00:00:00...Wed off the air live on AMC. More on that in a moment, but this matchup is underway. A non
00:00:05-title bout. This is Matt Hardy to start things off against Travis Williams.
00:00:10And you heard me mention it just moments ago. Again, also after last week, the system's Ryan Myers, Bear Bronson
00:00:17have a title shot at some point in the future against the Hardys.
00:00:21But, as we often say, if Suteran Sane can get a win against the Ramey Champs, that puts them right
00:00:27at the front of the line as well.
00:00:29Last week, we saw a four-way tag team matchup to determine the new number one contenders to the tag
00:00:35team titles. To your point, won by Bronson and Myers. Suteran Sane took part in that matchup and looked very,
00:00:43very good.
00:00:44When they get going, when they pick up that high-speed tag team offense, it is very hard to stop
00:00:50them. The Hardys' going to lean all the way into all their experience, and there's that speed that I'm talking
00:00:56about.
00:00:56And, Ray Wall, your former NXT tag team champion, Suteran Sane, they're on the come-up, promising, but when you
00:01:04step into the ring with living legends, icons like the Hardys, how do you handle it?
00:01:09You gotta stand down. Even if you deny it, there's gonna be nerves when you're in there. Trust me, I've
00:01:15been in there with the likes of Jeff Hardy.
00:01:17It is an extra level of energy. Those nerves, no matter how long you've done this, are there. You gotta
00:01:22do your best to tap those down and go to your wheelhouse and do what you do best.
00:01:28The Hardys' four-time TNA World Tag Team Champions earlier on this week. They moved into second place all-time
00:01:37with the second-longest TNA World Tag Team Championship, reign only behind the North.
00:01:43On the move. A little poetry in motion by the Hardys'.
00:01:47There's a cover by Matt Hardy.
00:01:50Shoulders down and a kick out by Williams.
00:01:52Still to come here this evening. As I mentioned, a bombshell was dropped last week to close out Impact regarding
00:01:58Sacrifice.
00:02:00Not only was Steve Macklin reinstated to TNA Wrestling, but he's also going to be challenging Mike Santana for the
00:02:07TNA World title at Sacrifice.
00:02:09And part of the clause for that matchup being signed, Steve Macklin has to apologize to me tonight.
00:02:16Regardless, still to come this evening, Moose to play for the Atlanta Falcons. Going to take on...
00:02:22Cover here from Williams to the Goats. No, Hardy stays alive.
00:02:25Moose is going to take on Centric Alexander in an Atlanta street fight. Moose trying to pick off the system
00:02:32one by one.
00:02:33Meanwhile, Indy Hartwell will be in action. She is eyeing the Knockouts World Championship, trying to ascend.
00:02:41Cover here by Icarus to put Hardy away, but no.
00:02:44Meanwhile, A.J. Francis will go one-on-one with Elijah. Some fallout from the King's speech with Frankie Kazarian
00:02:51last week.
00:02:52Also, this fantastic six-man tag team matchup. The TNA International Champion Trey Miguel.
00:02:58Atlanta's own BDE and Rick Swine up against the returning Mustafa Ali and the Great Hands with Order 4.
00:03:05And also, it's the AMC and Impacted View of the international sensation Ricky Sosa Trey here in Atlanta.
00:03:16And meanwhile, Jeff Hardy has tagged in and turned this matchup on its head. The charismatic enigma is unleashed.
00:03:27Classic Jeff Hardy and the low dropkick there right to the face. Elbow drop to the heart.
00:03:33Enough. Cover. Icarus able to stay alive.
00:03:39Absolutely packed night of action tonight that you just listed off there and what a way to start all of
00:03:45it here.
00:03:45Went for the twist of fate. Jeff Hardy favoring his left knee.
00:03:50Sometimes it can be that simple. A simple turn of the knee.
00:03:54You've got to deal with something you weren't planning on. An injury.
00:03:58Tank B.
00:03:59Considerance ain't take advantage here. Big opening.
00:04:06Judas Icarus with a frog splash. Here's the cover. Oh, and it's broken up by Matt Hardy.
00:04:12Justin and Icatine, veteran instincts from Matt Hardy. They're now depositing Williams out of the picture.
00:04:20Look out. Side-effect by Matt Hardy.
00:04:25Matt Hardy protecting his brother Jeff.
00:04:29Now, could be just a matter of moments here.
00:04:34Jeff Hardy's going to the top. Jeff Hardy's legal thing about the Swanton Bomb, but there's Williams taking Matt Hardy
00:04:41out of the room.
00:04:42Icarus slowed up Jeff Hardy.
00:04:45Diving through the ropes there, tripping up Hardy up top. That was a beautiful move by Icarus.
00:04:52And now Icarus went for another frog splash. Hardy still favoring the left knee.
00:04:57Oh!
00:05:00Oh, and now we've seen this submission from Jeff Hardy a number of times.
00:05:04He calls this the spinal destination.
00:05:08And they'll get a twist of fate.
00:05:09And there it is! How about center and side tap to the Hardys?
00:05:16Here are your winners, the TNA World Tag Team Champions, the Hardys!
00:05:25Oh, a hardy party to start off the night. Ultimately, it was, as you said, final destination.
00:05:32A twist of fate just to add a little bit of extra padding.
00:05:37And that is the win. The GOATs, the Tag Team Champions.
00:05:41We're in it! The GOATs are done!
00:05:43Try to send a message! Swanton Bomb!
00:05:50And the party keeps rolling!
00:05:55Williams and Icarus certainly got the Hardys in some mood tonight.
00:06:02I think, Braywalt, this was not necessarily a bouncing or insane.
00:06:06This is a message to the system.
00:06:08Bronson and Myers, who have a future TNA World Tag Team title shot.
00:06:12Oh, I'm sure their eyes are glued to a monitor somewhere, but look at this.
00:06:18Great sign of respect, however, between the Hardys and Civer and St. Williams and Icarus, I believe, are going to
00:06:25do great things here at TNA.
00:06:27No doubt about it, the Tag Team ranks are strong in TNA wrestling.
00:06:37Tonight's main event begins Moose's trek to take the system apart one by one, and it starts right here.
00:06:44It is going to be an Atlanta street fight as Moose takes on Cedric Alexander in tonight's main event.
00:06:53Well, coming up next, we saw how Indy Hartwell had her eye on the Knockouts World Championship match last week.
00:07:00Indy Hartwell is in action next, here on Thursday Night Impact on AMC.
00:07:08Ladies and gentlemen, I'm standing by with the elegance.
00:07:12Gia, Gia, I want to talk about what happened last week.
00:07:15And ODB, ODB, you, you...
00:07:18You are an animal!
00:07:20You stay out of our business!
00:07:22And speaking of farm animals, I want to talk about that relic, Nicky James.
00:07:25You stay out of our business, too!
00:07:26Stop riding our coattails and trying to get relevant again.
00:07:29That's not important.
00:07:30What's important is next week and the in-ring debut of the greatest specimen in professional wrestling,
00:07:37Mr. Elegance.
00:07:39And I just hope he doesn't have to deal with one of those other old timers from the past that
00:07:43keeps showing up to TNA!
00:07:46But Gia, I bet you think it's so neat that these former knockouts keep coming back.
00:07:52I bet you think it's so cool!
00:07:55Well, actually...
00:07:55Shut up, Gia!
00:07:56Nobody asked for your opinion!
00:07:58Your job is to hold the microphone and you don't even do a good job at that!
00:08:01I feel the need to interrupt.
00:08:04Hi, Cody Laws!
00:08:05Hi, Gia!
00:08:06You know, I do miss this job and I miss this place.
00:08:10But you know what I don't miss?
00:08:12The disrespect.
00:08:13How dare any of you disrespect Gia or the knockouts who have paved the way.
00:08:21Women like Mickey.
00:08:22Women like ODB.
00:08:24Women who fought when no one was giving any, any respect to women's wrestling.
00:08:31Gia's doing an amazing job.
00:08:34And she's earned this.
00:08:35Something none of you know anything about.
00:08:40Why don't you step off before I make a call and bring back more of my old friends
00:08:46to remind you exactly where you stand.
00:08:52Weren't you like working here when I was four years old?
00:08:59Four years old?
00:09:01You need to just sit down and be quiet, kid.
00:09:05Because the adults are talking.
00:09:09What?
00:09:10Get out of here!
00:09:19Oh, the Goldilocks!
00:09:21Hey!
00:09:22The Elegance brand!
00:09:23Look who's on top now!
00:09:28Fumbling contest is scheduled for one call!
00:09:32Introducing first, from Melbourne, Australia, Indy Hartwell!
00:09:40There was a crowded scene last week as we saw Ariana Grace cut corners and cheat to retain her TNA
00:09:47Knockouts World Championship against Jody Threat.
00:09:50But it was the scene at ringside, Jill out of company.
00:09:53There were so many eyes on that Knockouts World title match.
00:09:57Indy Hartwell certainly one of them.
00:09:59But she was not alone.
00:10:01Tessa Blanchard, Leying Lee, Zion Brookside, Danny Luna among those.
00:10:06It is a crowded field in the Knockouts Division.
00:10:09And her opponent, from Tampa, Florida, Kelsey Heather!
00:10:15Kelsey Heather ready for action here in Atlanta, Georgia, inside the Gateway Center Arena.
00:10:20Big night of action still on tap.
00:10:23We saw the Hardys successful to kick things off in a non-title matchup against Sinner and Saint.
00:10:29There's the bell.
00:10:30Indy Hartwell one-on-one with Kelsey Heather.
00:10:33Hartwell, who challenged for the Knockouts World Championship back at Bound for Glory in October last year.
00:10:39Our biggest event of the year, and I would say her signature victory thus far in TNA Wrestling,
00:10:44came at Slammiversary last July at the UBS Arena in New York against Tessa Blanchard.
00:10:51Now, you're just lucky Tessa Blanchard isn't out here tonight bringing up that old history.
00:10:55I am happy to say it to her face and anybody else's face.
00:10:59Right now, Indy Hartwell, she's making that claim of wanting that Knockouts World title.
00:11:06But, unlike many of the faces that were out here during the match last week, Indy Hartwell does not have
00:11:11a guaranteed match.
00:11:12She's got to punch her ticket there.
00:11:14She's got to get wins in matches like this.
00:11:16Oh!
00:11:17That's the one thing Indy Hartwell is willing to do.
00:11:20This fight happened to earn her way.
00:11:23She was a multi-time champion in NXT once upon a time.
00:11:27She's not afraid of hard work, like the Elegance brand, for instance.
00:11:30Oh!
00:11:30They're the hardest workers in the room.
00:11:32You don't even see what Finkelstein does in the shadows.
00:11:35Meanwhile, Ash by Elegance is in the shadows.
00:11:38Uh, working hard on her mental health.
00:11:40Thank you very much.
00:11:42Oh!
00:11:42Oh!
00:11:42Kelsey Heather misses in the corner.
00:11:44Hartwell.
00:11:45Good!
00:11:45Slap blocks middle of the ring.
00:11:47Great counter.
00:11:49That is the experience factor of Indy Hartwell, no doubt about it.
00:11:53Can she put this one away and make the statement she needs to make?
00:11:57Let's go!
00:11:58Oh!
00:11:58Double shot to the throat there by Heather.
00:12:01Oh!
00:12:01Left shoulder right to the midsection of Indy Hartwell.
00:12:04One!
00:12:05Two!
00:12:05And Heather able to find an opening.
00:12:07Our referee Michael Romo applying the five count.
00:12:10Heather at the count of five to stop.
00:12:13This could be the chance for Kelsey Heather to shut down any momentum.
00:12:17Oh!
00:12:17That Indy Hartwell might have.
00:12:19Split leg bulldog there.
00:12:20Went for the drop kick.
00:12:25Hardwell can ill afford a loss tonight on impact on AMC.
00:12:30No doubt about it.
00:12:31Again, with all those claims, but Kelsey Heather could make a huge statement.
00:12:36Defeating a competitor like Indy Hartwell.
00:12:39Love the confidence!
00:12:41Oh!
00:12:42Went for the moonsault from the second row.
00:12:44Hartwell.
00:12:45Great awareness.
00:12:46Able to get out of the way.
00:12:47Oh!
00:12:48And now using those long arms and her height, her size to her advantage.
00:12:53Indy Hartwell is starting to pick up momentum once again.
00:12:57Absolutely bowling over the competition here.
00:13:00Picking the pace up.
00:13:03Splinebusters center of the ring.
00:13:08Shades of the animal from Indy Hartwell.
00:13:12Catchy put it away.
00:13:14Perks!
00:13:15Donut!
00:13:16Cover!
00:13:18Two!
00:13:18Three!
00:13:19Hartwell willing to climb to the top.
00:13:21Here is your winner, Indy Hartwell!
00:13:28Well, I said she needed to string up wins like this.
00:13:32That's a good start.
00:13:33That's a good message sent to Ariana Grace, the Knockouts World Champion.
00:13:38He's not on the top.
00:13:39So talented at the top of the party.
00:13:42That's a good message sent to Ariana Grace.
00:13:57Look, I didn't come to TNA to just have these matches and to just exist.
00:14:03I'm not the little kid who's just happy to be here anymore.
00:14:07I came here to become Knockouts Champion.
00:14:15And right now, the person holding that title
00:14:19doesn't deserve it.
00:14:23So Ariana Grace,
00:14:26I'm not asking you.
00:14:28I'm telling you.
00:14:30I want my shot.
00:14:37Laugh it! Laugh it!
00:14:40Laugh it!
00:14:40Ha ha ha ha!
00:14:41Ha ha ha!
00:14:43Ha ha ha!
00:14:45Indy!
00:14:47You are so funny.
00:14:52You really think you can come out here
00:14:55and demand a shot
00:14:57at my championship?
00:14:59That's not how it works.
00:15:01Are you dumb?
00:15:03Are you dumb?
00:15:04That's literally what you did.
00:15:05You asked, actually no.
00:15:07You manipulated your dad
00:15:09into giving you a title shot.
00:15:11That's ridiculous.
00:15:13I won this, not him.
00:15:16Look, if you want a shot at my title, sweetheart,
00:15:19then you can get in line.
00:15:22Danny Luna, Tessa Blanchard, Lei Ying Li.
00:15:28They're all saying the same thing as you.
00:15:31But the truth is, you're not even close to being on my level.
00:15:39Wait.
00:15:40Guys, hold on, hold on.
00:15:42She's right.
00:15:43She's right.
00:15:44Ariana.
00:15:45I'm not on your level.
00:15:48I'm way above it.
00:15:52And I don't have my daddy kicking down doors for me.
00:15:56I kick down doors myself.
00:15:59So add me to the list.
00:16:01Because sooner or later, I'm taking that belt from you
00:16:04and I'm becoming TNA Knockouts World Champion.
00:16:11Indy Hartwell making her intentions very clear.
00:16:15Listen, we know Lei Ying Li has a contractual rematch.
00:16:18Danny Luna is still owed a Knockouts World title shot.
00:16:22But tonight, Indy Hartwell made her case
00:16:25to the champion, Mariana Grace.
00:16:30Vincent, I want to tell you
00:16:33thank you for sacrificing yourself for us
00:16:35in our Magic Business System.
00:16:36Ah.
00:16:38No worries, boys.
00:16:40It was an honor.
00:16:41In fact, Brother Jeff, Brother Matt,
00:16:43we saw what you did out there for those two.
00:16:46You gave Sinner and Saint a career in the body moment.
00:16:49Well, someone gave us a chance back in the day
00:16:52and we paid for it.
00:16:53Right.
00:16:54And it was wonderful.
00:16:55Because you went out there,
00:16:56you sprinkled a little bit of that hearty dust on them.
00:16:59Hearty dust.
00:17:00And you gave them growth.
00:17:01You inspire!
00:17:04Well, that's our job.
00:17:06You know, we've realized after 34 years that wrestling, TNA,
00:17:11it's bigger than us.
00:17:12It's our job to pay it for you.
00:17:14Well, if that's what you think.
00:17:16But that's the thing about you two.
00:17:17It's the beautiful you give, you don't take.
00:17:22But they're coming for you.
00:17:25The system.
00:17:27They're coming for what you two have and they'll do everything they can to get it.
00:17:33But now, that we're family, you'll never be alone.
00:17:38And know this.
00:17:40Thank you.
00:17:40When you have one boot in the grave and the other dancing around the edge,
00:17:45we'll be there for the two of you.
00:17:46Again.
00:17:51I don't want to break up this little love fest here.
00:17:54It's nice.
00:17:55But I heard you speaking about the system.
00:17:58And there's just, there's other teams out there that are coming for those tag team championships.
00:18:05He's talking about us.
00:18:07The Nemets.
00:18:12Boys, you two are making a very dangerous decision to disrespecting the goats.
00:18:21Disrespecting the Hardys, huh?
00:18:23I feel like that's almost our job.
00:18:24I remember one of us hitting Jeff Hardy today.
00:18:27Who would?
00:18:28Oh, it was me.
00:18:28I pinned Jeff Hardy.
00:18:29That's right.
00:18:30He's right there.
00:18:31I pinned him.
00:18:37Well, speaking of the system, Moose is looking to take out each member of the new regime of the system
00:18:44one by one.
00:18:44Tonight, he faces Cedric Alexander in an Atlanta street fight.
00:18:48And not only that, it is A.J. Francis going one-on-one with Elijah after the King's speech exploded
00:18:55last week.
00:18:56Meanwhile, the newly reinstated Steve Macklin is going to challenge Mike Santana for the TNA world title and sacrifice.
00:19:03But he is contractually obligated to apologize to me tonight.
00:19:08But up next, it's six-man tag team action as Trey Miguel, BD, and Rich Swann take on a returning
00:19:15Mustafa Ali and order form.
00:19:22Wear your passion.
00:19:26Live your fandom.
00:19:30Show your style.

00:19:47This is episode number 1,130 of TNA Thursday Night Impact tonight in Atlanta on AMC.
00:20:05The following is a six-man tag team match scheduled for one fall.
00:20:09Introducing first, from Toledo, Ohio, weighing in at 175 pounds, he is the TNA International Champion, Trey Miguel!
00:20:24Well, Trey Miguel is having a bit of a renaissance himself, becoming TNA International Champion.
00:20:32And it was last week, he was trying to offer some veteran advice to the young BDE who came up
00:20:39short in that number one contender tag team matchup.
00:20:42Trey Miguel and Rich Swann offering kind words, and they ran in to order form.
00:21:01And his tag team partners, Rich Swann and BDE!
00:21:10Rich Swann on the right, former TNA World Champion, on the left, Atlanta Zone, BDE, the YouTube sensation with roughly
00:21:191.5 million followers on YouTube.
00:21:23And growing.
00:21:26Absolutely dream come true for BDE to step foot in a TNA ring, of course, and now teaming with someone
00:21:33like Rich Swann.
00:21:34But they got a big task ahead of them tonight here on Impact.
00:21:39Oh!
00:21:44Oh!
00:21:47Oh!
00:21:48Oh!
00:21:49Oh!
00:21:51Oh!
00:21:51Oh!
00:21:53Oh!
00:21:53Oh!
00:21:53Oh!
00:21:54Oh!
00:21:55Oh!
00:22:02Oh!
00:22:04Oh!
00:22:05Oh!
00:22:06Oh!
00:22:11Oh!
00:22:12Oh!
00:22:13Oh!
00:22:15Oh!
00:22:15Oh!
00:22:17Oh!
00:22:18Oh!
00:22:19Oh!
00:22:19Oh!
00:22:19Oh!
00:22:20Oh!
00:22:20Oh!
00:22:22Oh!
00:22:27Oh!
00:22:30Oh!
00:22:31New look, and there's plenty of confidence in the eyes of Mustafa Ali,
00:22:35but what man came out of the casket?
00:22:39New look, you can feel it, new attitude, new everything,
00:22:42but we are kicking this off in exciting fashion here.
00:22:46Everybody throwing hands.
00:22:48The referee, Alice Lane, calling for the bell.
00:22:50This six-man tag team matchup is underway.
00:22:54As I was mentioning earlier, as Trey Miguel and Rich Swann
00:22:58trying to lift the spirits of BDE last week,
00:23:01it was the great hands with Tasha Steele and Agent Zero
00:23:05who accosted BDE and company,
00:23:09and that led to this matchup.
00:23:11Oh, my God.
00:23:11John Skyler just rammed BDE into the steel post.
00:23:15Order 4 is out for blood.
00:23:17And you have to imagine, not only after what happened last week,
00:23:21but Ali is leading his army into battle
00:23:24to reestablish themselves at the top.
00:23:27Oh, my God.
00:23:28The great hands just took out Trey Miguel.
00:23:34Seconds into this matchup and message sent by Mustafa Ali.
00:23:41The mantra of Order 4 has always been
00:23:44actions have consequences.
00:23:46It appears there are consequences for everyone in TNA Wrestling
00:23:50after what Ali suffered at the hands of Elijah.
00:23:53To your point, clearly coming out of that casket, a different man.
00:23:58I don't know if it's more focus, if it's more anger, more vitriol.
00:24:04Oh, my God.
00:24:05And Ali cut down BDE after a little flurry there in the corner by B.
00:24:11You can just feel the intensity radiating off Ali more than it ever has before.
00:24:18Quick tags made here by the great hands.
00:24:21John Skyler and Jason Hotch.
00:24:23This is Skyler, knee in the face, kick out by BDE.
00:24:27Skyler and Hotch, they got in the face of Trey Miguel, Swan, and BDE last week.
00:24:32The great hands believe they should have been in that four-way tag team matchup last week
00:24:37that ultimately yielded the system as the new number one contenders
00:24:40to the tag team champions, the Hardys.
00:24:42I mean, I don't disagree.
00:24:43They've been around and been established far longer than BDE and Swan as a team
00:24:48who also hadn't won a match to that point.
00:24:51I get we're trying to offer opportunities to people,
00:24:54but the great hands, they're starving.
00:24:57We got to feed them.
00:24:57I understand what you're saying, but Order 4.
00:24:59But on a second, BDE trying to surprise Order 4 in a kickout.
00:25:04Order 4 illegally got involved in the guitar team's basket match.
00:25:08I imagine management isn't too thrilled with them.
00:25:10Well, we invite you to head to TNAwrestling.com
00:25:13and get your tickets now for upcoming events in New Orleans, Louisiana,
00:25:17Cleveland, Ohio, and Syracuse, New York.
00:25:20Again, head to TNAwrestling.com.
00:25:22We're going to be live on TNA Plus on Friday, March 27th
00:25:26for sacrifice in New Orleans.
00:25:31And right now, Order 4 doing a great job of isolating BDE from his teammates.
00:25:38Hodge and Skyler, the teamwork.
00:25:40Oh!
00:25:42BDE starting to come alive here.
00:25:44Oh, look at that.
00:25:44There was a tag made by Ali.
00:25:46BDE, I don't know if he's aware of that tag.
00:25:48He will be.
00:25:49Double rolling net breaker by Order 4.
00:25:55Miguel, Swan, and BDE are in trouble against Order 4.
00:26:05Ali, look at this.
00:26:06Going for the cover.
00:26:07Trying to put BDE away here.
00:26:09And a kick out there from BDE.
00:26:11This six-man tag team matchup continues here in Atlanta.
00:26:14And ever since the jump, moment one of this matchup,
00:26:19we have seen Ali return to the ring here.
00:26:22Seemingly a different, more violent man.
00:26:25More touch and steals getting involved.
00:26:27Illegal contact by the referee's back.
00:26:30This is a power tag right now.
00:26:32Order 4 following the lead of Mustafa Ali.
00:26:41Now Ali focused in.
00:26:45Sending BDE into the Order 4 corner.
00:26:49Oh, it can't wait to the face.
00:26:51Ali has been downright nasty tonight.
00:26:54Lights out for BDE.
00:26:57The vibes are not good right now for BDE.
00:27:00Wouldn't you say?
00:27:02Oh, there are no vibes.
00:27:04There are no vibes.
00:27:05We're vibeless in the impact zone.
00:27:07Cover by Skyler.
00:27:09And another kick out by BDE.
00:27:11BDE was kind of beating himself up last week.
00:27:14He took the pinfall through the system
00:27:17in that four-way tag team matchup that we've talked about.
00:27:19Oh, wait a minute.
00:27:20BDE got the better of Skyler there.
00:27:22Looking for a cover and a kick out.
00:27:25And now, oh, big clothesline there by Skyler.
00:27:29Listen, you remember what it was like early on in your career.
00:27:32I'm sure you were in a similar position, struggling and trying to find your way.
00:27:36Well, yeah, but I was working my way through.
00:27:39I'm not going to get into the old head thing of like,
00:27:41this kid has a YouTube channel and just got invited to the dance.
00:27:44But it sometimes feels like that.
00:27:47So, yeah, he's going to have to learn things like this the hard way, the old-fashioned way.
00:27:52In comes Jason Hotch, who's got such a bright future in TNA Wrestling.
00:27:57All the ability in the world.
00:27:59I believe his mind, it seems to be Skyler and Steeles and Special Agent Zero.
00:28:04They've all been poisoned by Mustafa Ali.
00:28:06Oh, come on.
00:28:06And I'm sick of that sentiment.
00:28:08He's got a cover here.
00:28:10So, arm in the face by Hotch.
00:28:12BDE is still in it.
00:28:14Jason Hotch does have a bright future.
00:28:16But you know what?
00:28:17He has a bright present.
00:28:19He is ready and able to go right now, given the opportunity.
00:28:23I completely agree.
00:28:24I don't like the company he keeps, but I completely agree.
00:28:28Shoulders down.
00:28:29BDE trying to get the win here.
00:28:31BDE's got to make a tag as he gets cut down again by Order 4.
00:28:36I commend BDE trying to win the matchup.
00:28:38But he's in trouble.
00:28:39Shoots that.
00:28:40Hotch cannot end it.
00:28:42It's Jason Hotch who's trying to win the match here.
00:28:47Incredible toughness shown here by BDE.
00:28:49But to the points you were just alluding to, roughly 30 matches on the resume of BDE Professional Wrestling.
00:28:56He's been in the industry, active as a pro for a little over a year.
00:29:01He's learning on the fly.
00:29:03And he's got the reigning international champion.
00:29:05Trey Miguel, former TNA World Champion.
00:29:08And Rich Swann in his corner.
00:29:09Here to back him up.
00:29:11And to BDE's credit.
00:29:13He is staying in the dance.
00:29:15He is staying in the game here.
00:29:17Not going down without a fight.
00:29:19What a scene here at the Gateway Center Arena in Atlanta.
00:29:23What a reception we had as we were live on AMC here in Atlanta last week.
00:29:28Great night of action so far this evening.
00:29:31Woo!
00:29:34On the move, BDE.
00:29:35And he's got Hotch with the DDT.
00:29:38He spiked him into the canvas.
00:29:43I had a hard time catching.
00:29:46That was absolutely unreal.
00:29:47This is BDE's opportunity.
00:29:52A raucous six-man tag team matchup here in Atlanta.
00:29:57Woo!
00:29:58Oh, man!
00:30:00Tag team matchup!
00:30:01Atlanta!
00:30:01And we are back on TNA Thursday night at Best on AMC.
00:30:05And this has been an explosive six-man tag team matchup.
00:30:09Mustafa Ali is finally back here at TNA alongside of order four up against Rick Swann, BDE, and the international
00:30:17champion, Trey McGill.
00:30:20This match has been electric.
00:30:22It has been non-stop from the victory.
00:30:25He's got him!
00:30:27Ali got spiked!
00:30:28Swann driving on the headfirst into the mat.
00:30:31And they're with great hands to save the leader of order four.
00:30:35And once again, much like this matchup began, things starting to break down here.
00:30:42Albany is in.
00:30:44And Trey McGill lighting up Skyler and Hobbs with superkicks.
00:30:48Look at this.
00:30:49They're taken to the sky!
00:30:51Down in the great hands!
00:30:54This is total non-stop action!
00:30:57A look back in the ring.
00:30:58Swann in!
00:31:00Big time splash!
00:31:01Is that a net?
00:31:03Oh, he kicked it, too!
00:31:08Absolutely unreal.
00:31:09That is not the way Mustafa Ali wanted to return to the impact zone.
00:31:15Look at the height that Red Swann got on this splash.
00:31:19And it nearly put away Ali in his first match back since the guitar case casket match against Elijah.
00:31:30Ali now trying to find it!
00:31:32Oh, Ali going to the eyes of Swann.
00:31:35The referee sees it.
00:31:36Giving a warning now to Ali.
00:31:38Tag's made.
00:31:40In comes Skyler to meet Trey McGill, the international champion.
00:31:43Miguel ready to meet him.
00:31:46Oh!
00:31:47Trey McGill who came to the end of Jada Stone against Order of Four last week.
00:31:54They actually continue to walk out.
00:31:57Oh!
00:31:59The rolling Trey!
00:32:01Look at this.
00:32:02Miguel.
00:32:03He is not stopping.
00:32:04Float!
00:32:05No cover!
00:32:05Double stop right to the back of the net.
00:32:08Kills the cover.
00:32:08Great six emergency by Miguel!
00:32:11Skyler stays in it.
00:32:13Miguel nearly took out all of Order of Four there single-handedly.
00:32:17Miguel's got himself into the best shape of his life.
00:32:19He's got a ton of confidence as the TNA international champion.
00:32:23Here we go.
00:32:24Tasha steals again in this match.
00:32:27The mastermind of Order of Four.
00:32:29Wait!
00:32:29Wait!
00:32:30You see that?
00:32:30Yes!
00:32:31Jada Stone!
00:32:32Jada Stone!
00:32:35She has no business out here!
00:32:37Absolutely does after last week.
00:32:39Now she just got dropped.
00:32:41I hope she's happy.
00:32:44Dwayne McGill helped out Jada Stone last week against Order of Four.
00:32:47Look at this.
00:32:48Tasha steals is trying to find amongst the fans.
00:32:51Stone tracked down steals.
00:32:54Well, who's going to contain these two?
00:32:56Nobody!
00:32:59Oh, wait a second.
00:33:00There's Special Agent Zero of Order of Four.
00:33:03That hulking monster of all ways.
00:33:06Let me walk back inside the ring.
00:33:07Skyler just clobbered Miguel.
00:33:09Hold on!
00:33:10Give it up the match!
00:33:11Clip cutter!
00:33:13BD is up and look out!
00:33:16Hot chicken to Bray here!
00:33:19BD wants another.
00:33:21Oh, look at the crossbody.
00:33:22Look at the strength of Hodge.
00:33:24That's what I'm talking about.
00:33:27Go!
00:33:29Destroying BD.
00:33:33Action doesn't stop, though.
00:33:35Trey Miguel.
00:33:36Trevor and Sue Black Sam are the international champion.
00:33:42And he's not done yet.
00:33:45On the move.
00:33:46Oh, down goes Hodge!
00:33:51Miguel is on fire here.
00:33:53Oh, look out, look out.
00:33:54Oh, God.
00:33:55Must have all laid or subliterated Miguel.
00:34:00Oh!
00:34:01Come back there by Swann.
00:34:03Skyler, though.
00:34:05This is not...
00:34:06How do you keep going?
00:34:07Oh, this!
00:34:08Best of luck to our referee, Alice Lane.
00:34:11We can barely keep track.
00:34:15Miguel talks back inside.
00:34:17Skyler in pursuit.
00:34:18It is electric here in Atlanta.
00:34:22Sleep shot spear.
00:34:23He's won plenty of matches with...
00:34:25And now, Trey Miguel with shell shock.
00:34:29An ode to his mentor, Alex Shelley.
00:34:31There's the kick.
00:34:33Now trying to set off the...
00:34:34Set on the ring.
00:34:36Lightning spiral.
00:34:37Cover.
00:34:38Two, three...
00:34:40Miguel.
00:34:41Swann and BD pick up the win.
00:34:46Here are your winners.
00:34:48The team of Rich Swann, BDE,
00:34:51and the TNA International Champion,
00:34:55Trey Miguel!
00:34:58What a win for Miguel and company.
00:35:02That was not the way Mustafa Ali
00:35:05wanted to return to the ring here tonight.
00:35:09Take another look back here.
00:35:11The scorpion kick into this lightning spiral
00:35:14secured the victory for Trey Miguel.
00:35:19On the outside of the ring,
00:35:21Mustafa Ali eyeing Trey Miguel's
00:35:24TNA International Championship.
00:35:27And a look in the eye of Mustafa Ali.
00:35:31I don't know.
00:35:33That should not be underestimated.
00:35:38A message clearly set back
00:35:42at the international champion.
00:35:46Mustafa Ali did not get the results he wanted,
00:35:49but he sent the message
00:35:51he exactly wanted to say.
00:35:57We're right now with time

00:36:14but at this time,
00:36:15the hometown man

00:36:56Yeah, bring him
00:36:57to you number two.
00:36:59Let me tell you back.
00:37:02Santana, I was actually
00:37:03looking for you.
00:37:03I forgot to mention last week,
00:37:05if you so much as lay a finger
00:37:07on Steve Macklin,
00:37:08you're going to be stripped
00:37:09of your TNA World Championship.
00:37:10You couldn't be.
00:37:11How did I know
00:37:12this was going to happen?
00:37:13You know, I'm really starting
00:37:14to think, Daria,
00:37:15that you were literally
00:37:15just hired here
00:37:16to make people's lives
00:37:17and live in hell.
00:37:18You don't know the half of it?
00:37:21Since we're giving out
00:37:22stipulations,
00:37:24there's another stipulation
00:37:25you might want to know about.
00:37:27If McClain
00:37:27lays one finger
00:37:29on Santana now,
00:37:30not only is he going
00:37:31to be fired
00:37:32forever,
00:37:33he's going to be deleted
00:37:34from the archives
00:37:35at TNA History.
00:37:37You're unbelievable.
00:37:38You're just mad
00:37:38about last week.
00:37:39You know I did that
00:37:40because it's best
00:37:41for business.
00:37:42What I did is best
00:37:42for business too.
00:37:43I just said that.
00:37:44I just said that too.
00:37:48Yeah, let's go.
00:37:50Let's go.
00:37:55What's up, champ?
00:38:15This is ridiculous.
00:38:18I just won this title
00:38:20and everyone thinks
00:38:21they deserve a shot at it?
00:38:22Danny Luna,
00:38:24Tefa,
00:38:24Lei Yingli
00:38:26and now Indy Hartwell too?
00:38:28Babe,
00:38:29she just tried
00:38:29to call me out
00:38:30in front of everyone.
00:38:31Me!
00:38:32The champ!
00:38:33Relax, relax.
00:38:34That's what this title means.
00:38:36Everybody's coming for you.
00:38:37That's how it works.
00:38:39That is not okay.
00:38:41I should be praised,
00:38:43celebrated,
00:38:44at the very least
00:38:45respected.
00:38:45Right.
00:38:48Thanks.
00:38:49I got a plan.
00:38:50What do we do?
00:38:54You stay here

00:38:59Hey,
00:39:00you lost nerdy.

00:39:05acting like you belong
00:39:06in the same ring
00:39:07with my beautiful,
00:39:08exotic world champion.
00:39:09Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:39:10I said what I said,
00:39:11okay?
00:39:11I've beaten world champions
00:39:12before.
00:39:13What are you even doing here?
00:39:14Get out of here.
00:39:15Don't worry about
00:39:15cleaning your dirty glasses.
00:39:19Pineapples.
00:39:20Huh?
00:39:24What'd you-
00:39:40right now?
00:39:40Right now!
00:39:42Give me a doctor in here,
00:39:44please!
00:39:44Why not?
00:39:45A doctor!
00:39:46Hey, are you okay?
00:39:47Are you okay?
00:39:48Oh my God.
00:39:48He said he didn't get a doctor.
00:39:50He said he didn't get a doctor.
00:39:50He's a doctor.
00:39:51I just told him.
00:39:52He said, he said, he said,
00:39:53he said, he said, he said.
00:39:54What is happening?
00:39:54I know.
00:39:59Well, chaos continues to
00:40:01boil over in the knockout,
00:40:03Seguzion, but right now,
00:40:04we turn our attention to the man
00:40:07who was recently reinstated
00:40:09and rewarded with a world title match.
00:40:19Please welcome Steve McClain!
00:40:25You heard that right.
00:40:28After multiple attacks on the world champion,
00:40:30Mike Santana,
00:40:31and a completely unprovoked assault
00:40:34on my broadcast partner, Tom Hannafin,
00:40:36and Steve McClain has been not only reinstated,
00:40:38but given a title match in sacrifice.
00:40:40However, as we heard earlier,
00:40:43Steve McClain cannot touch Mike Santana,
00:40:46who you see in the back of your screen,
00:40:48or else Steve McClain is not only fired once again for good,
00:40:53but erased from company history forever.
00:40:56However, if Mike Santana reciprocates,
00:41:00and if he lays one hand on Steve McClain,
00:41:04Mike Santana will be stripped of the TNA world title.
00:41:22Good God, does it feel good to be back on Thursday Night Impact?
00:41:32It's like I never left!
00:41:34My credit!
00:41:37Now listen, listen.
00:41:39As per my re-instatement,
00:41:40I had to come out here
00:41:41and I had to issue an apology to Tom and all of you.
00:41:46Shut up!
00:41:47So as a man who is accountable for his actions,
00:41:50I'm going to do just that.
00:41:53So I prepared a statement.
00:42:03First, I want to thank Daria Ray.
00:42:07Daria, I truly believe you are the greatest leader this locker room has ever seen,
00:42:12and I can say that because I've seen a few,
00:42:16and during my time here at TNA.
00:42:20Unlike Santino Morella, who can't even keep his own family in order,
00:42:27and now Tom,
00:42:30this one's for you, old buddy.
00:42:33I'm sorry.
00:42:35I'm sorry that this is the way our friendship had to end,
00:42:39and I'm especially sorry that you put yourself in a position
00:42:42where you thought stepping up to me was a good idea.
00:42:46If you were more of a man,
00:42:49you would have taken that punch to the gut,
00:42:52you would have stood back up,
00:42:54and you would have realized exactly what I've been trying to tell you this whole time.
00:42:59But you're weak, Tom.
00:43:01You got a weak core, pal.
00:43:04So maybe next time you'll remember there's a reason
00:43:07I'm a former TNA World Champion,
00:43:10and soon to be two-time TNA World Champion,
00:43:13and you sit behind that commentary desk.
00:43:27Now that that's over,
00:43:28I find it funny that I've been the most talked about man in this company,
00:43:33and I haven't even worked here for a month.
00:43:36And now...
00:43:39Now I got a chance to become a two-time TNA World Champion.
00:43:48It's been a long time since I've been a world champion,
00:43:51and the last time I was,
00:43:53backstage politics is what took that from me,
00:43:56and I've been fighting to get back to it ever since.
00:44:00I've been fighting unselfishly without using my own personal life
00:44:05to gain the sympathy of each and every single one of you people.
00:44:14Speaking of selfish people...
00:44:17Hey, Mike Santana, TNA World Champion.
00:44:21What's going on, man?
00:44:24Yeah.
00:44:29Listen, I'm sorry I had to come to this, but...
00:44:32I saw an opportunity and I took it.
00:44:35And I wouldn't say that you would have done the same thing.
00:44:39And I knew that your ego would be what brought me back,
00:44:42and I used that.
00:44:43Just like you use your addiction
00:44:45to make each and every one of these people care about you.
00:44:51I'm not wrong.
00:45:08So maybe...
00:45:09Maybe I start filming my meetings at the VA,
00:45:12and I show all these people on this big Jumbotron,
00:45:14so they could start to feel sorry for me.
00:45:18Or maybe...
00:45:19I start to play voicemails from my dad,
00:45:22so they can hear how tragic my life is.
00:45:25But oh wait!
00:45:26I can't.
00:45:28Because like you, Mike, my dad is dead too.
00:45:34But you're lucky enough that you got the life you did with him,
00:45:38because me, I don't even remember what my dad's voice sounds like.
00:45:47And you keep saying that I'm knocking on death's door,
00:45:50and he's eventually going to answer Mike.
00:45:53Mike, I opened that door a long time ago
00:45:56when I volunteered for my country, and I've met death.
00:46:00And unlike you, I know what death really is.
00:46:05So yeah, like I've been playing you like a pawn,
00:46:08come sacrifice.
00:46:10This...
00:46:11This isn't just about that TNA world title.
00:46:18It's about the door that you opened, Mike.
00:46:21It's about the person you let out.
00:46:23The person that you can't control,
00:46:26and the people around the world are going to meet Mr. Mayhem.
00:46:30And Mike...
00:46:33Mayhem isn't just for you.
00:46:35It's for all.
00:46:56Semper,
00:46:57On the floor towards the end of it...
00:47:00Tell his man,
00:47:01for God!
00:47:06Everybody,
00:47:07at the far end of their face,
00:47:09let Myemowl...
00:47:24Mmm!!!非常ment

00:48:12This has been an eventful evening to say the least
00:48:15Money, money
00:48:24There's only one thing I ain't never seen
00:48:28Boy, I've seen a lot of things
00:48:30I've seen a lot of places
00:48:31Polycon can't see it together for one fall
00:48:34Introducing first
00:48:35From Pioneer City, Maryland
00:48:38Weighing in at 303 pounds
00:48:40A.J. Francis
00:48:44A.J. Francis
00:48:49A.J. Francis
00:49:10Do you know what I'm saying?
00:49:11How you feeling?
00:49:12Do you remember that?
00:49:13Frankie, I'm having a hard enough night
00:49:14Just give me a break, alright?
00:49:15We weren't even expecting to have you out here on commentary
00:49:18I know, I'm the gift that keeps on giving
00:49:19What can I say?
00:49:21Well, we know that Frankie Kazarian
00:49:23Is going to have a closed eye on this one again
00:49:25The King Speaks
00:49:26The best show in TNA history
00:49:29Unceremoniously interrupted by that wild brawl
00:49:31You were just trying to get to the soul of Elijah at one point
00:49:35Giving him valuable TV time
00:49:37My valuable TV time
00:49:38I graciously gave
00:49:39Right? Absolutely
00:49:54Ladies and gentlemen
00:49:56From the open roads to the bright lights
00:49:59He's the man with a song in his soul
00:50:02And fire in his veins
00:50:04The King of the Six String
00:50:07The Mystic Cowboy Prophet
00:50:09The Trifter
00:50:11Give it up for the one and only
00:50:16Elijah
00:50:19Last week, Elijah was the special guest on The King's Speech
00:50:24And Elijah wasn't playing into your style of interviewing, Frankie
00:50:28I don't know how special he was
00:50:30Unless, you know, he really appeals to that homeless caveman
00:50:34Cowboy demographic were always chasing
00:50:36But I gave him, like I said, valuable television time
00:50:40And he ignored me
00:50:41And he got what was coming to him
00:50:43But did he slip the lighting guy at 20?
00:50:45What was he trying to pull last week?
00:50:47I don't hang out with those people
00:50:49I only hang out with top guys
00:50:50Absolutely
00:50:51That was underneath talent
00:50:54Oh, either way
00:50:55As we've mentioned
00:50:56AJ Francis got into it over Atlanta
00:51:00And the hometown man's pride here
00:51:02Of course
00:51:02Claiming to be from Atlanta
00:51:04Broke out into the arena here
00:51:06Elijah
00:51:07Tried to run off AJ Francis
00:51:09After he threw the hometown man
00:51:11Into a pile of people
00:51:13At ringside, essentially
00:51:14He had it coming
00:51:15Let's be honest
00:51:16You know, it's been brought to my attention
00:51:17That in addition to my wrestling paycheck
00:51:19Which is substantial
00:51:20I'm going to be getting paid
00:51:21To do commentary
00:51:22Because I'm so good at it
00:51:23My only request was that I get paid
00:51:25Twice what you get to pay
00:51:27Get that?
00:51:27Thanks, Frankie
00:51:28Yep, you're welcome
00:51:29I'm glad that Mack would apologize
00:51:30You like a man
00:51:31That was a good apology
00:51:32Like a man
00:51:32Yeah
00:51:34Pathetic, Frankie
00:51:34It was pathetic
00:51:35But the man apology
00:51:36It takes a lot of courage
00:51:37To apologize
00:51:38Look at that
00:51:40AJ Francis
00:51:41Sent to the outside
00:51:42First time ever
00:51:43These two have gone one-on-one
00:51:44And they tangled
00:51:45Last summer
00:51:46That's impressive
00:51:47In a six-man tag team matchup
00:51:49They were opponents
00:51:50In the ill-fated match on NXT
00:51:52That ultimately saw
00:51:54Elijah tear his triceps
00:51:56Missed quite a bit of time
00:51:57No doubt about that
00:51:59I tore my tricep
00:52:00I was up two weeks
00:52:01And again
00:52:02I just want to remind people
00:52:03Wrestled in a Texas depth match
00:52:05With a broken hand
00:52:06Just in case you guys
00:52:08Didn't know
00:52:08Nine screws
00:52:09Absolutely
00:52:10And a warrior
00:52:12Ooh
00:52:12How's your little belly?
00:52:14Did it hurt when he hit you
00:52:15In your little belly there?
00:52:16Yeah
00:52:18Knock the wind out of you?
00:52:20No
00:52:21We don't like to talk about it
00:52:22I felt bad for you
00:52:23I felt like
00:52:23You shouldn't have been assaulted like that
00:52:25But look at
00:52:25You know
00:52:26Sometimes you get what's coming to you
00:52:28And look out
00:52:29AJ might get what's coming to him
00:52:31Oh
00:52:31Oh
00:52:31Elijah with a drive by this
00:52:34Two point at, kid
00:52:35Sending a message right to you, Frankie
00:52:37Focus on AJ
00:52:38Don't point at me, kid
00:52:39It's rude to point
00:52:41Giving the king a front row view
00:52:43I'm in his head
00:52:44Look at that
00:52:44I'm in his head
00:52:45I'm sitting here
00:52:45Doing my job very well
00:52:48And I'm in his head
00:52:48So I mean
00:52:49I'll ask you then
00:52:50Before you were rudely interrupted last week
00:52:52As
00:52:52Oh, look out
00:52:53What were you
00:52:54What were you trying to maybe
00:52:55Get out of Elijah
00:52:56What were opportunities
00:52:57Were you trying to give him
00:52:58That he could have taken advantage of
00:52:59As a broadcast journalist
00:53:00I was trying to get his thoughts
00:53:02On
00:53:03What that casket match
00:53:04Oh my god
00:53:05Wow
00:53:06A match like that
00:53:07Changes a man
00:53:08I know
00:53:08I've pioneered a lot of matches here
00:53:10And look
00:53:10I'll be the first to say
00:53:11That match was an instant classic
00:53:12No doubt about it
00:53:13Incredible match
00:53:14And
00:53:15I just wanted to see
00:53:16His thoughts on it
00:53:17Watch this one more time
00:53:18AJ Francis calls
00:53:19This
00:53:20The right hand of God
00:53:22That was all
00:53:23That was in there
00:53:23Like swimwear, baby
00:53:25Now Francis
00:53:26Going to work
00:53:27The 330 pound powerhouse
00:53:30That's in control of Elijah
00:53:32AJ Francis is great
00:53:33Just ask him
00:53:35He will not be afraid
00:53:36To tell you
00:53:37No doubt about that
00:53:38And
00:53:40Unfortunately for Elijah
00:53:41He is primed
00:53:42And ready
00:53:44To get a little taste
00:53:45Of something
00:53:45You and I like
00:53:46King
00:53:46Here's a little bit
00:53:47Of Tennessee whiskey
00:53:48For you
00:53:49There we go
00:53:50There we go
00:53:52I like that
00:53:53I like that, Matt
00:53:53That was good
00:53:54Hell yeah
00:53:55That was good
00:53:55That's why he's the best
00:53:57Colored man in the business
00:53:57No thanks to you
00:53:58Amen about that
00:53:59I am not in the mood
00:54:02Take a look back here
00:54:03Moments ago
00:54:03AJ Francis
00:54:06Boom
00:54:06The former NFL
00:54:07Defensive lineman
00:54:09Deceptive speed
00:54:10And agility
00:54:10AJ looks like
00:54:11He got his wrestling gear
00:54:12Off a dead circus land
00:54:13What's going on with this?
00:54:15Alright
00:54:15He's trying something
00:54:16Maybe he could use
00:54:17Some fashion advice
00:54:17From you Frankie
00:54:18It won't come cheap
00:54:19Trying to set up
00:54:20Elijah here
00:54:21Maybe for a powerbomb
00:54:22Center of the ring
00:54:23Elijah
00:54:25Tough
00:54:25Tough to get up
00:54:26Big and strong
00:54:27Do you want me to talk
00:54:28To Matt before you?
00:54:28I want to get here
00:54:29I'll talk to him for you
00:54:31Do you want protection?
00:54:32Elijah the weight
00:54:33Hold on
00:54:34I'm alive
00:54:35Whoa
00:54:35Look at the strength
00:54:36Of Elijah
00:54:37That is impressive
00:54:39Oh my
00:54:40Oh an Alabama slam
00:54:42That is a 300 plus pound man
00:54:45He just did that too
00:54:46That is impressive
00:54:47The entire ring just shook
00:54:49In front of us
00:54:50Tom off your bodyguard
00:54:53Elijah on the move
00:54:54And a big shot
00:54:55Right to the face
00:54:56Of AJ Francis
00:54:58Elijah starting to pummel away
00:55:00He's coming alive
00:55:01He can't let him come alive
00:55:02Elijah has plenty of confidence
00:55:04After putting Mustafa Ali away
00:55:06Weeks ago
00:55:07In the first ever
00:55:08Guitar case casket match
00:55:12Watch out
00:55:12The kind of match
00:55:14That puts somebody
00:55:15On the map
00:55:15As if he wasn't
00:55:16Only there
00:55:17Good night
00:55:18Big knee
00:55:19Hooked to the leg
00:55:20And a kick out
00:55:21We saw how that loss
00:55:22Effected the returning
00:55:23Mustafa Ali
00:55:24Earlier on tonight
00:55:25He came back
00:55:26At another level
00:55:27Didn't get the win
00:55:28He wanted
00:55:29But man
00:55:30Did he send a message
00:55:31To Trey Miguel
00:55:32And now it's
00:55:34Elijah is looking
00:55:34To send a message
00:55:35To AJ Francis
00:55:36Would you like me
00:55:37To be your bodyguard
00:55:38Tom
00:55:38I would like you
00:55:40To be my long lost pal
00:55:40Out of my life
00:55:41Forever
00:55:42You don't mean that
00:55:43You say that
00:55:44You don't mean that
00:55:45You're just
00:55:46You're speaking
00:55:46From your hurt
00:55:47Tom
00:55:49And somebody
00:55:50In this matchup
00:55:51Is about to get hurt
00:55:51Yeah
00:55:52As Fran
00:55:53Fighting up
00:55:53On the top rope
00:55:54Elijah managing
00:55:55To get some distance
00:55:56Though
00:55:57You can't let him
00:55:58Get this
00:55:58Hold on a second
00:56:00It might be time
00:56:01For AJ Francis
00:56:02Come on AJ
00:56:03Don't just stand there
00:56:04You can't let him
00:56:05Hit this
00:56:06It's a walk
00:56:06With Elijah
00:56:08Look at all the way
00:56:11Oh
00:56:11A destroyer
00:56:13By the drifter
00:56:14Are you kidding me
00:56:16That has to be it
00:56:17It's gotta be
00:56:19Oh my god
00:56:20AJ Francis kicked out
00:56:22The resilience
00:56:23You gotta give it to AJ
00:56:24That was a vicious move
00:56:26This is incredible
00:56:28The ruck
00:56:29Along the ropes
00:56:31And then watch this
00:56:32A drifter destroyer
00:56:35To the 300 plus pounder
00:56:36But AJ Francis
00:56:38Able to dig down deep
00:56:39And stay in this fight
00:56:41Get you a drink kid
00:56:42Get you
00:56:43Hey
00:56:43Time out
00:56:44Let him have a drink
00:56:44Idiot
00:56:45Oh
00:56:46AJ Francis taking a swing
00:56:48And Elijah there
00:56:49With that bottle of A game
00:56:51Elijah getting some hydration
00:56:53Oh
00:56:53Oh
00:56:54Oh
00:56:55The king did not like that
00:56:57Oh no

01:05:30He was not ready for that
01:05:32He was not expecting that

01:05:35And quite frankly
01:05:35He said
01:05:36I was a little intimidated

01:05:52He didn't want anyone
01:05:53To think
01:05:53This kid is just
01:05:54An entrance
01:05:55But I've seen him
01:05:56Work multiple times
01:05:58He has got

01:10:10But right now
01:10:12Right here
01:10:13Moose
01:10:14Begins his opportunity
01:10:16To take out the system
01:10:18One
01:10:19By one
01:10:37The following is an Atlanta street fight
01:11:12Introducing first
01:11:13ADC and Moose
01:11:15And Moose were violently
01:11:16Excommunicated
01:11:17From the system
01:11:18Moose wants to start
01:11:19With the man
01:11:20Who Edwards and Myers
01:11:21Handpicked
01:11:22To replace him
01:11:24Little did we know
01:11:25What Cedric Alexander
01:11:27Underhead going on
01:11:28In the shadows
01:11:28But now
01:11:29He may pay the price
01:11:30To take out the streets
01:11:32To take out the streets
01:11:49To take out the streets
01:11:49To take out the streets
01:11:49To take out the streets
01:11:49To take out the streets
01:11:50To take out the streets
01:11:51To take out the streets
01:11:51To take out the streets
01:11:52To take out the streets
01:11:52To take out the streets
01:11:54To take out the streets
01:11:56To take out the streets
01:12:00And his opponent, accompanied by Alicia Edwards, he's the face of the Franchise, Moose!
01:12:28Atlanta has been a second home to Moose. Last week he had plenty of support in the form of his
01:12:34former Atlanta Falcons teammates.
01:12:36He was drafted by the Falcons back in 2006, and enjoyed a successful NFL career, and has bridged it into
01:12:4510 consecutive years here in TNA Wrestling.
01:12:49He is a staple of this company.
01:12:51He is the face of the Franchise for a reason, and Tom, I hate to state the obvious, but conspicuous
01:12:58by their absence, the rest of the system, we will have, you know, have been banned from ringside.
01:13:05So this will truly be a one-on-one street fight.
01:13:10Directed per Santino Morella, Cedric Alexander is going to have to go it alone.
01:13:15There are no countouts, no disqualifications. First man of the game, pinfall inside the ring is your winner.
01:13:22Moose starting things off pretty quick here.
01:13:25Boom!
01:13:25Pinyur and Auggie now Moose setting up for a senton, crushing the chest of Cedric Alexander.
01:13:36This is just the beginning if it goes Moose's way.
01:13:41But at the same time, if Cedric Alexander can cut this off at the pass, stop Moose in his tracks,
01:13:48I don't know what that means for this mission of vengeance for Moose.
01:13:53Cedric Alexander trying to prove that the rest of the system made the correct decision,
01:13:58and you can imagine all the way that Cedric Alexander's life has changed ever since he joined their regime.
01:14:04Yeah, this is a gigantic opportunity for Cedric to sit at the top in one of the most powerful factions,
01:14:11powerful groups here in TNA.
01:14:13Cedric's been looking for opportunities like that for a long time.
01:14:17He ain't giving it up without a fight.
01:14:23Oh, Moose taking advantage of the environment here inside the Gateway Center Arena in Atlanta.
01:14:31Alexander trying to block.
01:14:35Oh, who's going to get the advantage?
01:14:37Oh, Alexander had gotten the better of Moose in a handful of matches in the lead-up to Moose's elimination
01:14:47from the system.
01:14:51Look at the strength of Cedric Alexander.
01:14:59Take another look at this.
01:15:01Moose wanted to suplex himself.
01:15:04Alexander then able to snap it off out here on the floor.
01:15:10Cedric Alexander taking opportunities now as a part of the system
01:15:16and happy to take that much more sizable direct deposit in the process.
01:15:22And now, Alexander looking for a couple of instruments of destruction.
01:15:30Yeah, the Moose is on, too.
01:15:35Alexander thought he had the drop on Moose.
01:15:37Oh, my God!
01:15:40Dueling chairs here on the ringside.
01:15:47Oh, and Alexander!
01:15:48Shot right to the midsection, but Moose responds with a steel chair.
01:15:52Doubles over Alexander and steel to the spine.
01:15:58Moose favored his lower back.
01:16:01He's dealt with injuries to that part in the past.
01:16:04This Atlanta street fight is just getting warmed up here.
01:16:08A Thursday night impact!
01:16:11Oh, Nancy!
01:16:22Moose is taking control of this Atlanta street fight.
01:16:27And now wandering over near the bell table.
01:16:30And Moose grabbing a trash can.
01:16:37Most big industrial size.
01:16:39Oh, rubber trash cans.
01:16:40I think they're announced to us to suffer to announce tonight.
01:16:44This one, I mean, we knew it was going to be wild.
01:16:46We knew it was going to go pretty much everywhere.
01:16:49Listen, I'm stressed to the gills beyond tonight.
01:16:52I know, I know.
01:16:53I can't take much more of this.
01:16:55This is the home.
01:16:56This is Bad Street USA.
01:16:58I'll have you remember.
01:17:05And Moose is pummeled Cedric with that chair.
01:17:08He can take a little bit of time here, but not too much.
01:17:12And now Moose grabbing a hold of a steel trash can.
01:17:20Moose has thrived in extreme style of matches like this throughout his career here at TNA.
01:17:27No doubt about it.
01:17:28Things like Monsters Ball, Hawkeye Orange, House of Fun matches.
01:17:34Moose happy to rise to the occasion.
01:17:37The brainchild of the TNA Hall of Famer.
01:17:39Raven resides right here in Atlanta.
01:17:41That's right.
01:17:43Oh, and Alexander disarming Moose.
01:17:46And that's what I meant by you couldn't give Cedric too much time to recover there.
01:17:54Alexander now driving Moose into the side of the ring.
01:18:01And the system banned from ringside for Santino Morella.
01:18:06Alexander is holding his own.
01:18:10No surprise there.
01:18:12Oh, and Alexander is a former champion, of course, in his own right.
01:18:19Welcome to make an impression here in TNA.
01:18:23And look at all.
01:18:26Alexander is not here to make the fans happy.
01:18:30This is about getting a win for the system.
01:18:36Now, oh, wait a second.
01:18:41Mocking Moose.
01:18:42Is Alexander, does he think it's Spear?
01:18:46Oh, wait a minute, and Alexander got caught in the trash can.
01:18:50What the hell?
01:18:56What in the hell is Moose planning now?
01:19:00Oh, God.
01:19:01Don't you remember a couple of years ago
01:19:02it was Sammy Callahan who had Moose like that?
01:19:06Moose hasn't forgotten.
01:19:08Turnabout is fair play.
01:19:12Is Moose the new death machine?
01:19:16At least...
01:19:16Oh!
01:19:22Moose broke the back of that chair on the trash can.
01:19:26Oh!
01:19:27Can only imagine the damage it's done to Cedric Alexander.
01:19:31Look at the chair.
01:19:32Look at how it's warped.
01:19:34Paddling, that made it to the...
01:19:35Busted the eardrums of him.
01:19:37And that concomitant is tube.
01:19:43Moose has firm control of this Atlanta street fight.
01:19:48Oh!
01:19:48Alexander a shot to the midsection.
01:19:51May have spoken too soon there.
01:19:54As Alexander looks to spoil Moose's plans.
01:19:58And do it!
01:20:00Ooh!
01:20:00For the system!
01:20:03Steel chair to the spine there by Cedric Alexander.
01:20:06And a PK.
01:20:08Moose is down.
01:20:10See you!
01:20:11See you!
01:20:12See you!
01:20:13See you!
01:20:14See you!
01:20:14See you!
01:20:16See you!
01:20:17And we are back here on TNA Thursday Night Impact on AMC.
01:20:22This is our main event.
01:20:24Moose vs. Cedric Alexander in an Atlanta street fight.
01:20:29Oh!
01:20:30And Moose has been in control for much of this matchup.
01:20:34But it was Cedric Alexander who threw off the break, was able to turn things around,
01:20:38and now might have Moose right where he wants him.
01:20:42Remember, Bruce Santino, Morale, the rest of the system is banned from ringside.
01:20:46The only way to win this matchup is via pinfall or submission in the center of the ring.
01:20:51There are no countouts, no disqualifications.
01:20:53Moose avoids disaster!
01:20:55Ooh!
01:20:56Very, very close there.
01:20:58Great timing from the face of the franchise.
01:21:00But you see also, he's been favoring that lower back since the beginning,
01:21:05since that suplex on the floor in the first half.
01:21:07Moose put right to the face.
01:21:08Hold on!
01:21:09Cedric Alexander goes to hell, courtesy of Moose!
01:21:13Is it enough?
01:21:15Cover!
01:21:16Alexander's standing!
01:21:23Moose's going to have to go back to the well.
01:21:26Into the pocketbook.
01:21:28But let's take another look.
01:21:29And Moose right off the top rope.
01:21:32The go-to-her-of-planting Cedric Alexander.
01:21:36Reminiscent of the TNA legend, TeeLo Brown, sky-high.
01:21:41Moose is bound to take out every last member of the new regime of the system.
01:21:46One-by-one!
01:21:48But Moose, a disaster!
01:21:50Going into the steal, stepped shoulder first.
01:21:53And the top of those stairs nearly exploded off the bottom.
01:21:58Moose is in a bad way here.
01:22:02Cedric Alexander was hand-picked by Eddie Edwards and Brian Myers
01:22:07to replace Moose
01:22:09because in the lead-up to the explosion of the old system,
01:22:13it was Alexander who had gotten the better of Moose in a handful of matches.
01:22:17And Alexander is showing you exactly why the system chose him for this role.
01:22:23Why he was chosen to take the place of Moose within the ranks.
01:22:41Oh my god, oh my god, and Alicia Edwards is in the protect Moose!
01:22:45She's got to be careful.
01:22:47I know she's no stranger to a hardcore war or two.
01:22:58And that might be a take for his move too!
01:23:01For Alexander!
01:23:02Exactly!
01:23:04Oh, and Moose with a pop kick!
01:23:09Oh, now a powerbomb to the apron where steel meets wood!
01:23:15Spine-shattering powerbomb!
01:23:22Moose is failing it here in this Atlanta street fight.
01:23:25He's still in plenty of pain, but he keeps moving forward.
01:23:30No, there's no way.
01:23:32Moose making powerbomb out here on the apron.
01:23:35The lower back, the damage that's been done to Moose's lower back!
01:23:39And now a low blow by Alexander!
01:23:43No disqualifications, anything goes!
01:23:49What is Cedric Alexander looking at?
01:23:51What is this?
01:23:55Oh god, not this!
01:23:56That trash can!
01:23:58Oh god, into the spine of Moose!
01:24:03Trash can stood vertically.
01:24:05The already injured back of Moose getting obliterated.
01:24:14Take another look at this.
01:24:16Look at the strength of Cedric Alexander
01:24:18jumping Moose onto the trash can.
01:24:22The cast of Tulsa King getting a great view
01:24:25of this absolute carnage out here.
01:24:30Cedric might have Moose exactly where he wants him.
01:24:35Cedric Alexander could stop this journey
01:24:38this mission Moose is on
01:24:40before it even begins.
01:24:44What a statement Cedric Alexander could make
01:24:47considering the rest of the system
01:24:49is banned from ringside.
01:24:50If Alexander could get the job done on his own
01:24:53imagine the confidence
01:24:55that Bronson, Myers, and Edwards
01:24:57would have in Alexander.
01:25:01Alexander
01:25:05once again
01:25:06not going to give these people
01:25:08what they want
01:25:09he's got his own designs.
01:25:14All of these steel chairs
01:25:15in the center of the ring
01:25:17the only place
01:25:18where this match
01:25:19can come to a decision.
01:25:23Moose laid out
01:25:25on a couple of those chairs
01:25:26Cedric Alexander
01:25:31Wait a second
01:25:32Hold on
01:25:32Moose was lying in wait
01:25:36Moose was waiting
01:25:37for an opportunity
01:25:41Now all dangerous territory here
01:25:44All the way up top
01:25:47Superplex into the chairs
01:25:52Good God
01:25:59Moose is looking for a cover
01:26:01Moose trying to end this
01:26:02The arms rigged across the chairs
01:26:05by Alexander
01:26:06still alive
01:26:09We got to take another look back
01:26:11at this from the very top
01:26:13Cedric all the way
01:26:15into those chairs
01:26:17Now it's his back
01:26:18that's been obliterated
01:26:24Alexander doubling over Moose
01:26:26Somehow Alexander
01:26:28trying to pick up the pace
01:26:31Oh!
01:26:32Fly center of the ring
01:26:34Cover!
01:26:35Can Alexander beat Moose?
01:26:37No!
01:26:38Just a two count
01:26:41Moose proving his resilience
01:26:46From the second row
01:26:47That was a spear by Moose
01:26:49Nearly cutting Alexander in half
01:26:52But wait a second
01:26:53Alexander
01:26:55Alexander wisely rolling outside of the ring
01:26:59The match can only end inside the ring
01:27:02Whether on instinct
01:27:04Or by decision
01:27:06Look at this
01:27:06Alexander off the ropes
01:27:08Court
01:27:08Out of mid-air
01:27:11And now Moose
01:27:16Gonna give Atlanta what it wants
01:27:22It's time for Moose
01:27:24to lay the lumber to the system
01:27:34Moose helped build the system
01:27:36into the dynasty that it is today
01:27:39He was excommunicated with malice months ago
01:27:44Tonight his first step towards revenge
01:27:49Meanwhile
01:27:50He has the wife of Eddie Edwards
01:27:53The man who now holds the reins
01:27:55Of this system
01:27:56He has Alicia Edwards
01:27:57In his corner
01:28:00Backing him up all the way
01:28:01Let's go!
01:28:04Oh wait a minute now
01:28:06Moose is thinking about another spear
01:28:07This time through the table
01:28:09To Alexander
01:28:12Ooh!
01:28:13Moose went into the steel chair
01:28:14That was set up earlier on
01:28:15In the matchup
01:28:16An opportunity for Alexander
01:28:18Look at the strength
01:28:20Brain buster!
01:28:21Is that enough?
01:28:23Moose kicked out at one!
01:28:24Moose kicked out at one!
01:28:26Where is he finding this?
01:28:29Moose!
01:28:39The Atlanta crowd firmly
01:28:41Zobaczmy, behind Moose.
01:28:48Oh, what a big hit by Moose.
01:28:51Look out!
01:28:53Spanieram to the table!
01:28:58Good night, Alexander!
01:29:01One, two, three!
01:29:03Button down! Three to go!
01:29:06Here is your winner, Moose!
01:29:11Moose!
01:29:13A message sent straight and emphatically to the heart of the system.
01:29:22Taking a look back here at the conclusion of this Atlanta street fight.
01:29:27Moose using that thick skull of his, and then the spear driving Alexander through the wood.
01:29:36The journey has just begun.
01:29:41But Moose has sent a message.
01:29:45Alexander's been taken out.
01:29:47Bronson, Myers, and Edwards are in the crosshairs of the face of the franchise.
01:29:54Moose!
01:29:55Moose!
01:29:56Moose!
01:29:57Go!
01:29:57Moose!
01:29:58Go!
01:29:58KONIEC
