00:00Well, that's great news for Matt Hardy.
00:02But coming up next, theirs is a match that has huge implications for
00:06BFG and Hardcore War.
00:09Moose and Mustafa Ali compete with the winner,
00:12getting the advantage for their team at Bound for Glory.
00:16A true leader identifies a threat and eliminates that threat.
00:31I proudly am the leader of Order 4 and I will protect Order 4.
00:39Are we witnessing the system shutdown?
00:44Under the chair!
00:48Order 4 is at the top of the food chain in TNA Wrestling.
00:54Moose, you in the system, there is no leader.
00:57So what are you?
00:59This all started about who has the greatest faction in TNA.
01:03But at this point, I don't give a damn.
01:05You made this personal.
01:07You messed with family.
01:09All I see when I look at the system is sheep.
01:14Fear not, for I will be your shepherd.
01:18Victory Rose, I'm gonna beat the living hell out of you
01:22and you're gonna find out two things.
01:24One, why I'm the face of the franchise.
01:27And two, why you always trust the damn system!
01:57The following contest is scheduled for one call.
02:11Introducing first, accompanied by the system, Moose!
02:19Moose!
02:21Moose has the support of the system.
02:24However, once this match is underway, the system and Order 4 will be banned from ringside.
02:31Moose!
02:32Moose!
02:33Moose!
02:34And we know that two weeks from Sunday, live on Pay Per View at TNA Plus in Lowell, Massachusetts,
02:40it will be hardcore war between Order 4 and the system at Bound for Glory.
02:47In that matchup, it's 5-on-5.
02:49It's an agenda.
02:51There are no count-outs or disqualifications.
02:53The match will start off with one competitor from each team after a timed interval.
02:57The team with the advantage will then have a participant enter the match, thus having a 2-1 advantage,
03:03until the next participant joins the match.
03:06This will continue until all competitors have entered the bout.
03:10Only then can the match end be a pinfall or submission in the ring.
03:15That is what Ali and Moose are fighting over.
03:18That critical advantage in Hardcore War.
03:40And his opponent, accompanied by Order 4, Mustafa Ali!
04:03And it's that advantage that Mustafa Ali feels that only he can secure,
04:09as he is a true and pure leader in the realist sense of the word.
04:15You heard it from the man's mouth himself.
04:18Moose has said this system is not about who's a leader and who's a follower,
04:24but that could be their disadvantage.
04:26Order 4 is all falling in line behind this man,
04:30and it has led them to a lot of success, especially recently.
04:35That could continue here tonight with a huge victory from Ali.
04:39We saw the impromptu matchup that kicked off the broadcast here for Victory Road,
04:44the six-man tag team match where Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, the returning JDC,
04:49defeated the great hands in Special Agent Zero.
04:53Agent Zero's first ever TNA matchup.
04:56Ultimately, the system was able to bounce Agent Zero to the outside and score the victory.
05:02That's got to be in the back of the mind of Mustafa Ali.
05:05Some frustration there, but got to focus on the task at hand.
05:08For the first time ever, it's Mustafa Ali one-on-one with Moose here at Victory Road.
05:14But that's exactly what this matchup is all about.
05:17That impromptu match you talked about at the beginning of the show, I mean,
05:21that was a blip, if you will.
05:23That was an unexpected consequence, all that kind of thing.
05:27The point of this matchup is to get something very calculated, very intentional,
05:33that advantage that could serve everything at BFG.
05:37Oh, wait a minute.
05:39Oh, and a pump kick by Moose.
05:42Ali, very confident, maybe overly so, in the early going.
05:49Moose just annihilated Ali.
05:55I haven't seen the strength, the power advantage in the corner of the face of the franchise.
06:01But Ali's gonna use his speed, his technique, and his mind to overcome Moose.
06:07Moose just brushed that one off.
06:16And Ali may have to change strategy.
06:19Whoa!
06:24The chop for chop not faring well for the leader of Order 4.
06:29Ali's given up about 70 pounds to the two-time TNA World Champion,
06:34the former heavyweight champion.
06:36Yeah, but Moose has given up about 300 IQ points.
06:39Oh, stop it.
06:40So where does Eddie throw out to you?
06:41Ali is a genius in the ring.
06:43Oh, Moose goes all the way up for that drop kick.
06:46And Ali may be a genius in the ring, but it is hard sometimes to compete
06:51with the pure, unadulterated athleticism of Moose.
06:55I'll say this, Moose is hard-headed.
06:57But would you like to get head-butted by Moose?
07:00Look, I was a hard-headed kid myself.
07:02I haven't head-butted any walls in a long time.
07:05I don't want to try it.
07:07And now what is going through the hard-headed mind of Moose?
07:12Moose ripping apart the steel steps, exploring the space here with Ali.
07:19Count of three from our referee page with Ali.
07:22Moose thinking powerbomb here.
07:24Whoa.
07:25Ali able to escape.
07:26Super kick by Ali.
07:28Great counter there.
07:29Count of four by the referee.
07:31Hold on a second.
07:32DDT on the outside.
07:34The only thing Moose head-butted there was the damn ground, courtesy of Mustafa Ali.
07:42Count of six by the referee.
07:46Ali's personal escorts into this matchup.
07:51Not members of Order 4 as Order 4 is banned from ringside, all within the rules.
07:56And look at this!
07:57Beautifully done.
07:58On the moonsault and a power out by Moose, sending Ali out of the ring.
08:04Again, the strength of Moose not to be underestimated.
08:10Boom!
08:11Classic Ali, the rolling neck breaker.
08:14Look to the inside leg.
08:15Here's the cover.
08:16And a kick out there by Moose.
08:20And Moose continuing to show resilience and strength, but Ali has slowed him down enough.
08:27To take advantage and now really put this match at his pace.
08:34Ray Wall, it's been over two years since we last saw a hardcore war here at TNA Wrestling.
08:40Rebellion 2023.
08:42What can we expect?
08:45I want to say something like cheesy, like expect the unexpected.
08:49But no, we know exactly what to expect.
08:51The rules are out the window.
08:53The only rule is, as you explained, the order of the participants entering the matchup.
08:58Other than that, it is pure, unadulterated bedlock.
09:02That advantage for multiple intervals in the early stages of the matchup can prove critical down the stretch.
09:12It will always be, until it is all even, it will always be a one-man advantage to whoever wins this match and their team.
09:24All weapons are legal in hardcore war or disqualifications of any kind.
09:29It's absolute madness.
09:31Oh, look out.
09:32What's going for?
09:33Go!
09:34And Ali able to counter.
09:35Incredible counter from the leader of Order 4.
09:38And now, oh my god!
09:39Ali sending Moose into the barricade.
09:42Taking out that table at ringside, nearly taking out the rail itself.
09:51And now, Ali's going up top.
09:53Is he thinking about the 450?
09:55Could he end it right here against Moose?
09:57You know he was, but great counter there.
10:00Oh, the uranage!
10:03The senton from the face of the franchise!
10:08Moose turning this one around!
10:15Moose, oh, runs into an E there by Ali.
10:18Moose is thinking Spear, no doubt about that.
10:23Now, once again, Ali finding himself in a war of knife-edge chops.
10:30Moose!
10:31Moose!
10:32Moose!
10:33Moose!
10:34Moose!
10:35Moose!
10:36Moose!
10:37Moose!
10:38Moose!
10:39Moose!
10:40Well, again, went for that pump kick.
10:42Another super kick here by Ali.
10:44Oh, what a clothesline!
10:47Turning Ali inside out.
10:51Go for a powerbomb here.
10:53Ali trying to hold on, however.
10:55Oh, my god!
10:56Did he get enough of that?
10:58Oh, and a kick out by Moose!
11:01Tried to counter in almost a Code Red-like situation there.
11:05I thought it looked like a Canadian Destroyer.
11:07Nonetheless, nearly put it away.
11:10But Moose staying in this.
11:13That advantage at Bound for Glory hanging in the balance.
11:18And now, Ali back to the top turnbuckle.
11:28Oh, another chop!
11:30Moose cutting him off at the pass.
11:33And now Moose headed to the higher-end district, too.
11:43Ali fighting him off.
11:45Taron, it looks like the face in the eyes of Moose.
11:49Oh, bell clap there.
11:50Trying to throw off the equilibrium of Moose.
11:53Hold on a second.
11:55Caught him this time.
11:56Go to hell, Ali!
11:58Cover!
12:01Ali kicks it, too!
12:03What a counter from Moose.
12:05I thought that could have been it.
12:07But Ali digs down deep.
12:20We got to take another look.
12:22We have to take another look back at this.
12:24Caught on the top rope on the springboard, and it was go to hell.
12:28And Ali almost went there, but dug down deep
12:32and kicked back out.
12:34Oh, now Moose is going for the spear.
12:36Shoulder first into the middle turnbuckle.
12:38Ali trying to turn it around.
12:40Ali the heart of a true leader.
12:43Get it!
12:45Moose trying to lead by example for the system.
12:48Series of counters between Ali and Moose, and finally, Ali scores with that suplex.
12:59That is the power of true leadership.
13:03That is the power that Order 4 flexes in TNA.
13:08A critical fight in the battle between Order 4 and the system here at Victory Road.
13:18Ali now trying to get in the head of Moose.
13:31This is a moment where Ali has got to stay focused.
13:34I think he's very focused.
13:41He's spending too much time worried about the fans, trying to get Moose's head.
13:46He's got to push the advantage here.
13:50Oh!
13:50Wait a minute, Ali.
13:51Oh!
13:52And with a spear by Moose from out of nowhere!
13:54Ali nearly exploding.
13:56Is that it?
13:57Cover!
13:58Cover!
13:59Oh, but Ali!
14:00Wait a minute!
14:01Ali's foot was on the rope!
14:02Ali's foot was on the rope!
14:05Had it not been, Moose would have won this off the spear!
14:09Referee called it just in the nick of time.
14:13Unfortunate positioning.
14:19Take a look here, Ali trying to evade Moose.
14:22Caught him with the spear!
14:25But Ali bounced just over by the ropes.
14:27And with this cover, you'll see the foot right into the ropes.
14:32And the referee made the right decision here, was in perfect positioning.
14:36Great call by Paige Brinzovalli.
14:38The match continues.
14:41You have to imagine, though, that is not an issue that's going to come up twice.
14:45Moose will make sure of it.
14:47Look out.
14:48On the outside.
14:49Could it happen again?
14:50Oh, no!
14:51Moose!
14:52Spined first!
14:54Into the steel steps!
14:56Moose!
14:56Good God!
14:57Holy shit!
14:59Holy shit!
15:00Holy shit!
15:00Holy shit!
15:01Holy shit!
15:02Holy shit!
15:03Nearly 300 pounds of Moose's carcass crashing onto that steel.
15:09Now Ali getting Moose back inside the ring, realizes the opportunity at hand.
15:17Moose could be downed out.
15:22450!
15:26Oh, and, oh, wait a minute!
15:28Moose sat up!
15:29Moose sat up into the cover!
15:31You've got to be damn kidding me!
15:35450, and Moose stood up throwing Ali nearly out of the ring!
15:40One thing I've ever seen that done to Ali's 450!
15:46Or anybody's 450!
15:47Anybody's anything!
15:48Moose!
15:49Moose keeps coming!
15:57Went for the big right hand, Ali.
15:59Oh, he gets headbutted out of the air by Moose!
16:05Ali might be out cold.
16:07And now, go for the spear!
16:13Hold on a second, Ali slid on an eight there.
16:16And his shoulder's down, and I can't count!
16:18Great counter work!
16:20Here we go again!
16:21Ali went for the backslide.
16:22Now Moose, could it be time for a powerbomb?
16:25Center of the ring!
16:26Oh, wait a minute!
16:27Ali got the better of him!
16:28Back and forth, back and forth!
16:30Wait, wait!
16:31Rolling all the way through!
16:33And now, Moose with a powerbomb!
16:37A towering powerbomb!
16:39Is that enough?
16:40Oh, and a kick out by Ali!
16:43Just in the nick of time.
16:47What more is it gonna take?
16:51And wait a second!
16:52What the hell?
16:54Those escorts of Ali!
16:56Ali's dancers from his entrance!
16:59Are now surrounding the ring!
17:02Order 4 and the system are banned from ringside,
17:05but the dancers were not a part of that!
17:07The referee trying to get the attention there of everybody,
17:11and wait a second!
17:12Oh, and a low blow!
17:19And what the hell was that?
17:21And a dropkick by Ali!
17:24I think it's clear what's happened!
17:26One of the dancers had the attention of the referee
17:29who didn't see the low blow!
17:32450 by Ali!
17:33And just like that, Order 4 has the advantage at BFG!
17:41Here is your winner, Moose the Pug Ali!
17:51Order 4 will have the advantage against the system
17:55in Hardcore War at Bound for Glory!
17:59Justice League suspected Tasha Steeles
18:06getting involved behind the referee's back!
18:10That is how you execute true leadership!
18:18Take another look back at how this went down!
18:21As we now know, Tasha Steeles seamlessly switching place
18:27with one of Ali's dancers during the matchup!
18:30Which then led to this!
18:32The 450 perfectly executed
18:36and perfectly getting Order 4 the advantage
18:40at Bound for Glory!
18:42Order 4 cheats the system at Victory Road
18:46to gain the advantage against the system
18:49and Foul for Glory!
18:59A plan perfectly executed!
19:03The system better be ready at BFG!
19:07There's plenty more where that came from
19:09in the camp of Order 4!
19:12Well, coming up next, Joe Henry
19:13finally gets to go one-on-one with Eric Young!
19:16But will darkness crush belief?
19:19The problem was with them with a problem!
19:20Let us know a few more!
19:21So, we can do that!
19:22So, I'll go back to the office!
19:28We can do that again!
19:32Let us know!
19:34Let us know!
19:36Let's see what happens!
19:39We can do this now!
19:41We have a problem!
