short, however, and gestures that he was clearly not trying to hit him. Fans chant “Hug it out! Hug it out!” as the two stare at each other.
Steve Maclin: “To Be Continued …”
The TNA iMPACT logo flashes on the screen again to end the show, but then footage is shown of Steve Maclin leaving the building. Maclin gets in a car and plays some sad music and drives off as the camera stays on a tight shot of his face.
“To be continued …” flashes on the screen and the show then officially comes to an end. That’s how this week’s show ends.
