00:00:00Well, the action continues right here on TNA Plus.
00:00:04The TNA World Tag Team Champions, the Hardys,
00:00:07ready to team up with Cedric Alexander
00:00:09against Order 4 here live at Turning Point.
00:00:30The following is a six-man tag team match scheduled for one fall.
00:00:49Introducing first, accompanied to the ring by Tasha Steeles
00:00:54and Special Agent Zero, the team of the great hands
00:00:59and Mustafa Ali, Order 4!
00:01:07Now this matchup basically exploded into existence literally 24 hours ago.
00:01:14It was Jason Hodge going one-on-one
00:01:16into a standard scheduled match with Cedric Alexander.
00:01:21Order 4 had a brief confrontation with the Hardys before that matchup.
00:01:25And after laying out Cedric Alexander at the end of it all,
00:01:29the Hardys crashed the party, upsetting Mustafa Ali in the process,
00:01:34who laid down the challenge for this six-man tag team matchup.
00:01:40And I hope the Hardys and Alexander are ready for the payback.
00:01:44First of all, it's Mustafa Ali who ruffled the feathers of the Hardys in the first place.
00:01:49And their opponent, first from Charlotte, North Carolina, weighing in at 220 pounds,
00:02:16Cedric Alexander!
00:02:19Alexander who went one-on-one with Jason Hodge last night
00:02:23and scored the victory, however, as all the viewers swarmed him after the fact.
00:02:27And his tag team partners, from the Hardy compound in Cameron, North Carolina,
00:02:34they are the TNA World Tag Team Champions!
00:02:42Matt, Jeff, the Hardy!
00:02:49Oh my God! Super fan!
00:02:51There ain't no party like a Hardy party!
00:02:55That is for sure!
00:02:57Don't worry!
00:02:58Don't worry!
00:02:59Don't worry!
00:03:00Don't worry!
00:03:01Don't worry!
00:03:02Don't worry!
00:03:03Don't worry!
00:03:04Don't worry!
00:03:05Don't worry!
00:03:06Don't worry!
00:03:07Don't worry!
00:03:08Don't worry!
00:03:09Don't worry!
00:03:10Don't worry!
00:03:11Don't worry!
00:03:12Don't worry!
00:03:13I'll party like a Hardy Party!
00:03:14That is for sure!
00:03:15Electrifying venues everywhere they go!
00:03:17They are the TNA World Tag Team Champions!
00:03:20They're also the 4th Rope Tag Team Champions!
00:03:23Shout out to our partners 4th Rope!
00:03:27The Hardys are coming off of the biggest Bout for Glory event of all time where they defeated Team 3D in one final table.
00:03:39And effectively, the Hardys retired Team 3D.
00:03:44The ultimate burden and the ultimate honor fulfilled by the Hardys there.
00:03:51What a moment it was, but as it always does, cruelly sometimes, history and time rolls on.
00:03:59And right now, a new conflict stands across the ring from the Hardys and Cedric Alexander.
00:04:05You talk about the honor bestowed upon the Hardys that night at Bout for Glory.
00:04:10Team 3D, Bully Ray, and D-Von gave their boots up in the ring to the Hardys.
00:04:17You talk about it that night, the ultimate sign of respect.
00:04:19You often see a wrestler leave their boots sitting in the ring as a sign that they have finished their task.
00:04:27But to hand the boots to your opponent is a whole other level.
00:04:31The Hardys and the Duffys, that one will live on forever.
00:04:36All of us here in TNA Wrestling, the entire world of professional wrestling, sincerely thank Team 3D for their contributions and all the moments they gave us for many decades.
00:04:50But tonight, someone might get deleted.
00:04:55The Hardys and their North Carolina brother Cedric Alexander up against Order 4 here at Turning Point.
00:05:03We will see this one, see if it explodes into chaos like it did last night.
00:05:14Hodge and Alexander trying to pick up where they left off last night.
00:05:18Closing moments of that matchup.
00:05:19Mustafa Ali had joined us on commentary.
00:05:21Looked like Jason Hodge was going for that classic Ali rolling neckbreaker.
00:05:25And he got caught with a lumbar check.
00:05:28And Alexander got the 1-2-3.
00:05:33Mimicking, copying, taking what you will from Mustafa Ali.
00:05:38I would say he's a smart bet in almost any situation.
00:05:41That backfired on Jason Hodge, however.
00:05:44Huge PK.
00:05:45Here's the cover and a kickout by Hodge.
00:05:48Cedric Alexander, one of the greatest opportunities of his career, came about in this very building right here at Full Sail University in Orlando, Florida.
00:05:56But what an opportunity he has tonight.
00:05:58Full circle.
00:05:59He's teaming with the living legends, the Hardys.
00:06:02And just like that, the broken one, the GOAT himself, Matt Hardy looking to delete the arm.
00:06:14A Jason Hodge here.
00:06:18Matt Hardy going after Hodge.
00:06:24Hodge able to create a little bit of separation.
00:06:27In comes John Schuyler.
00:06:28I was going to say, let's not forget, is during that confrontation between Order 4 and the Hardys,
00:06:34the Great Hands made it very clear their intentions to take those TNA World Tag Team titles from the legends.
00:06:42I'll point out that John Schuyler's from South Carolina.
00:06:46Did you need to point that out?
00:06:47There's no love between North and South Carolina.
00:06:50Is there Carolina heat?
00:06:51You don't know this?
00:06:52I did not know that.
00:06:54I know New York, New Jersey.
00:06:56I know, you know, Chicago versus the suburbs.
00:06:59I didn't know that.
00:07:01Chicago versus the suburbs.
00:07:02Oh, it's big.
00:07:03I won't go into it.
00:07:04Fighting amongst yourselves.
00:07:06Speaking of Chicago, in comes Mustafa Ali.
00:07:09The pride of Chicago along with me.
00:07:12And the leader of Order 4.
00:07:14Oh, now Ali is set flying to the outside.
00:07:19Look out now.
00:07:20Hodge joining him on the floor.
00:07:22Excuse me, Skyler Hodge.
00:07:24Got a cut in the gut there.
00:07:28A tag made to Cedric Alexander.
00:07:30Jeff Hardy also going to insert himself into this equation.
00:07:33There was no legal tag to Jeff Hardy.
00:07:35What is he doing now?
00:07:36Take it up with Frank Gastineau, our referee.
00:07:39This is uncouth.
00:07:41Oh, wait a minute.
00:07:43Alexander launching Hodge into the rest of Order 4.
00:07:49And the Hardys and Alexander standing tall.
00:07:52And the frustration of Mustafa Ali is starting to boil over.
00:08:01Take a look back here.
00:08:02The Hardys helping out Alexander.
00:08:04What a feat of strength.
00:08:06Meanwhile, back to live action.
00:08:08The mastermind behind Order 4.
00:08:10Tasha Steeles calling for a huddle.
00:08:12Trying to reset things for Ali, Skyler, and Hodge.
00:08:16Press secretary trying to keep the message clear.
00:08:19Ali trying to keep things in control.
00:08:23Well, is Ali truly in control as he dives back into the ring
00:08:27with perhaps his greatest rival in the history of professional wrestling?
00:08:31Ali suffered a massive loss at Bound for Glory.
00:08:35Order 4 loss to the system in Hardcore War.
00:08:38But you look ahead.
00:08:40It's not what happened yesterday.
00:08:42It's not what happened a month ago.
00:08:44You got to look ahead.
00:08:45And you got to look at Cedric Alexander,
00:08:46who's about to turn everything around here.
00:08:49From the ranks of the Cruiserweights all the way to the heights of WrestleMania.
00:08:56We saw these two square off at Slammiversary this past summer.
00:08:59Ali defeated Alexander one-on-one for the first time in their storied rivalry.
00:09:04That's right.
00:09:05And I feel like that trend may just continue.
00:09:06Oh, no.
00:09:08Pop-up powerbomb.
00:09:10Ali able to kick out.
00:09:12Good Lord.
00:09:13I was afraid I spoke too soon there.
00:09:16But Ali staying in the fight.
00:09:18I was afraid Ali was going to go through the damn ceiling.
00:09:20Oh, jawbreaker there by Ali.
00:09:25Trying to cut Cedric Alexander off from the Hardys here.
00:09:31Oh!
00:09:31No, no, no, no, no.
00:09:32A misfire by Ali.
00:09:35German suplex from Alexander sending Ali into his team's corner.
00:09:40Order 4 has had a hard time getting off the blocks.
00:09:43Oh, wait a minute.
00:09:44Is it time for a lumbar check?
00:09:46Oh, and Ali went to the eye.
00:09:48The referee didn't see it because of Tasha Steele's.
00:09:52Beautiful work there from the press secretary.
00:09:57The Hardys furious with what just happened.
00:10:01And Special Agent Zero wiped out Cedric Alexander.
00:10:10Now Order 4.
00:10:12What do you stop?
00:10:14What do you stop?
00:10:16What do you stop?
00:10:17Standing United with Agent Zero standing behind.
00:10:23And Ali taking a shot at Alexander.
00:10:28Ali knows because he's legal against Alexander.
00:10:32But the Hardys strike him.
00:10:33It could lead to a disqualification on Hardy.
00:10:36Went after Ali.
00:10:37The referee just warned Matt Hardy.
00:10:39Referee's discretion allowing the match to continue.
00:10:43Tensions very, very high in this one.
00:10:46Ali all over Alexander.
00:10:49We saw the level of frustration in Ali last night.
00:10:53Again, after the Hardys crashed the attack of Order 4.
00:10:57It was mere moments later, Ali came out crashing the return concert of Elijah.
00:11:04And ultimately using that guitar, we heard it in the BioFlex injury report, could potentially have re-injured, at least re-aggravated that triceps injury of Elijah.
00:11:14Oh, look out.
00:11:15Oh, and a driver there by Alexander as Skyler was talking trash.
00:11:22Order 4 is trying to re-establish a foothold here in TNA Wrestling.
00:11:27After suffering a loss in hardcore war, it bound for glory.
00:11:31It is.
00:11:31Oh!
00:11:33Ali got a piece of Chuck Hardy.
00:11:35Look out!
00:11:38Oh!
00:11:39Big back body drop and a tag been made.
00:11:42Jason Hodge trying to catch Alexander.
00:11:44Great timing from Hodge there holding on to Alexander.
00:11:47Keeping control, at least for the moment.
00:11:50For only a moment.
00:11:51The insecurity.
00:11:52Oh!
00:11:53But Matt Hardy pulled away by John Skyler.
00:11:56Order 4 prevents the tag.
00:11:58Beautifully done by Skyler there.
00:12:00Boom!
00:12:02Beautiful kick there by Hodge.
00:12:04Here's the cover.
00:12:04Tucks the arm.
00:12:06Alexander kicks it too.
00:12:08But just like that, with a little bit of teamwork and ingenuity, Order 4 regains control.
00:12:17And now, can Hodge really pick up where he left off last night?
00:12:22Going for the rolling neckbreaker.
00:12:24Oh!
00:12:24It nearly cost him again!
00:12:27Last night it led to a loss tonight.
00:12:29It's drilled with a Deck Valley driver.
00:12:32Right at where it's due.
00:12:33Incredible counter there from Cedric Alexander.
00:12:37Tag made.
00:12:38It's Matt Hardy to meet John Skyler.
00:12:41Three, three, three, three.
00:12:44And that broken one looking to break Skyler here.
00:12:50Matt Hardy quickening the pace here against Skyler in this six-man tag team matchup.
00:12:55Whoa!
00:12:57Back and forth now.
00:12:58Boom!
00:12:59Ooh!
00:13:00Twist of fate!
00:13:04And last night it was Ali who suffered that twist of fate.
00:13:09Will it be Skyler tonight?
00:13:12Go for another twist of fate.
00:13:14Oh, there goes Hodge!
00:13:16Two for one special.
00:13:17No!
00:13:18Went for the twist of fate.
00:13:20Handful of the jeans and a kick out.
00:13:22Nice.
00:13:25Oh, it's trying to set up a side effect.
00:13:27Nasty landing there for John Skyler.
00:13:29Pressing the shoulders down.
00:13:31Matt Hardy thinking better of it.
00:13:33The match continues.
00:13:35Either way, Hardy retains control here.
00:13:40Oh, now Hodge has the attention of the referee and Ali attacked!
00:13:44I think Ali had something in his hand.
00:13:46Cover!
00:13:46Oh, and it's broken up and a kick out as well by Hardy.
00:13:52Difficult situation here the last few moments.
00:13:56And just like that, Order 4 has maybe cut Matt Hardy off now.
00:14:02A tag made.
00:14:04Ali is legal.
00:14:05I didn't quite see what Ali used as a weapon there, but the referee did not.
00:14:10The match continues.
00:14:11Now, it's Ali and Matt Hardy.
00:14:20Ali out of the corner.
00:14:21Kicked right to the midsection.
00:14:23Looked out.
00:14:24Oh, Ali tried to block the twist of fate, but suffered a DDT.
00:14:29Great wherewithal from Ali, but it still wasn't enough.
00:14:37Tag made.
00:14:38And finally, the charismatic enigma, Jeff Hardy, is into the frame.
00:14:44Take it out.
00:14:44Hodge left, right, and center.
00:14:49Drop kick right to the back of the neck.
00:14:51One half of the team.
00:14:52A World Tag Team Champions going to work.
00:14:59Oh!
00:15:00Into the neck breaker.
00:15:02Off the splash.
00:15:04Is it enough?
00:15:05Hodge able to kick out at two.
00:15:07And, of course, tag.
00:15:14Jeff Hardy totally able to turn the momentum of this matchup around.
00:15:18The Hardy's in complete control here.
00:15:23Oh, could it be time for a little poetry in motion?
00:15:26Let's go.
00:15:26And now all three members of this team together.
00:15:35All the way for the twist of fate.
00:15:37And a Lombard check.
00:15:39Shades of last night.
00:15:41Twice in 24 hours.
00:15:43Oh, in order for breaks up the pinfall.
00:15:46Ali pushing Matt Hardy right into the cover.
00:15:52Everything starting to break down.
00:15:58Now, Hardy, after Ali, once again went for the twist of fate.
00:16:02Matt Hardy sent to the outside.
00:16:04Ali threw the ropes and a dive.
00:16:06Takes out Hardy.
00:16:07And look out, look out.
00:16:11Oh, Cedric Alexander focusing in on his old foe.
00:16:16Flatliner.
00:16:17Hodge goes inside out that time.
00:16:20Boom!
00:16:20Slingshot spear by Skyler.
00:16:24And now Jeff Hardy.
00:16:25Oh, he wanted a twist of fate in the neck breaker.
00:16:28Oh, now Tasha steals into the ring.
00:16:41Not going to allow Jeff Hardy to hit this swanton.
00:16:45Hardy wanted a swanton bomb.
00:16:48Order four preventing it.
00:16:51Oh, my God.
00:16:52Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:16:53Oh, no.
00:16:53Wait, man.
00:16:55That's Tasha.
00:16:55Oh, a double twist of fate.
00:16:59How dare you, sir?
00:17:03Nail man, Hardy.
00:17:04Into the cover.
00:17:06Oh, and the referee pulled out of the ring by Agent Zero.
00:17:11Mustafa Ali's personal weapon of mass destruction pays dividends again.
00:17:20Not the first time the Hardys have crossed Special Agent Zero.
00:17:24Three, three, three, four.
00:17:28Are they prepared to deal with this monster?
00:17:32Business looks like it's about to pick up.
00:17:35Oh, wait a second.
00:17:46What if Alexander helping to arm the Hardys?
00:17:50Blashing out with steel chairs against Agent Zero.
00:17:53I mean, he's not a legal participant in this match.
00:17:57I guess it all goes.
00:17:58And the referee's down.
00:17:59It's absolute chaos.
00:18:01Zero sent to the outside, but somehow still standing.
00:18:04Trying to cut down this golem that is Special Agent Zero.
00:18:13The Hardys driving Special Agent Zero to the back.
00:18:17Alexander left alone here to fight in this matchup.
00:18:20Alexander trying to send away the great hands.
00:18:23The referee's been thrown back inside.
00:18:25Oh, and a low blow by Ali.
00:18:27And a roll up.
00:18:29Cover.
00:18:31Ali pins Alexander.
00:18:35Here are your winners.
00:18:39Order 4.
00:18:41Well, Ali wanted to get Order 4 back on the right foot.
00:18:49Chaos or not, Order 4 now has a victory over Cedric Alexander and the tag team champions, the Hardys.
00:19:00Order 4 had never beaten the Hardys in any combination prior to tonight.
00:19:07A major bounce back for Order 4 in the wake-about for glory tonight, live at Turning Point.
00:19:29At Full Sail University, learning doesn't stop in the classroom.
00:19:33It steps into the ring.
00:19:34TNA Impact is live!
00:19:38Using Full Sail's state-of-the-art production facilities, students are getting the opportunity to bring their learning to TNA Wrestling's live events

00:19:57and a front-row seat to the fast-paced world of live entertainment.
00:20:01TNA Wrestling is proud to be partnered with Full Sail University as they teach students the skills that power the entertainment industry.
00:20:13Right now, we want to give you a glimpse into what this beautiful establishment is capable of here at Full Sail Live.
00:20:19This was earlier on today, a view from our production truck.
00:20:22Ray, Walt, you and I have the opportunity to work in this building with TNA and WWE.
00:20:27It is truly state-of-the-art.
00:20:29One of the best places to learn production and everything with event management, media, and beyond.
00:20:36We thank Full Sail University for their partnership with us here at TNA.
00:20:41We are sold out here at Full Sail University in Orlando, Florida.
00:20:45And coming up next, the system is preparing to bid farewell to JDC at Genesis.
00:20:51But the Rascals proposed this eight-man tag team matchup for the first time in eight years.
00:20:58All four members of the Rascals will be in action together.
00:21:02They'll face the system next.
00:21:06The following is an eight-man tag team that's scheduled for one call.
00:21:29Introducing first, accompanied to the ring by Alicia Edwards.
00:21:33The team of Eddie Edwards, Brian Smyre, JDC, and Moose, the system!
00:21:45Well, last night, JDC announced to the world and to his own brethren within the system
00:21:52that at Genesis in Dallas in January, he will hang up the boots for good
00:21:58after nearly 27 years in the wrestling business.
00:22:03But not only that, Tom, he said,
00:22:04I got a few more in me to Santino, including getting this match made here tonight.
00:22:10Let's go!
00:22:13Let's go!
00:22:16Let's go!
00:22:17Let's go!
00:22:32And their opponents, the team of Zachary Wentz, Myron Reed, Trey Miguel, and Desmond Alexander
00:22:59Welcome home, Desmond Xavier
00:23:07All four rascals, you see the emotion on Trey Miguel's face
00:23:14The first time ever that all four of them
00:23:18It's a heartwarming, homecoming moment for the rascals
00:23:27Five years ago, Miguel, Wentz, and Xavier
00:23:34Did a tearful goodbye to TNA Wrestling
00:23:38As all the members went on their own separate way
00:23:41Myron Reed, one of the newcomers to the rascals over the recent years
00:23:47But these four have known each other
00:23:49It was eight years ago that they came together as a group on the independent scene
00:23:55They have been dreaming about this moment ever since
00:23:59We heard from Desmond Xavier earlier today
00:24:06Said this is eight years in the making
00:24:09All the way back, quite frankly, in the treehouse in Ohio
00:24:12That they dreamed of having moments like this
00:24:15They are more than just tag team partners
00:24:18They truly are a chosen family
00:24:21And for the first time ever
00:24:23All together in one ring
00:24:27The rascals threw down this challenge last night live on Impact
00:24:34And you can see in the eyes of Trey Miguel especially
00:24:38This means so much
00:24:41To the rascals to be reunited
00:24:43But to step across the ring
00:24:44From four of the best TNA Wrestling has to offer
00:24:48To say goodbye to JDC on his road to retirement
00:24:52This is what TNA is all about
00:24:54Some of the best of the best of the best
00:24:59About to go at it
00:25:02And it'll be JDC to kick things off against Myron Reed
00:25:10And in many ways this is the epitome of a clash of generations
00:25:16One of the things that makes the system
00:25:19The system the reason they came all came together
00:25:21Was their share just immense history in this business
00:25:26They are all veterans to a man and woman
00:25:29In this business
00:25:31The rascals
00:25:33They are as well
00:25:34But they are in their prime there
00:25:35And they're up and coming
00:25:36They're in the process of capturing everything they've wanted
00:25:40This is a clash I am dying to see
00:25:43JDC
00:25:45What a career he has had in professional wrestling
00:25:48He was trained under the late great Hall of Famer
00:25:51Killer Kowalski
00:25:53He debuted in 1999
00:25:55He competed here at TNA Wrestling
00:25:57Oh
00:25:58In 2003, 2004
00:26:01Once upon a time
00:26:02Signed by WWE
00:26:04Went to Deep South Wrestling
00:26:05In 2006
00:26:07This man defeated Chris Jericho
00:26:09At Wrestlemania
00:26:10Let's be honest
00:26:11With the accomplishments
00:26:12And the ability
00:26:13Of Johnny
00:26:14Daniel Curtis
00:26:16I mean hot damn boy
00:26:17This guy don't
00:26:18He ain't working like he's about to retire
00:26:20Flying head scissors
00:26:23With your candy ass
00:26:25What are you doing over here JDC
00:26:26Hot damn
00:26:27Myron Reed
00:26:29Trying to keep up
00:26:30With the veteran
00:26:31He's got 20 more years
00:26:32Left in him if he wants
00:26:34Takes out the leg
00:26:36Here's the cover
00:26:37Oh
00:26:38And Myron Reed
00:26:39Got him
00:26:39There's that swagger
00:26:44That the rascals
00:26:45Are so well known for
00:26:46And now JDC
00:26:49Now he's saving on a tag
00:26:50In comes Brian Myers
00:26:52Up against Trey Miguel
00:26:53Man
00:26:56Who once hosted out
00:26:57The learning tree
00:26:58About to take Trey Miguel
00:26:59To school
00:27:00From the learning tree
00:27:01To the tree house
00:27:02That's right
00:27:03That's right
00:27:04And Trey Miguel
00:27:06You can see how emotional
00:27:07He was moments ago
00:27:08How does one compartmentalize
00:27:10Going into a match like this
00:27:11When you're feeling that way
00:27:12Well look
00:27:13I've known Trey Miguel
00:27:14Now for a number of years
00:27:15I've seen how
00:27:16Cover
00:27:16Cover
00:27:17And a kick out
00:27:18How much certain moments
00:27:19In this business
00:27:20And how much he cares
00:27:21About his family
00:27:22About his friends
00:27:24But I know Trey
00:27:25That once the bell rings
00:27:26That's when it's time
00:27:27For business
00:27:28That's what everybody
00:27:29Quite frankly
00:27:29Everybody in this match
00:27:31Does so well
00:27:32And what makes them
00:27:33Ooh
00:27:34So damn good
00:27:35Tag made
00:27:36In comes Eddie Edwards
00:27:37We had the chance
00:27:38To speak with him
00:27:38JDC and Eddie
00:27:40Are on today
00:27:41The reason why
00:27:42JDC ultimately
00:27:44Joined the system
00:27:45You had to get
00:27:45Moose's blessing
00:27:46But at the same time
00:27:47It goes way back
00:27:49With Eddie Edwards
00:27:49JDC and Eddie
00:27:51Have known each other
00:27:51For almost 25 years
00:27:53Cutting their teeth
00:27:54On the independent scene
00:27:55In Massachusetts
00:27:56And New England
00:27:56As a whole
00:27:57All the way back
00:27:59To April of 2004
00:28:01They even teamed
00:28:01Together for the first time
00:28:03Shout out
00:28:03With Team Tap Out 2
00:28:05Yes
00:28:06Ladies and gentlemen

00:28:12Belly to belly
00:28:13There by

00:28:18Daijin to win
00:28:18The GHC

00:28:24In WWE
00:28:25Look out
00:28:27The Rascals
00:28:28Wentz taking control
00:28:29But Eddie Edwards
00:28:31Kicking out right away
00:28:32I can guarantee you
00:28:33Wentz and company
00:28:34Could care less
00:28:35About that history
00:28:36It's all about
00:28:36The competition
00:28:37Tonight
00:28:37A turning point
00:28:38About the competition
00:28:39It's about their own
00:28:40History coming to a head
00:28:41Here
00:28:41We talked about
00:28:42That 8 years building
00:28:44To a moment like this
00:28:45To a moment
00:28:46Like Desmond Xavier
00:28:48Returning
00:28:49To TNA
00:28:50And a tag made
00:29:00Moose
00:29:01And Desmond Xavier
00:29:04Two men with roots
00:29:13Deep here
00:29:13In TNA
00:29:14I don't believe
00:29:17Gonna be a size
00:29:18Difference here
00:29:19Kick right to the back
00:29:23Of the neck
00:29:24By Desmond Xavier
00:29:25He's a multi-time champion
00:29:28Bringing his time
00:29:29In NXT
00:29:30And now I'm getting lit up
00:29:34By a three-time world champion
00:29:37Here in TNA
00:29:38In Moose
00:29:39Charges
00:29:45Turn to burst into the top
00:29:46Turnbuckle
00:29:47Into the corner
00:29:47Goes Xavier
00:29:48And this is where
00:29:49The Rascals

00:30:06Assemble there
00:30:07Oh what a chop by Moose
00:30:14That's all someone like Moose needs
00:30:17That's the power game
00:30:19Size and strength
00:30:21Certainly going
00:30:22To the system's favor
00:30:23In this matchup
00:30:24Overall
00:30:25Now Bryan Myers
00:30:27Slowing down the pace
00:30:29Smart decision
00:30:31By the veteran
00:30:32They call him
00:30:33The most professional wrestler
00:30:35For a reason
00:30:36Multi-time tag team champion
00:30:39Between TNA and WWE
00:30:41Bryan Myers
00:30:42One of the most respected
00:30:44Veterans
00:30:44In the TNA locker room
00:30:46Oh they right in the chin
00:30:47Down goes Myers
00:30:49That was almost a knockout shot

00:30:55Looking for a tag
00:30:57Myers reaching out
00:31:00Here comes Eddie Edwards
00:31:02To meet Desmond Xavier
00:31:03Ooh

00:31:24Of the neck
00:31:24He's been called
00:31:26The cardiac kid
00:31:27For a reason

00:31:29On the move
00:31:32Davey T
00:31:33Delivered to Edwards
00:31:34Xavier

00:31:37The system for the Rascals
00:31:38Oh and a kick out
00:31:40And it's safe to say
00:31:42That
00:31:42He's long time
00:31:44Friends from Ohio
00:31:45All four members
00:31:46Of the Rascals
00:31:47Have buried the hatchet
00:31:48With their recent issues
00:31:49Take another look
00:31:50At this satellite
00:31:51DDT
00:31:52Planting Eddie Edwards
00:31:54And turning him inside out
00:31:55But it was only a two
00:31:57The match itself

00:32:10Between
00:32:11Xavier
00:32:12Wentz
00:32:12And Miguel
00:32:12But speaking to them
00:32:14Earlier on today

00:33:12Rascal reunion

00:43:00X
00:43:01Division
00:43:01Championship
00:43:02Following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the TNA X Division Championship
00:43:12Introducing first the challenger representing first class from Baltimore Maryland weighing in at 175 pounds Rich Swann
00:43:25And Rich Swann is just strutting into this match in the best shape of his entire life
00:43:34I mean Rich Swann many of us know has turned his life around in the last year
00:43:39And it shows not only in his the way he acts the way he carries himself but in his physical form
00:43:45This may be the best Rich Swann we've ever seen and I hope Leon Slater is ready for that
00:43:51The former TNA world champion and X Division champion
00:43:56And his opponent from Bradford England weighing in at 198 pounds
00:44:21He is the TNA X Division champion
00:44:26Leon Slater
00:44:31Leon Slater's had a lot on his plate as of late
00:44:35He has this defense tonight here at Turning Point
00:44:37However, Leon Slater and NXT's Javon Evans will be challenging Dark State for the NXT Tag Team Titles
00:44:46This coming Tuesday live on the CW from the theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City
00:44:51As a part of NXT Gold Rush
00:44:54We've talked about it before
00:44:56Leon Slater keeping a very very busy schedule as of late
00:45:01Still traveling back home to the UK
00:45:03Coming here to TNA making appearances and wrestling in NXT
00:45:08Leon Slater is worldwide and Leon Slater is non-stop
00:45:13You mentioned Leon Slater still makes his home in Bradford England
00:45:19He's not lost one-on-one between NXT and TNA in seven months
00:45:23Well, the last time and the only time he faced off against Rich Swann was in the United Kingdom at RevPro in March of 2023
00:45:32That match went Rich Swann's way
00:45:35So there is some history between these two
00:45:38Leon Slater not underestimating Swann
00:45:41If anything, Leon Slater's trying to bring the best out of Rich Swann
00:45:45Anybody knows Swann knows what his potential is
00:45:52What his capability is
00:45:53You mentioned it, former world champion, X Division champion
00:45:57This guy's been a champion all over the world
00:46:00Can he add one more reign to his resume tonight?
00:46:05The TNA X Division Championship is the signature title of TNA Wrestling
00:46:11First captured by the phenomenal AJ Styles back in 2002 in Huntsville, Alabama
00:46:17We've seen the likes of Samoa Joe, Abyss, Josh Alexander, Speedball Mike Bailey, Chris Sabin, Alex Shelley
00:46:25The list goes on and on of spectacular X Division champions who helped build this company
00:46:31Looking at two of them right now
00:46:34As Leon Slater, as ever, confident walking in as champ
00:46:41You heard Slater talking to Swann yesterday as that challenge was laid out
00:46:51Kind of posing the question, what have you done lately?
00:46:55I mean, running around with AJ Francis in first class
00:46:57But what have you done in that ring?
00:47:01That's what Leon Slater wants to see
00:47:02That's what he might want to pull out here of Rich Swann
00:47:05Last time we saw Rich Swann in action was in the
00:47:08Call Your Shot gauntly match at Bound for Clear
00:47:11Swann trying to withstand the larger, stronger competitor
00:47:16Swann backing up Slater into the corner
00:47:22Champions advantage, of course, to Slater
00:47:27Title cannot change hands on a countout or disqualification
00:47:30Only via pinfall or submission in the ring
00:47:33And again, Slater taking control of that exchange
00:47:37And feeling very confident
00:47:39Do you think someone like Rich Swann
00:47:43Is trying to prove something to himself in this match?
00:47:46Because I mentioned it's been over a year since he had a singles match in this company
00:47:50I would hope so
00:47:51Because at the end of the day
00:47:52The only person you've got to face in the mirror
00:47:54Back at the hotel at the end of the night
00:47:56Win, lose, or draw
00:47:57Is yourself
00:47:58And that's the only one you need to prove anything to
00:48:01Ultimately
00:48:02So Swann is out here fighting for Rich Swann
00:48:06No, you want to know if Swann still got it
00:48:13Swann picking up the pace here
00:48:18Down goes Slater
00:48:20And in the middle of the miss
00:48:24All night long
00:48:25Coming back into the fray here
00:48:28Kick right to the chest
00:48:34Swann, a former cruiserweight champion in WWE
00:48:38Here in TNA
00:48:39He won the now retired digital media championship
00:48:42Was the final TNA heavyweight champion
00:48:45There's a go!
00:48:47Oh my god!
00:48:49There's the strike
00:48:50There's the accruci!
00:48:51There's that aggression of Slater
00:48:54And look at him go!
00:48:55Look out below!
00:48:57Leon Slater
00:48:59Just kicked it into high gear
00:49:01And we've talked about that before Tom
00:49:06Let's take a look though
00:49:08Slater brought it to a whole nother level
00:49:10Look at the intensity
00:49:12When Slater gets backed into a corner
00:49:16He ups that intensity
00:49:18To another level
00:49:20We've seen how Slater has evolved as a person
00:49:24And as a competitor
00:49:25Here in TNA Wrestling over the last two years
00:49:28But how he's evolved especially as a champion
00:49:31And now 117 days
00:49:35His X Division champion has been remarkable
00:49:37He's said it since day one
00:49:40He's wise beyond his years
00:49:42Carries himself
00:49:43Like the veteran
00:49:45That he truly is
00:49:46At such a young age
00:49:47The youngest X Division champion of all time
00:49:51Accomplished that feat
00:49:52At 20 years of age
00:49:54Just turned 21
00:49:55At the back end of September
00:49:57But Tom you do wonder
00:50:02Just a little bit
00:50:03At the end of the day
00:50:04Despite all that experience
00:50:07Despite everything he brings to the table
00:50:08And I know he has
00:50:09He is still a young man
00:50:11And I feel that
00:50:13Little Bear
00:50:14Maybe getting showed up early on
00:50:16Has ticked Leon Slater off a little bit
00:50:18Slater bowed back up there
00:50:22But Swan
00:50:23Showing what he's all about
00:50:25What he's capable of
00:50:26Irony that one of Swan's greatest victories
00:50:30Came against Moose
00:50:31I mentioned the world championship
00:50:33The heavyweight championship
00:50:34On the line at one point
00:50:35The greatest victory in Leon Slater's career
00:50:38Came at Slammiversary this past summer
00:50:40At UBS Arena in New York
00:50:42Defeating Moose
00:50:43To become the youngest X Division champion of all time
00:50:46Once again Swan now
00:50:50Having Slater's number here
00:50:52Despite the amount of time
00:50:56That Slater has put in
00:50:58In his young number of years
00:51:00Rich Swan still has the experience advantage
00:51:03On Slater
00:51:04Shot right to the midsection
00:51:09Swan
00:51:10Taking down Slater
00:51:12Oh
00:51:14And for the rolling splash
00:51:15Got caught with a double knee
00:51:16Slater trying to retain
00:51:18And a kick out
00:51:18Any counter from the X Division champion
00:51:20Oh and down goes Slater
00:51:24Face first into the steal
00:51:26That was nasty landing
00:51:29And immediately you see a ringside position
00:51:31Going to check on Leon Slater
00:51:34Slater favoring his left eye
00:51:38I think his eye
00:51:40Went into the point
00:51:41Of the same steps
00:51:43Oh my god
00:51:43I don't even want
00:51:44To think about that
00:51:45A referee
00:51:51Page Prince of Ali
00:51:52Checking on Leon Slater
00:51:53Trying to see
00:51:53If he can go
00:51:54Medical staff
00:51:55Trying to evaluate
00:51:58Lay on
00:51:58Oh and that was
00:51:59Swan in pursuit
00:52:01And Slater's
00:52:02Going to push forward
00:52:03I mean
00:52:04His eye might be messed up
00:52:06But he at least saw that coming
00:52:07Slater
00:52:11Slater's clearly messed up
00:52:13Depth perception
00:52:15Could be all off
00:52:16Which
00:52:16Oh
00:52:17Certainly disoriented
00:52:19Now
00:52:20There's the cover
00:52:21Swan trying to win the title
00:52:22And a kick out
00:52:23Again
00:52:24You gotta wonder
00:52:26How wise it is
00:52:27To continue
00:52:28After something like this
00:52:29Take another look
00:52:30All the way out
00:52:31And out to the outside
00:52:32I think you're right
00:52:33Tom
00:52:34Nearly right into that corner
00:52:35That point
00:52:36Of the stairs
00:52:38Now watch this
00:52:39One more time
00:52:40Not the first time
00:52:47I've seen something
00:52:48Of that nature
00:52:49But still
00:52:50And even
00:52:51Even if it's not the point
00:52:52I mean
00:52:52If it's a
00:52:52Black eye
00:52:54Of bruising
00:52:54It swells up
00:52:55And it even just
00:52:56Affects your vision
00:52:57At all
00:52:58A little bit
00:52:59Considering the style
00:53:01Of Leon Slater
00:53:02And all the high flying
00:53:03He does
00:53:04And whether you like it
00:53:05Or not
00:53:05It's smart by Swan
00:53:06To kick to the left eye
00:53:07Hold on
00:53:09Slater caught Swan
00:53:10Talk about getting disoriented
00:53:14Down goes Swan
00:53:16There's the power of Slater
00:53:17There's the power of Slater
00:53:17Cover
00:53:18Shoulders down
00:53:19Swan stays in it
00:53:21But again
00:53:24Still favoring
00:53:25Trying to
00:53:26Reopen that eye
00:53:28Let's take a look
00:53:30Back here
00:53:30What just transpired
00:53:32Here
00:53:32Transpired here
00:53:33Moments ago
00:53:33Down went
00:53:34Swan
00:53:35In a heap
00:53:35Huge spinning
00:53:37Side slam
00:53:38Almost had the title
00:53:40Retained there
00:53:41Slater
00:53:41His equilibrium
00:53:42Is thrown off
00:53:43So he returned
00:53:44The favor
00:53:44I guess to Swan
00:53:45And then some
00:53:46Valiant effort
00:53:50Here from the
00:53:50X Division champion
00:53:51No doubt about that
00:53:52A left eye
00:53:53The orbital bone
00:53:55Certainly have to be
00:53:56Questions
00:53:56But
00:53:56That's for our
00:53:57Medical staff
00:53:58To determine
00:53:59Somewhere down the line
00:54:00A shot to the left eye
00:54:01There by Swan
00:54:02And
00:54:02Like it or not
00:54:03I mean
00:54:04It's a smart move
00:54:05And you can see
00:54:06Slater trying to
00:54:07Reach out there
00:54:07Swan
00:54:08Stayed on
00:54:09Slater's blind side
00:54:11That's all it took
00:54:12Though
00:54:12With one shot
00:54:13To the eye
00:54:13To immediately
00:54:14Interrupt anything
00:54:15Slater wanted to do
00:54:16Swan
00:54:18Back up on the apron
00:54:19Leon Slater
00:54:20Swagging it up
00:54:21Back in
00:54:22Slingshot cutter
00:54:23Hook to the leg
00:54:25Trying to hold on
00:54:26To his title
00:54:26And a kick out
00:54:27By the challenger
00:54:28And every spare second
00:54:31Slater going back
00:54:33To that eye
00:54:33But continuing to push
00:54:34Forward here
00:54:35Let's go Leon
00:54:37Let's go Leon
00:54:40And now Leon Slater
00:54:42Who's he gonna do it
00:54:43Trying to step through
00:54:45For the Styles Clash
00:54:47But Swan
00:54:48Look at it
00:54:49Bringing his arms
00:54:49Back around
00:54:50Fighting
00:54:50Well scouted
00:54:53Swan has seen
00:54:55Slater utilize
00:54:57The Styles Clash
00:54:58And had an answer
00:55:00For it
00:55:01Oh
00:55:04Kick right to the head
00:55:06Kick right to the head
00:55:06Neckbreaker by Swan
00:55:09Swan once again
00:55:13Ooh
00:55:14Oh kick back there
00:55:17By Swan
00:55:18Slater's down
00:55:19Swan continues the attack
00:55:22On the
00:55:22The eye
00:55:23And the head
00:55:24Oh wait a minute
00:55:25It's a crossbody
00:55:26Cover
00:55:27Oh a kick
00:55:29Out there
00:55:29By Slater
00:55:30He said Slater
00:55:31Was trying to get up
00:55:32For a counter
00:55:32Swan beat him
00:55:34To the punch
00:55:34I've been in the ring
00:55:36With Swan
00:55:36I can tell you
00:55:37Just how quickly
00:55:38He can turn things
00:55:39Around on a dime
00:55:40There have been times
00:55:42You've seen Slater
00:55:43Go for counters
00:55:44In that type of situation
00:55:46Perhaps for a cutter
00:55:47You could see Slater
00:55:48Trying to get himself up
00:55:50But Swan was just
00:55:51A step ahead
00:55:52And small thing
00:55:53Maybe couldn't judge
00:55:53The distance
00:55:54Because of everything
00:55:55With his eye
00:55:55But here
00:55:56Look at Slater
00:55:57The desperation
00:55:58Almost
00:55:58Grabbing at the leg
00:56:00Of Rich Swan here
00:56:01Slater
00:56:10Defiant
00:56:11In the face
00:56:12Of Rich Swan
00:56:13Swan continuing
00:56:16To fight too
00:56:17Oh god
00:56:22Slater continuing
00:56:24To favor that eye
00:56:25Oh and it's only
00:56:26Going to get worse
00:56:27This has turned
00:56:29Into a hard hitting
00:56:30Affair
00:56:31Fast
00:56:32Whoa
00:56:32Caught up on the shoulders
00:56:34Slater
00:56:36Go for Utopia
00:56:38Center of the ring
00:56:39Got it
00:56:40Now
00:56:44Is it time
00:56:46To put it away
00:56:48Can he hit the mark
00:56:49Slater up top
00:56:52Swan is down
00:56:53Thought about the
00:56:54Swan time
00:56:55450
00:56:56Rich Swan had
00:56:58That one scouted
00:56:59Once again
00:57:01Was going for
00:57:02The slingshot
00:57:02Cutter
00:57:03Swan
00:57:03Sensed it coming
00:57:04Held on
00:57:05Went for a DDT
00:57:07Now counter
00:57:08For counter
00:57:08For counter
00:57:09Oh my god
00:57:10Swan might have him
00:57:12Can he win the title
00:57:13Oh kick out
00:57:14Rich Swan has an answer
00:57:17For everything
00:57:19There's a cutter
00:57:20Swan has Slater
00:57:26Down
00:57:26Can he capture the
00:57:27X-Division championship
00:57:29450
00:57:29Is it enough
00:57:32New champions
00:57:33Slater kicked out
00:57:34At two
00:57:35Swan cannot believe it
00:57:37The number of matches
00:57:41He has won
00:57:42With that cutter
00:57:43Into the 450
00:57:45But tonight
00:57:46Not enough
00:57:47To get the job
00:57:49Done

00:58:14Swan
00:58:16With it
00:58:16At 450
00:58:17Moments ago
00:58:18We've seen him
00:58:18Use the Phoenix
00:58:19Splash
00:58:20In the past
00:58:21Slater though
00:58:24Able to
00:58:25Stop the momentum
00:58:26Up top
00:58:27Now
00:58:28Dangerous territory

00:58:34Oh god
00:58:37Stiff shots
00:58:38And Swan

00:58:42Straight headbutt
00:58:44To the injured eye
00:58:46Right to the eye
00:58:47To that orbital area
00:58:48And look at this
00:58:50Wait wait
00:58:50Oh
00:58:51Slater went up
00:58:52And got Swan

00:59:12Has regained control
00:59:14On wobbly legs
00:59:16Or no
00:59:17Slater trying to
00:59:18Gather himself
00:59:19Swan is down

01:05:40But tonight
01:05:40We're sold out
01:05:41Here in Orlando Florida
01:05:43At Full Sail University
01:05:44And it's time
01:05:45For our main event
01:05:46The co-winner
01:05:48Of the Call Your Shot
01:05:49Gauntlet Trophy
01:05:49Nick Nemeth
01:05:50And the brand new
01:05:51TNA World Champion
01:05:53Frankie Kazarian
01:05:54Scheduled to face
01:05:55Mike Santana
01:05:56And Steve Macklin
01:05:58TNA which is the
01:06:16TNA International
01:06:16He is the TNA International
01:06:18First, from Rutherford, New Jersey, weighing in at 227 pounds,
01:06:24he is the TNA International Champion,
01:06:31Bulletproof, Steve Macklin!
01:06:36Now, Macklin was really fired up earlier on tonight addressing this matchup,
01:06:41but the situation we've all been attempting to monitor here today in TNA Wrestling
01:06:45is what's going on with his tag team partner.
01:06:48As of now, Mike Santana is not here at Full Sail University.
01:06:53He's not been here all day.
01:06:55And it was Steve Macklin who said earlier on today,
01:06:59whether I have a partner or not, I'm prepared to dive into the fray against Nemeth and Kazarian.
01:07:05We know that Macklin has been very forward about holding the line here in TNA.
01:07:10He's ready to do that again.
01:07:18And this should be the moment when Mike Santana joins us here for this main event matchup.
01:07:28Macklin said earlier on tonight he's not heard from Santana all day.
01:07:31It has been radio silence from the former world champion.
01:07:43Oh, my gosh.
01:07:46Is Macklin really going to have to fight this battle?
01:07:49One versus two.
01:07:50And his opponent first accompanied to the ring by Brian Nemeth from Cleveland, Ohio,
01:08:02weighing in at 213 pounds, the wanted man, Nick Nemeth.
01:08:12Oh, it certainly appears, as they always say, the show must go on.
01:08:19Macklin standing here.
01:08:21And we both know Steve Macklin very well.
01:08:24We know he's willing to fight two-on-one.
01:08:26I just don't know how good it'll be for his future.
01:08:35And let's do not forget, Nick Nemeth still has his opportunity to call his shot,
01:08:42and he let Frankie Kazarian know as such earlier tonight.
01:08:46But they did promise to settle business in this match first.
01:08:50I'll say this, Nick Nemeth is responsible for one of the most electric moments of pro wrestling history.
01:08:56Twelve years ago, he cashed in.
01:08:59Could Nick Nemeth call his shot tonight on his own tag team partner?
01:09:09And his tag team partner from Yucca Valley, California, weighing in at 220 pounds,
01:09:16he is the TNA World Champion, Frankie Kazarian.
01:09:29Everybody and their brother can cry and post all they want.
01:09:35This is something a long time coming.
01:09:38Over 23 years for Frankie Kazarian to make a dream, a well-earned dream come true.
01:09:46People like Christopher Daniels, Nick Aldis, Bully Ray,
01:09:50all taking and going public with their congratulations,
01:09:55despite how it may have gone down, that this is a man who's earned that title.
01:10:01I respect the resume of Frankie Kazarian just as much as those men and legends you just mentioned.
01:10:08But it's the manner in which he's conducted himself over the last two years.
01:10:13He ruined Slammiversary this past summer.
01:10:17He made it all about himself.
01:10:19And then, when he saw an opportunity amidst chaos,
01:10:23and it's not clear whether or not Frankie Kazarian had a part in NXT's infiltration of Impact last night,
01:10:31Carlos Silva said it himself earlier on in the countdown to Turning Point.
01:10:34An investigation has been launched.
01:10:36There's extra security here tonight.
01:10:38Did Frankie Kazarian go into business with a bunch of NXT stars
01:10:43just to try and get Mike Santana vulnerable so he can win the title?
01:10:48That's eluded him for 20 years.
01:10:51Jumped the gun much?
01:10:53What happened to Innocent until proven guilty?
01:10:55I'm not going to believe anything until it's shown in any kind of investigation.
01:11:01I've said it before.
01:11:02I'll say it again.
01:11:03Nobody is more TNA than our current world champion.
01:11:07Well, I'll say Steve Macklin's pretty damn TNA.
01:11:10Where's my boy?
01:11:13Looks like it's just me, so, uh...
01:11:15Screw it.
01:11:18Oh!
01:11:18Oh, and Macklin going after Nemeth and Kazarian all by himself in this tag team match.
01:11:24I mean, that's no surprise to anybody who has known Steve Macklin for more than five minutes.
01:11:29He is ready for a fight.
01:11:31And there's the bell.
01:11:32Our main event is underway without Mike Santana.
01:11:37Macklin, he's not stopping.
01:11:40What a scud to the new TNA world champion.
01:11:44Oh, sights change locked in on Nemeth.
01:11:50And now Macklin staring down Ryan Nemeth,
01:11:54who made an enemy out of Mara Shade and Gia Miller earlier on tonight.
01:11:59Mike said Mara Shade is, quote, dumb and lazy.
01:12:02I think he said Gia was dumb and lazy as well.
01:12:05Yep, not a great move there by Ryan.
01:12:07Oh, elbow right to the back of the head.
01:12:10And if Macklin can keep this pace up,
01:12:12I mean, he may actually have a chance to win this all on his own.
01:12:16Olympic slam.
01:12:17Macklin into the cover, pressing the shoulders down,
01:12:20and a two-count on Nemeth.
01:12:22Already managed to eliminate Kazarian from the equation.
01:12:25Take control of former world champion Nick Nemeth.
01:12:29Remember the battle that Nemeth and Macklin had at Sacrifice 2024.
01:12:37Now Macklin has him caught in his sights one more time.
01:12:41Remember that night at Sacrifice?
01:12:43That didn't go so well for Steve Macklin.
01:12:45It landed in the bellkeeper's lap.
01:12:48Oh, this time Nemeth gets caught in the crosshairs.
01:12:52Here's the cover up to the inside leg.
01:12:54And Nemeth gets his foot on the bottom rope.
01:12:57Ryan Nemeth quick to point it out to Daniel Spencer, a referee.
01:13:01And I'll tell you, that just goes to show the kind of jeopardy
01:13:04Macklin's already put Nemeth in
01:13:05as Macklin now runs off the little brother.
01:13:09And Ray Wolfe, this is not just one versus two, one versus three,
01:13:13but I mentioned Morris shot eight.
01:13:16Well, at least he dried her hair off.
01:13:22Hair looks dry.
01:13:23Hair looks dry.
01:13:24Hair looks fantastic.
01:13:26Hair looks dry now.
01:13:27Now Ryan Nemeth caught in the back.
01:13:28Oh, who's dumb now?
01:13:35Easy now.
01:13:37Easy now.
01:13:37Ryan Nemeth slammed down on the job.
01:13:39He's lazy as well.
01:13:40He got unfairly assaulted, but that's beyond the point.
01:13:45But Macklin trying to endure amidst what felt like.
01:13:50Oh, a three-on-one situation.
01:13:53Now it's two-on-one.
01:13:55Kazarian smashing Macklin into the steel steps.
01:13:58And here's the thing.
01:13:59If Macklin could have maintained that control,
01:14:02he may have stood a chance.
01:14:03I don't know.
01:14:04I don't know, man.
01:14:06Famous, sir.
01:14:07Nemeth trying to put away the international champion
01:14:10and a kickout.
01:14:11Now that his momentum has been halted,
01:14:14now the two-on-one truly begins.
01:14:18The former TNA world champion, Mike Santana,
01:14:21has not been heard from all day.
01:14:24Not since last night,
01:14:26when the TNA world championship
01:14:28was ripped away from him amidst chaos.
01:14:32TNA was overrun by NXT stars.
01:14:35Then Frankie Kazarian called his shot
01:14:38for a TNA world title match.
01:14:40It was truly the perfect storm.
01:14:43Covered and a kickout by Macklin.
01:14:45I can't blame Mike Santana for how he's feeling.
01:14:48I can't even imagine after all the work he put in
01:14:52to have it go down like that.
01:14:56But at the end of the day,
01:14:58you have your obligations.
01:15:01And now Macklin is paying the price for that.
01:15:05You can understand why Mike Santana is furious
01:15:08with Frankie Kazarian, of course.
01:15:10Why he's furious with the NXT stars that attacked him
01:15:13and damaged his right arm.
01:15:14Here's the cover and a kickout.
01:15:17Why he's got to be upset with management,
01:15:19with TNA and NXT,
01:15:21this partnership which seems so cozy
01:15:23earlier on last night.
01:15:24As you talked about between Santino and Ava,
01:15:27now we have extra security all over the building
01:15:29tonight for Turning Point.
01:15:31He may have just seen that relationship explode.
01:15:35Oh, lead drop by the brand new TNA world champion,
01:15:40Frankie Kazarian.
01:15:42Can't score the win,
01:15:43but you can completely understand
01:15:45why Santana is beyond frustrated.
01:15:48Well, of course,
01:15:49but at the end of the day,
01:15:51work is work.
01:15:53The show goes on.
01:15:55The only thing you can do is move forward,
01:15:57not run away.
01:16:01Santana's dream was dashed.
01:16:03One month as champion.
01:16:06Didn't even get through a full title defense.
01:16:09I am going to speculate.
01:16:10It does feel like Frankie Kazarian
01:16:13could have had something new
01:16:14with those NXT stars getting involved last night.
01:16:16I just can't see it.
01:16:18You can't.
01:16:19You can't.
01:16:20Everything Frankie Kazarian's done this past year
01:16:22is covering a kickout.
01:16:25I get that,
01:16:26but I'm going to stand on my own line.
01:16:28That's the one thing he wouldn't do.
01:16:31The one thing he wouldn't do?
01:16:32No.
01:16:33Take advantage of the opportunity.
01:16:34Take advantage of the chaos.
01:16:36Clearly.
01:16:36That's fine.
01:16:37He's called himself.
01:16:38He's a self-described scumbag
01:16:40and is fine with it.
01:16:42That's what I mean.
01:16:43He's very willing to admit
01:16:45when he's done something underhanded,
01:16:47especially the man we've known
01:16:48the last two years.
01:16:49but allowing and orchestrating it
01:16:53with NXT does not feel right to me.
01:16:58But the answers,
01:16:59either way,
01:16:59we have to wait till those answers flush out.
01:17:02What a stupid boot up.
01:17:06Kazarian,
01:17:06he told Nemeth earlier on tonight
01:17:09to follow my lead
01:17:10and trust me.
01:17:11And Nemeth said,
01:17:11all right,
01:17:12I'll trust you for tonight
01:17:13and then I'm going to call my shot.
01:17:15And he made it very clear
01:17:16to the current world champ
01:17:18that tonight,
01:17:20it can and likely will go down.
01:17:22There's a chance
01:17:23we could see three different TNA world champions
01:17:25in the span of 24 hours,
01:17:27Ray Wall.
01:17:28Unreal.
01:17:30Now looking for a double superplex here.
01:17:33You come on.
01:17:35Sounds like Nemeth and Kazarian
01:17:37are arguing over this superplex.
01:17:39They can't even get along
01:17:40in a two-on-one match.
01:17:43And meanwhile,
01:17:44oh, Daniel Nemeth and Kazarian.
01:17:47Macklin has endured
01:17:48up to this point.
01:17:51Now look out below.
01:17:53Double drum kick.
01:17:57Macklin levels the playing field.
01:18:00Macklin may have opened a window here.
01:18:03This main event matchup
01:18:05continues to play out here
01:18:07at turning point.
01:18:09What the?
01:18:17Mike Santana!
01:18:19Santana!
01:18:22Santana Marella
01:18:23letting him through the security.
01:18:25Said nobody in or out
01:18:26without approval.
01:18:27That's your approval.
01:18:29Santana
01:18:30is in
01:18:31the building.
01:18:33Man.
01:18:34Santana
01:18:35bracing for a fight.
01:18:38Santana!
01:18:39Santana!
01:18:40Santana!
01:18:40Santana!
01:18:41And there is the former
01:18:43TNA world champion
01:18:45Mike Santana
01:18:46is here
01:18:47at turning point.
01:18:49making a beeline
01:18:51for the ring.
01:18:52Mike Santana
01:18:53is unleashed.
01:18:55You can see
01:18:55the heavily taped right arm.
01:18:57Kazarian immediately
01:18:59jumped out of the ring.
01:19:01Santana tagged in.
01:19:02He doesn't care
01:19:03who he's got to fight.
01:19:04He just needs to hit
01:19:05someone
01:19:06and something.
01:19:08Santana's out for blood.
01:19:09Mike Santana
01:19:10wants his payback.
01:19:13This is the human embodiment
01:19:14of Hell Hath No Fury.
01:19:17Mike Santana
01:19:18has been scored
01:19:19and the world
01:19:19will know.
01:19:22Oh, kick right
01:19:23to the face
01:19:24of Nick Nemeth.
01:19:27And there's the new
01:19:28TNA world champion
01:19:30Frankie Kazarian
01:19:31running from Santana.
01:19:33I can't blame him
01:19:33wanting nothing
01:19:34to do with this
01:19:35madman.
01:19:36And now Nemeth
01:19:39trying to pick up
01:19:40the pace.
01:19:42Up under the shoulders
01:19:43cover the DVD.
01:19:48And now turning
01:19:49his attention.
01:19:50Oh, to the top.
01:19:52Santana
01:19:53levels the champion.
01:19:54put that right arm.
01:19:58That right arm
01:19:59that got absolutely
01:20:00obliterated last night
01:20:02courtesy of the
01:20:03NXT wrestlers
01:20:04who stormed the ring.
01:20:12Mike Santana
01:20:14has got to push
01:20:15through the pain.
01:20:17He refused medical
01:20:18attention after last night.
01:20:20Oh, and a kick
01:20:24to the right arm
01:20:25by Nemeth.
01:20:26Nemeth knows
01:20:27a wounded dog
01:20:28when he sees it.
01:20:30Oh!
01:20:34And a bullseye
01:20:35on the right arm
01:20:36of Mike Santana.
01:20:37And now Nick Nemeth
01:20:38trying to close out
01:20:40this matchup.
01:20:41Got his eyes locked
01:20:44on the former
01:20:45world champion.
01:20:51Super kick!
01:20:53Lights out!
01:20:54Is that it?
01:20:56Santana kicked out
01:20:58at two!
01:21:03Mike Santana
01:21:04staying in this fight.
01:21:07But now Frankie
01:21:08considering with
01:21:09a golden opportunity.
01:21:10And there's
01:21:11Steve Macklin
01:21:12to back him up!
01:21:14To back up Santana!
01:21:16Takes Nemeth

01:21:30and a kick out!
01:21:31Almost an exact
01:21:32repeat.
01:21:33Santana has an answer
01:21:34though.
01:21:34Oh!
01:21:35Big forearm shiver
01:21:36by the champ!
01:21:37Oh!
01:21:39Die!
01:21:40Oh!

01:21:45Fights through the pain
01:21:46to take the head

01:21:49Santana was built
01:21:51to suffer!
01:21:52And he makes
01:21:53Kazarian suffer
01:21:54tonight!
01:21:57Here are your
01:21:59winners!
01:22:00The team of
01:22:01Mike Santana
01:22:02and the TNA
01:22:04and the TNA
01:22:04international champion
01:22:07Steve Macklin!
01:22:12Santana
01:22:12spent the last
01:22:1424 hours
01:22:15in a feud state,
01:22:16an emotional
01:22:17storm.
01:22:19But when the
01:22:20time was right,
01:22:21came back
01:22:22and struck.
01:22:24And he struck
01:22:29at the heart
01:22:30of the man
01:22:31who stole
01:22:32his title
01:22:33away.
01:22:36You can only
01:22:37imagine the
01:22:38battle that's
01:22:38been going on
01:22:39in the mind
01:22:40of Mike Santana
01:22:41over the last
01:22:4324 hours.
01:22:45Heartbreak
01:22:46at Slammiversary.
01:22:47the ultimate
01:22:48accomplishment
01:22:49in battle for
01:22:50glory in front
01:22:51of his daughter
01:22:51Ariana.
01:22:53And just a
01:22:53month later,
01:22:54it was snatched
01:22:55away from him
01:22:56through the
01:22:57chaos and
01:22:58controversy.
01:23:03That pinfall
01:23:04may feel good
01:23:04tonight,
01:23:05but it's still
01:23:08not the pinfall
01:23:08Santana wants.
01:23:11You know
01:23:12that.
01:23:13Wait a second.
01:23:17You remember
01:23:19what Nick
01:23:20Nemeth said
01:23:20earlier on
01:23:21tonight.
01:23:21We talked
01:23:22about it.
01:23:24Kaz is laid
01:23:25out in the
01:23:26ring.
01:23:28Wait!
01:23:31Nick Nemeth
01:23:32wants to
01:23:33call a shot
01:23:34for a TNA
01:23:35world title
01:23:36match.
01:23:37I mean,
01:23:37you can't
01:23:38play.
01:23:38He said
01:23:38he would.
01:23:39Are you
01:23:40kidding?
01:23:41What?
01:23:42Not again.
01:23:43What the
01:23:43security?
01:23:46The same
01:23:47NXT wrestlers
01:23:48who attacked
01:23:48last night
01:23:49are back
01:23:50at turning

01:23:52How?
01:23:52How in the
01:23:53hell is this
01:23:54happening?
01:23:55How do they
01:23:56break through
01:23:56the security?
01:23:59This cannot
01:24:00be allowed to
01:24:01happen.
01:24:02Two nights
01:24:03in a row.
01:24:05What in the
01:24:06blue hell is

01:24:17Macklin
01:24:18trying to
01:24:18fight back.
01:24:19Santana wasn't
01:24:20100% to
01:24:21begin with.
01:24:22But look
01:24:22who's untouched
01:24:23Raywell.
01:24:24Kazarian.

01:24:29Is he in
01:24:31danger or is
01:24:32he being
01:24:32protected?
01:24:34We don't know
01:24:35anything.
01:24:38He certainly
01:24:39does not look
01:24:40comfortable.
01:24:41I'll tell you
01:24:41that.
01:24:41He's not
01:24:42leading this
01:24:42pack.

01:24:50Kazarian is a
01:24:51target.
01:24:52There you go.
01:24:53There's your
01:24:53answer.
01:24:55It doesn't
01:24:56matter who
01:24:56stands up for
01:24:57TNA.

01:25:21too much.
01:25:25If it was a
01:25:26fair fight it'd
01:25:27be one thing.
01:25:29But they had
01:25:30the jump.
01:25:31If they had
