00:00Could you believe this?
00:01Can you believe this, Victoria?
00:02This is what Santino thinks a wrestling card is?
00:05Look, a dog collar match where Eric Young is chained to Steve Macklin?
00:09I mean, the higher-ups aren't gonna like that.
00:11It's ridiculous.
00:12You know what, forget about it.
00:16Let's just focus on your match, and I'm gonna be out there with my eyes on it, all right?
00:21Okay.
00:22Go do your thing.
00:23No, no, go do your thing.
00:24Let's go do your thing, okay?
00:26Santino can't get away with anything with Robert Stone around.
00:34Following a contest is scheduled for what fall?
00:45It is the first, from the Undead Realm, Rosemary!
00:53Victoria Crawford will make her TNA in-ring debut later on tonight on Impact, but right
01:01now, a legend of the Knockouts division, Rosemary is set for action.
01:06I want to take you back to what happened two weeks ago on the countdown to Rebellion, which
01:12you can relive anytime on demand on TNA+.
01:15Plus, it was a six-knockouts tag team matchup.
01:19Rosemary teamed up with Zia Brookside and Laying Lee against NXT's Fatal Influence.
01:24Rosemary, in that match, as we've seen her do a number of times in the past, tried to get
01:28Zia Brookside to cheat.
01:30Zia Brookside refused, and ultimately, the win went to Fatal Influence, but it appeared that
01:35that did not sit well with Rosemary.
01:39The demon assassin trying to find something different within Zia Brookside, as she always
01:45often does.
01:46She's been conquering over Zia for quite a long time, and we are now joined by Zia Brookside
01:53to watch this matchup.
01:54Zia, why didn't you go along with what Rosemary wanted you to do at Rebellion?
01:59I had a choice, and I didn't do it, but I didn't do it because I have integrity.
02:04I agree with that entirely.
02:05We'll see how this matchup goes with a friend of yours, Laying Lee.
02:11Zia, I have to ask, how was that for you and Laying, teaming with Rosemary at Rebellion?
02:34That had to be awkward.
02:35It was a little bit awkward, don't get me wrong, but she helped me.
02:41She helped me win the match with the myth.
02:43What do you call what Rosemary did?
02:44No, Rosemary helped me.
02:45A number of weeks ago here on Impact, yes, helped you win a matchup.
02:49Yeah.
02:50So, it's difficult, but she has a good side, you know?
02:56Rosemary has a good side?
02:57Okay, maybe I'm wrong.
02:58But she tried to help me.
02:59I just try and see the best in people.
03:01And she tries to see the best in you, maybe.
03:03Maybe she sees a different side of you that even you can't see.
03:06She is trying to bring out the dark side in me.
03:09That's what she's doing.
03:11Zia, while you're here, I do have to ask you about this developing situation coming up at Under Siege.
03:16Two weeks from tomorrow, Friday, May 23rd, live on TNA Plus in the greater Toronto area, Brampton, Ontario.
03:22We'll see Masha Slamovich defend her TNA Knockouts World Championship against Victoria Crawford,
03:29who's making her TNA in-ring debut later on tonight and has been named the Deputy Director of Authority.
03:35What was your reaction when Robert Stone announced that match?
03:39Oh, my God.
03:40It's so hard because it's so good to see her here, but why is he here announcing that?
03:46Because he knows the right people, apparently.
03:48I guess, but Victoria Crawford hasn't earned that title shot here in TNA.
03:52She hasn't even had a match in this company yet.
03:54And Rosemary right off the gate, refusing.
03:57Oh, cover, cover here on Rosemary and a kick out.
04:00Refusing to shake the hand there of Laying Lee.
04:03Again, Rosemary is not about integrity.
04:07Zia, while you're out here, I gotta ask.
04:09I mean, look, integrity, as they don't pay the bills, integrity,
04:13you don't get integrity points to get a Knockouts World title match.
04:16Isn't that something you'd want?
04:17It is something I want, but I have to stay true to myself.
04:21I have to.
04:22At what cost?
04:25At what cost though?
04:26Don't you think I know that it's cost me some wins?
04:29Rosemary is trying to get me to snap.
04:32And while it's difficult staying true to myself, it's what I have to do,
04:36and I know I'm going to have to fight twice as hard to get there.
04:40Now Rosemary in control of Laying Lee at this point in the matchup.
04:45Come on.
04:46Some more action that's still on tap this evening as I mentioned.
04:49Victoria Crawford will make her in-ring debut in TNA Wrestling with Under Siege looming.
04:56Also this evening, Sway Miguel of the Rascals goes one-on-one with Mustafa Ali,
05:01who looked apoplectic and could be more dangerous than ever following Rebellion.
05:05Our cover here from Rosemary to put her away.
05:07And a kick out by Lee.
05:08Also still to come tonight, we'll hear from Matt and Jeff Hardy right here in the impact zone,
05:13and also in our main event.
05:15It's Macklin versus Young, a dog-collar match for the TNA International title.
05:22Ziya, what was your conversation like with Laying earlier on tonight as Lee was getting ready for this match against Rosemary?
05:29Listen, Laying is a warrior.
05:31Look, she is going to turn this around.
05:34She is going to beat Rosemary, and we are going to walk out here victorious together.
05:39Oh, wait a minute.
05:40Wait a minute.
05:41Oh, Rosemary taking a bite out of Laying Lee.
05:45I said that too fast.
05:47No, come on.
05:48See, these are the kind of things that Rosemary's willing to do to get the win.
05:52She's a former Knockouts World Champion in her own right.
05:55And now the upside down by Rosemary.
05:59Who's in the bulk of the five count.
06:03Maybe trying to show once again someone like Ziya right here at ringside what it takes
06:08to get things done here in the Knockouts Division.
06:11And she did that right there on purpose.
06:13I know she did that right there on purpose.
06:15Right so I could see her.
06:17She just needs to focus on what she's doing.
06:20I agree with you, Ziya.
06:21Rosemary's trying to send you a message.
06:23Come on, Laying.
06:25Laying Lee, who is a lethal punishing striker.
06:31Oh, straight headbutt right between the eyes.
06:36On a knee strike.
06:37Nicely done by Lee.
06:38That's it.
06:39Just stay on her.
06:40Stay on her.
06:41Again, those kicks coming into play for Laying Lee.
06:44Let's go.
06:47Seemingly turned things around here building momentum.
06:53And now Laying Lee all over Rosemary.
06:56That's for you.
06:57Two, three, four, three.
07:01There we go.
07:02That's what I'm talking about.
07:03That's that warrior spirit in her.
07:05She is going to turn this around right now.
07:08Cover by Lee off the exploder.
07:10Shoulders down by Rosemary and a kick out.
07:13So, I have to ask, Ziya.
07:15Do you believe that you can ultimately win and achieve your goals here in TNA Wrestling
07:19by doing things the right way?
07:21The way that Rosemary has been trying to get you to go against?
07:24100%.
07:25You know, I've stayed true to who I am in it.
07:27Oh!
07:28And how's that worked out for you so far?
07:32It got me this far, okay?
07:34It's going to keep me going.
07:36Well, what's keeping Rosemary going right now is everything she's done.
07:40And that was nearly splitting Laying Lee in half.
07:42Oh, no, no, no, no.
07:43I don't think so.
07:44Wait.
07:45Rosemary's got those brass knuckles.
07:49And Ziya Brookside not going to let that happen.
07:53No!
07:54What?
07:55No!
07:56What?
07:57You are not doing this thing.
07:58You made your own choices.
07:59You made your own choices.
08:00You made your own choices.
08:01You made your own choices.
08:02You made your own choices.
08:03You made your own choices.
08:04You made your own choices.
08:05And Ziya disarming Rosemary.
08:07Thunderstruck!
08:08Is that enough?
08:09Two!
08:10Three!
08:11Laying Lee beats Rosemary.
08:12Here's your winner for week three!
08:17I completely agree with Ziya Brookside.
08:27She did the right thing.
08:28She interfered in the match!
08:30She disarmed Rosemary.
08:32I think one of the things I heard Rosemary yelling out there was, Ziya, you have to make
08:37your own decisions for you, not based on some inconsequential code that you think is right.
08:45The Ziya Brookside understand what she's just stirred up with Rosemary.
08:51Rosemary is a good match.
08:52She's a good match.
08:53She's a good match.
08:54She's a good match.
08:55She's a good match.
08:56She's a good match.
08:57She's a good match.
08:58She's a good match.
08:59She's a good match.
09:00She's a good match.
09:01She's a good match.
09:02She's a good match.
09:03She's a good match.
09:04She's a good match.
09:05She's a good match.
09:06She's a good match.
09:07She's a good match.
09:08She's a good match.
09:09She's a good match.
09:10She's a good match.
09:11She's a good match.
09:12She's a good match.
09:13She's a good match.

09:17She's a good match.
