New Title Debuting, Road to Rebellion Heats Up — TNA iMPACT Results — April 3, 2025
The show kicks off with TNA World Champion coming out to the ring for commentary.
-Elijah vs “The King Of TNA” Frankie Kazarian
On the outside of the ring, Frankie Kazarian gets in Hendry’s face. Joe gets up, takes his headset off, and shoves Kazarian. Kaz stumbles back and then Joe picks him up. Kaz comes down over Hendry’s head and shoves him into Elijah.
Kazarian then attacked Hendry and laid him out. Elijah got into the ring and Kazarian rolled him up for the victory.
Winner: Frankie Kazarian
Post-match, Joe Hendry came into the ring and attacked Frankie from behind and had to be pulled off by security and Elijah.
We go backstage after the commercial break to Joe Hendry being evaluated for a shoulder injury, noting that he could barely move it. The medical professional wanted to send him out to the hospital.
Eddie Edwards comes out to the ring and says he wants to know who is in and who is out from
The System, after telling them all last week to get on board with him or not be part of the group anymore.
JDC, Moose, Alisha, and Brian Myers all come out. Eddie asks JDC if he’s in or out. Dango says he’s in. Eddie asks Myers the same thing – Myers says he’s in too. Eddie asks his wife Alisha, who looks pissed off, she she’s in.
Eddie asks Moose if he’s in or out – before Moose can answer, he’s interrupted by Cody Deaner. Deaner says he wants to see somebody from The System get fired after hearing about it all week.
Eddie says they’re all on the same page, but Deaner thinks otherwise.
Cody tells Moose it would be awesome to see a resignation from The System, and that he should leave it up to the people. The crowd cheers very loudly when Deaner asks if he should leave The System.
Moose chimes in and tells Deaner that the people are right – and then proceeds to boot Cody Deaner in the face. All of The System beat him down. They leave him laid out in the ring.
Gia Miller is backstage with Xia Brookside, Masha Slamovich, and Lei Ying Lee about their match later. Xia said Tessa had to go find friends in NXT because she has no friends here in TNA. Masha says they’re sending Jazmyn & Jacy packing back to NXT.
We get a promotional package for the IMMERSED Special with Joe Hendry and Nic Nemeth.
Santino Marella approaches Moose backstage to let him know that he’s got two new competitors for the Ultimate X match at Rebellion – Leon Slater and “Alwayz Ready” Matt Cardona.
NXT/TNA liaison Arianna Grace makes her way out for commentary.
-Spitfire (Dani Luna & Jody Threat) vs NXT Meta Girls (Jakara Jackson & Lash Legend)
Jakara Jackson and Lash hit Jody with the NKO for the victory.
Winners: Jakara Jackson & Lash Legend
Backstage, Mike Santana thanks Santino for helping get his friend Derek a job on the TNA crew. He says his friend is 3 months sober and really appreciated it.
Matt & Jeff Hardy are out to talk for the first time since Matt was attacked by Nic Nemeth, and the announcement of their defending the Tag Team Titles at Rebellion.
Matt says when they left him laid out at Sacrifice, it hurt him physically but it didn’t hurt him emotionally. The look on his children’s faces when he got home hurt him more than anything.
Matt has them zoom in on a scar on his nose. He says they must DELETE Nic and Ryan.
Jeff said he knows Ryan and Nic are comedians outside of wrestling, so the joke about them being the best tag team has to be their biggest hit. He’s going to make them regret not finishing the job when they left Matt laid out.
They’re interrupted by The Great Hands &’Tasha Steelz. Skyler says they’re not that great anymore, and that they’re inspired by Ali beating Santana, so they’re moving to bigger and better things too like the TNA Tag Team titles. Matt says they’ll prove they can still go tonight against the Great Hands. Santino comes out and says the match can happen next.
-Matt & Jeff Hardy vs The Great Hands (w/Tasha Steelz)
Matt & Jeff hit Skyler with a Plot Twist, and then Jeff immediately follows it up with a Swanton Bomb off the top rope and then covers for the victory.
Winners: Matt & Jeff Hardy
We get an injury update on Joe Hendry. Gia Miller is standing by with Dr. Asa, who said Joe had a Grade 3 severe strain on his rotator cuff. He said this is Joe Hendry we’re talking about, so he wouldn’t rule out Rebellion just yet.
Ryan Nemeth watching Hardy’s win backstage. Slater walks up and they exchange words. Slater pushes and security separates.
-SDL & Mance Warner make their way out to the ring with the TNA Digital Media Title. SDL said they’re out to celebrate the greatest Digital Media reign of all time. She claims they run TNA and will be running the whole world. Mance said there’s nobody tougher or prettier than them.
Santino Marella interrupts. He said they can’t inherit a title, and asks what’s wrong with their brains. He said he’s taking away the Digital Media Title, but he’s holding a tournament at Unbreakable to crown a new TNA International Champion, and as a tribute to the 2005 Unbreakable PPV 3 way match between Aj Styles, Samoa Joe, and Christopher Daniels, every match at the PPV will be a three way match. Santino demands they give him the title back. Sami Callihan comes out and attacks Mance with a baseball bat and then throws him off the stage and onto a table.
Mustafa Ali has The Great Hands kidnap Derek so he can speak to him.
Ali tells Derek that he’s worthless and an addict, so he’ll go back to his old ways soon.
George Iceman is backstage with Heather By Elegance; he says that Ash is on vacation, but he found someone who can be Elegant – new TNA Knockout Maggie Lee.
Santino is backstage and reveals the first match for the International Title – Eddie Edwards vs Ace Austin vs Steve Maclin
A video package airs for El Hijo Del Vikingo, which reveals that he’ll be in the Ultimate X match at Rebellion.
