TNA Impact Results / Highlights - Jan 30, 2025

[LionDen]

We look back at last week's first live show in 8 years.

In Ring:
Nic Nemeth opens the show and makes his way to the ring. Nemeth says Joe Hendry was the better man and won the championship. Ryan Nemeth starts yelling as he makes his way to the ring and he called Hendry a fraud. The brothers start talking and Nic is trying to calm Ryan down. Then First Class make their way to the ring. AJ Francis taunted Nic for losing the belt and bragged about signing a lucrative contract with TNA. They all carried on and then Santino Marella came out and says he will make a match between the Nick Nemeth and Ryan Nemeth vs. First Class tonight in the main event.

Backstage:
Gia Miller is interviewing Arianna Grace and in comes Tessa Blancbard who says that Grace was someone who had everything handed to her by her father, unlike her. Tessa grabbed the mic from Miller, kicks her out of screen and finishes off by herself carrying on.
-- Earlier today: WWE's NXT Core Jade was walking down the hall and in comes Xia Brookside yelling at her. They start grabbing at each other and a couple of people, who seem to have been standing right next to them breaks them up before even a button could be ripped off. Just seemed strange, made me giggle.


WWE's NXT Cora Jade defeated Hyan.

After the match:
Jade continued to beat on Hyan but out comes TNA Knockouts World Champion Masha Slamovich and ran to the ring as Jade decided to run out of the ring. As Jade went up the ramp, she and Slamovich stared at each other and had words.
-- Backstage: Gia Miller is backstage with WWE's NXT Wes Lee and Tyriek and Tyson. Wes Lee says the way that Wentz and Miguel are going after the NXT Tag Team Championship shows that they are not aligned.Lee says he is going after the NXT Championship and says he is going to take out Ace Austin tonight.


Backstage:
Ash and Heather by Elegance with the Concierge told Director of Authority Santino Marella that they were robbed at Genesis and said the wrong person got pinned. As the Concierge carries on, finally Marella says they would be in a Knockouts battle royal next week to determine a number one contender. Spitfire (Masha Slamovich & Killer Kelly) walked in and said they would like an opportunity as well.

Leon Slater defeated Brian Myers (w/ The System)
NOTE: Brass knuckles were put on Slater's hand when the ref was not looking to win by that final blow. Screencap inside.


Backstage:
Steph De Lander and Mance Warner and DDe Lander says she’s happy he and here and she won the Digital Media title in the divorce. Mance says they’re here and this is their gold and no one is stopping them. Suddenly Lander was attacked from behind by Sami Callihan saying he will kill him.

Backstage:
Frankie Kazarian approached Leon Slater backstage and gave him another opportunity to learn and Slater says he was not going to carry the trophy. The System walks in and offered to have Slater carry their bags which did not impress Slater and then the Hardy's walks in and said that Slater is on a different level. The System called the Hardy's washed up which they did not take kindly and they all yelled at each other. The Hardy's challenged The System to a match next week.

Crowd / In Ring:
Mance Warner and Sam Callihan are brawling in the crowd and beat each other up into the ring. Steph De Lander comes running down and slides the Digital Media belt to Warner, and Warner hit Callihan with it. Callihan started to get up but Warner caught Callihan with a running knee and sent him down to the mat. Warner and De Lander celebrate for which seemed like a long time and then kissed in the middle of the ring.

Backstage:
Steve Maclin asks Eric Young if he was going to trust Josh Alexander. Eric says he would have to trust him and then Maclin wished him luck but says he knows what's going to happen and wasn’t sticking around to see what would happen.


Mustafa Ali defeated Laredo Kid


Backstage:
Mustafa Ali says he started off his campaign with a victory. Mike Santana walks in and challenges him for disrespecting him last week but Ali says he just had a match but he had a supporter that would face Santana instead.


Eric Young and Josh Alexander vs. The Northern Armory (Judas Icarus & Travis Williams) ended ina No Contest.
NOTE: Alexander was in for the whole match before he finally tagged Young and then Young punched Alexander. Alexander and the Northern Armory attack Alexander and so referee calls for the bell.

After the match:
Young finished off Alexander with a leaping pile driver.


WWE's NXT Wes Lee defeated Ace Austin.
NOTE: During the match, the crowd were chanting “NXT! NXT” but then a “TNA! TNA!” chant got louder. Amusing.

After the match:
Wes Lee, Tyson and Tyriek are in the ring celebrating and then start to beat on Austin as The Rascals come running to the ring and Lee, Tyson and Tyriek scurry out of the ring.

A commercial airs for TNA at Full Sail University.
