00:00It's tag team match plays out here tonight.
00:04Falling tag team match is scheduled for one fall.
00:08Introducing first, representing Birthright, the team of Ariana Grace and Channing Stax, Lorenzo!
00:20Tonight, Santina Morella has to step into the ring with his own daughter and his soon-to-be son-in
00:27-law with Indi Hartwell at his side.
00:29And joining us on commentary for this matchup for the order of Derriere is the former TNA World Champion, Frankie
00:36Kazarian.
00:37Not since, my man, Jose Canseco is the green and yellow. Looks so good. How are you, my man?
00:41Fantastic as always, King.
00:43Always knew you were a brown noser.
00:44Pleasure to see you, my friend.
00:45Great to have you.
00:46Good to be back.
00:47What insight are you going to provide in terms of good family affairs?
00:51Only the best insight, Tom. Only the best.
00:54Great.
01:04And their opponent, first, from Melbourne, Australia, Indi Hartwell!
01:13We heard the comments from Elena Black moments ago disparaging Indi Hartwell, saying she's just, quote, kissing up to the
01:20boss.
01:21Hartwell has become close friends with Santina Morella.
01:25That's not suspicious at all, when a talent gets really friendly with the boss all of a sudden.
01:30Kazarian's sitting right here.
01:34And her tag team partner from Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.
01:38He is the TNA Director of Authority, Santino Morella!
01:51Hold on, Tom.
01:51There's a big difference between palming around and running into women's locker rooms and making business decisions that are best
01:58for the company,
01:58like having Frankie Kazarian represented everywhere we can.
02:02Am I right, King?
02:02Sell them wrong and right again, Matt, my friend.
02:05Obviously, you know that that circumstance with the locker room was perpetrated and instigated by Ariana Grace.
02:12You're defending a PB, Tom.
02:13I'm not, because it was thrown out by TNA management.
02:16I understand what you're trying to do.
02:17I will not bleed out for that punt, by the way.
02:20We got set for this matchup.
02:22Listen, Frankie, all kidding aside, you're a parent.
02:24Could you possibly imagine stepping into a matchup where you had to face your son, Rebel, for instance?
02:31I'm capable of a lot of things, but I honestly don't know if I could do that.
02:35This one's going to tug at the old heartstrings, even for someone with a bit of a black heart like
02:41me, my friend.
02:43You do have a black heart.
02:44You'd be shocked that there was one there.
02:46Come on.
02:47Oh, come on.
02:48You see, you start with the insults.
02:49It's the truth.
02:50I try to get us a come on.
02:51Bray Walt, sincerely, how does Santino navigate this?
02:55Look, he better, if he wants to punch and knock out stacks, he better do it quick and take care
03:00of that business.
03:00Because to your point, I don't think he's going to have the heart to take out his own daughter.
03:07Plus, he's not that smart if you've got that stupid leg tattoo.
03:10Amen.
03:12Is it good to have a real king in Sacramento?
03:14Nothing just frauds that are typically basketball?
03:16Yes.
03:17Yes, he does.
03:18Yes, he does.
03:19Yes, he does.
03:20But here's the other thing.
03:21You know what else, Frankie Kazarian, I think you can relate to this matchup.
03:24We've got a beautiful couple over here.
03:26Frankie, TNA legend, married to a TNA knockouts legend.
03:30All the famer.
03:31Absolutely.
03:32He knows that dynamic and how strong that bond is.
03:35Yeah, it's, you know, having a spouse in the business is such a plus for Ariana and Stax.
03:44I think it's going to work to their favor.
03:46Look at this.
03:47Santino can't bring himself to do anything.
03:49I don't blame him.
03:49This is the impossible situation.
03:51Ariana knows she's putting him in.
03:53Santino wants to get his hands on Stax.
03:55And Anthony Hartwell more than happy to go after Ariana Grace.
04:00Didn't even tag in.
04:01What a savage.
04:02That's right.
04:03I think Andy Hartwell's a criminal record.
04:05Is that right?
04:05Sounds like she's from Australia.
04:07Oh, gosh.
04:08That's where most criminals live.
04:10That's right.
04:10Stax jumping Santino from behind.
04:13When these two went one-on-one recently on impact, it was clear Santino was running circles around Stax.
04:18But until Ariana got involved, that element where they were cheating, that helped Stax defeat Santino.
04:25We're going in circles right now, though.
04:27Stax is standing tall here.
04:30Oh, come on.
04:31I like that.
04:32I think you learned that watching Breaking Zaria.
04:34It's not, yeah.
04:36The kid has good taste.
04:38Next tag team match here in Sacramento, California.
04:40We invite you to head to TNAwrestling.com for complete ticket information regarding our upcoming events in Denver, Colorado.
04:47And, of course, three weeks from June 28th, live on pay-per-view in TNA+, in Boston, Massachusetts.
04:54It's slam anniversary.
04:56And that night, we know it's the return of Ultimate X, where the X Division title's on the line.
05:02Santino.
05:03Ultimate X.
05:03Speaking of Ultimate X, you do realize that match exists because of me.
05:08That's true.
05:08That match was created because of me.
05:11I've competed in more of those matches than anybody currently in the company.
05:15That match is Frankie Kazarian's match.
05:18That's true.
05:19Let's draw attention to Santino choking the life out of his future son-in-law here.
05:24That's right.
05:24One of the many reasons Kazarian is the king here, but Santino trying to literally squeeze the life out of
05:31his future son-in-law here.
05:32Santino might get the win right here.
05:34Let's be honest.
05:35There's probably every father has wanted to do that to his son-in-law at least once.
05:38I mean, that's a valid point.
05:40Tom, would you please stop squeezing my leg under the desk?
05:42That's very inappropriate.
05:43That's not what's happening.
05:45Off the move.
05:46Stacks taking down Santino to complete my point about Ultimate X at Slammiversary.
05:51It will be Cedric Alexander defending.
05:53Leon Slater's part of the field as well.
05:56Right now, this mixed tag team matchup is just getting started.
05:59Can Santino and Hartwell get back in it on impact?
06:02Hold the tag room.
06:04Like that.
06:05Like that.
06:06And in this mixed tag team matchup, a couple of Ariana Grace and Stacks having the advantage
06:14with Santino Morella finding the fire within here.
06:17You know, don't let, you know, Santino's jocular weight for you.
06:20He can go.
06:22Bell to bell, he can go.
06:24We talked about that a little bit last week in his one-on-one match with Stacks.
06:27Santino can't take it away from him.
06:30Trains martial arts, keeps himself in great shape in his off time, even in the long distance
06:34between matches that he often has.
06:36Deceptively athletic, deceptively strong, and a great wrestler.
06:39It just, he happens to be one of the biggest-
06:41Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Santino Morella going for the armbar here,
06:45and there's his daughter, Ariana Grace, breaking it up.
06:48Good, I like that.
06:49Take that, Dad.
06:51Send me to bed without dinner.
06:53Give him a mark.
06:55Oh, now Hartwell getting involved, going after Grace.
06:59He's getting ugly.
07:01They're going to be in there, they can.
07:02Look at this go now.
07:05Grace and Stacks turning everything around here.
07:11How does he know?
07:12On the move.
07:13Oh, Hartwell and Santino.
07:15Great teamwork.
07:16Never works.
07:18What would you know about a great teamwork?
07:20Well, I just happen to be a player of one of the greatest tactics in history this country.
07:24Right, but in the last few years, you've stabbed everybody in the back that you've ever met.
07:27Hey, I'm on team Frankie Kazarian.
07:29That's very cool.
07:30And I am too.
07:31I am too, baby.
07:32You are, yeah.
07:33Kiss ass.
07:35Look at this.
07:36Team Hartwell and Morella.
07:39Ranting down blows here.
07:45Tom, when did you get so mean-spirited?
07:46It's always been this.
07:48Is this it?
07:49Is this it?
07:49It's been a fight all these years?
07:51Yeah, he's getting valent pretty good anymore.
07:53It's very cranky.
07:54Dealing with this version of you the last two years has been insufferable.
07:57Give me an awesome one.
07:58I think he's been into the fight.
07:59Meanwhile, Santino Morella has done suffering at the hands of Stax and his own daughter putting his hands on his
08:05future son-in-law.
08:07Back elbow there by Stax, however.
08:13Now an errant shot there.
08:15Absolutely the aggression in Stax.
08:21He's got a chance for a re-want the Cobra here in Sacramento.
08:25That doesn't mean what you think it means.
08:26Yeah.
08:28Idiots.
08:29Especially out here.
08:32You have to ask.
08:33The second one was a dunk.
08:35The fact that this place represents this great state.
08:37This is the bad part.
08:38Where Frankie's room is the good part of him.
08:40Exactly.
08:42Stax, I think he just ticked off.
08:44Santino Morella.
08:48Well, judo throw.
08:49You're talking about his martial arts background.
08:51Look at that.
08:52Look at that.
08:52He's got his back.
08:53He's got his back.
08:54Go over the rear naked turn.
08:55Trying to grapevine the body.
08:56I'm telling you, he's dangerous.
08:58When you get on the ground, he's hard to defeat.
09:01That grappling ability.
09:03Cinching in tight there.
09:05Santino Morella.
09:08Watch out for Indy Hartwell.
09:09She might have a boot knife.
09:10Did she check before the match?
09:12I didn't.
09:12I don't think so.
09:13Santino Morella trying to put Stax.
09:15Stax to sleep.
09:17Referee taking on Stax.
09:20Is Stax out?
09:22Oh, Ariana Grace saving her fiance.
09:25Saving the match.
09:27I've got to give it to Ariana Grace.
09:29What a savvy move that was.
09:30Great teamwork.
09:32That kind of rapport that only two that share a relationship like that can have.
09:37Holy, we have the TNA Hall of Famer, Tracy Brooks here.
09:41That was great.
09:43We've got the future Hall of Famer.
09:45She's not a big fan of you.
09:46She won't let me tell you that.
09:47She's too nice.
09:48She doesn't have the heart to tell you, but she's not a big fan of you.
09:50Matt, she likes you.
09:51Oh, that's sweet.
09:52She's the best.
09:53Nothing left.
10:20Santino in trouble right now.
10:24It's like a big fan of Stax's own daughter, Ariana, but his soon-to-be son-in-law, Stax, missing
10:30there.
10:30I like the Stax guy, but he's pandering a little too much right there.
10:33The former TNA World Champion, Frankie Kazarian, was put on commentary by Daria Ray.
10:40Offering his invaluable insight.
10:42Daria Ray, who's been doing a fine job in her role thus far.
10:47Randy Hartwell, who would argue otherwise.
10:50Remember, it was Daria Ray, Stax, and Ariana who tried to get Santino and Hartwell suspended permanently from this company.
10:58There's a copper off the spine buster.
11:00There it is.
11:01There's a kick out by Grace.
11:02There's the boot knife.
11:03There's no boot knife, Frankie.
11:05I saw the shape of it.
11:06You see?
11:08We need to start checking these people before the matches like we used to back in the 80s.
11:12Andy Hartwell.
11:14Oh, look at these Stax.
11:16Oh, Stax?
11:18That's made a mistake.
11:19Her shoelace was untied.
11:20He was trying to do her offense.
11:22Oh!
11:22That's the thanks he gets.
11:25Look at Zorka.
11:25That should count as small joint manipulation.
11:28Oh!
11:29Face first into the knee.
11:31Grace going after Hartwell here in the corner.
11:34She has that coming.
11:36Fantastic aggression there from Ariana Grace.
11:39That's the side.
11:40Let's not forget of Ariana Grace that won her the Knockouts World Title.
11:44Spinning neck breaker.
11:45It's the cover by Ariana.
11:47Shoulders down.
11:48I'll tell you this.
11:49She gets that fiery temper from her old man.
11:52That's true.
11:52A lot more in common than we think these days.
11:55Speaking of the Knockouts World Championship still to come this evening, the reigning TNA Knockouts World Champion,
12:01Lei Ying Li, has a peculiar matchup, a non-title match against Mr. Elegance.
12:07Also, we are scheduled to hear from the number one contender to the TNA World Championship, Eric Young.
12:12And in our main event, it's the Righteous up against the Hardys in the Wicked Garden.
12:19Frank, do you have any idea what the Wicked Garden is?
12:23I've heard rumblings, I've seen things, and it is going to be a spectacular kickout.
12:30Like, one of those matches that's going to probably become synonymous with this company.
12:34And I can probably say this, it's probably going to be very violent.
12:37What version of the Hardys do you think we get?
12:40I think we need, you know exactly what version we need.
12:43We need the guys from the broken universe, the broken realm.
12:47We don't need regular Matt and regular Jeff.
12:50They need to dig deep to play on that field that the Righteous are playing on.
12:54Talking about digging deep, Indy Harwell's got to dig down very deep to get a tag,
12:58a much-needed tag to Santino Morella, who's fired up and wants in on this matchup.
13:09Now Gray's trying to get Hartwell up on the shoulders there.
13:11It's made me think about Gray Slam.
13:16Oh, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it.
13:18Oh, Hartwell and Gray's a rough collision center on the ring.
13:22Those were live rounds.
13:25Nasty collision there.
13:28Indy Harwell has an opportunity now.
13:30This is what she's needed.
13:33And a tag made.
13:35Santino to meet Stax.
13:38This is what Santino's wanted for so long.
13:41The chance to get his hands on Stax.
13:45Firing up here.
13:47Of course, these idiots here love it.
13:50Oh, wait a second.
13:51That disgusting disqualification.
13:54Sock puppet Cobra.
13:56Good, good.
13:57All right.
13:58And a Gray's taking away the Cobra.
14:00Stupid sock puppet.
14:03This is going to cost him.
14:06Oh, turnabout's fair play.
14:09Hey, what do you think about this, Tom?
14:12Oriana Gray is going to use the Cobra on her own fiancée.
14:17No.
14:18You dummy.
14:19Not like this.
14:20That's heartbreaking.
14:22Hey, the criminal has the sock.
14:24No, no, no.
14:25She stole it.
14:26That doesn't belong to her.
14:28Why is it?
14:30He bought a spare.
14:32Of course.
14:33He has two feet.
14:34He needs two socks.
14:35What else?
14:35He's stuffing it in there.
14:39This is untoward here.
14:43Oh, gosh.
14:45Oh, come on.
14:46Double Cobra.
14:48Double Cobra.
14:53Here are your winners.
14:56The team of Indy Hartwell and Santino Marrera.
15:05An absolutely tragic ending for Ariana Grace and Stax.
15:13The Cobra is not just a mediocre Stallone movie anymore, folks.
15:17Oh, Ariana Grace stinging her fiancée with a Cobra inadvertently, and then a double Cobra
15:25to the happy couple.
15:27Holding hands to the very end, though.
15:29That's true love, despite this hideous outcome.
15:33The Cobra is not just a bad guy.
15:34It's not just a bad guy.
15:34It's not just a bad guy.
15:34It's not just a bad guy.
15:34It's not just a bad guy.
15:34It's not just a bad guy.
